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.

Toward fully autonomous closed-loop molecular discovery – A case study on JAK targets

Bridging AI and self-driving laboratories, we introduce the first fully-automated, closed-loop molecular discovery cycle, exemplified by the identification of novel JAK inhibitors. With minimal human intervention, we combined AI-driven molecular design and retrosynthesis with IBM’s synthesis automation system RoboRXN and Arctoris’ Ulysses platform for automated in-vitro screening.

Asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins with transition metal-based catalysts: practical insights from screening to production of APIs

Selective hydrogenation plays a critical role in modern synthetic chemistry, particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, where the production of chiral molecules with high enantiomeric purity is essential for the efficacy and safety of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
