Inverse‐electron‐demand Diels–Alder cycloaddition (DAinv) between strained alkenes and tetrazines is a highly bio‐orthogonal reaction that has been applied in the specific labeling of biomolecules. In this work we present a two‐step labeling protocol for the site‐specific labeling of proteins based on attachment of a highly stable norbornene derivative to a specific peptide sequence by using a mutant of the enzyme lipoic acid ligase A (LplAW37V), followed by the covalent attachment of tetrazine‐modified fluorophores to the norbornene moiety through the bio‐orthogonal DAinv . We investigated 15 different norbornene derivatives for their selective enzymatic attachment to a 13‐residue lipoic acid acceptor peptide (LAP) by using a standardized HPLC protocol. Finally, we used this two‐step labeling strategy to label proteins in cell lysates in a site‐specific manner and performed cell‐surface labeling on living cells. 相似文献
To demonstrate the structural specificity of the glycosyl donor for the transglycosylation reaction by using endo‐β‐N‐acetylglucosaminidase from Mucor hiemalis (endo‐M), a series of tetrasaccharide oxazoline derivatives was synthesized. These derivatives correspond to the core structure of an asparagine‐linked glycoprotein glycan with a β‐mannose unit of a non‐natural‐type monosaccharide, including β‐glucose, β‐galactose, and β‐talose in place of the β‐mannose moiety. The transglycosylation activity of wildtype (WT) endo‐M and two mutants, N175Q and N175A, was examined by using these tetrasaccharide donors with p‐nitrophenyl N‐acetylglucosaminide (GlcNAc‐pNp). The essential configuration of the hydroxy group for the transglycosylation reaction was determined. On the basis of these results, the transglycosylation reaction was investigated by using chemically modified donors, and transglycosylated products were successfully obtained. 相似文献
The conversion and stereoselectivity of transformation to endo and exo norbornene derivatives was determined in the Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with alkyl acrylates. The reactions
were carried out in the pyrrolidinium ionic liquids in the presence of metal chlorides and trifluoromethanesulfonates as the
catalysts. Shorter reaction times and higher conversions of dienophile were observed in a comparison with analogous cycloadditions
carried out in the presence of conventional organic solvents. A higher stereoselectivity to the endo isomer was found in the majority of cases. The ionic liquids composed of 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium cation (Pyrr1.4) and various anions were used. The influence of ionic liquid anion and several metal chlorides and metal triflates used as
the catalysts on the conversion was determined. 相似文献
Cyclooctadiene (COD) was polymerized via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) in the presence of 5-norbornene-exo, endo-2-carboxylic acid 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl ester (PN) or 5-norbornene-2-exo-3-endo-dicarboxylic acid bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl) ester (2,3-PN) to prepare a new kind of polymeric hindered amine (HALS) stabilizers. Unexpectedly, hindered amine norbornene derivatives
PN and 2,3-PN did not act as comonomer but acted as chain transfer agent (CTA). The resulting polymers were characterized by gel permeation
chromatography (GPC) and 1H-NMR. Investigation of polymerization behavior showed that hindered amine groups were introduced into polymer chain by virtue
of chain degradation resulted from chain transfer. The molecular weight (Mn) and HALS content of the resulting polymeric HALS stabilizer could be regulated by varying molar ratio of initial monomer
to catalyst. 相似文献
A series of N‐bromoacetylglycosylamines and bromoketone C‐glycosides were synthesised from complex xyloglucan oligosaccharide (XyGO) scaffolds as specific active‐site affinity labels for endo‐xyloglucanases. Compounds based on XXXG (Xyl3Glc4) and XLLG (Xyl3Glc4Gal2) oligosaccharides exhibited strikingly higher affinities and higher rates of irreversible inhibition than known cellobiosyl and new lactosyl disaccharide congeners when tested with endo‐xyloglucanases from two distinct glycoside hydrolase (GH) families. Intact‐protein mass spectrometry indicated that inactivation with XyGO derivatives generally resulted in a 1:1 labelling stoichiometry. Together, these results indicate that XyGO‐based affinity reagents have significant potential as inhibitors and proteomic reagents for the identification and analysis of diverse xyloglucan‐active enzymes in nature, to facilitate industrial enzyme applications. 相似文献
High adhesive strengths are essential in self‐healing polymers. In these novel materials, healing is triggered by crack propagation through embedded microcapsules in an epoxy matrix, which then release the liquid healing agent into the crack plane. Subsequent exposure of the healing agent to an embedded chemical initiator triggers ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), bonding the crack faces closed. In order to improve self‐healing efficiencies in these systems, it is necessary to improve the adhesion of the polymerized healing agent with the epoxy matrix. In this study, the adhesive shear strength between different norbornene‐based healing agents and an amine‐cured epoxy resin was evaluated using single lap shear specimens. The healing agents tested include endo‐dicyclopentadiene (DCPD), 5‐ethylidene‐2‐norbornene (ENB) and DCPD/ENB blends. 5‐Norbornene‐2‐methanol (NBM) and 5‐norbornene‐2‐exo,3‐exo‐dimethanol (NBDM) were used as adhesion promoters because they contain hydroxyl groups which can form hydrogen bonds with the amine‐cured epoxy adherend. A custom synthesized norbornene‐based crosslinking agent was also added to improve the adhesion of the polymerized ENB by increasing its crosslink density after ROMP. The effects of catalyst loading, polymerization time and cure temperature on the adhesive bond strength are studied in detail.
