AbstractNineteen derivatives of coumarin were tested on the scavenging of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, hydroxyl and superoxide anion radicals. It was found that antioxidant activity exhibits only such coumarins that contain hydroxyl groups. The derivatives without hydroxyl group showed very low antioxidant effectiveness or they were ineffective. On the other hand, the greatest antioxidant effectiveness was exhibited by coumarin derivatives that contained hydroxyl groups in 6 or 8 position, whereas the effectiveness of derivatives with one hydroxyl group in 4, 5 or 7 position was very low. Based on scavenging of the above-mentioned radicals, it was found that the most effective scavengers were 7,8-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (i.e. compound that contains two hydroxyl groups in 7 and 8 positions), (7,8-dihydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)acetic acid (this compound contains in addition to two hydroxyl groups in 7 and 8 positions also one hydroxyl group in the acidic residue), esculetin (6,7-dihydroxycoumarin) and 6,7-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin.

A series of four new derivatives of sucrose have been synthesized using the straightforward methodology in order to give a mono substituted analogs of sucrose at C-6’ of fructose moiety. The synthesis was started from the reaction of sucrose with tert-butylchlorodiphenylsilane, which is able to react with an only less steric hindrance hydroxyl group at C-6’ due to its bulky structure. The other hydroxyl groups were acetylated by the reaction with acetic anhydride in pyridine. Then free the hydroxyl group at C-6’ again by the treatment with t-butylammonium fluoride in THF. The later was activated by conversion to a good leaving group via tosylation, followed by functionalized via azidation to give the precursor of the target series hepta-O-acetyl-6’-azido- sucrose. The precursor was coupled with four alkyl halides (C12, C8-4, C14, C10-8) via Staudinger reaction to produced the target structure after deacetylating. The purity and chemical structure of the synthesized compound was confirmed by CHN elemental analysis, high-resolution mass and 1H, 13C NMR spectroscopy.

The microsomal UDP glucuronyl transferase exhibits activities against hydroxy derivatives of androstenedione (hydroxyl groups in the positions 2β, 6β or 16α) between 5% and 27% of the extent shown against testosterone. 2β-, 6β· and 16α-hydroxyl groups are much less efficient in accepting the glucuronic acid than the 17β-hydroxyl group.However, the acceptor function of the 17β-hydroxyl group is restricted by other hydroxy substituents in the testosterone molecule to an increasing extent represented by the following sequence: 2α, 6β, 6α, 16α, and 7α. A special case is represented by 2β-hydroxy-testosterone. The transferase displays a higher activity against this compound than against testosterone.Apparently the transferase approaches the steroid molecule from the α-side (with the β-side there is also contact at the C-6 atom) requires the 17β-hydroxyl group and the 3-oxo-4-ene system to display full activity.Thus the very high specificity of the transferase for testosterone explains the selective action of this enzyme on testosterone metabolism in the liver. This action is expressed by the fact, that in liver perfusates the percentage of testosterone in the glucuronide fraction is twice as large as the percentage of testosterone in the free steroid fraction.

Cyclic imine toxins are neurotoxic, macrocyclic compounds produced by marine dinoflagellates. Mass spectrometric screenings of extracts from natural plankton assemblages revealed a high chemical diversity among this toxin class, yet only few toxins are structurally known. Here we report the structural characterization of four novel cyclic-imine toxins (two gymnodimines (GYMs) and two spirolides (SPXs)) from cultures of Alexandrium ostenfeldii. A GYM with m/z 510 (1) was identified as 16-desmethylGYM D. A GYM with m/z 526 was identified as the hydroxylated degradation product of (1) with an exocyclic methylene at C-17 and an allylic hydroxyl group at C-18. This compound was named GYM E (2). We further identified a SPX with m/z 694 as 20-hydroxy-13,19-didesmethylSPX C (10) and a SPX with m/z 696 as 20-hydroxy-13,19-didesmethylSPX D (11). This is the first report of GYMs without a methyl group at ring D and SPXs with hydroxyl groups at position C-20. These compounds can be conceived as derivatives of the same nascent polyketide chain, supporting the hypothesis that GYMs and SPXs are produced through common biosynthetic genes. Both novel GYMs 1 and 2 were detected in significant amounts in extracts from natural plankton assemblages (1: 447 pg; 2: 1250 pg; 11: 40 pg per mL filtered seawater respectively).

