Insbesondere die Alkaloide zeichnen sich durch ihre biologischen Wirksamkeiten aus. Eine noch junge, sehr vielversprechende Substanzklasse stellen die sogenannten Naphthylisochinolin-Alkaloide dar, die bislang ausschließlich in den beiden Pflanzenfamilien der Ancistrocladaceae und Dioncophyllaceae gefunden wurden. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden Extrakte von Ancistrocladus congolensis (A.c.), Triphyophyllum peltatum (T.p.) und Dioncophyllum thollonii (D.t.) untersucht. Hierbei gelang die Isolation und Strukturaufklärung des bereits bekannten Korupensamin A (A.c.) sowie von sechs bislang unbekannten Alkaloiden: Ancistrocongolin A-D (A.c.), Habropetalin A (T.p.) und Dioncophyllin E (D.t.). Zu dem letztgenannten wurde ein synthetischer Zugang evaluiert. Alle neu isolierten Naturstoffe wurden einer biologischen Aktivitätstestung zugeführt. Im analytischen Bereich der Arbeit gelang die vollständige Strukturzuordnung des bereits seit mehreren Jahren bekannten Tetralons Isoshinanolon, was somit nun ein einfache Analytik für die Bestimmung der absoluten Konfiguration an die Hand gibt. Des Weiteren wurde die HPLC-CD-Kopplung als schnelle und praktikable chirale on-line-Analytik an mehreren Beispielen (Phyllin, TaClo, Murrastifolin F, Cyclorocaglamid, Thalidomid) sowohl im phytochemischen als auch synthetischen Bereich eingeführt und etabliert. N2 - Nature with its wide structural diversity of its secondary metabolites offers an almost inexhaustible source of new structures in the search for pharmaceutical active substances. Especially the alkaloids show remarkable biological activity. A young and very promising substance class are the so-called naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, which are so far exclusively found in the two plant families of the Ancistrocladaceae and Dioncophyllaceae. In this thesis the extracts of Ancistrocladus congolensis (A.c.), Triphyophyllum peltatum (T.p.) and Dioncophyllum thollonii (D.t.) were examined. Hereby the isolation and structural elucidation of the already known korupensamine A (A.c.) and of six so far unknown alkaloids succeeded: Ancistrocongoline A-D (A.c.), habropetaline A (T.p.) and dioncophylline E (D.t.). The synthetic access to the latter was evaluated. All isolated natural products were subjected to biological testing. Regarding the analytical field, the entire identification of the absolute configuration of the tetralone isoshinanolone was achieved, which gives a simple chiral analytical method at hand to determine the absolute configuration. Furthermore, the HPLC-CD coupling was successfully introduced to phytochemical as well as chemical analysis. This was demonstrated with several examples (phylline, TaClo, murrastifoline F, cycloracaglamide, thalidomide), establishing this technique as a fast and practicable chiral on-line analytic device.

In this context, artificial photosynthesis is emerging as a promising technology to enable the storage of the fluctuating energy of sunlight in chemical bonds of transportable “solar fuels”. Thus, in recent years much efforts have been devoted to the development of robust water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) leading to the discovery of the highly reactive Ru(bda) (bda: 2,2’-bipyridine-6,6’-dicarboxylic acid) catalyst family. The aim of this thesis was the study of chemical and photocatalytic water oxidation with functionalized Ruthenium macrocycles to explore the impact of substituents on molecular properties and catalytic activities of trinuclear macrocyclic Ru(bda) catalysts. A further objective of this thesis comprises the elucidation of factors that influence the light-driven water oxidation process with this novel class of supramolecular WOCs. N2 - Innovative Ansätze zur Ermöglichung eines effizienten Übergangs zur CO2-Neutralität werden angesichts der schnell steigenden Nachfrage nach Energie und der negativen Effekte des Klimawandels dringend gesucht. In diesem Zusammenhang hat das Konzept der künstlichen Photosynthese in den letzten Jahren für besondere Aufmerksamkeit gesorgt. In dieser Hinsicht erscheinen in 2009 erstmals beschriebenen Ru(bda) (bda: 2,2’-bipyridin-6,6’-dicarbonsäure) Wasseroxidationskatalysatoren besonders vielversprechend. Das Ziel dieser Forschungsarbeit war die Untersuchung von funktionalisierten Ruthenium Makrozyklen in der chemischen und photokatalytischen Wasseroxidation, um den Einfluss der Substituenten in den Liganden auf molekulare Eigenschaften und katalytische Aktivitäten der Makrozyklen zu analysieren. Des Weiteren sollten Faktoren identifiziert werden, welche Einfluss auf die Effizienz der Photokatalyse mit dieser neuartigen Klasse von supramolekularen Katalysatoren ausüben.

