- Iron(II) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes in catalytic one-pot Wittig reactions: Mechanistic insights
-
An iron(II) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex is applied as catalyst for aldehyde olefination with ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) in the presence of triphenylphosphine. The reaction leads to high olefin yields with very good E-selectivities. The key step of the reaction is the catalytic in situ generation of a phosphorus ylide. Mechanistic studies reveal two possible pathways for the formation of the Wittig reagent with respect to the carbene source being the metal carbene (NHC)FeIV[dbnd]CH(CO2Et), and phosphazine, Ph3P[dbnd]N[sbnd]N[dbnd]CH(CO2Et). Based on the experimental observations a new mechanism for the transformation of phosphazine is proposed.

- Organocatalyzed [2+2] Cycloaddition Reactions between Quinone Imine Ketals and Allenoates
-
A new cycloaddition reaction of quinone imine ketals (QIKs), which could be utilized to the construction of functionalized azaspirocyclics under mild conditions, is described. This transformation involved a [2+2] cycloaddition reaction between QIKs and allenoates catalyzed by DABCO, and then treatment with 1 N HCl in one-pot. The strategy could provide a practical route to access azetidine-fused spirohexadienones in good to excellent yields and with high E -selectivity.

- Enantioselective Rauhut–Currier Reaction with β-Substituted Acrylamides Catalyzed by N-Heterocyclic Carbenes
-
β-Substituted acrylamides have low electrophilicity and are yet to be exploited in the enantioselective Rauhut–Currier reaction. By exploiting electron-withdrawing protection of the amide and moderate nucleophilicity N-heterocyclic carbenes, such substrates have been converted to enantioenriched quinolones. The reaction proceeds with complete diastereoselectivity, good yield, and modest enantioselectivity. Derivatizations are reported, as are computational studies, supporting decreased amide bond character with electron-withdrawing protection of the nitrogen.

- Substituted dienes prepared from betulinic acid – Synthesis, cytotoxicity, mechanism of action, and pharmacological parameters
-
A set of new substituted dienes were synthesized from betulinic acid by its oxidation to 30-oxobetulinic acid followed by the Wittig reaction. Cytotoxicity of all compounds was tested in vitro in eight cancer cell lines and two noncancer fibroblasts. Almost all dienes were more cytotoxic than betulinic acid. Compounds 4.22, 4.30, 4.33, 4.39 had IC50 below 5 μmol/L; 4.22 and 4.39 were selected for studies of the mechanism of action. Cell cycle analysis revealed an increase in the number of apoptotic cells at 5 × IC50 concentration, where activation of irreversible changes leading to cell death can be expected. Both 4.22 and 4.39 led to the accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase with partial inhibition of DNA/RNA synthesis at 1 × IC50 and almost complete inhibition at 5 × IC50. Interestingly, compound 4.39 at 5 × IC50 caused the accumulation of cells in the S phase. Higher concentrations of tested drugs probably inhibit more off-targets than lower concentrations. Mechanisms disrupting cellular metabolism can induce the accumulation of cells in the S phase. Both compounds 4.22 and 4.39 trigger selective apoptosis in cancer cells via intrinsic pathway, which we have demonstrated by changes in the expression of the crucial apoptosis-related protein. Pharmacological parameters of derivative 4.22 were superior to 4.39, therefore 4.22 was the finally selected candidate for the development of anticancer drug.

- Catalytic Synthesis of 1 H-2-Benzoxocins: Cobalt(III)-Carbene Radical Approach to 8-Membered Heterocyclic Enol Ethers
-
The metallo-radical activation of ortho-allylcarbonyl-aryl N-arylsulfonylhydrazones with the paramagnetic cobalt(II) porphyrin catalyst [CoII(TPP)] (TPP = tetraphenylporphyrin) provides an efficient and powerful method for the synthesis of novel 8-membered heterocyclic enol ethers. The synthetic protocol is versatile and practical and enables the synthesis of a wide range of unique 1H-2-benzoxocins in high yields. The catalytic cyclization reactions proceed with excellent chemoselectivities, have a high functional group tolerance, and provide several opportunities for the synthesis of new bioactive compounds. The reactions are shown to proceed via cobalt(III)-carbene radical intermediates, which are involved in intramolecular hydrogen transfer (HAT) from the allylic position to the carbene radical, followed by a near-barrierless radical rebound step in the coordination sphere of cobalt. The proposed mechanism is supported by experimental observations, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and spin trapping experiments.

- Enantioselective Allenoate-Claisen Rearrangement Using Chiral Phosphate Catalysts
-
Herein we report the first highly enantioselective allenoate-Claisen rearrangement using doubly axially chiral phosphate sodium salts as catalysts. This synthetic method provides access to β-amino acid derivatives with vicinal stereocenters in up to 95percent ee. We also investigated the mechanism of enantioinduction by transition state (TS) computations with DFT as well as statistical modeling of the relationship between selectivity and the molecular features of both the catalyst and substrate. The mutual interactions of charge-separated regions in both the zwitterionic intermediate generated by reaction of an amine to the allenoate and the Na+-salt of the chiral phosphate leads to an orientation of the TS in the catalytic pocket that maximizes favorable noncovalent interactions. Crucial arene-arene interactions at the periphery of the catalyst lead to a differentiation of the TS diastereomers. These interactions were interrogated using DFT calculations and validated through statistical modeling of parameters describing noncovalent interactions.

