Abstract

In this work, the synthetic development of an oxime resin aminolysis to lincosamide analogues is described. This synthetic endeavor hinges on a protecting-group-free strategy of the amino sugar nucleophiles. The cleavage from the solid support is achieved under mild conditions in a buffer solution and allows the preparation of a wide diversity of amino acid moieties onto glycosylamine scaffolds. The strategy is further exploited using methylthiolincosamine to generate rapidly complex lincomycin analogues. The results pave the way to access efficiently novel potentially relevant antibacterial compounds.

  • 23 Typical Experimental Procedure for the Cleavage of Oxime Resin To a peptide synthesis vessel was added the oxime resin (1.1 mmol g–1, 1.25 equiv) and was swelled with CH2Cl2 (3 × 5 mL). To a solution of the oxime resin in CH2Cl2/DMF (8:2, 0.02 M) were added amino sugar (1 equiv) and DIPEA (2.5 equiv). The vessel was mechanically stirred for a few seconds, and acetic acid (5 equiv) was added to the mixture. The peptide synthesis vessel was mechanically stirred at room temperature until starting material was consumed (overnight). The content of the vessel was then collected in a flask and the resin was washed with CH2Cl2 (3 × 5 mL) and MeOH (3 × 5 mL). The organic phase was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the resulting crude was purified by flash column chromatography.