A1 - Mitrić, Roland A1 - Würthner, Frank T1 - Impact of substituents on molecular properties and catalytic activities of trinuclear Ru macrocycles in water oxidation N2 - Herein we report a broad series of new trinuclear supramolecular Ru(bda) macrocycles bearing different substituents at the axial or equatorial ligands which enabled investigation of substituent effects on the catalytic activities in chemical and photocatalytic water oxidation. Our detailed investigations revealed that the activities of these functionalized macrocycles in water oxidation are significantly affected by the position at which the substituents were introduced. Interestingly, this effect could not be explained based on the redox properties of the catalysts since these are not markedly influenced by the functionalization of the ligands. Instead, detailed investigations by X-ray crystal structure analysis and theoretical simulations showed that conformational changes imparted by the substituents are responsible for the variation of catalytic activities of the Ru macrocycles. For the first time, macrocyclic structure of this class of water oxidation catalysts is unequivocally confirmed and experimental indication for a hydrogen-bonded water network present in the cavity of the macrocycles is provided by crystal structure analysis. We ascribe the high catalytic efficiency of our Ru(bda) macrocycles to cooperative proton abstractions facilitated by such a network of preorganized water molecules in their cavity, which is reminiscent of catalytic activities of enzymes at active sites.

Computational approaches can be a very useful tool for investigating such questions, as they allow the inspection of single, specific effects in isolation from all others, in a manner very difficult to achieve experimentally. The ab initio treatments of such large systems like proteins are still not feasible. However, there is a vast number of computational approaches capable of dealing with protein structures with reasonable accuracy. This work presents a summary of theoretical investigations into cysteine protease cathepsin B using a range of methods. We have concentrated on the investigation of cysteine protease inhibition by epoxide- and aziridine-based inhibitors in order to obtain better insight into these important topics. Various model systems are simulated by means of pure quantum mechanical methods and by hybrid (QM/MM) methods. Both approaches provide a static picture. Dynamical effects are then accounted for by additional molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, using both classical and QM/MM MD approaches. The quantum mechanical approach was used to study very small model systems consisting only of the electrophilic warhead of the inhibitor (both substitituted and not) and molecular moieties simulating a very simplified protein active site (methylthiolate instead of Cys29 and methylimidazolium instead of His199 residue) and solvent surroundings (two waters or two ammonium ions, in combination with a continuum solvent model). Although simple, such a system provides a good description of the most important interactions involved in the inhibition reaction. It also allows investigation of the influence of the properties of the electrophilic warhead on the reaction rate. Beside the properties of the electrophilic warhead, the protein and solvent environment is also an important factor in the irreversible deactivation of the enzyme active site by the inhibitor. The non-covalent interactions of the inhibitor with the oxyanion hole and other subsites of the enzyme, as well as its interaction with the solvent molecules, need to be explicitly taken into account in the calculations, because of their possible impact on the reaction profile. As molecular modeling methods allow the treatment of such large systems, but lack the possibility of describing covalent interactions, our method of choice was the combined quantum mechanics/molecular modeling approach. By splitting the system into a smaller part that undergoes the bond cleavage/formation process and must be treated quantum mechanically, and a larger part, comprised of the rest of the protein, which could be treated using force fields, we managed to simulate the system at the desired precision. Our investigations concentrated on the role of His199 in the inhibition mechanism as well as on the structure-reactivity relationships between cysteine protease and various inhibitors, yielding new insight into the kinetics, regio- and stereospecificity of the inhibition. In particular, our calculations provide the following insights: i.) an explanation for the regioselectivity of the reaction, and original insight into which interactions affect the stereoselectivity; ii.) a clear model which explains the known structure-activity relationships and connects these effects with the pH-dependency of the inhibition; iii.) our computations question the generally accepted two-step model by showing that substituent effects accelerate the irreversible