Nitrosobenzene-mediated C-C bond cleavage reactions and spectral observation of an oxazetidin-4-one ring system.

ABSTRACT: While bond formation processes have traditionally garnered the attention of the chemical community, methods facilitating bond breaking remain relatively undeveloped. We report a novel, transition-metal-free oxidative C-C bond cleavage process for a broad range of ester and dicarbonyl compounds involving carbanion addition to nitrosobenzene. ReactIR experiments on the nitrosobenzene-mediated oxidative decarboxylation of esters indicate the reaction proceeds via fragmentation of a previously unobserved oxazetidin-4-one heterocycle, characterized by an intense IR stretching frequency at 1846 cm-1. These mechanistic studies have allowed further expansion of this protocol to ketone cleavage reactions of a diverse array of beta-ketoester and 1,3-diketone substrates. The conceptual and mechanistic insights offered by this study are likely to provide a platform for further development of bond-breaking methodologies.

Ring Opening Reactions through C-O Bond Cleavage Uniquely Adding Chemical Functionality to Boron Subphthalocyanine.

Project description:We are reporting the unexpected reaction between bromo-boron subphthalocyanine (Br-BsubPc) and THF, 1,4-dioxane or γ-butyrolactone that results in the ring opening of the solvent and its addition into the BsubPc moiety. Under heating, the endocyclic C-O bond of the solvent is cleaved and the corresponding bromoalkoxy-BsubPc derivative is obtained. These novel alkoxy-BsubPc derivatives have remaining alkyl-bromides suitable for further functionalization. The alkoxy-BsubPcs maintain the characteristic strongly absorption in visible spectrum and their fluorescence quantum yields.

Expanding Transition Metal-Mediated Bioorthogonal Decaging to Include C-C Bond Cleavage Reactions.

Project description:The ability to control the activation of prodrugs by transition metals has been shown to have great potential for controlled drug release in cancer cells. However, the strategies developed so far promote the cleavage of C-O or C-N bonds, which limits the scope of drugs to only those that present amino or hydroxyl groups. Here, we report the decaging of an ortho-quinone prodrug, a propargylated β-lapachone derivative, through a palladium-mediated C-C bond cleavage. The reaction's kinetic and mechanistic behavior was studied under biological conditions along with computer modeling. The results indicate that palladium (II) is the active species for the depropargylation reaction, activating the triple bond for nucleophilic attack by a water molecule before the C-C bond cleavage takes place. Palladium iodide nanoparticles were found to efficiently trigger the C-C bond cleavage reaction under biocompatible conditions. In drug activation assays in cells, the protected analogue of β-lapachone was activated by nontoxic amounts of nanoparticles, which restored drug toxicity. The palladium-mediated ortho-quinone prodrug activation was further demonstrated in zebrafish tumor xenografts, which resulted in a significant anti-tumoral effect. This work expands the transition-metal-mediated bioorthogonal decaging toolbox to include cleavage of C-C bonds and payloads that were previously not accessible by conventional strategies.

Dicationic ring-opening reactions of trans-2-phenylcyclopropylamine·HCl: electrophilic cleavage of the distal (C2-C3) bond of cyclopropanes.

Project description:Electrophilic ring opening of trans-2-phenylcyclopropylamine·HCl occurs at the distal (C2-C3) bond. This is consistent with weakening of the distal bond by the σ-withdrawing ammonium group and charge-charge repulsive effects in the transition state.

Carbon-fluorine bond cleavage mediated by metalloenzymes.

Project description:Fluorochemicals are a widely distributed class of compounds and have been utilized across a wide range of industries for decades. Given the environmental toxicity and adverse health threats of some fluorochemicals, the development of new methods for their decomposition is significant to public health. However, the carbon-fluorine (C-F) bond is among the most chemically robust bonds; consequently, the degradation of fluorinated hydrocarbons is exceptionally difficult. Here, metalloenzymes that catalyze the cleavage of this chemically challenging bond are reviewed. These enzymes include histidine-ligated heme-dependent dehaloperoxidase and tyrosine hydroxylase, thiolate-ligated heme-dependent cytochrome P450, and four nonheme oxygenases, namely, tetrahydrobiopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, 2-oxoglutarate-dependent hydroxylase, Rieske dioxygenase, and thiol dioxygenase. While much of the literature regarding the aforementioned enzymes highlights their ability to catalyze C-H bond activation and functionalization, in many cases, the C-F bond cleavage has been shown to occur on fluorinated substrates. A copper-dependent laccase-mediated system representing an unnatural radical defluorination approach is also described. Detailed discussions on the structure-function relationships and catalytic mechanisms provide insights into biocatalytic defluorination, which may inspire drug design considerations and environmental remediation of halogenated contaminants.

