Two thioacetate tails were introduced to the chlamydocin- and CHAP31-related cyclic tetrapeptides. An intramolecular disulfide bridge could be formed in the CHAP31-related cyclic peptides. Both the thioacetate-tailed and disulfide-bridged peptides were potent histone deacetylase inhibitors in the presence of sulfhydryl
A method for preparing benzyl aryl thioethers utilizing an in situ deprotection of benzyl thioacetates as an alternative to free thiols as starting materials has been developed and optimized. Good to excellent yields of diverse benzyl aryl thioethers are obtained

A new amide synthesis strategy based on a fundamental mechanistic revision of the reaction of thio acids and organic azides is presented. The data demonstrate that amines are not formed as intermediates in this reaction. Alternative mechanisms proceeding through a
Sir2 protein deacetylases (or sirtuins) catalyze NAD+-dependent conversion of epsilon-amino-acetylated lysine residues to deacetylated lysine, nicotinamide, and 2'-O-acetyl-ADP-ribose. Small-molecule modulation of sirtuin activity might treat age-associated diseases, such as type II diabetes, obesity, and neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we have evaluated

Trifluorothioacetic acid-S-(trifluoromethyl)ester, CF3C(O)SCF3, was prepared by reacting CF3C(O)Cl and AgSCF3 at 50 degrees C. The compound was characterized by (13)C-, (19)F-NMR, UV, and vibrational spectroscopy as well as by gas electron diffraction (GED) and quantum chemical calculations (HF, MP2, and
