Highly diastereoselective synthesis of tricyclic fused-pyrans by sequential hydride shift mediated double C(sp³)-H bond functionalization.

ABSTRACT: Described herein is the Brønsted acid-catalyzed double C(sp³)-H bond functionalization of alkyl phenethyl ether derivatives. In this process, a [1,5]-[1,5]-hydride shift occurred successively to afford tricyclic fused pyran derivatives in excellent chemical yields with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to >20 : 1). The key to achieve this reaction was the introduction of two methyl groups at the benzylic position, which was effective in both hydride shift processes: (1) the Thorpe-Ingold effect for the first hydride shift and (2) conformational control in the second hydride shift.

Intercepted-Knoevenagel condensation for the synthesis of unsymmetrical fused-tricyclic 4H-pyrans.

Project description:4H-Pyrans (4H-Pys) and 1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs) are important classes of heterocyclic scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. Herein, an indium(III)-catalyzed one-pot domino reaction for the synthesis of highly functionalized 4H-Pys, and a model of 1,4-DHP is reported. This alternative approach to the challenging Hantzsch 4-component reaction enables the synthesis of fused-tricyclic heterocycles, and the mechanistic studies underline the importance of an intercepted-Knoevenagel adduct to achieve higher chemoselectivity towards these types of unsymmetrical heterocycles.

Expeditious diastereoselective synthesis of elaborated ketones via remote Csp3-H functionalization.

Project description:The quest for selective C-H functionalization reactions, able to provide new strategic opportunities for the rapid assembly of molecular complexity, represents a major focus of the chemical community. Examples of non-directed, remote Csp3-H activation to forge complex carbon frameworks remain scarce due to the kinetic stability and thus intrinsic challenge associated to the chemo-, regio- and stereoselective functionalization of aliphatic C-H bonds. Here we describe a radical-mediated, directing-group-free regioselective 1,5-hydrogen transfer of unactivated Csp3-H bonds followed by a second Csp2-H functionalization to produce, with exquisite stereoselectivity, a variety of elaborated fused ketones. This study demonstrates that aliphatic acids can be strategically harnessed as 1,2-diradical synthons and that secondary aliphatic C-H bonds can be engaged in stereoselective C-C bond-forming reactions, highlighting the potential of this protocol for target-oriented natural product and pharmaceutical synthesis.

Preparation of neuroprotective condensed 1,4-benzoxazepines by regio- and diastereoselective domino Knoevenagel-[1,5]-hydride shift cyclization reaction.

Project description:Condensed O,N-heterocycles containing tetrahydro-1,4-benzoxazepine and tetrahydroquinoline moieties were prepared by a regio- and diastereoselective domino Knoevenagel-[1,5]-hydride shift cyclization reaction of a 4-aryl-2-phenyl-1,4-benzoxazepine derivative obtained from flavanone. The relative configuration of products were determined by the correlation of (3) J H,H coupling data with the geometry of major conformers accessed by DFT conformational analysis. Separated enantiomers of the products were characterized by HPLC-ECD data, which allowed their configurational assignment on the basis of TDDFT-ECD calculation of the solution conformers. Two compounds showed neuroprotective activities against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or β-amyloid25-35 (Aβ25-35)-induced cellular injuries in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells in the range of those of positive controls.

C-H bond functionalization via hydride transfer: synthesis of dihydrobenzopyrans from ortho-vinylaryl akyl ethers.

Project description:The hydride transfer initiated cyclization ("HT-cyclization") of aryl alkyl ethers, which leads to direct coupling of sp(3) C-H bonds and activated alkenes, is reported. Readily available salicylaldehyde derived ethers are converted in one step to dihydrobenzopyrans, an important class of heteroarenes frequently found in biologically active compounds. This process has not been previously reported, in contrast to known HT-cyclizations of the corresponding tert-amines ("tert-amino effect" reactions).

Selective Csp3-F Bond Functionalization with Lithium Iodide.

Project description:A highly efficient method for C-F bond functionalization of a broad variety of activated and unactivated aliphatic substrates with inexpensive lithium iodide is presented. Primary, secondary, tertiary, benzylic, propargylic and α-functionalized alkyl fluorides react in chlorinated or aromatic solvents at room temperature or upon heating to the corresponding iodides which are isolated in 91-99% yield. The reaction is selective for aliphatic monofluorides and can be coupled with in situ nucleophilic iodide replacements to install carbon-carbon, carbon-nitrogen and carbon-sulfur bonds with high yields. Alkyl difluorides, trifluorides, even in activated benzylic positions, are inert under the same conditions and aryl fluoride bonds are also tolerated.