step to such an extent that the achievement of an equilibrium in the first step is doubtful; iv.) by way of theoretical characterizations of aziridine models, the reasons for similarities and differences in the mode of action of epoxide- and aziridine-based inhibitors are elucidated; and finally, v.) combining our results with experimental knowledge will allow rational design of new inhibitors. To account for dynamical effects as well, molecular dynamics (MD) computations were also performed. In these calculations the potential energy was computed at the force field level. The results not only supported and clarified the QM/MM results, but comparison with previous X-ray structures helped correct existing errors in the available geometrical models and resolved inconsistencies in the weighting of various factors governing the inhibition. In the work the first QM/MM MD calculations on the active site of the cysteine proteases are presented. In contrast to the MD simulations, these calculations used potential energies computed at the QM/MM-level. With the help of these computations we sought to address strongly disputed questions about the reasons for the existence of the active site ion pair and its role in the high activity of the enzyme. N2 - Obwohl bereits seit den späten 70ern bekannt und untersucht, ist das Bild über die grundsätzlichen Prinzipien, welche die Wirksamkeit der Inhibition und die Struktur-Aktivitäts-Beziehungen (SAB) der Cysteinprotease-Hemmmechanismen beeinflussen, immer noch sehr unvollständig. In dieser Arbeit wurden quantenmechanische (QM), molekulardynamische (MD) und gemischte quantenmechanische/molekularmechanische (QM/MM) Berechnungen durchgeführt, um die irreversible Inaktivierung des Enzyms durch den Inhibitor, zu untersuchen. Die Stärke von computergestützten Verfahren liegt in der Möglichkeit, den Einfluss einzelner spezifischer Effekte durch das Ausblenden von Umgebungseffekten zu untersuchen. Diese Herangehensweise ist nur sehr schwer im Experiment zu erreichen. Die quantenmechanische Methode wurde benutzt, um sehr kleine Modellsysteme zu untersuchen, welche lediglich aus dem elektrophilen Kerngerüst des Inhibitors und einigen, das aktive Zentrum im Protein vereinfachend darstellenden, Molekülen bestanden. Die Solvensumgebung wurde durch zwei explizite Wassermoleküle und zwei Ammoniumionen in Kombination mit einem Kontinuum-Solvensmodell berücksichtigt. Ein solches vereinfachtes System liefert bereits eine gute Beschreibung der meisten wichtigen Wechselwirkungen während der Inhibierungsreaktion. Es erlaubt die Untersuchung des Einflusses der Eigenschaften des elektrophilen „Warheads“ auf den Reaktionsverlauf. Neben den Eigenschaften des elektrophilen „Warheads“ ist sowohl die Protein- als auch die Solvensumgebung von großer Bedeutung für die irreversible Deaktivierung des aktiven Zentrums des Enzyms durch den Inhibitor. Aufgrund eines möglichen Einflusses auf das Reaktionsprofil müssen Solvensmoleküle sowie die nicht-kovalenten Wechselwirkungen des Inhibitors mit dem Oxyanionloch und anderen Nebenbindungstellen des Enzyms explizit behandelt werden. Berücksichtigt man, dass nur molekularmechanische Methoden eine Behandlung von solch großen Systeme erlauben, im Gegenzug aber nicht in der Lage sind, kovalente Wechselwirkungen zu beschreiben, so wurde als Methode der Wahl ein kombinierter QM/MM Ansatz gewählt. Durch das Aufteilen des Gesamtsystems in einen kleinen Bereich, der die Bindungsspaltung- und Bindungsbildungsreaktionen beinhaltet (mit QM behandelt), und in einen großen Teil, welcher den Rest des Proteins umfasst (mit MM behandelt), waren wir in der Lage, das System mit gewünschter Genauigkeit zu simulieren. In den Kapiteln 3.2.2 bis 3.2.4 werden die Struktur-Reaktivitäts-Beziehungen (SRB) zwischen der Cysteinprotease und verschiedenen Inhibitoren vorgestellt. Es wird gezeigt, dass die SRB eine entscheidende Rolle in Kinetik, Regio- und Stereoselektivität der Inhibierung spielen. Um auch die dynamischen Effekte im Anspruch zu nehmen, wurden klassische molekulardynamische (MD) Simulationen durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse dieser Berechnungen haben nicht nur unterstützt und die QM/MM Ergebnisse näher erklärt, sondern auch durch der Vergleich mit bereits bestehenden Röntgenstrukturen verschiedener Cysteineprotease-Inhibitor-Komplexen geholfen, Fehler in vorhandenen Proteinkristallstrukturen zu korrigieren. Somit wurden Widersprüche in der Bewertung verschiedener Funktionen, die die Inhibierungsreaktion bestimmen, aufgelöst (Kapitel 3.2.5). In der Arbeit werden auch die ersten QM/MM MD Berechnungen vom aktiven Zentrum der Cysteineprotease vorgestellt. Im Kontrast zu den klassischen MD Simulationen, wird in diesen Untersuchungen die potentielle Energie auf dem QM/MM Theorieniveau berechnet. Hier haben wir versucht die stark umstrittene Frage über die Gründe für das Vorhandensein des aktiven Zentrums als His199+/Cys29- Ion-paar und seine Rolle für die hohe Aktivität des Enzyms zu beantworten.
