Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical synthesis, and in particular relates to a new method for preparing a sulfur-containing marine natural product, Sunshinamide. Background Art
[0002] According to records, the ocean covers 70% of the earth's surface, and marine species account for about 50% of the total global biodiversity. At present, more than 1 million species of marine invertebrates and more than 25,000 species of fish have been discovered, and more than 30,000 natural active molecules have been isolated from marine organisms [Mar. Drugs 2018, 16, 41]. Because marine organisms live in a special environment of high salt, high pressure, low oxygen, low temperature and lack of sunlight, compared with natural products from land, marine natural products often show different structures or unique pharmacological activities. In recent years, more and more pharmacological studies have shown that secondary metabolites of marine organisms may have unique mechanisms of action in antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic, analgesic and anticancer activities, and it is expected that marine drugs with novel mechanisms of action will be developed, which has attracted more and more interest from scientists. As of 2021, about 49 marine natural products or their derivatives have been approved for marketing or entered clinical trials worldwide, and 11 marine drugs have been approved by European and American drug regulatory authorities, of which 4 are listed as anticancer drugs.
[0003] In 2018, Piel's research team discovered the marine spirochete Gynuella sunshinyii YC6258 from the Gram-negative bacteria of the halophilic plant moss rhizomes based on the identification method of genome sequencing. Through bioengineering methods, they produced and isolated multiple natural products, one of which is the disulfide-bonded cyclic dipeptide Sunshinamide (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2018, 57, 14519–14523). Its structural characteristics are: it contains a 3-hydroxydecanoic acid side chain structural unit, a 13-membered cyclic peptide lipid structure, and a bridge ring molecule containing two adjacent cysteines bridged by a disulfide bond. This compound has strong cytotoxic activity against HeLa cells, IC 50 The value is 0.59μM, which is a novel anti-tumor lead.
[0004] In 2020, Goswami's research team reported its total synthesis method for the first time (Org.Lett.2020,22,1188-1192), determined its absolute stereoconfiguration, and evaluated its cytotoxicity on different human cancerous and non-cancerous cell lines. The results suggested that Sunshinamide is a new marine natural product with anti-tumor activity worthy of study.
[0005] In the synthetic method of Goswami's research team (Picture 2 ), firstly, octanal and chiral auxiliary (R)-1-(4-benzyl-2-thiothiazolidin-3-yl)ethanone were used to generate aldol diastereoisomers (dr=7:3) with 70% yield and stereoselectivity under TiCl4 / DIPEA low temperature conditions. The two diastereomers could be separated by silica gel column chromatography, and the absolute configurations of the two diastereomers (5a and 5b) were determined by the Mosher ester method, and then 5a with the desired configuration was further converted into the key intermediate 7a. Next, dipeptide compound 9 was obtained from L-cysteine and D-phenylalanine using EDCI / HOBT / DIPEA as condensing agents with a yield of 86%. After removing the Fmoc protecting group of 9 with an organic base, it was condensed with the side chain 7a using HATU / HOAT / DIPEA as condensing agents to prepare tripeptide compound 10. Compound 10 was treated with TBAF to expose the alcoholic hydroxyl group (11). The hydroxyl group was then esterified with protected cysteine and the product was prepared in the presence of MNBA (2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic acid). Anhydride) / / DMAP / Et3N, it was esterified with protected cysteine to obtain linear intermediate 12; 12 was deprotected from Boc and tert-butyl ester groups with TFA, followed by macrolactamization, using HATU / HOAt / DIPEA as condensing agents, to prepare macrolactam 13 with a yield of 72%; finally, 13 under I2 / MeOH-CH2Cl2 conditions under which intramolecular disulfide bonds were formed to obtain Sunshinamide with a yield of 90%.
[0006] In the first total synthesis of Sunshinamide, the macrocyclization seems to have a high yield, but the efficiency is not high for three reasons: first, the macrocyclic lactamization reaction needs to be carried out at an extremely dilute concentration, and the resulting macrocyclic lactamization still carries a large thiol protecting group Trt. When the protecting group is removed and a disulfide bond is formed, the molecular weight of the final product decreases sharply; second, the key intermediate 7a requires hydroxyl protection and de-chiralization of the chiral compound 5a, which is rather cumbersome; third, it is not convenient to synthesize Sunshinamide analogs in a diversified manner.
[0007] In addition, although Sunshinamide has a novel molecular structure and significant potential anti-tumor uses, the anti-tumor target of Sunshinamide has not yet been elucidated, and the structure-activity relationship research of its anti-tumor effect is still insufficient.
[0008] Based on the current status of the prior art, the inventors of the present application intend to provide a novel, concise, reliable and convenient new synthesis method for studying the structure-activity relationship of sunshinamide. Summary of the invention
[0009] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel, concise and reliable method for preparing Sunshinamide based on the current state of the art and the defects of the prior art synthetic routes. The present invention is based on a large number of experiments and by adjusting the reagents used in the relevant reactions, which can be conveniently synthesized into a series of Sunshinamide analogs, thereby facilitating their structure-activity relationship or related biological research. The synthetic route is as follows: Picture 3 shown.
[0010] Compared with the existing methods, the present invention is significantly different in that: 1. The chiral compound 5a does not need to be protected by hydroxyl groups, removed from the chiral auxiliary group, and then subjected to a subsequent condensation reaction with the amino acid fragment for linkage, but can be directly used for an aminolysis reaction with the amino acid fragment; 2. The macrocyclization of the cyclolipopeptide is not prepared by macrolactamization, but by macrolactonization; 3. Before the macrocyclization reaction of the key cyclolipopeptide, an intramolecular disulfide bond is first constructed to form an 8-membered ring intermediate, and two Trt protecting groups are removed, thereby reducing the molecular weight of the macrocyclization precursor, so that the molecular weight of the key macrocyclization product does not decrease significantly, thereby being beneficial to improving efficiency.
[0011] Specifically, the purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the above-mentioned synthetic route ( Picture 3 ). Using L-cysteine as a starting material, in the first step, the thiol group of L-cysteine is protected to obtain compound 15; subsequently, the amino group or carboxyl group thereof is protected to obtain compounds 16 and 17; in the condensation reaction of the fourth step, the two protected cysteines are connected through an amide bond to obtain compound 18; in the fifth step, compound 18 is deaminated and then condensed with D-amino-protected phenylalanine to obtain compound 19; in the sixth step, compound 19 is directly deaminated from the thiol protecting group and a disulfide bond is formed in the molecule to obtain compound 20; then, in the seventh step, compound 20 is deaminated from the protecting group to obtain free amine compound 21; in the eighth step, compound 21 is directly subjected to an aminolysis reaction with a chiral intermediate 5a to obtain compound 22; in the ninth step, the ester group of compound 22 is selectively hydrolyzed to obtain a carboxylic acid compound 23, and then compound 23 is macrolactonized to complete the preparation of Sunshinamide.
