- Deep eutectic solvent-catalyzed Meyer-Schuster rearrangement of propargylic alcohols under mild and bench reaction conditions
-
The Meyer-Schuster rearrangement of propargylic alcohols into α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds has been revisited by setting up an atom-economic process catalyzed by a deep eutectic solvent FeCl3·6H2O/glycerol. Isomerizations take place smoothly, at room temperature, under air and with short reaction times. The unique solubilizing properties of the eutectic mixture enabled the use of a substrate concentration up to 1.0 M with the medium being recycled up to ten runs without any loss of catalytic activity.

- A novel catalyst iron(II) tetra(1,4-dithin)porphyrazine for oxygenating degradation of organic pollutants in aqueous solutions
-
An efficient catalyst of the title complex (abbreviated as FePz(dtn) 4) is a porphyrin-like complex, which is able to activate molecular oxygen for oxidative degradation of organic compounds in an extensive pH region without light excitation. The experiments indicated that the FePz(dtn) 4/O2 system showed an excellent oxygenation capability, in which the Rhodamine B(RhB) was degraded nearly 52% in alkaline aqueous solution in the seven hours and the p-nitrobenzoic acid(NBA) could be also oxygenated nearly 85% detected by UV-vis, HPLC in the similar conditions. The degradation components of RhB and NBA were analyzed by GC-MS and IR. The mineralization rate of RhB and NBA were 12 and 11.1% after reaction for 24 h respectively.

- BICHROMATES DE PHOSPHONIUM: REACTIFS D'OXYDATION
-
The bisphosphonium bichromate 1, appears as particularly mild and selective for the oxidation of primary or secondary alcohols.It performs the oxidation of primary alcohols into aldehydes without further oxidation in acid and without double-bond isomerisation or migration for such alcohols as geraniol; it allows also the fully selective oxidation of benzylic or allylic alcohols versus aliphatic alcohols.

- Two-carbon homologation of aldehydes and ketones to α,β- unsaturated aldehydes
-
Phosphonate reagents were developed for the two-carbon homologation of aldehydes or ketones to unbranched- or methyl-branched α,β- unsaturated aldehydes. The phosphonate reagents, diethyl methylformyl-2- phosphonate dimethylhydrazone and diethyl ethylformyl-2-phosphonate dimethylhydrazone, contained a protected aldehyde group instead of the usual ester group. A homologation cycle entailed condensation of the reagent with the starting aldehyde, followed by removal of the dimethylhydrazone protective group with a biphasic mixture of 1 M HCl and petroleum ether. This robust two-step process worked with a variety of aldehydes and ketones. Overall isolated yields of unsaturated aldehyde products ranged from 71% to 86% after the condensation and deprotection steps.

- Synthetic approaches to mono- and bicyclic perortho-esters with a central 1,2,4-trioxane ring as the privileged lead structure in antimalarial and antitumor-active peroxides and clarification of the peroxide relevance
-
The synthesis of 4-styryl-substituted 2,3,8-trioxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes, peroxides with the core structure of the bioactive 1,2,4-trioxane ring, was conducted by a multistep route starting from the aryl methyl ketones 1a-1c. Condensation and reduction/oxidation delivered enals 4a-4c that were coupled with ethyl acetate and reduced to the 1,3-diol substrates 6a-6c. Highly diastereoselective photooxygenation delivered the hydroperoxides 7a-7c and subsequent PPTS (pyridinium-p-toluenesulfonic acid)-catalyzed peroxyacetalization with alkyl triorthoacetates gave the cyclic peroxides 8a-8e. These compounds in general show only moderate antimalarial activities. In order to extend the repertoire of cyclic peroxide structure, we aimed for the synthesis of spiro-perorthocarbonates from orthoester condensation of β-hydroxy hydroperoxide 9 but could only realize the monocyclic perorthocarbonate 10. That the central peroxide moiety is the key structural motif in anticancer active GST (glutathione S-transferase)-inhibitors was elucidated by the synthesis of a 1,3-dioxane 15-with a similar substitution pattern as the pharmacologically active peroxide 11-via a singlet oxygen ene route from the homoallylic alcohol 12.

