Abstract:

A series of acyclic analogs of natural product Syringolin A (SylA) were designed and synthesized during our synthetic efforts for SylA. These acyclic analogs were prepared through a seven-step linear strategy, with total yields varying from 20%-34% for one type of analogs and 12%-18% for the other. These compounds bear a common structure of peptidyl vinyl amide, which reacts irreversibly with the proteasomal active site Thr1Oγ through Michael-type 1,4-addition. Therefore, these acyclic analogs may function the same way as SylA, as potential 20S proteasome inhibitors.

Key words: Syringolin A, 20S proteasome, Peptidyl vinyl amide
