Substituted Imidazoline Synthesis: A Diastereo- and Enantioselective aza-Henry Route to a Human Proteasome Modulator.

ABSTRACT: The first enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of Tepe's human proteasome modulator is described. Routes to this and other highly substituted chiral imidazolines generally produce racemic material. Key to the route disclosed here is a gram-scale anti-selective aza-Henry reaction of an α-alkyl α-nitro ester nucleophile, catalyzed by a Bis(Amidine) [BAM] chiral proton complex, delivering the key intermediate in high yield as a single stereoisomer. The adduct is reduced to the amino ester and converted to an imidazoline.

Phosphoramidite gold(I)-catalyzed diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of 3,4-substituted pyrrolidines.

Project description:In this article the utility of phosphoramidite ligands in enantioselective Au(I) catalysis was explored in the development of highly diastereo- and enantioselective Au(I)-catalyzed cycloadditions of allenenes. A Au(I)-catalyzed synthesis of 3,4-disubstituted pyrrolidines and γ-lactams is described. This reaction proceeds through the enantioselective Au(I)-catalyzed cyclization of allenenes to form a carbocationic intermediate that is trapped by an exogenous nucleophile, resulting in the highly diastereoselective construction of three contiguous stereogenic centers. A computational study (DFT) was also performed to gain some insight into the underlying mechanisms of these cycloadditions. The utility of this new methodology was demonstrated through the formal synthesis of (-)-isocynometrine.

Aza-Henry Reactions on C-Alkyl Substituted Aldimines.

Project description:The reactivity of C-CH₃ substituted N-protected aldimines in aza-Henry addition reactions was compared with that of the analogous trifluoromethylated compounds. C-Alkyl aldimines easily reacted with nitro alkanes under solvent-free conditions and in the absence of catalyst, despite being worse electrophiles than C-CF₃ aldimines, they gave the aza-Henry addition only when ZrCl₄ was added. The presence of a bulky group on the imine carbon deeply influenced the reactivity.

Diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of compounds with a trifluoromethyl- and fluoro-substituted carbon centre.

Project description:Molecules that contain one or more fluorine atoms are crucial to drug discovery. There are protocols available for the selective synthesis of different organofluorine compounds, including those with a fluoro-substituted or a trifluoromethyl-substituted stereogenic carbon centre. However, approaches for synthesizing compounds with a trifluoromethyl- and fluoro-substituent stereogenic carbon centre are far less common. This potentially impactful set of molecules thus remains severely underdeveloped. Here we introduce a catalytic regio-, diastereo- and enantioselective strategy for the preparation of homoallylic alcohols bearing a stereogenic carbon centre bound to a trifluoromethyl group and a fluorine atom. The process, which involves a polyfluoroallyl boronate and is catalysed by an in situ-formed organozinc complex, can be used for diastereodivergent preparation of tetrafluoro-monosaccharides, including ribose core analogues of the antiviral drug sofosbuvir (Sovaldi). Unexpected reactivity/selectivity profiles, probably originating from the trifluoromethyl- and fluoro-substituted carbon site, are discovered, foreshadowing other unique chemistries that remain unknown.

Highly Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of Nitrile-Substituted Cyclopropanes by Myoglobin-Mediated Carbene Transfer Catalysis.

Project description:A chemobiocatalytic strategy for the highly stereoselective synthesis of nitrile-substituted cyclopropanes is reported. The present approach relies on an asymmetric olefin cyclopropanation reaction catalyzed by an engineered myoglobin in the presence of ex situ generated diazoacetonitrile within a compartmentalized reaction system. This method enabled the efficient transformation of a broad range of olefin substrates at a preparative scale with up to 99.9 % de and ee and up to 5600 turnovers. The enzymatic product could be further elaborated to afford a variety of functionalized chiral cyclopropanes. This work expands the range of synthetically valuable, abiotic transformations accessible through biocatalysis and paves the way to the practical and safe exploitation of diazoacetonitrile in biocatalytic carbene transfer reactions.

Highly Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of Trifluoromethyl-Substituted Cyclopropanes via Myoglobin-Catalyzed Transfer of Trifluoromethylcarbene.

Project description:We report an efficient strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of trifluoromethyl-substituted cyclopropanes by means of myoglobin-catalyzed olefin cyclopropanation reactions in the presence of 2-diazo-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (CF3CHN2) as the carbene donor. These transformations were realized using a two-compartment setup in which ex situ generated gaseous CF3CHN2 is processed by engineered myoglobin catalysts expressed in bacterial cells. This approach was successfully applied to afford a variety of trans-1-trifluoromethyl-2-arylcyclopropanes in high yields (61-99%) and excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity (97-99.9% de and ee). Furthermore, mirror-image forms of these products could be obtained using myoglobin variants featuring stereodivergent selectivity. These reactions provide a convenient and effective biocatalytic route to the stereoselective synthesis of key fluorinated building blocks of high value for medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. This work expands the range of carbene-mediated transformations accessible via metalloprotein catalysts and introduces a potentially general strategy for exploiting gaseous and/or hard-to-handle carbene donor reagents in biocatalytic carbene transfer reactions.

