摘要:
Non-natural amino acids such as 2-alkylated amino acids allow for the synthesis of a wider variety of peptidal and non-peptidal pharmaceutically active agents. In one embodiment, the present invention provides methods of preparing 2-alkylcysteine derivatives. In another embodiment, the method comprises forming a 2-alkylcysteine derivative from a cysteine derivative in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst. In particular, the present invention provides methods for preparing 2-methylcysteine derivatives. The present invention also discloses a method of preparing a class of iron chelating agents related to desferrithiocin, all of which contain a thiazoline ring. In one aspect, an aryl nitrile or imidate is condensed with cysteine or a 2-alkyl cysteine. The present invention also relates to the preparation of 4,5-dihydro-2-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-4-alkyl-thiazole-4-carboxylic acids, such as 4,5-dihydro-2-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-4-methyl-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid.

A useful and efficient method of preparing an alkylated thiazoline carboxylic acid, or a derivative thereof, comprises coupling a substituted aryl nitrile such as, for example, 2,4-dimethoxybenzonitrile or 4-methoxybenzonitrile, with a cysteine ester to form a substituted thiazoline carboxylic acid ester; optionally hydrolyzing the substituted thiazoline carboxylic acid ester to form a substituted thiazoline carboxylic acid; optionally, protecting the carboxyl group; alkylating the thiazoline ring at the 4-carbon position, as indicated in Structural Formula (I), with a compound of the formula R1-L, wherein R1 is as defined above and L is a leaving group, in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst; and, optionally, deprotecting the carboxyl group.In one embodiment of the present invention, a cinchona-alkaloid derived phase transfer catalyst is used to alkylate a protected substituted thiazoline carboxylic acid.

There is a significant demand for organic nitriles, based on their versatility in reactions. Compounds prepared from nitriles have properties including superoxide inhibition, ferrielectric liquid crystal dopant, antipicornaviral agents, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-asthma agents, and fibringoen antagonists. The present invention discloses a facile synthesis for 2,4-dihydroxybenzonitrile, and ethers and diethers thereof, from 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde or 2,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde. The present invention also discloses a method of preparing a class of iron chelating agents related to desferrithiocin, all of which contain a thiazoline ring. In this method, 2,4-dihydroxybenzonitrile is condensed with (S)-2-methylcysteine.

摘要:
A method of preparing a 2-alkyl amino acid involves the aziridination of an alkylacrylate and the opening of the aziridine ring by addition of a side chain. This method can result in the preparation of enantiomeric excess of a 2-alkyl amino acid. The invention also discloses a method of preparing a class of iron chelating agents related to desferrithiocin, all of which contain a thiazoline ring. In this method, an aryl nitrile or imidate is condensed with cysteine, a 2-alkyl cysteine, or a cysteine ester.
