Determination of absolute configuration using kinetic resolution catalysts.

ABSTRACT: A new method was developed to assign the absolute configuration of molecules using kinetic resolution catalysts. Secondary alcohols were acylated in the presence of Birman's S-HBTM and R-HBTM catalysts, and the fast-reacting catalyst was identified by NMR analysis of the reaction mixture. A mnemonic was developed to assign configuration based on the identity of the fast-reacting catalyst. The method uses only 1-3 mg of alcohol, and it is more convenient than the Mosher method. The kinetic resolution strategy may be extended to other classes of molecules.

Determination of absolute configuration of secondary alcohols using thin-layer chromatography.

Project description:A new implementation of the competing enantioselective conversion (CEC) method was developed to qualitatively determine the absolute configuration of enantioenriched secondary alcohols using thin-layer chromatography. The entire process for the method requires approximately 60 min and utilizes micromole quantities of the secondary alcohol being tested. A number of synthetically relevant secondary alcohols are presented. Additionally, (1)H NMR spectroscopy was conducted on all samples to provide evidence of reaction conversion that supports the qualitative method presented herein.

Kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols using amidine-based catalysts.

Project description:Kinetic resolution of racemic alcohols has been traditionally achieved via enzymatic enantioselective esterification and ester hydrolysis. However, there has long been considerable interest in devising nonenzymatic alternative methods for this transformation. Amidine-based catalysts (ABCs), a new class of enantioselective acyl transfer catalysts developed in our group, have demonstrated, inter alia, high efficacy in the kinetic resolution of benzylic, allylic, and propargylic secondary alcohols and 2-substituted cycloalkanols, and thus provide a viable alternative to enzymes.

Determination of the Absolute Configuration of ?-Chiral Primary Alcohols Using the Competing Enantioselective Conversion Method.

Project description:A method for determining the absolute configuration of ?-chiral primary alcohols has been developed. Enantioenriched alcohols were acylated in the presence of either enantiomer of the enantioselective acylation catalyst HBTM, and the faster reaction was determined by measuring product conversion using 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis. An empirical mnemonic was developed that correlates the absolute configuration of the alcohol to the faster reacting catalyst. Successful substrates for this method include primary alcohols that bear a "directing group" on the stereogenic center; directing groups include arenes, heteroarenes, enones, and halides.

Absolute Configuration Determination of Retroflexanone Using the Advanced Mosher Method and Application of HPLC-NMR.

Project description:The absolute configuration of retroflexanone (1) and a closely related phlorogluinol (2) was established using the advanced Mosher method and by application of HPLC-NMR. HPLC-NMR permitted a small scale Mosher method analysis to be carried out on these unstable phloroglucinols.

Determination of the absolute configuration of compounds bearing chiral quaternary carbon centers using the crystalline sponge method.

Project description:Determination of the absolute configuration of chiral tetra-substituted carbon centers is one of the most taxing steps in the enantioselective construction of this structural motif in asymmetric synthesis. Here, we demonstrate that the crystalline sponge method provides an effective way to crystallographically determine the absolute configuration of organic compounds bearing chiral quaternary carbons (including tetra-substituted ones) that are synthesized by recently developed enantioselective catalytic reactions.

Total synthesis and determination of the absolute configuration of a natural analgesic: crotonine

Project description:We report the first total synthesis of four possible absolute configurations and four other regional isomers of a naturally occurring alkaloid crotonine, which was isolated from Croton tiglium L. (Euphoriaceae) without elucidation of its absolute configuration. The concise five-step route with a chirally poor and regioselective strategy starting from monosaccharides was established, and the absolute structure of the natural crotonine was determined by comparison of the NMR spectra and optical rotations of the synthetic products. Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at 10.1007/s13659-013-0080-1 and is accessible for authorized users.

Insight into GEBR-32a: Chiral Resolution, Absolute Configuration and Enantiopreference in PDE4D Inhibition.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia, affecting millions of people worldwide. One of its main consequences is memory loss, which is related to downstream effectors of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). A well-established strategy to avoid cAMP degradation is the inhibition of phosphodiesterase (PDE). In recent years, GEBR-32a has been shown to possess selective inhibitory properties against PDE type 4 family members, resulting in an improvement in spatial memory processes without the typical side effects that are usually correlated with this mechanism of action. In this work, we performed the HPLC chiral resolution and absolute configuration assignment of GEBR-32a. We developed an efficient analytical and semipreparative chromatographic method exploiting an amylose-based stationary phase, we studied the chiroptical properties of both enantiomers and we assigned their absolute configuration by 1H-NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance). Lastly, we measured the IC50 values of both enantiomers against both the PDE4D catalytic domain and the long PDE4D3 isoform. Results strongly support the notion that GEBR-32a inhibits the PDE4D enzyme by interacting with both the catalytic pocket and the regulatory domains.

Studies Culminating in the Total Synthesis and Determination of the Absolute Configuration of (-)-Saudin.

Project description:A full account of studies that culminated in the total synthesis of both antipodes and the assignment of its absolute configuration of Saudin, a hypoglycemic natural product. Two approaches are described, the first proceeding though bicyclic lactone intermediates and related second monocyclic esters. The former was obtained via asymmetric Diels-Alder cycloaddition and the latter by an asymmetric annulation protocol. Both approaches employ a Lewis acid promoted Claisen rearrangement, with the successful approach taking advantage of bidentate chelation to control the facial selectivity of the key Claisen rearrangement.

Glucopyranosylidene-Spiro-Thiazolinones: Synthetic Studies and Determination of Absolute Configuration by TDDFT-ECD Calculations.

Project description:Reactions of O-peracylated C-(1-bromo-?-d-glucopyranosyl)formamides with thioamides furnished the corresponding glucopyranosylidene-spiro-thiazolin-4-one. While O-debenzoylations under a variety of conditions resulted in decomposition, during O-deacetylations the addition of MeOH to the thiazolinone moiety was observed, and with EtOH and water similar adducts were isolated or detected. The structure and stereochemistry of the new compounds were established by means of NMR and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data supported by time-dependent density functional theory ECD (TDDFT-ECD) calculations. TDDFT-ECD calculations could efficiently distinguish the proposed epimeric products having different absolute configuration in the spiro heterocyclic ring.

Absolute configuration of odorine.

Project description:The title compound, known as odorine or roxburghiline {systematic name: (S)-N-[(R)-1-cinnamoylpyrrolidin-2-yl]-2-methyl-butanamide}, C(18)H(24)N(2)O(2), is a nitro-genous compound isolated from the leaves of Aglaia odorata. The absolute configuration was determined by refinement of the Flack parameter with data collected using Cu Kα radiation showing positions 2 and 2' to be S and R, respectively. The pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into chains along [010] by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
