In the title compound, C20H24N2O4, both peptide bonds adopt a trans configuration with respect to the —N—H and —C=O groups. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 53.58 (4)°. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The crystal packing is characterized by zigzag chains of N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonded molecules running along the b-axis direction.
A novel series of ribonucleosides of 1,2,3-triazolylbenzyl-aminophosphonates was synthesized through the Kabachnik–Fields reaction using I2 as catalyst followed by copper-catalyzed cycloaddition of the azide–alkyne reaction (CuAAC). All structures of the newly prepared compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS spectra. The structures of 2e, 2f, 3d, and 3g were further confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. These compounds were tested against various strains of DNA and RNA viruses; compounds 4b and 4c showed a modest inhibitory activity against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and compound 4h displayed modest inhibitory activity against Coxsackie virus B4.
In this study, we describe the synthesis of 1,4-disustituted-1,2,3-triazolo-quinazoline ribonucleosides or acyclonucleosides by means of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between various O or N-alkylated propargyl-quinazoline and 1'-azido-2',3',5'-tri-O-benzoylribose or activated alkylating agents under microwave conditions. None of the compounds selected showed significant anti-HCV activity in vitro.
Wie leider erst jetzt bekannt wurde, verstarb im März dieses Jahres Herr Kollege Teuber mit 95 Jahren. Geboren am Ende des 1. Weltkrieges in Berlin, studierte er dort ab 1937 gleichzeitig Chemie und Medizin. Nach Promotion und Habilitation an der Universität Heidelberg wechselte er 1953 an die Universität Frankfurt. Es folgte 1960 die Ernennung zum apl. Professor, 1970 zum Wissenschaftlichen Rat und Professor. 1984 trat Kollege Teuber in den Ruhestand.
The title compound, C12H20N4O, undergoes a phase transition on cooling. The room-temperature structure is tetragonal (P43212, Z′ = 1), with the methoxybornyl group being extremely disordered. Below 213 K the structure is orthorhombic (P212121, Z′ = 2), with ordered molecules. The two independent molecules (A and B) have very similar conformations; significant differences only occur for the torsion angles about the Cbornyl—Ctetrazole bonds. The independent molecules are approximately related by the pseudo-symmetry relation: xB = −1/4 + yA, yB = 3/4 - xA and zB = 1/4 + zA. In the crystal, molecules are connected by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the tetrazole groups, forming a pseudo-43 helix parallel to the c-axis direction. The crystal studied was a merohedral twin with a refined twin fraction value of 0.231 (2).

Dr. Abbas Gholami ist am 28. August 2013 verstorben. Geboren 1945 und aufgewachsen in Quchan, Persien, führte ihn seine Sehnsucht als 18-Jährigen nach Deutschland, nach Frankfurt. Hier nahm er das Chemiestudium an der Goethe-Universität auf und beendete es als Diplomchemiker. Eine Dissertation auf dem Alkaloidgebiet bei Prof. Teuber folgte und 1979 wurde er promoviert.
We examine the photoinduced excited state dynamics of pyrene modified adenosine, a versatile probe for folding and hybridization of ribonucleic acids. Measurements in different solvents revealed complex ultrafast dynamics, but high robustness since the overall fluorescence quantum yield (Φf) is hardly affected. The result is a strong fluorescent RNA-probe whose spectral properties change in a defined way upon environmental changes.
In the title molecule, C18H17N5O2, the dihedral angle between the benzene plane and the benzimidazole plane is 19.8 (1)° and the angle between the benzene plane and the triazole plane is 16.7 (1)°. In the crystal, molecules are connected by O—H[cdots, three dots, centered]N hydrogen bonds, forming zigzag chains along the c-axis direction. The chains are connected by bifurcated N—H[cdots, three dots, centered](N,N) hydrogen bonds into layers parallel to (100). These layers are connected along the a-axis direction by weak C—H[cdots, three dots, centered]O contacts, forming a three-dimensional network.
A series of novel mono-1,2,3-triazole and bis-1,2,3-triazole acyclonucleoside analogues of 9-(4-hydroxybutyl)guanine was prepared via copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-9 propargylpurine, N-1-propargylpyrimidines/as-triazine with the azido-pseudo-sugar 4-azidobutylacetate under solvent-free microwave conditions, followed by treatment with K2CO3/MeOH, or NH3/MeOH. All compounds studied in this work were screened for their antiviral activities [against human rhinovirus (HRV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV)] and antibacterial activities against a series of Gram positive and negative bacteria.
Nep1 (Emg1) is a highly conserved nucleolar protein with an essential function in ribosome biogenesis. A mutation in the human Nep1 homolog causes Bowen–Conradi syndrome—a severe developmental disorder. Structures of Nep1 revealed a dimer with a fold similar to the SPOUT-class of RNA-methyltransferases suggesting that Nep1 acts as a methyltransferase in ribosome biogenesis. The target for this putative methyltransferase activity has not been identified yet. We characterized the RNA-binding specificity of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii Nep1 by fluorescence- and NMR-spectroscopy as well as by yeast three-hybrid screening. Nep1 binds with high affinity to short RNA oligonucleotides corresponding to nt 910–921 of M. jannaschii 16S rRNA through a highly conserved basic surface cleft along the dimer interface. Nep1 only methylates RNAs containing a pseudouridine at a position corresponding to a previously identified hypermodified N1-methyl-N3-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl) pseudouridine (m1acp3-Psi) in eukaryotic 18S rRNAs. Analysis of the methylated nucleoside by MALDI-mass spectrometry, HPLC and NMR shows that the methyl group is transferred to the N1 of the pseudouridine. Thus, Nep1 is the first identified example of an N1-specific pseudouridine methyltransferase. This enzymatic activity is also conserved in human Nep1 suggesting that Nep1 is the methyltransferase in the biosynthesis of m1acp3-Psi in eukaryotic 18S rRNAs.