A highly enantioselective catalytic Diels–Alder (DA) cycloaddition of 2H‐pyran‐2,5‐diones (synthon of 5‐hydroxy‐2‐pyrones) has been developed with a Cinchona‐derived thiourea as the catalyst. The conditions were optimized by using 0.2 equiv. of the catalyst and 0.1 equiv. of formic acid in 2‐propanol at room temperature, which afforded the DA products in yields of up to 90% (exo/endo=5.5:1, 98% ee) with trans‐β‐nitrostyrene derivatives as the dienophiles. The structure/activity relationships of the bifunctional catalyst and the effects of the steric, electronic and hydrogen‐bonding properties of the dienophiles have been studied. 相似文献
We developed a fluorescence‐quenching‐based assay system to determine the hydrolysis activity of endo‐β‐N‐acetylglucosaminidases (ENGases). The pentasaccharide derivative 1 was labeled with an N‐methylanthraniloyl group as a reporter dye at the non‐reducing end and with a 2,4‐dinitrophenyl group as a quencher molecule at the reducing end. This derivative is hydrolyzed by ENGase, resulting in an increase in fluorescence intensity. Thus, the fluorescence signal is directly proportional to the amount of the tetrasaccharide derivative, hence allowing ENGase activity to be evaluated easily and quantitatively. Using this system, we succeeded in measuring the hydrolysis activities of ENGases and thus the inhibitory activities of known inhibitors. We confirmed that this assay system is suitable for high‐throughput screening for potential inhibitors of human ENGase that might serve as therapeutic agents for the treatment of N‐glycanase 1 (NGLY1) deficiency. 相似文献
Pd(dibenzylideneacetone)2, when activated in situ with 1 equiv of [CPh3][B(C6F5)4] in the presence of 1 equiv of P(C6H11)3, efficiently catalyzed the addition polymerization and copolymerization of norbornene and its derivatives. Homopolymerization of 5-vinyl-2-norbornene took place regio-selectively with the endo-cyclic double bond to give high-molecular weight polymers, while the exocyclic double bond remained intact so that the resulting polymer had pendent vinyl groups along the polymer chain. In the polymerization of a mixture of the endo-/exo- isomers of 2-methoxycarbonyl-5-norbornene, the endo-isomer was consumed prior to consumption of the exo-isomer, contrary to the well-known tendency in Pd(II)-based catalyst systems. Another notable feature of the present catalytic system was the strong dependency of the molecular weight on the reaction temperature, which was studied in detail for the copolymerization of 2-methoxycarbonyl-5-norbornene with norbornene: we could control the molecular weight without the use of a chain transfer agent. The extracted oligomeric fraction of poly(norbornene) showed the presence of a terminal CC double bond as well as a C6F5 unit that was bound to the first norbornane unit in the polymer chain. 相似文献
A stereoselective dicyanative 5‐exo‐ and 6‐endo‐cyclization using various enynes has been investigated. The mode of cyclization is critically controlled by the structure of the substrates. For example, N‐allyl derivatives prefer 5‐exo‐cyclization, while methacryloyl amides are transformed to the corresponding lactams with tetra‐substituted carbons at the alpha‐position via 6‐endo‐cyclization. Both reactions include syn‐cyanopalladation to carboncarbon triple bonds in the initial step, and sequential cyclization followed by reductive elimination in one operation enables the construction of the highly functionalized nitrogen heterocycles. The scope of suitable substrates and a proposed mechanism are also described. 相似文献
