Chemical reagents and solvents were obtained from commercial sources and were used without further purification. When necessary, solvents were dried and/or purified by standard methods. All reactions were monitored by thin-layer chromatography with preparative silica gel F254 plates purchased from Merck, Inc. Flash chromatography was performed using either a glass column packed with silica gel (200–300 mesh) or pre-packed silica gel cartridges by a combi-flash machine from Teledyne Isco. The purity of all target compounds assayed was identified by thin-layer chromatography (silica gel F254) and NMR spectra. In particular, the purity of the most active compounds, 2a, 2d and 3b, was further determined by HPLC (ESI). 1H-NMR spectra were recorded on Varian Mercury 300 MHz or 400 MHz spectrometer. 13C-NMR spectra were recorded on Varian Mercury 400 MHz or 500 MHz spectrometer. Chemical shifts are reported in parts per million (δ) relative to internal tetramethylsilane (TMS) standard. Coupling constants are given in hertz. All melting points were determined on Yanaco melting point apparatus. Mass spectra were taken in HR-ESI mode on Exactive Plus™ LC/MSD Orbitrap from Thermo Fisher Scientific.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the experiments with the free ligand, cmp4 was dissolved in a [D11]-Tris buffer at pH = 7.3, 5 mM MgCl2. COSY and HSQC experiments were performed by using the standard sequences. For the binding experiments, wild type or G13D mutated HRas was dissolved in 500 μL of the same [D11]-Tris buffer, containing an amount of GDP equimolar to the protein, and transferred into a 5 mm NMR tube; 50 μL of the ligand solution dissolved in the same buffer were added slowly. Final protein concentration was 50 µM, final ligand concentration was 1 mM.
STD experiments were performed without saturation of the residual HDO signal and with spin-lock to avoid the presence of protein resonances in the spectra. A train of Gaussian-shaped pulses of 50 ms each was employed, with a total saturation time of the protein envelope of 2 s. An off-resonance frequency of δ = 40 ppm and on-resonance frequency δ = −1.5 ppm (protein aliphatic signals region) were applied. Spectra were acquired with a Varian Mercury 400 MHz instrument and processed using the program Mestre-Nova 9.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
