Abstract
A convergent synthesis of alpha-ketoamide inhibitors of Pin1 is described. An alpha-hydroxyorthothioester derivative of Ser was reacted directly with an amine synthon. The reaction was catalyzed by HgO and HgCl(2) to form alpha-hydroxyamide. Thus, hydrolysis and coupling were combined in one step with 80% yield. Two diastereomers of a phospho-Ser-Pro alpha-ketoamide analogue were synthesized. The IC(50) values of 100 and 200 microM were surprisingly weak for Pin1 peptidyl prolyl isomerase.Entities:
