[reaction: see text] A short and convergent synthesis of 2-aryl-6-chloronicotinamides via regioselective Suzuki coupling of 2,6-dichloronicotinamide with aryl boronic acids is described. Regioselectivity was achieved by chelation of the palladium(0) species to an ester/amide group. The air-stable palladium catalyst PXPd2, when used in reagent-grade methanol with K(2)CO(3) as the base, afforded the best regioselectivity and shortest reaction times among the catalysts screened.
A highly sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the determination of urinary N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc) using 3-[(1-[[4-(5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxoisoindolin-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenyl]sulfonyl]pyrrolidin-2-yl)carbonylamino]phenylboronic acid as a fluorescent labeling reagent was developed. The labeling reaction was carried out at 30 degrees C for 30 min in the presence of pyridine. The derivative was monitored at Ex 314 nm and Em 388 nm. The detection limit of NeuAc was about 48 fmol per injection. The relative standard deviations of within-day and between-day precisions were 2.6-3.3 and 1.7-3.3%, respectively. Urine diluted 10 times with distilled water was analyzed by employing the standard-addition method. The concentrations were 8-89 nmol/mg creatinine (30+/-28 nmol/mg creatinine, n=9).
Borates are known to interact with carbohydrate moieties expressed on the surface of biological membranes of a variety of cells, viruses, bacteria, and fungi. This study revealed the anomalous binding profile of borate in aqueous solution with N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac, sialic acid) as a potential receptor site on the surfaces of biological membranes using (11)B, (1)H, (13)C, and (15)N nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies. 3-(Propionamido)phenylboronic acid (PAPBA) was chosen as the model borate compound. The equilibrium constant (K) for Neu5Ac binding to PAPBA was compared with those for glucose, mannose, and galactose, which are the major carbohydrate constituents of glycoproteins and glycolipids expressed on biological membranes. In the Neu5Ac/PAPBA system, the unusual pH dependency of the K values, a decrease in K with increasing pH, was observed, suggesting the formation of a trigonal-formed complex stabilized by the coordination of an amide group of Neu5Ac at the C-5 position to the boron atom, forming intramolecular B-N or B-O bonding. Furthermore, the anomalously high complexing ability at physiological pH 7.4 was confirmed for this system, with the K value 37.6 which is approximately 7 times higher than that for glucose. This exceptionally high value of K at physiological pH, compared to those of other sugars, strongly suggests that the boronic acid selectively recognizes the Neu5Ac residues of the glycosylated components including glycoproteins and gangliosides existing on the surface of the biological membranes.