AbstractA concise method for a stereocontrolled synthesis of a set of selectively protected disaccharides is reported. Coupling of the donor 11 onto acceptors 23 and 24, promoted by trimethylsilyl triflate-N-iodosuccinimide (TMSOTf-NIS), generated the disaccharides 25 and 26. Under typical conditions, condensation of the fully protected donor 12 onto acceptors 23 and 24 produced the disaccharides 27 and 28. The building blocks 25–28 were prepared in moderate yields having exclusive β-stereoselectivity. A unique pattern of protecting groups distinguished clearly between positions to be sulfated and functional groups remaining as free hydroxyl groups. Acetyl and/or levulinoyl esters temporarily protected the positions to be sulfated, while benzyl ethers were used for permanent protection. The anomeric positions were protected as allyl ethers, whereas the 4′-positions were masked as p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) ethers. The orthogonality of the PMB and allyl groups can then be used for further elongation of the chain by recurrent deprotection and activation steps. The hydroxyl group, OH-6, of glucosamine moieties was protected as a TBDPS ether to avoid oxidation. A five-step deprotection/sulfonation sequence was applied to the disaccharide 27 to generate the corresponding sulfated [β-D-GlcUA-2-OSO3Na-(1→4)-β-D-Glc pNAc]-(1→O-Pro) 34.

Acyl Derivatives

A methodology for the selective synthesis of lipophilic acyl derivatives of the glycinamido triol (1) with either one, two, or three fatty ester groups has been established. Peracylation of (1), with palmitoyl chloride gave the triacylated derivative. Conversion of (1) into the acetonide, followed by acylation with either palmitoyl chloride or lauroyl chloride, and acetal hydrolysis provided the monoacylated derivatives. Treatment of (1) with trimethyl orthoacetate gave the orthoacetate derivative. Mild hydrolysis provided the monoacetate/diol. Acylation of the two hydroxyl groups with palmitoyl chloride gave the dipalmitate/acetate. Selective cleavage of the acetate group afforded the dipalmitate of (1). Analogous chemistry with trimethyl orthoformate provided the same dipalmitate via the orthoformate, monoformate/diol, and dipalmitate/formate. A more robust synthesis of the dipalmitate was achieved by converting the hydroxyl group of the acetonide of (1) into a tert-butyldiphenylsilyl ether, followed by acetal hydrolysis, palmitoylation of the liberated hydroxyl groups, and desilylation.

In the framework of method of the B3LYP hybrid density functional and the restricted Hartree-Fock method in the basis of 6-311 (d, p), quantum-chemical calculations of model compounds of lignin, i.e. derivatives of p-hydroxycinnamic alcohol were carried out. The structures and reactivity of coumaric, coniferyl and synapol alcohols were studied. The structural units of lignin contain hydroxyl groups which can be in the plane of benzene ring but can be turned up to 90° with respect to this plane. In the case of methoxy groups which are also present in coniferol and synapol alcohols, the methyl group is turned to 90° with respect to the plane of ring, as the most favorable conformation. Moreover, these compounds contain π,π-conjugations of the aromatic ring with an aliphatic fragment of molecule that affects the geometric characteristics of the molecule. For coumaric and coniferyl alcohols, the Сар–Сα bond length is 1.47 Ǻ. A slight deformation of valence angles for coumaric and synapol alcohols equal to 118.94° and 117.72° respectively instead of 120° at sp2 hybridization indicates the availability of conjugation. The use of a charge as a descriptor of attack selectivity of nucleophilic and electrophilic particles allows us to analized of the reactivity of these acids are given. It is found that the electronic structure of lignin is determined primarily by the charge distribution in its structural phenylpropane unit. In the molecules of all model compounds of lignin, the center for nucleophilic attack is the carbon of aromatic ring (E-ring) with a hydroxyl group, and in the molecule of synapol alcohol, this center is also the carbon of the aromatic ring (E-ring) with a methoxy group. In all three compounds, a center with an increased electron density appears on the Сβ carbon atom.

Partial EI-mass spectra of 3β-hydroxy- and 3β-acetoxy-5α-cholestanes substituted in positions 5α-, 6β- or 5α,6β- with a hydroxyl group or halogen atoms (fluorine, chlorine, bromine) are presented. The molecular ions of 5α,6β-disubstituted derivatives of 3β-hydroxy-5α-cholestane (or of its 3-acetate) are considerably more stable than the corresponding monosubstituted derivatives if at least one of the pair of the vicinal substituents is chlorine or fluorine. This increase in stability, most striking in 5α- and 6β-fluoro compounds, is explained by the inductive effect.

The effect of exo-D-galacturonanase from carrot on O-acetyl derivatives of pectic acid of variousacetylation degree was studied. Substitution of hydroxyl groups at C(2) and C(3) of D-galactopyranuronic acid units influences the initial rate of degradation, degree of degradation and its maximum rate, the differences being found also in the time of limit degradations of the individual O-acetyl derivatives. Value of the apparent Michaelis constant increases with increase of substitution and value of Vmax changes. O-Acetyl derivatives act as a competitive inhibitor of degradation of D-galacturonan. The extent of the inhibition effect depends on the degree of substitution. The only product of enzymic reaction is D-galactopyranuronic acid, what indicates that no degradation of the terminal substituted unit of O-acetyl derivative of pectic acid takes place. Substitution of hydroxyl groups influences the affinity of the enzyme towards the modified substrate. The results let us presume that hydroxyl groups at C(2) and C(3) of galacturonic unit of pectic acid are essential for formation of the enzyme-substrate complex.
