The Use of Aryl-Substituted Homophthalic Anhydrides in the Castagnoli-Cushman Reaction Provides Access to Novel Tetrahydroisoquinolone Carboxylic Acid Bearing an All-Carbon Quaternary Stereogenic Center.

ABSTRACT: Novel aryl-substituted homophthalic acids were cyclodehydrated to the respective homophthalic anhydrides for use in the Castagnoli-Cushman reaction. With a range of imines, this reaction proceeded smoothly and delivered hitherto undescribed 4-aryl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolonic acids with remarkable diastereoselectivity, good yields and no need for chromatographic purification. These findings significantly extend the range of cyclic anhydrides employable in the Castagnoli-Cushman reaction and signify access to a novel substitution pattern around the medicinally relevant tetrahydroisoquinolonic acid scaffold.

Trifluoroethanol Promoted Castagnoli-Cushman Cycloadditions of Imines with Homophthalic Anhydride.

Project description:Lactams are essential compounds in medicinal chemistry and key intermediates in the synthesis of natural products. The Castagnoli-Cushman reaction (CCR) of homophthalic anhydride with imines is an exciting method for accessing cyclic densely substituted lactam products. Most CCRs need to be catalyzed or heated. Herein, we report a new, efficient, metal and catalyst-free CCR for the synthesis of poly-substituted 3,4-lactams utilizing the unique properties of trifluoroethanol (TFE). This procedure provides high-speed and smooth access to a broad range of densely substituted 3,4-lactams in good yields and a 100% atom-economical fashion.

Opening of aryl-substituted epoxides to form quaternary stereogenic centers: synthesis of (-)-mesembrine.

Project description:[reaction: see text] Cycloalkanones are easily converted into aryl-substituted cyclic alkenes by the addition of an aryl Grignard reagent followed by dehydration. These alkenes are good substrates for asymmetric epoxidation. We have found that the addition of allylic and benzylic Grignard reagents can occur preferentially at the benzylic position of the derived epoxides to give the quaternary stereogenic center. This approach led to a short synthesis of the nanomolar serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (-)-mesembrine.

Enantioselective synthesis of allylboronates bearing a tertiary or quaternary B-substituted stereogenic carbon by NHC-Cu-catalyzed substitution reactions.

Project description:Allylic substitutions that afford alpha-substituted allylboronates bearing B-substituted tertiary or quaternary carbon stereogenic centers are presented. C-B bond-forming reactions, catalyzed by chiral bidentate Cu-NHC complexes, are performed in the presence of commercially available bis(pinacolato)diboron. Transformations proceed in high yield (up to >98%) and site selectivity (>98% S(N)2'), and in up to >99:1 enantiomer ratio. Trans- or cis-disubstituted alkenes can be used; alkyl- (linear as well as branched) and aryl-trisubstituted allylic carbonates serve as effective substrates. Allylboronates that bear a quaternary carbon center are air-stable and can be easily purified by silica gel chromatography; in contrast, secondary allylboronates cannot be purified in the same manner and are significantly less stable. Oxidation of the enantiomerically enriched products furnishes secondary or tertiary allylic alcohols, valuable small molecules that cannot be easily obtained in high enantiomeric purity by alternative synthesis or kinetic resolution approaches.

Fluoral Hydrate: A Perspective Substrate for the Castagnoli-Cushman Reaction.

Project description:The reactivity of azomethines based on trifluoroacetaldehyde hydrate in the Castagnoli-Cushman reaction (CCR) was researched. The impact of the nature of anhydrides explored on the reaction route was determined. The preparative procedures for the synthesis of N-substituted (3R*,4R*)-1-oxo-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-4-carboxylic and (1R*,2R*)-4-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine-1-carboxylic acids in gram scales were elaborated. It was shown that the trifluoromethyl group remarkably decreased the reactivity of azomethines in CCR. The mechanism for the formation of different products depending on the anhydride's nature was proposed.

Two Annulated Azaheterocyclic Cores Readily Available from a Single Tetrahydroisoquinolonic Castagnoli-Cushman Precursor.

Project description:A novel approach to indolo[3,2-c]isoquinoline and dibenzo[c,h][1,6]naphthyridine tetracyclic systems was discovered based on switchable reduction of 2-methoxy-3-(2-nitrophenyl)-1-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-4-carboxylic acid prepared via Castagnoli-Cushman reaction. Reduction with ammonium formate resulted in the expected selective transformation of the nitro group (thus providing access to substituted dibenzo[c,h][1,6]naphthyridine via cyclization and dehydrogenation). However, attempted reduction with sodium sulfide initiated a previously unknown reaction cascade including double reduction, cyclization, and decarboxylation, leading to formation of indolo[3,2-c]isoquinoline polyheterocycle in one synthetic step.

