- Photorelease of Pyridines Using a Metal-Free Photoremovable Protecting Group
-
The photorelease of bioactive molecules has emerged as a valuable tool in biochemistry. Nevertheless, many important bioactive molecules, such as pyridine derivatives, cannot benefit from currently available organic photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs). We found that the inefficient photorelease of pyridines is attributed to intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from PPGs to pyridinium ions. To alleviate PET, we rationally designed a strategy to drive the excited state of PPG from S1 to T1 with a heavy atom, and synthesized a new PPG by substitution of the H atom at the 3-position of 7-dietheylamino-coumarin-4-methyl (DEACM) with Br or I. This resulted in an improved photolytic efficiency of the pyridinium ion by hundreds-fold in aqueous solution. The PPG can be applied to various pyridine derivatives. The successful photorelease of a microtubule inhibitor, indibulin, in living cells was demonstrated for the potential application of this strategy in biochemical research.

- Evaluation of the Edman degradation product of vancomycin bonded to core-shell particles as a new HPLC chiral stationary phase
-
A modified macrocyclic glycopeptide-based chiral stationary phase (CSP), prepared via Edman degradation of vancomycin, was evaluated as a chiral selector for the first time. Its applicability was compared with other macrocyclic glycopeptide-based CSPs: TeicoShell and VancoShell. In addition, another modified macrocyclic glycopeptide-based CSP, NicoShell, was further examined. Initial evaluation was focused on the complementary behavior with these glycopeptides. A screening procedure was used based on previous work for the enantiomeric separation of 50 chiral compounds including amino acids, pesticides, stimulants, and a variety of pharmaceuticals. Fast and efficient chiral separations resulted by using superficially porous (core-shell) particle supports. Overall, the vancomycin Edman degradation product (EDP) resembled TeicoShell with high enantioselectivity for acidic compounds in the polar ionic mode. The simultaneous enantiomeric separation of 5 racemic profens using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry with EDP was performed in approximately 3?minutes. Other highlights include simultaneous liquid chromatography separations of rac-amphetamine and rac-methamphetamine with VancoShell, rac-pseudoephedrine and rac-ephedrine with NicoShell, and rac-dichlorprop and rac-haloxyfop with TeicoShell.

- Nicotine and pesticide poisonous chenopodium album method for the asymmetric synthesis of alkali
-
The invention relates to an asymmetric synthesis method for botanical pesticide nicotine and anabasine. The low-cost and easily acquired 2,5-dibromopyridine is taken as an initial raw material and is processed in two steps, so that the hydrogenation precursor annular imine is acquired; under the induction of the chiral catalyst, iridium-phosphine oxazoline, an important hydrogenated product intermediate is acquired through high enantioselectivity; the intermediate is processed in two steps, so that L-nicotine is acquired; the intermediate is converted into L-anabasine in one step. The asymmetric hydrogenation of the annular imine containing pyridine gene is taken as the key step of the method. According to the invention, the chiral catalyst, iridium-phosphine oxazoline, is used for catalyzing the asymmetric hydrogenation and the key intermediate with ultrahigh ee value is acquired, and then the methylation and reduction bromine-removing two-step reaction is performed for converting, so that the target products, natural nicotine and anabasine, are acquired. According to the invention, the operation is stable, the purity is high and the cost is low.

- Iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of 2-pyridyl cyclic imines: A highly enantioselective approach to nicotine derivatives
-
A highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of cyclic imines containing a pyridyl moiety was established by using iridium catalysts with chiral spiro phosphine-oxazoline ligands. This process will facilitate the development of new nicotine-related pharmaceuticals. The introduction of a substituent at the ortho position of the pyridyl ring to reduce its coordinating ability ensures the success of the hydrogenation and excellent enantioselectivity.

- Ring Opening of Donor-Acceptor Cyclopropanes with the Azide Ion: A Tool for Construction of N-Heterocycles
-
A general method for ring opening of various donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with the azide ion through an SN2-like reaction has been developed. This highly regioselective and stereospecific process proceeds through nucleophilic attack on the more-substituted C2 atom of a cyclopropane with complete inversion of configuration at this center. Results of DFT calculations support the SN2 mechanism and demonstrate good qualitative correlation between the relative experimental reactivity of cyclopropanes and the calculated energy barriers. The reaction provides a straightforward approach to a variety of polyfunctional azides in up to 91% yield. The high synthetic utility of these azides and the possibilities of their involvement in diversity-oriented synthesis were demonstrated by the developed multipath strategy of their transformations into five-, six-, and seven-membered N-heterocycles, as well as complex annulated compounds, including natural products and medicines such as (-)-nicotine and atorvastatin. A new world of opportunities: Stereospecific ring opening of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with the azide ion gives rise to densely functionalized building blocks that are valuable for the assembly of a diverse range of N-heterocycles (see scheme; EDG=electron donating group; EWG=electron withdrawing group). These synthetic opportunities are provided by the simultaneous presence of the N3 group, which reacts as a latent amine or 1,3-dipole, easily modifiable donor and acceptor substituents, as well as the activated CH fragment.

