  • Dimeric ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin linked by a thioether bridge was synthesized from a reaction of mono-6-iodo-6-deoxy-${\beta}$-cyclodextrin with sodium sulfide, and the structure was analyzed using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The effects of thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD on the aqueous solubility of flavonols (myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol) were investigated by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The aqueous solubility of myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol were enhanced 33.6-, 12.4-, and 10.5-fold following the addition of 9 mM of thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD. In comparison, the aqueous solubility of myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol were enhanced 5.4-, 3.3-, and 2.7-fold using the same concentration of monomeric ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin. Furthermore, the formation of flavonol/thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD inclusion complexes was confirmed with nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the nature of the complexes significantly differed from that of free flavonols. Herein, we suggest that the thioether-bridged dimeric ${\beta}$-CD can act as an effective complexing agent for flavonols.

  • We have attempted to synthesize polyhydroxy stilbene compounds through the benzyl thioether moiety. During synthesis, we unexpectedly observed that demethylation of the compound under $AlCl_3$ in ethanethiol resulted in a regioselective addition of thiol to the double bond as well as complete demethylation. We report on the regioselective short synthesis for general structure and its structural identification.

  • Anti-CALLA Fab-RTA immunotoxins were constructed using two crosslinking agent, SMPT and SMCC, to generate a disulfide and a thioether bridge between Fab fragment of K269-65 MoAb and RTA toxin moieties, respectively. These immunotoxins were selectively immunoreative with CALLA$\^$+/ B-lineage Daudi cells. SMPT and SMCC mediated RTA immunotoxins were prepared with 49% and 53% of the RTA conjugation yields, respectively. SDS-PAGE analysis show that immunotoxins were constructed with major Fab-1 RTA (76kda), minor Fab-2RTA (106kda) and Fab-3RTA (136kda) compositions. The breakdown rates of immunotoxins were determined in the presence of glutathione by measuring the amount of reduced immunotoxins using size-exclusion HPLC. The SMCC immunotoxins were more resistant to the glutathione than SMPT immunotoxins. But, our data showed that the SMPT mediated disulfide bonded immunotoxins were much more active than the SMCC mediated thioether bonded immunotoxins to kill the target cells in vitro.

  • Thioglycerol과 Glycerol을 출발물질로 1번 탄소(C) 위치의 산소(O),또는 황(S)에 octadecyl기로 alkylation한 후, 2번 탄소(C)위치 산소(O)를 palmitoyl기로acetylation시켜 만든 thioether lipid 및 ether lipid유도체를 인산화시킨 rac-1-S-octa-decyl-2-O-palmitoyl-1-S-thioglycerol-3-phosphate (DL-PTBA-P)와 rac-1-O-octadecyl-2-O-palmitoylglycerol-3-phosphate (DL-PBA-P)등을 합성하였다. 이들 thioether lipid 및 ether lipid유도체는 그 자체로도 in vitro와 in vivo에서anti-neoplastic property를 가지고 있는데, 이들 중간체를 핵산 화합물로써 역시 강한 항암 작용에도 불구하고 독성등 부작용이 문제가 되고있는 Ara-C (일명 Cytarabine)의 인산화물인 ara-CMP morpholidate와 conjugation시켜 최종물질로서 ara-CDP-DL-PCA, ara-CDP-DL-PBA, ara-CDP-DL-PTCA 및 ara-CDP-DL-PTBA등을 합성하였다. 이들 중 ara-CDP-DL-PTBA가 본 과제와 관련하여 항암제로서 최종 개발하고자하는 주요 물질인 Cytoros이다.
