Journal ArticleDOI
High conversion and productive catalyst turnovers in cross-metathesis reactions of natural oils with 2-butene
TL;DR: In this article, high conversion and selectivity can be obtained for the cross-metathesis of 2-butene with triglycerides and unsaturated fatty acid esters derived from natural oils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave-assisted RCM for the synthesis of carbocyclic peptides.
TL;DR: Microwave irradiation dramatically improves the efficiency of ring closing metathesis (RCM) reactions of resin‐attached peptides and the technology is illustrated by the highly selective synthesis of dicarba analogues of α‐conotoxin IMI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solid phase synthesis and structural analysis of novel A-chain dicarba analogs of human relaxin-3 (INSL7) that exhibit full biological activity
Mohammed Akhter Hossain,K. Johan Rosengren,Suode Zhang,Ross A. D. Bathgate,Geoffrey W. Tregear,Bianca J. van Lierop,Andrea J. Robinson,John D. Wade +7 more
TL;DR: The replacement of the A-chain intramolecular disulfide bond of human relaxin-3 (H3 relaxin, INSL7), an insulin-like peptide that has potential applications in the treatment of stress and obesity, with the physiologically stable dicarba bond is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-metathesis of unsaturated natural oils with 2-butene. High conversion and productive catalyst turnovers.
TL;DR: The cross-metathesis of synthetic and natural triglycerides containing unsaturated fatty acids with 2-butene can be achieved with high conversion and excellent productive turnovers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dicarba α-conotoxin Vc1.1 analogues with differential selectivity for nicotinic acetylcholine and GABAB receptors.
Bianca J. van Lierop,Samuel D. Robinson,Shiva N. Kompella,Alessia Belgi,Jeffrey R. McArthur,Andrew Hung,Christopher A. MacRaild,David J. Adams,Raymond S. Norton,Andrea J. Robinson +9 more
TL;DR: The regioselective synthesis of dicarba analogues of α-conotoxin Vc1.1 will enable the elucidation of the biological target responsible for the peptide's potent analgesic activity and can be used to selectively tune the cyclic peptides' innate biological activity for one receptor over another.