- Development of an R-selective amine oxidase with broad substrate specificity and high enantioselectivity
-
Amine oxidases are useful bio-catalysts for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure 1°, 2° and 3° chiral amines. Enzymes in this class (e.g., MAO-N from Aspergillus niger) reported previously have been shown to be highly S selective. Herein we report the development of an enantiocomplementary R-selective amine oxidase based on 6-hydroxy-D-nicotine oxidase (6-HDNO) with broadened substrate scope and high enantioselectivity. The engineered 6-HDNO enzyme has been applied to the preparative deracemisation of a range of racemic amines to yield S-configured products, for example, (S)-nicotine, in high ee. Nicotine rush: An R-selective amine oxidase based on 6-hydroxy-D-nicotine oxidase (6-HDNO) with broadened substrate scope and high enantioselectivity has been developed.

- Synthetic cascades are enabled by combining biocatalysts with artificial metalloenzymes
-
Enzymatic catalysis and homogeneous catalysis offer complementary means to address synthetic challenges, both in chemistry and in biology. Despite its attractiveness, the implementation of concurrent cascade reactions that combine an organometallic catalyst with an enzyme has proven challenging because of the mutual inactivation of both catalysts. To address this, we show that incorporation of a d 6 -piano stool complex within a host protein affords an artificial transfer hydrogenase (ATHase) that is fully compatible with and complementary to natural enzymes, thus enabling efficient concurrent tandem catalysis. To illustrate the generality of the approach, the ATHase was combined with various NADH-, FAD- and haem-dependent enzymes, resulting in orthogonal redox cascades. Up to three enzymes were integrated in the cascade and combined with the ATHase with a view to achieving (i) a double stereoselective amine deracemization, (ii) a horseradish peroxidase-coupled readout of the transfer hydrogenase activity towards its genetic optimization, (iii) the formation of L-pipecolic acid from L-lysine and (iv) regeneration of NADH to promote a monooxygenase-catalysed oxyfunctionalization reaction.

- Reduction of amine N-oxides by diboron reagents
-
Facile reduction of alkylamino-, anilino-, and pyridyl-N-oxides can be achieved via the use of diboron reagents, predominantly bis- (pinacolato)- and in some cases bis(catecholato)diboron [(pinB)2 and (catB)2, respectively]. Reductions occur upon simply mixing the amine N oxide and the diboron reagent in a suitable solvent, at a suitable temperature. Extremely fast reductions of alkylamino- and anilino-N-oxides occur, whereas pyridyl-N-oxides undergo slower reduction. The reaction is tolerant of a variety of functionalities such as hydroxyl, thiol, and cyano groups, as well as halogens. Notably, a sensitive nucleoside N-oxide has also been reduced efficiently. The different rates with which alkylamino- and pyridyl-N-oxides are reduced has been used to perform stepwise reduction of the N,N-dioxide of (S)-(-)-nicotine. Because it was observed that (pinB)2 was unaffected by the water of hydration in amine oxides, the feasibility of using water as solvent was evaluated. These reactions also proceeded exceptionally well, giving high product yields. In constrast to the reactions with (pinB)2, triethylborane reduced alkylamino-N oxides, but pyridine N-oxide did not undergo efficient reduction even at elevated temperature. Finally, the mechanism of the reductive process by (pinB)2 has been probed by 1H and 11B NMR. (Figure presented) ; 2011 American Chemical Society.

- Enantioselective, palladium-catalyzed α-arylation of N-Boc pyrrolidine: In situ react IR spectroscopic monitoring, scope, and synthetic applications
-
A comprehensive study of the enantioselective Pd-catalyzed α-arylation of N-Boc pyrrolidine has been carried out. The protocol involves deprotonation of N-Boc pyrrolidine using s-BuLi/(-)-sparteine in TBME or Et2O at -78 °C, transmetalation with ZnCl2 and Negishi coupling using Pd(OAc)2, t-Bu3P-HBF4 and the aryl bromide. This paper reports several new features including in situ React IR spectroscopic monitoring of the process; use of (-)-sparteine and the (+)-sparteine surrogate to access products with opposite configuration; development of a catalytic asymmetric lithiation-Negishi coupling reaction; extension to a wide range of heteroaromatic bromides; total synthesis of (R)-crispine A, (S)-nicotine and (S)-SIB-1508Y via short synthetic routes; and examples of α-vinylation of N-Boc pyrrolidine using vinyl bromides exemplified by the total synthesis of naturally occurring (+)-maackiamine (thus establishing its configuration as (R)). In this way, the full scope and limitations of the methodology are delineated.

