The only known sulfur-containing karrikin, 3-methyl-2-thiopyrano[3,4-]furan-2-one, has been recently identified as an extremely efficient neuroprotective butenolide. Herein, we report the targeted synthesis of this compound as well as new synthetic protocols toward a class of compounds derived from 2-furo[2,3-]pyran-2-ones (karrikins) via bioisosteric exchange of oxygen with sulfur. In particular, we present synthetic procedures toward bioisosteres of karrikins with one or two sulfur heteroatoms incorporated into the core backbone together with evaluation of their biological activity in inhibition of acetylcholinesterase.
唯一已知的含硫卡里金,即3-甲基-2-硫代吡喃并[3,4 -]呋喃-2-酮,最近被鉴定为一种极其有效的神经保护丁烯内酯。在此,我们报告了该化合物的定向合成以及通过氧与硫的生物电子等排体交换,针对一类源自2-呋喃并[2,3 -]吡喃-2-酮(卡里金)的化合物的新合成方案。特别是,我们展示了合成核心骨架中含有一个或两个硫杂原子的卡里金生物电子等排体的程序,并评估了它们在抑制乙酰胆碱酯酶方面的生物活性。