- Heavier Carbonyl Olefination: The Sila-Wittig Reaction
-
The Wittig reaction is one of the most versatile tools in the repertoire of organic chemists. Thus, a broad variety of carbonyl compounds can be converted to tailor-made alkenes with phosphorus ylides under mild conditions. However, no comparable reaction has been reported for silanones, the silicon congeners of ketones. Here, we demonstrate for the first time the successful application of the Wittig olefination to iminosilylsilanone 1. The selective formation of a series of silenes (R2Sia? CR2) via the sila-Wittig reaction revealed an unprecedented approach to otherwise elusive compounds. In addition, the highly reactive and zwitterionic nature of 1 was also susceptible to nucleophilic attacks and cycloaddition reactions by and with the phosphorus ylides. Our results therefore make another important contribution to discovering the differences and similarities between carbon and silicon.

- Intermolecular Dehydrative Coupling and Intramolecular Cyclization of Ruthenium Vinylidene Complexes Formed from Aromatic Propynes Containing Carbonyl Functionalities
-
A remarkable intermolecular dehydrative coupling reaction with the formation of a C?C bond was found for the vinylidene complex 2 a, yielding the dinuclear bisvinylidene complex 4 a. Complex 2 a containing 1-hydroxyindan moiety was first formed from the reaction of o-propynyl benzaldehyde 1 a with [Ru]–Cl ([Ru]=Cp(PPh3)2Ru) by a cyclization process. For analogous aldehyde 1 b containing an additional 1,3-dioxolane group on the aryl ring, similar intermolecular coupling yields the dinuclear bisvinylidene complex 4 b. However, the fluoro group on the aryl ring in aldehyde 1 c inhibits the coupling reaction, giving only the vinylidene complex 2 c. For the reactions of [Ru]–Cl in MeOH with compounds 1 f, 1 g and 1 h, each with a ketone functionality, cyclization gives vinylidene complexes 2 f, 2 g and 2 h, respectively. However, no similar intermolecular coupling was observed, instead, the intramolecular dehydration yields 8 f, 8 g and 8 h, respectively. In CDCl3, catalytic cyclization is observed for the o-propynylphenyl ketone 1 h with [Ru]–Cl at 50 °C giving the isochromene products 14 h. Furthermore, treatment of the o-propynylaryl α,β-unsaturated ketones 1 k–m and 1 n with [Ru]–Cl in MeOH affords the corresponding vinylidene complexes 10 k–m and 11 n each with 1-benzosuberone moiety in the presence of NH4PF6. These intramolecular cyclization products were formed by the addition of Cβ onto the terminal carbon of the alkene moiety. All these reaction products were characterized by spectroscopic methods. In addition, structures of complexes 4 a, and 10 l were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

- Electrochemical Dimerization of Phenylpropenoids and the Surprising Antioxidant Activity of the Resultant Quinone Methide Dimers
-
A simple method for the dimerization of phenylpropenoid derivatives is reported. It leverages electrochemical oxidation of p-unsaturated phenols to access the dimeric materials in a biomimetic fashion. The mild nature of the transformation provides excellent functional group tolerance, resulting in a unified approach for the synthesis of a range of natural products and related analogues with excellent regiocontrol. The operational simplicity of the method allows for greater efficiency in the synthesis of complex natural products. Interestingly, the quinone methide dimer intermediates are potent radical-trapping antioxidants; more so than the phenols from which they are derived—or transformed to—despite the fact that they do not possess a labile H-atom for transfer to the peroxyl radicals that propagate autoxidation.

N-Sulfonylhydrazones generate sulfinates selectively when treated with a stabilized Wittig ylide in a polar aprotic solvent at elevated temperature. The transition metal and base free decomposition method is applicable to N-sulfonylhydrazones generated from a number of aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes and ketones. In the case of N-tosylhydrazones derived from O-allyl and O-propargyl salicylaldehydes, selective formation of sulfinate occurs over intramolecular [3 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction.

- Biocatalytic access to nonracemic γ-oxo esters: Via stereoselective reduction using ene-reductases

The asymmetric bioreduction of α,β-unsaturated γ-keto esters using ene-reductases from the Old Yellow Enzyme family proceeds with excellent stereoselectivity and high conversion levels, covering a broad range of acyclic and cyclic derivatives. Various strategies were employed to provide access to both enantiomers, which are versatile precursors of bioactive molecules. The regioselectivity of hydride addition on di-activated alkenes was elucidated by isotopic labeling experiments and showed strong preference for the keto moiety as activating/binding group as opposed to the ester. Finally, chemoenzymatic synthesis of (R)-2-(2-oxocyclohexyl)acetic acid was achieved in high ee on a preparative scale combining enzymatic reduction followed by ester hydrogenolysis.

