Protecting-Group-Free Solid-Phase Anchoring of Polyphenolic C-Glucosidic Ellagitannins and Synthesis of 1-Alkylamino-Vescalagin Derivatives with Chemspeed’s Fully Automated SYNTHESIZER

September 1, 2014

The C-glucosidic ellagitannins vescalagin and vescalin are among the plant polyphenols that have been shown to interact with protein targets in a specific manner. This work describes a protecting-group-free method to immobilize these protein-binding natural products on a solid support, and a functionalizing cleavage method, which is adaptable to the solution-phase synthesis of vescal(ag)in derivatives, and which advantageously permitted the preparation of 1-alkylamino derivatives of vescalagin.

Implementation of Large-Scale Multi-Reactor Automation for Process Development

Pharmaceuticals increasing complexity requires longer synthesis with unique processes for each step, increasing the number of experiments to develop robust sustainable processes. The time to develop these processes is getting shorter, and automation can support the growing need to efficiently perform more experiments.
