Studying the reactivity of alkyl substituted BODIPYs: first enantioselective addition of BODIPY to MBH carbonates.

ABSTRACT: The first enantioselective addition of alkyl BODIPYs to Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates is reported. This is the first reported enantioselective methodology using the methylene position of BODIPYs as a nucleophile. The reaction is efficiently catalyzed by cinchona alkaloids, achieving high enantioselectivities and total diastereoselectivity. The use of cinchona alkaloid pseudo enantiomers (chinine/cinchonine) allows us to obtain both pairs of enantiomers in similar yields and enantioselectivities, a common issue in this type of reaction. The photophysical study of these dyes (absorption and fluorescence) has been performed in order to determine their parameters and explore future possible application in bioimaging. In addition, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) studies supported by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations were also performed.

Enantioselective bifunctional iminophosphorane catalyzed sulfa-Michael addition of alkyl thiols to unactivated β-substituted-α,β-unsaturated esters.

Project description:The highly enantioselective sulfa-Michael addition of alkyl thiols to unactivated β-substituted-α,β-unsaturated esters catalyzed by a bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) organocatalyst is described. The low acidity of the alkyl thiol pro-nucleophiles is overcome by the high Brønsted basicity of the catalyst and the chiral scaffold/thiourea hydrogen-bond donor moiety provides the required enantiofacial discrimination in the addition step. The reaction is broad in scope with respect to the alkyl thiol and β-substituent of the α,β-unsaturated ester, affords sulfa-Michael adducts in excellent yields (up to >99%) and enantioselectivity (up to 97 : 3 er) and can operate down to 1 mol% catalyst loading.

Structure-Dependent Developmental Toxicity of Alkyl-Substituted Naphthalenes

Project description:Naphthalene and its alkyl-substituted derivatives are among the most abundant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in environmental and human exposure studies, yet their developmental toxicity and mode of action remain poorly understood due to challenges in testing of semi-volatile compounds. This study developed a vial based high through-put method to effectively assess the activity of naphthalenes and a set of 24 alkyl-substituted naphthalenes. Early life stage zebrafish were exposed to a concentration series of each chemical (0-50 µM) in rotating sealed glass vials to minimize volatilization. Benchmark concentration (BMC50) values were calculated for morphological endpoints and lowest effect levels were determined for behavioral effects. The data were assessed for evidence of a narcotic mode of action using body burden measurements for select chemicals and logKow modeling. Targeted transcriptomics at a single concentration and timepoint as well as in silico molecular docking were conducted to generate mode of action hypothesis. The vial method enabled detection of highly variable developmental toxicity not previously observed using standard 96-well plate exposures. LogKow and body burden were poor predictors of toxicity, suggesting a non-narcotic mode of action. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a limited but notable set of differentially expressed genes, with evidence for the disruption of glucocorticoid signaling pathways. Molecular docking identified potential protein targets (e.g., CYP1A2, NT5E, FOLR1) that may mediate observed effects. This study demonstrates the importance of appropriate exposure methods for semi-volatile compounds, reveals structure-dependent toxicity among alkyl-substituted naphthalenes, and provides a foundation for further mechanistic studies and improved risk assessment of alkyl-substituted PAHs.

Bifunctional iminophosphorane catalysed enantioselective sulfa-Michael addition of alkyl thiols to alkenyl benzimidazoles.

Project description:The first enantioselective sulfa-Michael addition of alkyl thiols to alkenyl benzimidazoles, enabled by a bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) organocatalyst, is described. The iminophosphorane moiety of the catalyst provides the required basicity to deprotonate the thiol nucleophile while the chiral scaffold and H-bond donor control facial selectivity. The reaction is broad in scope with respect to the thiol and benzimidazole reaction partners with the reaction proceeding in up to 98% yield and 96 : 4 er.

A Triazole-Substituted Aryl Iodide with Omnipotent Reactivity in Enantioselective Oxidations.

Project description:A widely applicable triazole-substituted chiral aryl iodide is described as catalyst for enantioselective oxidation reactions. The introduction of a substituent in ortho-position to the iodide is key for its high reactivity and selectivity. Besides a robust and modular synthesis, the main advantage of this catalyst is the excellent performance in a plethora of mechanistically diverse enantioselective transformations, such as spirocyclizations, phenol dearomatizations, α-oxygenations, and oxidative rearrangements. DFT-calculations of in situ generated [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]arene isomers give an initial rational for the observed reactivity.

Squaramide-catalyzed enantioselective Michael addition of masked acyl cyanides to substituted enones.

Project description:Masked acyl cyanide (MAC) reagents are shown to be effective umpolung synthons for enantioselective Michael addition to substituted enones. The reactions are catalyzed by chiral squaramides and afford adducts in high yields (90-99%) and with excellent enantioselectivities (85-98%). The addition products are unmasked to produce dicyanohydrins that, upon treatment with a variety of nucleophiles, provide γ-keto acids, esters, and amides. The use of this umpolung synthon has enabled, in enantiomerically enriched form, the first total synthesis of the prenylated phenol (+)-fornicin C.

Palladium-catalyzed enantioselective decarboxylative allylic alkylation of fully substituted <i>N</i>-acyl indole-derived enol carbonates.

Project description:The first enantioselective palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative allylic alkylation of fully substituted N-acyl indole-derived enol carbonates forming acyclic all-carbon quaternary stereocenters is reported. Excellent yields up to 99% and enantioselectivities up to 98% ee are obtained through the use of a new electron-deficient phosphinoxazoline (PHOX) ligand. Control of substrate enolate geometry is crucial for high selectivity. The obtained α-quaternary N-acyl indoles are formal ester equivalents, and represent a useful handle for further synthetic transformations.

Chiral Bronsted base-promoted nitroalkane alkylation: enantioselective synthesis of sec-alkyl-3-substituted indoles.

Project description:A Brønsted base-catalyzed reaction of nitroalkanes with alkyl electrophiles provides indole heterocycles substituted at C3 bearing a sec-alkyl group with good enantioselectivity (up to 90% ee). Denitration by hydrogenolysis provides a product with equally high ee. An indolenine intermediate is implicated in the addition step, and surprisingly, water cosolvent was found to have a beneficial effect in this step, leading to a one-pot protocol for elimination/enantioselective addition using PBAM, a bis(amidine) chiral nonracemic base.
