Indolizinylalanine Regioisomers: Tryptophan Isosteres with Bathochromic Fluorescence Emission.
We have developed a high yielding synthesis of indolizine and directly elaborated the molecule into three optically active indolizinylalanine regioisomers. The protocols exploit metal catalyzed coupling of indolizinyl-halides with organozinc reagents derived from carbamoylated iodoalanine esters. The scalable protocols provide products in a form amenable to solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). When incorporated into peptides, the indolizine heterocycle is more basic and markedly less nucleophilic than tryptophan. Its protonated vinylpyridinium form is deeply colored in solution while the neutral heterocycle is highly fluorescent. The fluorescence quantum yield of indolizine exceeds that of indole and aza-indoles in water, suggesting that indolizinylalanines could be powerful optical probes of protein structure and dynamics, functioning as true tryptophan isosteres.
