protonation of the exocyclic nitrogen atom of the imidazole ring would improve OGA inhibitory properties by mimicking the charge distribution in the oxocarbe­nium ion, as previously reported for the inhibition of β-glycosidases[56]. Indeed, this small molecule GlcNAcstatin is a potent inhibitor of a bacterial OGA isolated from Clostridium perfringens, which shares high sequence similarity with that of hOGA, showing a K

The first synthesis of GlcNAcstatin[52] is illustrated in Scheme10.6. It was achieved by an elegant but very long synthetic approach with 15 reaction steps starting from dibenzylated -xylose 24. Reduction with sodium borohydride and protection of the free hydroxy groups with tert-butyldimethylsilyl group afforded the open-chain sugar 25, which was selectively deprotected by acid hydrolysis to afford the primary alcohol 26. Swern oxidation gave aldehyde 27, which reacted with the anion of N-tritylimidazole, generated by reaction with butyl lithium, to give a mixture of imidazoles embodying a -gulo chain in 28 and a -ido chain in 29, isolated in 53% and 18% yield, respectively. Acid detritylation of 28 with triethylsilane was followed by benzoylation of the free hydroxy group leading to the formation of 30. Reaction with N-iodosuccinimide gave the 4,5­diiodoimidazole derivative 31, submitted to acid hydrolysis to obtain compound 32 with a free hydroxy group. Reaction with trifluoroacetic anhydride to afford

tert-butylammonium fluoride afforded the alcohol 37, which was converted into the azide 38 with diphenylphosphoryl azide. Staudinger reduction was followed by amine acylation with isobutyric anhydride to afford precursor 39, the hydro­genation of which gave GlcNAcstatin in 7.7% overall yield from the starting material 24. With the promising biological results obtained for GlcNAcstatin, van Aalten, and coworkers used this compound as scaffold, and synthesized GlcNAcstatins A-H (Figure10.6)[53, 54, 59] to further explore the ability of this compound family to inhibit hOGA and to be selective for hOGA against hexosa­minidases. As hOGA active site has a cysteine residue (Cys215), which could react irreversibly with the inhibitor, van Aalten and coworkers designed GlcNAcstatins F and G comprising thiol-reactive groups in the acyl side chain (Scheme10.7)[54]. The synthetic strategy reported in 2010[59] for GlcNAcstatin and analogs differed from the one developed for the initial GlcNAcstatin[52], although some reactions were also applied, as shown in Scheme10.7. The start­ing material used was methyl -mannopyranoside 40, which reacted with butane-2,3-dione and trimethyl orthoformate in the presence of catalytic cam­phorsulfonic acid to afford the diacetal protected mannoside 41. Selective pro­tection of the secondary alcohol with the p-methoxybenzyl group gave 42 in 54% yield, separated from the diprotected compound, obtained in 25% yield. Reaction of OH-6in 42 with triphenylphosphane and iodine gave the iodo derivative 43. The reductive opening of the pyranoside ring was carried out with activated zinc in aqueous THF. The intermediate aldehyde formed was treated with a glyoxal solution in methanolic ammonia to afford the imidazole 44. Its catalytic dihy­droxylation with osmium tetraoxide was highly stereoselective but the configu­ration of the newly formed chiral center was not the required one. After silylation of the primary alcohol, the inversion of this configuration resulted from the introduction of two additional reaction steps, namely Swern oxidation to the ketone and sodium borohydride reduction, giving compound 46 with the desired -gulo stereochemistry. After cyclization to give compound 47, the strategy fol­lowed to introduce the alkyne moiety was similar to that used in the first synthe­sis of GlcNAcstatin[52]. Oxidative removal of the p-methoxybenzyl group with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone, azidation, azide reduction, acyla­tion, hydrogenation, and final deprotection with aqueous TFA for 36 the target GlcNAcstatin and GlcNacstatins B, D, G, and H in 3.6%, 4.7%, 4.0%,
2.9%, and 4.0% overall yield, respectively, from compound 40. For GlcNAcstatin F, the sulfanyl group was then deacetylated, providing this GlcNAcstatin deriva­tive with 2.0% overall yield.
The synthesized compounds were tested to evaluate their potency for OGA inhibi­tion and selectivity for hOGA over human hexosaminidases (Table10.2)[53, 54]. Most of them presented nanomolar K
values, with the exception of GlcNAcstatin B