Palladium-catalyzed diastereo- and enantioselective formal [3 + 2]-cycloadditions of substituted vinylcyclopropanes.

Project description:We describe a palladium-catalyzed diastereo- and enantioselective formal [3 + 2]-cycloaddition between substituted vinylcyclopropanes and electron-deficient olefins in the form of azlactone- and Meldrum's acid alkylidenes to give highly substituted cyclopentane products. By modulation of the electronic properties of the vinylcyclopropane and the electron-deficient olefin, high levels of stereoselectivity were obtained. The remote stereoinduction afforded by the catalyst, distal from the chiral pocket generated by the ligand, is proposed to be the result of a new mechanism invoking the Curtin-Hammett principle.

Palladium-catalyzed regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective benzylic allylation of 2-substituted pyridines.

Project description:We report a new method for the highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation of 2-substituted pyridines that allows for the formation of homoallylic stereocenters containing alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, and nitrogen substituents. When the reaction is conducted with asymmetric acyclic electrophiles, both linear and branched products may be obtained exclusively by selecting the appropriate regioisomeric starting material and ligand, an example of the "memory effect." Deuterium-labeling studies reveal that though no such phenomenon occurs with racemic cyclic electrophiles, the chiral ligand employed reacts kinetically faster with the enantiomer of the substrate for which it is "matched" and yet eventually converts all "mismatched" substrate to product.

Enantioselective synthesis of angularly substituted 1-azabicyclic ring systems: dynamic kinetic resolution using aza-Cope rearrangements.

Project description:A useful enantioselective synthesis of angularly substituted 1-azabicyclic molecules that delivers the bicyclic amine products in good yield and 99% ee is reported. Angularly substituted cis-octahydrocyclopenta[b]pyrroles, cis-octahydroindoles, cis-decahydrocyclohepta[b]pyrroles, and cis-octahydrocyclopenta[b]pyridine are formed in good yields and 99% ee exclusively as the cis stereoisomers. Decahydroquinolines are generated as mixtures of cis and trans stereoisomers in similarly high ee. The starting materials for this cascade transformation are assembled in five steps from cycloalkanones and enantiomerically pure (R)-2-phenyl-3-butenamine. This enantioselective synthesis introduces a new strategy for dynamic kinetic resolution in which a rapid tautomeric equilibration of diastereomeric iminium cations is combined with a diastereoselective sigmatropic rearrangement.

Fluorine-induced diastereodivergence discovered in an equally rare enantioselective <i>syn</i>-aza-Henry reaction.

Project description:Attention to the aza-Henry reaction, particularly over the past two decades, has resulted in a wide range of effective catalysts for the enantio- and diastereoselective versions, driven by the versatility of the β-amino nitroalkane products as precursors to secondary amines and vic-diamines. Despite this broad effort, syn-diastereoselective variants are exceedingly rare. We have discovered a subset of α-fluoro nitroalkane additions that are characterized by an unusual crossover in diastereoselection, often delivering the products with high selectivities. We report here a rigorous comparative analysis of non-fluorinated and α-fluoro nitroalkanes in their additions to azomethines. Both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis were applied to probe the possibility that this phenomenon might be more widely operative in the enantioselective additions of fluorine-substituted carbon nucleophiles. A complete correlation within four categories is described that uncovered a clear trend, while revealing a dramatic and distinct reversal of diastereoselection that would normally go undetected.

Organocatalytic cascade aza-Michael/hemiacetal reaction between disubstituted hydrazines and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes: Highly diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of pyrazolidine derivatives.

Project description:The catalytic synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocycles is of great importance to medicinal and synthetic chemists, and also a challenge for modern chemical methodology. In this paper, we report the synthesis of pyrazolidine derivatives through a domino aza-Michael/hemiacetal sequence with chiral or achiral secondary amines as organocatalysts. Thus, a series of achiral pyrazolidine derivatives were obtained with good yields (up to 90%) and high diastereoselectivities (>20:1) with pyrrolidine as an organocatalyst, and enantioenriched pyrazolidines are also achieved with good results (up to 86% yield, >10/1 regioselectivity, >20:1 dr, 99% ee) in the presence of (S)-diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether catalyst.