- Saegusa Oxidation of Enol Ethers at Extremely Low Pd-Catalyst Loadings under Ligand-free and Aqueous Conditions: Insight into the Pd(II)/Cu(II)-Catalyst System
-
A highly efficient and practical Pd(II)/Cu(OAc)2-catalyst system of Saegusa oxidation, which converts enol ethers to the corresponding enals with a number of diverse substrates at extremely low catalyst loadings (500 mol ppm) under ligand-free and aqueous conditions, is described. Its synthetic utility was demonstrated by large-scale applications of the catalyst system to important nature molecules. This work allows Saegusa oxidation to become a highly practical approach to preparing enals and also suggests new insight into the Pd(II)/Cu(II)-catalyst system for dehydrogenation of carbonyl compounds and decreasing Pd-catalyst loadings.

- Method for preparing olefine aldehyde through catalytic oxidation of enol ether
-
The invention relates to the technical field of olefine aldehyde preparation, and provides a method for preparing olefine aldehyde through catalytic oxidation of enol ether. According to the invention, a palladium catalyst, a copper salt, a solvent and enol ether are mixed and subjected to a catalytic oxidation reaction to obtain olefine aldehyde. According to the method, the copper salt is used as the oxidizing agent, the mixed solvent of water and acetonitrile is used as the reaction solvent, and the volume ratio of water to acetonitrile in the mixed solvent is controlled to be (3-7): (3-7), so that the catalytic oxidation reaction can be smoothly carried out in the mixed solvent with a specific ratio, and the generation of palladium black precipitate can be avoided. The method provided by the invention has the advantages of simple steps, low reagent cost, no need of dangerous reagents, wide substrate adaptability and small catalyst dosage. Furthermore, octadecane mercaptan is added to promote the catalytic oxidation reaction, and when the dosage of the palladium catalyst is extremely low, the olefine aldehyde yield can be greatly increased by adding octadecane mercaptan.

- Stereodefined rhodium-catalysed 1,4-H/D delivery for modular syntheses and deuterium integration
-
Deuterium-incorporated compounds are of high interest owing to their importance in the pharmaceutical industry, organic synthesis and materials science. So far, the integration of deuterium into the inert, saturated magic methyl or methylene groups of covalent molecules remains challenging. Here, we present a 1,4-H delivery of allylic metallic species to provide a highly stereoselective and straightforward approach to 3-methyl-2(E)-enals or -enones from readily available 2,3-allenols and organoboronic acids. The reaction accommodates many synthetically versatile functional groups as well as multi-pharmacophores, and is not limited to the formation of 3-methyl derivatives. By applying 1,4-H or D delivery, deuterium atom(s) from differently deuterated allenols can be edited into the methyl or methylene groups of versatile organic skeletons, resulting in the efficient formation of 4-monodeuterated, 1,4- and 4,4-doubly deuterated, and 4,4,4-triply deuterated 2(E)-enals or -enones. These powerful platform molecules can provide straightforward paths to other deuterated compounds for different purposes. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Sulfur-controlled and rhodium-catalyzed formal (3 + 3) transannulation of thioacyl carbenes with alk-2-enals and mechanistic insights
-
A rhodium-catalyzed denitrogenative formal (3 + 3) transannulation of 1,2,3-thiadiazoles with alk-2-enals is achieved, producing 2,3-dihydrothiopyran-4-ones in moderate to excellent yields. An inverse KIE of 0.49 is obtained, suggesting the reversibility of the oxidative addition of thioacyl Rh(i) carbenes to alk-2-enals. The late-stage structural modifications of steroid compounds are realized. Moreover, our studies show that thioacyl carbenes have different reactivities to those of α-oxo and α-imino carbenes, and highlight the importance of heteroatoms in deciding the reactivities of heterovinyl carbenes.

- Biocatalytic reduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to allylic alcohols
-
We have developed robust in vivo and in vitro biocatalytic systems that enable reduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to allylic alcohols and their saturated analogues. These compounds are prevalent scaffolds in many industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals. A substrate profiling study of a carboxylic acid reductase (CAR) investigating unexplored substrate space, such as benzo-fused (hetero)aromatic carboxylic acids and α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids, revealed broad substrate tolerance and provided information on the reactivity patterns of these substrates. E. coli cells expressing a heterologous CAR were employed as a multi-step hydrogenation catalyst to convert a variety of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to the corresponding saturated primary alcohols, affording up to >99percent conversion. This was supported by the broad substrate scope of E. coli endogenous alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), as well as the unexpected CC bond reducing activity of E. coli cells. In addition, a broad range of benzofused (hetero)aromatic carboxylic acids were converted to the corresponding primary alcohols by the recombinant E. coli cells. An alternative one-pot in vitro two-enzyme system, consisting of CAR and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH), demonstrates promiscuous carbonyl reductase activity of GDH towards a wide range of unsaturated aldehydes. Hence, coupling CAR with a GDH-driven NADP(H) recycling system provides access to a variety of (hetero)aromatic primary alcohols and allylic alcohols from the parent carboxylates, in up to >99percent conversion. To demonstrate the applicability of these systems in preparative synthesis, we performed 100 mg scale biotransformations for the preparation of indole-3-aldehyde and 3-(naphthalen-1-yl)propan-1-ol using the whole-cell system, and cinnamyl alcohol using the in vitro system, affording up to 85percent isolated yield.

- Highly Selective and Catalytic Generation of Acyclic Quaternary Carbon Stereocenters via Functionalization of 1,3-Dienes with CO2
-
The catalytic asymmetric functionalization of readily available 1,3-dienes is highly important, but current examples are mostly limited to the construction of tertiary chiral centers. The asymmetric generation of acyclic products containing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters from substituted 1,3-dienes represents a more challenging, but highly desirable, synthetic process for which there are very few examples. Herein, we report the highly selective copper-catalyzed generation of chiral all-carbon acyclic quaternary stereocenters via functionalization of 1,3-dienes with CO2. A variety of readily available 1,1-disubstituted 1,3-dienes, as well as a 1,3,5-triene, undergo reductive hydroxymethylation with high chemo-, regio-, E/Z-, and enantioselectivities. The reported method features good functional group tolerance, is readily scaled up to at least 5 mmol of starting diene, and generates chiral products that are useful building blocks for further derivatization. Systemic mechanistic investigations using density functional theory calculations were performed and provided the first theoretical investigation for an asymmetric transformation involving CO2. These computational results indicate that the 1,2-hydrocupration of 1,3-diene proceeds with high π-facial selectivity to generate an (S)-allylcopper intermediate, which further induces the chirality of the quaternary carbon center in the final product. The 1,4-addition of an internal allylcopper complex, which differs from previous reports involving terminal allylmetallic intermediates, to CO2 kinetically determines the E/Z- and regioselectivity. The rapid reduction of a copper carboxylate intermediate to the corresponding silyl-ether in the presence of Me(MeO)2SiH provides the exergonic impetus and leads to chemoselective hydroxymethylation rather than carboxylation. These results provide new insights for guiding further development of asymmetric C-C bond formations with CO2

- Heterogeneous Acid-Catalyzed Racemization of Tertiary Alcohols
-
Tertiary alcohols are important structural motifs in natural products and building blocks in organic synthesis but only few methods are known for their enantioselective preparation. Chiral resolution is one of these approaches that leaves one enantiomer (50 % of the material) unaffected. An attractive method to increase the efficiency of those resolutions is to racemize the unaffected enantiomer. In the present work, we have developed a practical racemization protocol for tertiary alcohols. Five different acidic resin materials were tested. The Dowex 50WX8 was the resin of choice since it was capable of racemizing tertiary alcohols without any byproduct formation. Suitable solvents and a biphasic system were investigated, and the optimized system was capable of racemizing differently substituted tertiary alcohols.

The traceless Petasis borono-Mannich reaction of enals, sulfonylhydrazines, and allylboronates, catalyzed by chiral biphenols, results in an asymmetric reductive transposition of the in situ generated allylic diazene. Acyclic 1,4-diene products bearing either alkyl- or aryl-substituted benzylic stereocenters are afforded in excellent yields and enantiomeric ratios of up to 99:1. The use of crotylboronates in the reaction results in concomitant formation of two stereocenters in either a 1,4-syn or anti relationship from the corresponding E- or Z-crotylboronate used in the reaction. The use of β-monosubstituted enals in the asymmetric traceless Petasis borono-Mannich reaction of crotylboronates installs tertiary methyl-bearing stereocenters in good yields and high enantioselectivities.

- Iminium Catalysis inside a Self-Assembled Supramolecular Capsule: Scope and Mechanistic Studies
-
Although iminium catalysis has become an important tool in organic chemistry, its combination with supramolecular host systems has remained largely unexplored. We report the detailed investigations into the first example of iminium catalysis inside a supramolecular host. In the case of 1,4-reductions of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, catalytic amounts of host are able to increase the enantiomeric excess of the products formed. Several control experiments were performed and provided strong evidence that the modulation of enantiomeric excess of the reaction product indeed stems from a reaction on the inside of the capsule. The origin of the increased enantioselectivity in the capsule was investigated. Furthermore, the substrate and nucleophile scope were studied. Kinetic investigations as well as the kinetic isotope effect measured confirmed that the hydride delivery to the substrate is the rate-determining step inside the capsule. The exploration of benzothiazolidines as alternative hydride sources revealed an unexpected substitution effect of the hydride source itself. The results presented confirm that the noncovalent combination of supramolecular hosts with iminium catalysis is opening up new exciting possibilities to increase enantioselectivity in challenging reactions.

- Green and Rapid Access to Benzocoumarins via Direct Benzene Construction through Base-Mediated Formal [4+2] Reaction and Air Oxidation
-
Benzocoumarin is an important structural motif widely found in natural products and synthetic molecules. Traditional methods for the synthesis of benzocoumarins and their derivatives require multiple steps, typically with an intramolecular ester forming reaction to make the lactone ring as the last step. Another major method involves transition metal-catalyzed coupling or carbon-hydrogen bond activation reactions starting with pre-existing aryl frameworks in the substrates. Here we report a new strategy for the green and rapid access to benzocoumarins and their derivatives. Our method uses readily available unsaturated aldehydes and coumarins as the substrates and air as the green oxidant. The overall reaction proceeds through a formal [4+2] process to construct a new benzene ring and thus to afford benzocoumarins in essentially a single step. No metal catalysts were used; no toxic or expensive reagents were involved. The power of our new approach is further demonstrated in a concise formal total synthesis of cannabinol, a bioactive natural product.

Chemoselective oxa-Diels-Alder reactions between electrically neutral 1,3-dienes and various aldehydes were achieved using the commercially available silver tetrafluoroborate (AgBF4) as catalyst. This catalytic process has high functional group tolerance. Heteroatoms at the β-position of the aryl aldehydes can greatly promote the reactivity of the substrates even with heterocyclic aldehydes that were previously believed to be unreactive for the oxa-Diels-Alder reaction. In addition, acroleins with β-heteroatom substitution are also good substrates. High chemoselectivity and regioselectivity were achieved at room temperature for the oxa-Diels-Alder reaction between acroleins and stoichiometric simple 1,3-dienes.

- Scope and mechanism in palladium-catalyzed isomerizations of highly substituted allylic, homoallylic, and alkenyl alcohols
-
Herein we report the palladium-catalyzed isomerization of highly substituted allylic alcohols and alkenyl alcohols by means of a single catalytic system. The operationally simple reaction protocol is applicable to a broad range of substrates and displays a wide functional group tolerance, and the products are usually isolated in high chemical yield. Experimental and computational mechanistic investigations provide complementary and converging evidence for a chain-walking process consisting of repeated migratory insertion/β-H elimination sequences. Interestingly, the catalyst does not dissociate from the substrate in the isomerization of allylic alcohols, whereas it disengages during the isomerization of alkenyl alcohols when additional substituents are present on the alkyl chain.

- Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohols with intermolecular hydrogen transfer: Synthesis of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds
-
Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of multisubstituted allyl alcohols in the presence of benzaldehyde gives enals or enones in good yields. Unlike the commonly reported ruthenium-catalyzed isomerization reaction of allyl alcohols to give saturated ketones, an intermolecular rather than intramolecular hydrogen transfer is involved in this transformation. This reaction offers an efficient, mild, and high-yielding method for the preparation of substituted α,β-unsaturated compounds.

- [PF6]2 As catalyst for the meyer-schuster rearrangement of arylpropargylic alcohols under mild conditions
-
The novel iridium complex [IrCpNCMe2PPh2Me][PF6]2 I efficiently catalyzed the Meyer-Schuster rearrangement of selected arylpropargylic alcohols into α,β-unsaturated aldehydes under mild conditions and without the need of a co-catalyst. A mechanism involving a hydroxy alkenylcarbene intermediate is proposed. [IrCpNCMe2PPh2Me][PF6]2 efficiently catalyzes the rearrangement of propargylic alcohols into α,β-unsaturated aldehydes under mild conditions and without the need of a co-catalyst.

A catalyst consisting of 1 mol % of the 1:2 complex of Pd(OAc)2 with N-(4-carbethoxyphenyl)urea promotes the Heck arylation of 2- or 3-substituted, conjugated esters, nitriles, aldehydes, and ketones (an uncharacteristically broad range of substrates), but only with electron-rich aryl iodides (an uncharacteristically narrow range of halides).

- New Ag(I)-iminophosphorane coordination polymers as efficient catalysts precursors for the MW-assisted meyer-schuster rearrangement of propargylic alcohols in water

Treatment of the N-thiophosphorylated iminophosphorane ligands (PTA)=NP(=S)(OR)2 [PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane, 3a and 3b] and (DAPTA)=NP(=S)(OR)2 [DAPTA = 3,7-diacetyl-1,3,7-triaza-5- bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane, 4a and 4b] with an equimolecular amount of AgSbF 6 leads to high-yield formation of the new one-dimensional coordination polymers [Ag{μ2-N,S-(PTA)=NP(=S)(OR) 2}]x[SbF6]x (5a and 5b) and [Ag{μ2-O,S-(DAPTA)=NP(=S)(OR)2}]x[SbF 6]x (6a and 6b), respectively. These new (iminophosphorane)silver(I) coordination polymers are efficient catalyst precursors for the Meyer-Schuster isomerization of both terminal and internal alkynols. Reactions proceeded in water, under aerobic conditions and using microwave irradiation as heating source, to afford the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in excellent yields, without the addition of any cocatalyst. Remarkably, it should be noted that this catalytic system can be recycled up to 10 consecutive runs (1st cycle 45 min, 99%; 10th cycle 6 h, 97%). ESI-MS analysis of 5a in water has been carried out providing valuable insight into the monomeric active species responsible for catalytic activity in water.

- Electrocyclization of oxatrienes in the construction of structurally complex pyranopyridones
-
Application of a tandem Knoevenagel/6π-electrocyclization sequence is able to produce highly substituted pyranopyridones from moderate to high yields in a one-step reaction. High diasteroselectivity is observed in some cases and was rationalized on the basis of the thermodynamic control of the evidenced reversibility of a 6π-electrocyclization reaction. Numerous examples are provided establishing a novel entry in natural product-like structures of pyranopyridone alkaloids.

- Synthesis, modeling and functional activity of substituted styrene-amides as small-molecule CXCR7 agonists
-
The chemokine receptor CXCR7 is an atypical G protein-coupled receptor as it preferentially signals through the β-arrestin pathway rather than through G proteins. CXCR7 is thought to be of importance in cancer and the development of CXCR7-targeting ligands is of huge importance to further elucidate the pharmacology and the therapeutic potential of CXCR7. In the present study, we synthesized 24 derivatives based on a compound scaffold patented by Chemocentryx and obtained CXCR7 ligands with pKi values ranging from 5.3 to 8.1. SAR studies were supported by computational 3D Fingerprint studies, revealing several important affinity descriptors. Two key compounds (29 and 30, VUF11207 and VUF11403) were found to be high-potency ligands that induce recruitment of β-arrestin2 and subsequent internalization of CXCR7, making them important tool compounds in future CXCR7 research.

An efficient one-to-one coupling reaction of atmospheric pressure carbon dioxide with 1,3-dienes is realized for the first time through PSiP-pincer type palladium-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation. The reaction is applicable to various 1,3-dienes including easily available chemical feedstock such as 1,3-butadiene and isoprene. This protocol affords a highly useful method for the synthesis of β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives from CO2.

- Stereochemical course of baker's yeast mediated reduction of the tri- and tetrasubstituted double bonds of substituted cinnamaldehydes
-
A comprehensive study of the stereochemical course of baker's yeast mediated reduction of substituted cinnamaldehydes is reported. Hydride addition to the β position of β-methylcinnamaldehydes preferentially afforded isomers of (3S)-3-phenylbutan-1-ol. The reduction of (E)-2,3-dimethyl- cinnamaldehyde (15) produced a mixture of (2S,3S)- and (2R,3S)-2-methyl-3- phenylbutan-1-ol (13 and 14), respectively, with 93 % ee. Conversely (Z)-2,3-dimethylcinnamal-dehyde (16) afforded, a mixture of 13 and 14 with 33 % ee. Accordingly, the reduction of trisubstituted β-methylcinnam-aldehydes 34 and 35 proceeded with the same stereochemical preference and with higher enantioselectivity to give (S) 3-phenylbutan-1-ol (37). In addition, deuterium, incorporation and 2H NMR studies demonstrated that the addition of the second hydrogen atom to the a position proceeded with very low stereochemical control and the overall process is formally a mixture of cis/trans hydrogen addition to the double bond. Alternatively, α-methylcinnamaldehyde is reduced to (S)-2-methyl-3-phenylpropan-1-ol (24) with preferential addition of the hydride to the opposite β face with good stereochemical control of the irons addition of hydrogen to the double bond.

- A simple and versatile re-catalyzed meyer-schuster rearrangement of propargylic alcohols to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds
-
The development of a general catalytic procedure for the rapid and efficient 1,3-rearrangement of free secondary and tertiary propargylic alcohols to the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds using available [ReOCl3(OPPh3)-(SMe2)] complex, was reported. The reaction was carried out under neutral environmental conditions with no racemization of potentially enolizable stereocenters with virtually complete E stereoselectivity. The reaction under dimethoxyethane, proceeded at the lower rate than in THF, but with reduced by-products and the yield obtained were highly significant. The reaction was reported to increase constantly at the expense of the (Z)-isomer 2b, where the double bong isomerization was attributed to a catalytic effect of the rhenium complex. The resulted new version of Meyer-Schuster rearrangement will find enormous application in organic synthesis to develop one-pot multistep reaction sequences.
