Recent Advances in Methylation: A Guide for Selecting Methylation Reagents
TL;DR: This review summarizes recent advances in methylation by categorizing specific methylation reagents and broadens perspectives on which strategies to select for utilizing a particular methylation, resulting in an increased flexibility in synthetic route planning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and synthesis of potent inhibitors of the malaria aspartyl proteases plasmepsin I and II. Use of solid-phase synthesis to explore novel statine motifs.
Per-Ola Johansson,Yantao Chen,Anna Karin Gertrud Linnea Belfrage,Michael J. Blackman,Ingemar Kvarnström,Katarina Jansson,Lotta Vrang,Elizabeth Hamelink,Anders Hallberg,Åsa Rosenquist,Bertil Samuelsson +10 more
TL;DR: Picomolar to low nanomolar inhibitors of the two aspartic proteases plasmepsin (Plm) I and II, from the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, have been identified from sets of libraries containing novel statine-like templates modified at the amino and carboxy terminus.
Journal ArticleDOI
A convenient synthetic route to sulfonimidamides from sulfonamides
Yantao Chen,James S. Gibson +1 more
TL;DR: Sulfonimidamides were prepared in a one-pot transformation from sulfonamides, through nucleophilic substitution of sulfonimimidoyl chlorides formed in situ with different amines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Functionalizations of Primary Sulfonamides
TL;DR: This review aims to delineate recent efforts towards the functionalization of primary sulfonamides during last three years and to provide an overview of the synthesis of N-alkylated, N-acylated, and N-arylated sulfonamy-directed C–H functionalization from primary sulf onamides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Saccharin Aza Bioisosteres—Synthesis and Preclinical Property Comparisons
Yantao Chen,Carl-Johan Aurell,Anna Pettersen,Richard J. Lewis,Martin A. Hayes,Matti Lepistö,Anna C. Jonson,Hanna Leek,Linda Thunberg +8 more
TL;DR: It is predicted that structures exemplified by clusters C and D offer new opportunities for novel drug design, creating a chiral center on the sulfur atom and the option of substitution at two different nitrogens.
