Sulfones Q 0600Enantiodivergent, Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of γ-Amino Vinyl Sulfones.-A short and efficient four-step synthesis of γ-amino vinyl sulfones (VI) is presented, starting from readily available, highly enantiopure anti-3-aminoalkane-1,2-diols (I).The method involves Mitsunobu cyclization of the diols (I), followed by regio-and stereoselective epoxide ring opening with various thiols or thiolates. Oxidation of the obtained sulfides (IV) to sulfones (V) is smoothly achieved with MCPBA. D… Show more

This compound was prepared according to the general procedure using Cbz-L-phenylalanine (1b, a) 134 mg, 0.9 mmol, b) 4.50 g, 15 mmol, 3.00 equiv) and trans-1,2-bis-(phenylsulfonyl)ethylene ((a) 93 mg, 0.3 mmol, (b) 1.50 g, 5 mmol, 1.00 equiv).…”
The synthesis of vinyl sulfones and (α,β-unsaturated) nitriles from carboxylic acids was realized through oxidative decarboxylation with 1,4-dicyanoanthracene as an organic photoredox catalyst. Various types of C-radicals are generated and used to construct three different classes of potential covalent protease inhibitors. The procedure is functional group tolerant and applicable to natural products and druglike scaffolds. It may serve for the rapid construction of screening candidates as demonstrated by a three-step synthesis of the known protease inhibitor K11777.

We report the design, synthesis, X-ray structural studies, and biological evaluation of a novel series of HIV-1 protease inhibitors. We designed a variety of functionalized biphenyl derivatives to make enhanced van der Waals interactions in the S1 subsite of HIV-1 protease. These biphenyl derivatives were conveniently synthesized using a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction as the key step. We examined the potential of these functionalized biphenyl-derived P1 ligands in combination with 3-(S)-tetrahydrofuranyl urethane and bis-tetrahydrofuranyl urethane as the P2 ligands. Inhibitor 21e, with a 2-methoxy-1, 1’-biphenyl derivative as P1 ligand and bis-THF as the P2 ligand, displayed the most potent enzyme inhibitory and antiviral activity. This inhibitor also exhibited potent activity against a panel of multidrug-resistant HIV-1 variants. A high resolution X-ray crystal structure of related Boc-derivative 17a-bound HIV-1 protease provided important molecular insight into the ligand-binding site interactions of the biphenyl core in the S1 subsite of HIV-1 protease.
“…We further extended the above mentioned synthetic strategy to synthesize γ-phenyl-γ-amino vinyl sulfone 6 . So far, there is only one synthetic procedure reported in the literature for the synthesis of γ-phenyl-γ-amino vinyl sulfone 6 in eight steps by Picó et al employing sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of cinnamyl alcohol . We synthesized γ-phenyl-γ-amino vinyl sulfone 6 in four steps starting from commercially available (±)-2-phenylglycinol 14 .…”
Racemic
and enantioselective syntheses of γ-phenyl-γ-amino
vinyl phosphonates and sulfones have been achieved using Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons
olefination of trityl protected α-phenyl-α-amino aldehydes
with tetraethyl methylenediphosphonate and diethyl ((phenylsulfonyl)methyl)phosphonate,
respectively, without any racemization. The present strategy has also
been successfully applied to the synthesis of peptidyl vinyl phosphonate
and peptidyl vinyl sulfone derivatives as potential cysteine protease
inhibitors of Chagas disease, K11002, with 100% de. The developed
synthetic protocol was further utilized to synthesize hybrid molecules
consisting of artemisinin as an inhibitor of major cysteine protease
falcipain-2 present in the food vacuole of the malarial parasite.
The synthesized artemisinin–dipeptidyl vinyl sulfone hybrid
compounds showed effective in vitro inhibition of
falcipain-2 and potent parasiticidal efficacies against Plasmodium falciparum in nanomolar ranges. Overall,
the developed synthetic protocol could be effectively utilized to
design cysteine protease inhibitors not only as novel antimalarial
compounds but also to be involved in other life-threatening diseases.