One-step route to tricyclic fused 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline systems via the Castagnoli-Cushman protocol.

Project description:The Castagnoli-Cushman reaction of 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines with glutaric anhydride, its oxygen and sulfur analogues was investigated as a one-step approach to the benzo[a]quinolizidine system and its heterocyclic analogs. An extension towards the pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline system was achieved with the use of succinic anhydride. The results are evidence of an unexplored method for the access of the aforementioned tricyclic annelated systems incorporating a bridgehead nitrogen atom. The structures and relative configurations of the new compounds were established by means of 1D and 2D NMR techniques. The reactions between 1-methyldihydroisoquinoline and glutaric, diglycolic and succinic anhydrides yielded unexpected isoquinoline derivatives containing an exocyclic double bond. The compounds prepared bear the potential to become building blocks for future synthetic bioactive molecules.

N-Substituted tertiary and O-substituted quaternary carbon stereogenic centers by site-, diastereo- and enantioselective vinylogous Mannich reactions.

Project description:A readily accessible small-molecule phosphine, derived from commercially available starting materials such as an enantiomerically pure amino acid, serves as the precursor to a Ag-based chiral complex that can be prepared and used in situ to promote a variety of enantioselective vinylogous Mannich (EVM) reactions that involve siloxypyrroles as reaction partners. Transformations with unsubstituted nucleophilic components proceed efficiently and with exceptional site- (γ vs α-addition), diastereo- and enantioselectivity [up to 98% yield, generally >98:2 γ/α and diastereomeric ratio (dr) and up to 99:1 enantiomeric ratio (er)]. The first examples of efficient, diastereo- and enantioselective vinylogous Mannich additions with 5-methyl-substituted siloxyfuran, resulting in the formation of O-substituted quaternary carbon stereogenic centers are presented as well. Appreciable efficiency and diastereo- and enantioselectivity (up to >98:2 dr and >99:1 er) is accompanied by formation of α-addition products that can be oxidatively removed.

Extending the Scope of the New Variant of the Castagnoli-Cushman Cyclocondensation onto <i>o</i>-Methyl Benzoic Acids Bearing Various Electron-Withdrawing Groups in the α-Position.

Project description:Based on the previously reported involvement of homophthalic acid monoesters in the Castagnoli-Cushman reaction-type cyclocondensation with imines, we tested a number of other o-methyl benzoic acids bearing various electron-withdrawing groups in the α-position. The majority of these substrates delivered the expected tetrahydroisoquinolone adducts on activation with CDI or acetic anhydride. Homophthalic acid mononitriles displayed the highest promise as substrates for the new reaction, both in terms of scope and product yields. Homophthalic acid monoamides either gave low yields or failed to react with imines. Sulfonyl-substituted substrates gave the desired (and hitherto unknown) type of tetrahydroisoquinolines. Despite the low yields, this approach to sulfonyl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines appears practical as alternative syntheses based on the traditional, carboxylic acid CCR adducts would presumably be cumbersome and multistep. The azido- and nitro-substituted o-methyl benzoic acids failed to react with imines.

Beyond Kolbe and Hofer-Moest: Electrochemical Synthesis of Carboxylic Anhydrides from Carboxylic Acids.

Project description:Herein we report a conceptually new non-decarboxylative electrolysis of carboxylic acids to obtain their corresponding anhydrides as highly valuable reagents in organic synthesis. All carbon atoms of the starting material are preserved in the product in an overall redox-neutral reaction. In a broad substrate scope of carboxylic acids the anhydrides are generated with high selectivity, which demonstrates the versatility of the developed method. Beneficially, no dehydrating reagents are required in comparison to conventional methods and the synthesis is based on uncritical starting materials using graphite and stainless steel as very inexpensive and eco-friendly electrode materials.

Catalytic Enantio- and Diastereoselective Cyclopropanation of 2-Azadienes for the Synthesis of Aminocyclopropanes Bearing Quaternary Carbon Stereogenic Centers.

Project description:We report the catalytic enantio- and diastereoselective preparation of aminocyclopropanes by the cyclopropanation of terminal and (Z)-internal 2-azadienes with donor/acceptor carbenes derived from α-diazoesters. The resulting cyclopropanes bear quaternary carbon stereogenic centers vicinal to the amino-substituted carbon and are formed as a single diastereomer in up to 99:1 er and 97% yield with 0.5 mol % of Rh2(DOSP)4 and only 1.5 equiv of the diazo reagent. Transformations with internal azadienes afford cyclopropanes with three contiguous stereogenic centers.