- Titania-promoted carboxylic acid alkylations of alkenes and cascade addition-cyclizations
-
Photochemical reactions employing TiO2 and carboxylic acids under dry anaerobic conditions led to several types of C-C bond-forming processes with electron-deficient alkenes. The efficiency of alkylation varied appreciably with substituents in the carboxylic acids. The reactions of aryloxyacetic acids with maleimides resulted in a cascade process in which a pyrrolochromene derivative accompanied the alkylated succinimide. The selectivity for one or other of these products could be tuned to some extent by employing the photoredox catalyst under different conditions. Aryloxyacetic acids adapted for intramolecular ring closures by inclusion of 2-alkenyl, 2-aryl, or 2-oximinyl functionality reacted rather poorly. Profiles of reactant consumption and product formation for these systems were obtained by an in situ NMR monitoring technique. An array of different catalyst forms were tested for efficiency and ease of use. The proposed mechanism, involving hole capture at the TiO2 surface by the carboxylates followed by CO2 loss, was supported by EPR spectroscopic evidence of the intermediates. Deuterium labeling indicated that the titania likely donates protons from surface hydroxyl groups as well as supplying electrons and holes, thus acting as both a catalyst and a reaction partner.

- 1,2-Benzothiazine 1,1-dioxide carboxylate derivatives as novel potent inhibitors of aldose reductase
-
Due to the importance of aldose reductase (ALR2) as a potential drug target in the treatment of diabetic complications, there are increasing interests in design and synthesis of ALR2 inhibitors. Here, we prepared 1,2-benzothiazine 1,1-dioxide acetic acid derivatives and investigated their inhibition activity. Most of these derivatives were found to be active with IC50 values ranging from 0.11 μM to 10.42 μM, and compound 8d, 2-[2-(4-bromo-2- fluorobenzyl)-1,1-dioxido-2H-1,2-benzothiazin-4(3H)-ylidene]acetic acid, showed the most potent inhibition activity. Further, SAR and docking studies suggest that in comparison with the α,β-unsaturated derivatives, the saturated carboxylic acid derivatives had a greater binding affinity with the enzyme and thus an enhanced inhibition activity. Therefore, development of more powerful ARIs based on benzothiazine 1,1-dioxide by stereo-controlled synthesis could be expected.

- Stereoselective olefination of N-sulfonyl imines with stabilized phosphonium ylides for the synthesis of electron-deficient alkenes
-
An unprecedented protocol has been developed for thestereoselective synthesis of structurally diverse electron-deficient alkenes in moderate to excellent yields from readily accessible N-sulfonyl imines and stabilized phosphonium ylides. Significantly, the olefination reaction of N-sulfonylimines with nitrile-stabilized phosphonium ylides affords an array of α,β-unsaturated nitriles with high Z selectivity, and the reactions with ester-, amide-, and ketone-stabilized phosphonium ylides afford α,β-unsaturated esters, amides, and ketones with high E selectivity, respectively. Spectroscopic analysis of the reaction mixtures and trapping of the intermediates allow plausible mechanisms to be proposed. Initialimine/ylide addition leads to the formation of betaines that cyclize to form 1,2-azaphosphetanes that subsequently eliminate iminophosphoranes to yield alkenes. For the synthesis of electron-deficient 1,2-disubstituted alkenes, the presence of an electron-withdrawing group in the betaine allows rapid interconversion between its two diastereomers through proton transfer. The Z/E selectivity for alkene synthesis is determined by the different rates at which the two betaine diastereomers form the corresponding 1,2-azaphosphetane diastereomers. In contrast, the Z/E selectivity for the synthesis of electron-deficient trisubstituted alkenes originates from the diastereoselective addition of stabilized phosphonium ylides to N-sulfonyl imines.

- Stepwise mechanisms in the ene reaction of α,β-unsaturated esters with N-phenyl-l,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione and Singlet oxygen. Intermolecular primary and secondary hydrogen isotope effects
-
Intermolecular primary and secondary isotope effects on the ene reaction of N-phenyl-l,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) and singlet oxygen (1O2) with deuterium-substituted (E)-2-methylbuten-2-oic (tiglic) acid methyl esters have been determined. In the case of 1O2, the primary isotope effect is 1.30-1.49 and the α and β secondary isotope effects are near unity, consistent with a stepwise reaction path via a perepoxide intermediate, where the allylic hydrogen-abstraction step is rate determining. On the other hand, the existence of both primary (1.44) and inverse α and β secondary isotope effects (0.91 and 0.77, respectively) in the PTAD reaction is consistent with either a concerted or a stepwise mechanism. Experiments in which both intermolecular primary and secondary isotope effects were measured at the same time suggest that, like singlet oxygen, PTAD reacts in a stepwise manner with the formation of the aziridinium imide interme diate (AI) in the rate-determining-step.