In summary, some GlcNAcstatins are, indeed, promising candidates for further studies toward hOGA inhibitor’s therapeutics. Nonetheless, the challenge seems to also involve the search for synthetic approaches with less reaction steps to easily access this family of compounds, facilitating an eventual industrial production.
10.2.2.3 Thiazoline Inhibitors
The discovered mechanism of hOGA inhibition inspired Vocadlo’s group to develop new transition state mimics by replacing the oxazoline by a thiazoline ring contain­ing a side chain. Linear side chains varying in size and branched chains were inves­tigated, aiming at selectivity for hOGA over lysosomal β-hexosaminidase[39]. For the purpose, a facile synthetic route was envisioned to access compounds 62a–62g in good overall yields, in only three steps: N-acylation with RCOCl of peracetylated 2-amino-2-deoxy-β--glucopyranose hydrochloride 59; treatment with Lawesson’s reagent to afford the thiazoline-fused ring; final deprotection of the acetyl groups with sodium methoxide in methanol, and neutralization with glacial acetic acid in methanol (Scheme10.8). This procedure led to the generation of potent inhibitors, some of them with a remarkable selectivity of hOGA over β-hexosaminidase (Table10.3). Indeed, the most selective inhibitors are 62c (NButGT) and 62d with their thiazoline ring containing a propyl group and a butyl group, respectively (Scheme10.8, Table10.3), but NButGT is the most active and selective inhibitor. The activity and selectivity of this series were compared to that of PUGNAc (Figure10.4), a natural product and one of the first cell-permeable hOGA inhibitors with K β-hexosaminidase with K

The disadvantage of these thiazoline-based inhibitors is their limited chemical stability in solution over periods of days to weeks. Aiming to overcome this issue, Vocadlo’s group designed and synthesized Thiamet-G starting by N-acylation of

After titanium tetrachloride promoted cyclization, the protected bicyclic compound 64was obtained in 90% isolated yield (Scheme10.9)[61].

phosphorylation in cultured neuron-like cells and decreases phosphorylation of Tau invivo, thus becoming an interesting compound for further investigation of its func­tional role in AD pathology. In 2014, Yuzwa et al. [62] investigated the role of
O-GlcNAc on APP and β-amyloid production in mice exhibiting both Tau and β-amyloid pathologies, using Thiamet-G to increase the global levels of O-GlcNAc
in bigenic Tau/APP mutant mice (TAPP mice)[62], and concluded that pharmaco­logical inhibition of OGA prevents cognitive decline and amyloid plaque formation in the studied mutant mice. They showed that Thiamet-G increases O-GlcNAc lev­els in TAPP mouse brain, leading to reduction of neuritic plaques and amyloido­genic β-amyloid peptides levels, and blocking the onset of cognitive impairment. Intrigued by the role of this inhibitor, in 2016, Cekic etal.[40] explored substitution of the amino group to promote activity and selectivity for hOGA inhibition. They designed and synthesized a series of Thiamet-G derivatives by modifying N-substitution, aiming to understand the role of the alkyl side chain size, the influ­ence of altered electronic properties on the binding, and the effect of inhibitor pK The series comprises compounds type 66 (Scheme10.10), in which the amino group is either free or substituted with methyl, allyl, ethyl (Thiamet-G), propyl, and butyl groups, with 2-fluoroethyl, 2,2-difluoroethyl and 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl groups. The synthetic approach (Scheme 10.10) is inspired by that applied for Thiamet-G (Scheme10.9). Briefly, reaction of salt 59 either with N-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) protected or N-allyl protected isothiocyanate afforded intermediates 67a and 67b, respectively. Cyclization of 67a was accomplished by reaction with tita­nium tetrachloride, while that of the N-allyl intermediate was possible with TFA. Deprotection to 66a was carried out as for Thiamet-G, while deacetylation of 68b succeeded with potassium carbonate in methanol. The series 66c–66i and Thiamet-G (65) were prepared starting from the isothiocyanate 69, which reacted
