A Practical Sulfenylation of 2,5‐Diketopiperazines [PDF]

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, 2011
Sulfurs in action A practical and simple method for the introduction of sulfur atoms into 2,5-diketopiperazines (I) under mild conditions has been developed leading to more or less complex epidithiodiketopiperazines (II) and bis-methylthiodiketopiperazines (III).

Aldol condensations on a 3-alkylidene-2,5-diketopiperazine - synthesis of two marine natural products [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The synthesis of two marine natural products containing a 3-alkylidene-6-arylidene-2,5-diketopiperazine scaffold by employing two consecutive aldol condensations starting with 1,4-diacetyl-2,5-diketopiperazine is reported.

Electron Transfer-Induced Coupling of Haloarenes to Styrenes and 1,1-Diphenylethenes Triggered by Diketopiperazines and Potassium tert-Butoxide

open access: yesMolecules, 2015
The coupling of haloarenes to styrenes and 1,1-diarylethenes has been achieved with potassium tert-butoxide in the presence of N,N'-dialkyldiketopiperazines.

Five- and Six-Membered Nitrogen-Containing Compounds as Selective Carbonic Anhydrase Activators

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
It has been proven that specific isoforms of human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) are able to fine-tune physiological pathways connected to signal processing, and that decreased CAs expression negatively influences cognition, leading to mental retardation ...

Diketopiperazine-Type Alkaloids from a Deep-Sea-Derived Aspergillus puniceus Fungus and Their Effects on Liver X Receptor α

open access: yes, 2019
Eight new diketopiperazine-type alkaloids including four oxepin-containing diketopiperazine-type alkaloids, oxepinamides H–K (1–4), and four 4-quinazolinone alkaloids, puniceloids A–D (5–8), together with two known analogues (9 and 10), were isolated ...

Five- and Six-Membered Ring Opening of Pyroglutamic Diketopiperazine

open access: yes, 2016
A variety of ring-opening reactions of pyroglutamic diketopiperazine at both the five-membered and six-membered rings is described. Mild, basic conditions facilitate nucleophilic attack by amines at the diketopiperazine carbonyls giving pyroglutamides in

Antimicrobial and Biofilm Inhibiting Diketopiperazines

open access: yesCurrent Medicinal Chemistry, 2012
Diketopiperazines are the smallest cyclic peptides known. 90% of Gram-negative bacteria produce diketopiperazines and they have also been isolated from Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and higher organisms. Biosynthesis of cyclodipeptides can be achieved by dedicated nonribosomal peptide synthetases or by a novel type of synthetases named cyclopeptide ...

Biocatalysts for Peptide Geranylation With Linear and Cyclic Prenyl Groups

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A combination of genome mining, synthetic biology, and biocatalytic assays revealed enzymes that install linear and cyclized prenyl moieties on ribosomally or chemically synthesized peptides. The promiscuity of both enzymes, while being specific for modification of C‐terminal tryptophans, enables enzymatic access to peptide terpenoid hybrids.

Evidence of diketopiperazine and oxazolone structures for HA b2+ ion.

open access: yes, 2009
International audiencePeptide fragmentation can lead to an oxazolone or diketopiperazine b(2)(+) ion structure. IRMPD spectroscopy combined with computational modeling and gas-phase H/D exchange was used to study the structure of the b(2)(+) ion from ...
