Newest firstThe synthesis of some N-(3-acyloxyacyl)glycines, an interesting class of bioactive gut microbiota metabolites, is described. This procedure involves seven reaction steps using the commercially available Meldrum's acid to obtain highly pure products, in normal or deuterated form. The key point of the synthetic strategy was the use of commendamide t-butyl ester as a synthetic intermediate, a choice that allowed the…
Open article record in new tab ↗A simple and sustainable propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P)-assisted methodology for the synthesis of N-acyl tryptamines, an interesting class of gut microbiota-derived endocannabinoid-like lipid mediators, was proposed. This protocol is characterized by great operational simplicity, and all products were obtained at room temperature, without the use of an inert atmosphere and by using limited amounts of non-halogen…
Open article record in new tab ↗N-oleoylglycine (OlGly), a lipid derived from the basic component of olive oil, oleic acid, and N-oleoylalanine (OlAla) are endocannabinoid-like mediators. We report that OlGly and OlAla, by activating the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα), reduce the rewarding properties of a highly palatable food, dopamine neuron firing in the ventral tegmental area, and the obesogenic effect of a high-fat…