Aromatic cations from oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage in bimolecular carbon-carbon bond forming reactions.

Project description:Chromenes and isochromenes react quickly with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to form persistent aromatic oxocarbenium ions through oxidative carbon-hydrogen cleavage. This process is tolerant of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups on the benzene ring and additional substitution on the pyran ring. A variety of nucleophiles can be added to these cations to generate a diverse set of structures.

Bond cleavage, fragment modification and reassembly in enantioselective three-component reactions.

Project description:Chemical bond cleavage and reconstruction are common processes in traditional rearrangement reactions. In contrast, the process that involves bond cleavage, fragment modification and then reconstruction of the modified fragment provides an efficient way to build structurally diversified molecules. Here, we report a palladium(II)/chiral phosphoric acid catalysed three-component reaction of aryldiazoacetates, enamines and imines to afford α-amino-δ-oxo pentanoic acid derivatives in good yields with excellent diastereoselectivities and high enantioselectivities. The stereoselective reaction went through a unique process that involves cleavage of a C-N bond, modification of the resulting amino fragment and selective reassembly of the modified fragment. This innovative multi-component process represents a highly efficient way to build structurally diversified polyfunctional molecules in an atom and step economic fashion. A keto-iminium is proposed as a key intermediate and a chiral palladium/phosphate complex is proposed as an active catalyst.

Portable astronomical observation system based on large-aperture concentric-ring metalens.

Project description:The core advantage of metalenses over traditional bulky lenses lies in their thin volume and lightweight. Nevertheless, as the application scenarios of metalenses extend to the macro-scale optical imaging field, a contradiction arises between the increasing demand for large-aperture metalenses and the synchronous rise in design and processing costs. In response to the application requirements of metalens with diameter reaching the order of 104λ or even 105λ, this paper proposes a novel design method for fixed-height concentric-ring metalenses, wherein, under the constraints of the processing technology, a subwavelength 2D building unit library is constructed based on different topological structures, and the overall cross-section of the metalens is assembled. Compared to global structural optimization, this approach reduces computational resources and time consumption by several orders of magnitude while maintaining nearly identical focusing efficiency. As a result, a concentric-ring metalens with a designed wavelength of 632.8 nm and a diameter of 46.8 mm was developed, and a quasi-telecentric telescope system composed of aperture stop and metalens was constructed, achieving high-resolution detection within a 20° field of view. In the subsequent experiments, the unique weak polarization dependence and narrowband adaptability of the meta-camera are quantitatively analyzed and tested, and excellent imaging results were finally obtained. Our work not only ensures the narrowband optical performance but also promotes the simplicity and light weight of the metalens based telescopic system, which further advances the deep application of large-diameter metalenses in the field of astronomical observation.

Activity-Based Sensing of Ascorbate by Using Copper-Mediated Oxidative Bond Cleavage.

Project description:Ascorbate is an important biological reductant and enzyme cofactor. Although direct detection through ascorbate-mediated reduction is possible, this approach suffers from poor selectivity due to the wide range of cellular reducing agents. To overcome this limitation, we leverage reduction potential of ascorbate to mediate a copper-mediated oxidative bond cleavage of ether-caged fluorophores. The copper(II) complexes supported by a {bis(2-pyridylmethyl)}benzylamine or a {bis(2-pyridylmethyl)}(2-methoxybenzyl)amine ligand were identified as an ascorbate responsive unit and their reaction with ascorbate yields a copper-based oxidant that enables rapid benzylic oxidation and the release of an ether-caged dye (coumarin or fluorescein). The copper-mediated bond cleavage is specific to ascorbate and the trigger can be readily derivatized for tuning photophysical properties of the probes. The probes were successfully applied for the fluorometric detection of ascorbate in commercial food samples, human plasma, and serum, and within live cells by using confocal microscopy and flow cytometry.

Catalytic carbon-carbon bond cleavage in lignin via manganese-zirconium-mediated autoxidation.

Project description:Efforts to produce aromatic monomers through catalytic lignin depolymerization have historically focused on aryl-ether bond cleavage. A large fraction of aromatic monomers in lignin, however, are linked by various carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds that are more challenging to cleave and limit the yields of aromatic monomers from lignin depolymerization. Here, we report a catalytic autoxidation method to cleave C-C bonds in lignin-derived dimers and oligomers from pine and poplar. The method uses manganese and zirconium salts as catalysts in acetic acid and produces aromatic carboxylic acids as primary products. The mixtures of the oxygenated monomers are efficiently converted to cis,cis-muconic acid in an engineered strain of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 that conducts aromatic O-demethylation reactions at the 4-position. This work demonstrates that autoxidation of lignin with Mn and Zr offers a catalytic strategy to increase the yield of valuable aromatic monomers from lignin.
