https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ca-170.html We describe the synthesis of Xyzidepsin, a depsipeptidic analogue of HDAC inhibitor Romidepsin (FK228), using a solid-phase strategy. Our latent thioester solid-phase linker was synthesized in 92% yield (three steps). Chemoselective conditions unmasked the thioester functionality and cyclized the depsipeptidic macrocycle. An IC50 value of 0.50 μM ± 0.05 was obtained for U937 cells. This synthetic route, well-suited to SAR, represents a generalizable route toward all manner of analogues, including structures with acidic and basic amino acids.Donor-acceptor cyclopropanes substituted with 3,3-dialkyltriazenyl groups are described herein. The strong electron-donating character of the triazene renders the cyclopropanes highly reactive, allowing for catalyst-free ring-opening reactions with methanol and tetracyanoethylene under mild conditions. The triazene-substituted cyclopropanes could also be used as substrates in Lewis acid catalyzed (3 + 2) annulations with silyl enol ethers.5-Cyanoimidazole was identified as an inexpensive ligand for nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile couplings by screening a diverse set of pharmaceutical compound library. A strategic screening approach led to the discovery of this novel ligand, which was successfully applied in the preparation of various alkylated arene products with good to high yields. Furthermore, the properties of this ligand allowed expanding the scope of reductive couplings to challenging substrates, such as sterically hindered neopentyl halides, which are known to generate motifs that are prevalent in biologically active molecules.Novel and efficient base-mediated N-alkylation and amidation of amidines with alcohols have been developed, which can be carried out in one-pot reaction conditions, which allows for the synthesis of a wide range of N-alkyl amines and free amides in good to excellent yields with high atom economy. In contrast to borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotrans
