- Next-Generation Total Synthesis of Vancomycin
-
A next-generation total synthesis of vancomycin aglycon is detailed that was achieved in 17 steps (longest linear sequence, LLS) from the constituent amino acid subunits with kinetically controlled diastereoselective introduction of all three elements of atropisomerism. In addition to new syntheses of three of the seven amino acid subunits, highlights of the approach include a ligand-controlled atroposelective one-pot Miyaura borylation-Suzuki coupling sequence for introduction of the AB biaryl axis of chirality (>20:1 dr), an essentially instantaneous and scalable macrolactamization of the AB ring system nearly free of competitive epimerization (>30:1 dr), and two room-temperature atroposelective intramolecular SNAr cyclizations for sequential CD (8:1 dr) and DE ring closures (14:1 dr) that benefit from both preorganization by the preformed AB ring system and subtle substituent effects. Combined with a protecting group free two-step enzymatic glycosylation of vancomycin aglycon, this provides a 19-step total synthesis of vancomycin. The approach paves the way for large-scale synthetic preparation of pocket-modified vancomycin analogues that directly address the underlying mechanism of resistance to vancomycin.

- Synthesis of new C3 symmetric amino acid- and aminoalcohol-containing chiral stationary phases and application to HPLC enantioseparations
-
We recently reported a new C3-symmetric (R)-phenylglycinol N-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid-derived chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) stationary phase (CSP 1) that demonstrated better results as compared to a previously described N-3,5-dintrobenzoyl (DNB) (R)-phenylglycinol-derived CSP. Over a decade ago, (S)-leucinol, (R)-phenylglycine, and (S)-leucine derivatives were used as the starting materials of 3,5-DNB-based Pirkle-type CSPs for chiral separation. In this study, three new C3-symmetric CSPs (CSP 2, 3, and 4) were prepared by combining the ideas and results mentioned above. Here we describe the synthetic procedures and applications of the new C3-symmetric CSPs (CSP 2–CSP 4).

- Thiocarbonyl Surrogate via Combination of Sulfur and Chloroform for Thiocarbamide and Oxazolidinethione Construction
-
An efficient and practical thiocarbonyl surrogate via combination of sulfur and chloroform has been developed. A variety of thiocarbamides and oxazolidinethiones have been established, including chiral thiourea catalysts and chiral oxazolidinethione auxiliaries with high selectivity. Meanwhile, pesticides Diafenthiuron (an acaricide), ANTU (a rodenticide), and Chloromethiuron (an insecticide) were practically synthesized through this method in gram scale. Dicholorocarbene, as the key intermediate, was further confirmed via a carbene-trapping control experiment.

- Potent and Selective Inhibitors of Histone Deacetylase-3 Containing Chiral Oxazoline Capping Groups and a N-(2-Aminophenyl)-benzamide Binding Unit
-
A novel series of potent chiral inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HDAC) is described that contains an oxazoline capping group and a N-(2-aminophenyl)-benzamide unit. Among several new inhibitors of this type exhibiting Class I selectivity and potent inhibition of HDAC3-NCoR2, in vitro assays for the inhibition of HDAC1, HDAC2, and HDAC3-NCoR2 by N-(2-aminophenyl)-benzamide 15k gave respective IC50 values of 80, 110, and 6 nM. Weak inhibition of all other HDAC isoforms (HDAC4, 5, 6, 7, and 9: IC50 > 100000 nM; HDAC8: IC50 = 25000 nM; HDAC10: IC50 > 4000 nM; HDAC11: IC50 > 2000 nM) confirmed the Class I selectivity of 15k. 2-Aminoimidazolinyl, 2-thioimidazolinyl, and 2-aminooxazolinyl units were shown to be effective replacements for the pyrimidine ring present in many other 2-(aminophenyl)-benzamides previously reported, but the 2-aminooxazolinyl unit was the most potent in inhibiting HDAC3-NCoR2. Many of the new HDAC inhibitors showed higher solubilities and lower binding to human serum albumin than that of Mocetinostat. Increases in histone H3K9 acetylation in the human cell lines U937 and PC-3 was observed for all three oxazolinyl inhibitors evaluated; those HDAC inhibitors also lowered cyclin E expression in U937 cells but not in PC-3 cells, indicating underlying differences in the mechanisms of action of the inhibitors on those two cell lines.

- N-(diazoacetyl)oxazolidin-2-thiones as sulfur-donor reagents: Asymmetric synthesis of thiiranes from aldehydes
-
Sulfur tyranny: Thiiranes, instead of oxiranes, can be obtained in a highly stereoselective manner through the cycloaddition reaction of N-acyl oxazolidine tethered diazo thione compounds with aldehydes catalyzed by RhII. Thus, this reaction provides versatile adducts S functionalized at both the α and β position, with concomitant generation of two contiguous stereocenters. Copyright

- Catalytic, enantioselective N-acylation of lactams and thiolactams using amidine-based catalysts
-
In contrast to alcohols and amines, racemic lactams and thiolactams cannot be resolved directly via enzymatic acylation or classical resolution. Asymmetric N-acylation promoted by amidine-based catalysts, particularly Cl-PIQ 2 and BTM 3, provides a convenient method for the kinetic resolution of these valuable compounds and often achieves excellent levels of enantioselectivity in this process. Density functional theory calculations indicate that the reaction occurs via N-acylation of the lactim tautomer and that cation-π interactions play a key role in the chiral recognition of lactam substrates.

- Intramolecular sulfur transfer in N-enoyl oxazolidine-2-thiones promoted by Bronsted acids. Practical asymmetric synthesis of β-mercapto carboxylic acids and mechanistic insights
-
The ability of Bronsted acids alone to efficiently promote the sulfur transfer process in N-enoyl oxazolidine-2-thiones to give β-mercapto carbonyl derivatives is demonstrated. The reactions proceed with essentially perfect diastereocontrol for a range of alkyl-substituted N-enoyl oxazolidine-2-thiones (d.r. regularly above 98:2) and high selectivity for most aryl-substituted counterparts (d.r. typically above 92:8). Importantly, the reaction works remarkably well in β,β-disubstituted N-enoyl oxazolidine-2-thiones as well, giving rise to quaternary C-S stereocenters in selectivities usually above 95:5. The relative efficiency of a range of acids (trifluoroacetic, difluoroacetic, acetic, triflic) is assessed showing TFA and TfOH as the most efficient and acetic acid as a totally inefficient reaction promoter. The new procedure complements the Lewis acid promoted reaction previously described by our group in two aspects: First, stereodivergent results are obtained for the Lewis acid or Bronsted acid promoted reactions of β,β-disubstituted enoyl compounds. Second, while the Bronsted acid promoted reactions are stereospecific, providing a good correlation between the substrate E/Z configuration and products stereochemistry, the reactions mediated by Lewis acids (BF3/OEt2) provide invariant d.r. values regardless of the E/Z composition of the starting olefin. The synthetic value of the method is illustrated by (a) removal of the oxazolidinone moiety from the rearranged products under reducing conditions (NaBH4, H 2O-THF) which yields β-mercapto alcohols and (b) treatment with Sm(OTf)3 in MeOH which affords the corresponding β-mercapto carboxylic esters, both categories of compounds being isolated in up to 97% ee. Remarkably, the method constitutes the first general approach to highly enantioenriched building blocks bearing a quaternary C-S stereocenter. On the other hand, spectroscopic and inhibition experiments are carried out that demonstrate the participation of protons also in the Lewis acid promoted reactions. Finally, the computational studies carried out at the B3LYP/6-31G* level give support for an activation of the substrate enoyl by complexation with two molecules of either the Bronsted or Lewis acid and serve to explain the stereochemical outcome of the reactions.
