    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments detail improved methods for the synthesis of diketopiperazines from amino acids. In particular improved methods for the cyclocondensation and purification of N-protected 3,6-(aminoalkyl)-2,5-diketopiperazines from N-protected amino acids. Disclosed embodiments describe methods for the synthesis of 3,6-bis-[N-protected aminoalkyl]-2,5-diketopiperazine comprising heating a mixture of an amino acid in the presence of a catalyst in an organic solvent. The catalyst is selected from the group comprising sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, 1-propylphosphonic acid cyclic anhydride, tributyl phosphate, phenyl phosphonic acid and phosphorous pentoxide among others. The solvent is selected from the group comprising: dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, diglyme, ethyl glyme, proglyme, ethyldiglyme, m-cresol, p-cresol, o-cresol, xylenes, ethylene glycol and phenol among others.

    Abstract: Provided herein is a class of anti-cancer conjugates designed to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and thereby deliver a methylation agent into cancerous tumor cells, wherein the conjugate comprises a BBB-shuttle moiety that allows the conjugate to cross the BBB, and at least two methylation moieties of the methyltriazene type attached thereto for effecting DNA methylation in the cancerous cells. Also provided are uses of the conjugates in the treatment of brain cancer.
