NMR Spectroscopic Method to Identify and Classify Thiol-Trapping Agents: Revival of Michael Acceptors for Drug Discovery

Speed trap: Cysteamine reacts in DMSO with electrophilic double bonds to afford Michael adducts (see scheme), whereas no trapping reaction takes place in apolar solvents. A simple and quick NMR spectroscopic method to identify Michael acceptors and sort them into reversible and irreversible thiol si...

Zusammenfassung:Speed trap: Cysteamine reacts in DMSO with electrophilic double bonds to afford Michael adducts (see scheme), whereas no trapping reaction takes place in apolar solvents. A simple and quick NMR spectroscopic method to identify Michael acceptors and sort them into reversible and irreversible thiol sinks is validated biologically in a cellular assay sensitive to thiol‐trapping agents. DMSO=dimethyl sulfoxide.
