Selective covalent targeting of SARS-CoV-2 main protease by enantiopure chlorofluoroacetamide

Daiki Yamane et al.

Summary: This study reports an irreversible inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2 M-pro with chlorofluoroacetamide (CFA) as a covalent modification agent. The (R,R)-18 isomer showed higher inhibitory activity against M-pro than other isomers. The findings highlight the influence of CFA chirality on the covalent modification of proteinous cysteines and provide a basis for improving the potency and selectivity of CFA-based covalent inhibitors.

Rapid synthesis of azepinoindole derivatives from tryptamine sulfonamides and bromoallyl sulfones via an acid-mediated cyclization and rearrangement

Ravikumar Gurram et al.

Summary: The novel acid-promoted cyclization-rearrangement method was used to synthesize the azepinoindole framework from tryptamine-derived N-sulfonyl enamines, which were prepared through a cesium carbonate mediated vinylic substitution reaction. The steric bulk of the N-sulfonyl group on tryptamine was found to be crucial in determining the reaction outcome.