Bronsted Acid-Mediated Domino One-Pot Dual C-C Bond Formation: Chemoselective Synthesis of Fused Tricyclic Ketones.

Project description:A chemoselective synthesis of fused novel tricyclic motifs via a facile domino intramolecular cyclization is presented. The strategy enables the formation of dual C-C bond via intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation followed by acylation to accomplish fused tricyclic ketones. Significantly, these fused tricyclic compounds are ubiquitous and constitute major structural cores of natural products.

Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of cyclopentane-fused benzocyclobutenes via tandem directed carbopalladation/C-H bond functionalization.

Project description:A new Pd-catalyzed reaction for the stereoselective synthesis of cyclopentane-fused benzocyclobutenes is described. These transformations likely proceed via carbamate-directed carbopalladation followed by intramolecular C-H activation of an alkylpalladium intermediate. The mechanistic relationship between these transformations and Pd-catalyzed reactions of gamma-(n-Boc-amino)alkenes with aryl bromides that afford pyrrolidines is discussed. Differences in reactivity between Pd-amino and Pd-amido complexes appear to play a key role in the outcome of these transformations.

Sequential Enzymatic Conversion of α-Angelica Lactone to γ-Valerolactone through Hydride-Independent C=C Bond Isomerization.

Project description:A case of hydride-independent reaction catalyzed by flavin-dependent ene-reductases from the Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE) family was identified. α-Angelica lactone was isomerized to the conjugated β-isomer in a nicotinamide-free and hydride-independent process. The catalytic cycle of C=C bond isomerization appears to be flavin-independent and to rely solely on a deprotonation-reprotonation sequence through acid-base catalysis. Key residues in the enzyme active site were mutated and provided insight on important mechanistic features. The isomerization of α-angelica lactone by OYE2 in aqueous buffer furnished 6.3 mm β-isomer in 15 min at 30 °C. In presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), the latter could be further reduced to γ-valerolactone. This enzymatic tool was successfully applied on semi-preparative scale and constitutes a sustainable process for the valorization of platform chemicals from renewable resources.

Diastereoselective synthesis and biological evaluation of enantiomerically pure tricyclic indolines.

Project description:Tricyclic indolines are common in both natural products and synthetic chemical probes. In this study we demonstrated that enantiomerically pure tricyclic indolines can be prepared from an inexpensive commercially available chiral starting material, pyroglutamic acid. The synthesis features a highly diastereoselective gold-catalyzed cyclization of alkyne-tethered indoles and subsequent diastereoselective reductive ring-opening reaction. Using this approach, we synthesized analogs of our previously discovered tricyclic indoline probes that possess antibacterial and resistance-modifying activity. The biological activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) of these analogues was evaluated and reported. The synthetic approach reported may be leveraged in the future to prepare diastereopure chemical probes for the determination of biological targets for drug discovery.

Copper-catalyzed diastereoselective aerobic intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling of hydrazones via sp3 C-H functionalization.

Project description:Transition metal-catalyzed cross dehydrogenative coupling is an important tool for functionalization of the α Csp3-H bond of amines. Among this reaction category, copper-catalyzed selective C-C bond formation under atmospheric O2 is of considerable research interest and significant progress has been achieved in recent years. In comparison, development of the intramolecular version of this transformation is still in its infancy. Furthermore, diastereoselective cyclization with this transformation has not been achieved. Here, we describe the highly diastereoselective intramolecular dehydrogenative cyclization of N,N-disubstituted hydrazones by a copper-catalyzed sp3 C-H bond functionalization process. The reaction protocol utilizes O2 as the oxidant and shows great functional group compatibility. Computational studies suggest that a 5-center/6-electron disrotatory cyclization mechanism is probably involved in the process for controlling the diastereoselectivity. This work represents the first example of a copper-catalyzed, direct intramolecular diastereoselective coupling reaction via an iminium ion intermediate. Additionally, it provides an environmentally friendly and atom efficient approach to access substituted pyrazolines, an important structural unit in many biologically active compounds.