- The pyrolysis of (-)-(S)-nicotine: Racemization and decomposition
-
The pyrolytic behaviour of (1)-(S)-nicotine in methanol was investigated using on-line pyrolysis GC/MS to establish whether racemization to the R(+) antipode occurs and to identify other products of pyrolysis. The conditions used included pyrolysing the sample for 15 seconds in an atmosphere of 9% oxygen in nitrogen (275ml/min total flow) across the temperature range of 200°C-1000°C. A chiral Cyclodex-B analytical column (30m × 0.25mm i.d. × 0.25 μm film thickness) was used to separate the enantiomers of nicotine, although the two enantiomer peaks were not baseline resolved. The results of the experiment shows that there is no increase in (+)-(R)-nicotine levels across a wide temperature range. This suggests that the elevated levels of (+)-R-nicotine observed in tobacco smoke (compared to tobacco leaf material) are not due to the pyrolytic auto-racemization of (1)-(S)-nicotine but are a result of more complex interactions between (-)-(S)-nicotine and other smoke components. The pyrolysis of isotopically labelled nicotine established that nicotine undergoes thermal decomposition to β-nicotyrine which in turn may decompose to other products. Chirality 22:442-446, 2010.

- Esters of pyromellitic acid. Part II. Esters of chiral alcohols: Para pyromellitate diesters as a novel class of resolving agents and use of pyromellitates as duplicands for chiral purification
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Methods are presented for the preparation of pyromellitate esters of chiral terpene alcohols, including d-(3) or l-menthol (4), d-isomenthol (7), l-borneol (8), or d- (5) or l-isopinocampheol (6). Alcoholysis of PMDA in CH2Cl2/Et3N led to the formation of monoesters (e.g., 18) or diesters (11, 12), as needed, relying on the differential reactivity of the two anhydride groups. The easily isolated para diester (11) crystallized before the meta diester (12) from HOAc. Nicotine (1, 14) was efficiently resolved as 1:1 salts with the menthyl (11a, 11b) or bornyl (11f) para diesters, prototypes of what promises to be a large class of novel resolving agents. Recrystallization of para-di-d-menthyl pyromellitate (11a) greatly improved the chiral purity of the contained d-menthol (3), an example of purification by "duplication". An alternative synthesis of specific diesters took advantage of the easily separated benzyl diesters and their derived acid chlorides (19, 21), with the benzyl esters serving as temporary blocking groups removable by catalytic hydrogenolysis. Pyromellitate tetraesters (26) were prepared by base-catalyzed transesterification of the tetraethyl ester (25). Tri-l-menthyl pyromellitate (27b) was obtained by catalytic hydrogenolysis of benzyl tri-l-menthyl pyromellitate (31b), itself prepared from the alcoholysis of benzyl pyromellitate triacid chloride (30) with l-menthol (4).

-
A comparative study on the allylation of aldehydes with enantiopure (SS)-2-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-prop-2-en-1-ol (SS)-1a and the corresponding chloride (SS)-1b under two different reaction systems is reported. In general, better yields were obtained from chloride (SS)-1b, whereas higher diastereoinduction was observed from alcohol (SS)-1a. The sense of diastereoinduction is the same in both systems and the stereochemistry of the major diastereomer has been determined. Moreover, the configurational stability of the sulfoxide group on the resulting sulfinyl homoallylic alcohols 3 has been proven in each reaction system, which demonstrates the efficiency of the sulfoxide group as chiral auxiliary in these allylation processes. Finally, as an example of the synthetic potential of the resulting adducts, a total synthesis of natural enantioenriched (S)-nicotine from sulfinylalcohol 3h is reported.

An intramolecular hydroboration-cycloalkylation of the homoallylic azide intermediate 15 served as the key step in the pyrrolidine ring formation. A ring closing metathesis reaction (RCM) of a diethylenic amine intermediate (S)-allyl-(1-pyridin-3-yl-but-3-enyl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester 20 served as the key step in the piperidine ring formation. From the commercially available 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde 13, a short and convenient enantiomeric synthesis of tobacco alkaloids is described: (S)-nornicotine I (5 steps, with an overall yield of 70%), (S)-hicotine 2 (6 steps, 65%), (S)-anatabine 3 (8 steps, 30%), (S)-N-methylanatabine 4 (8 steps, 25%), (S)-anabasine 5 (8 steps, 35%), and (S)-N-methylanabasine 6 (8 steps, 25%).

- Metabolism of N-alkyldiamines and N-alkylnortropinones by transformed root cultures of Nicotiana and Brugmansia
-
A range of analogues of N-methylputrescine and tropinone were fed to transformed root cultures of Nicotiana rustica and/or a Brugmansia candida x aurea hybrid. These cultures were made by the transformation of the relevant plant species with Agrobacterium rhizogenes. A number of the metabolites, notably those showing a relatively modest alteration in the N-alkyl substituent, were metabolized in vivo to form homologues of the normal alkaloids biosynthesized by these roots. These products were identified by GC/MS and comparison with some synthetic reference materials. Analogues with major alterations in the size of the N-alkyl substituent were not metabolized at all. In the N. rustica cultures, the analogues fed at 1 mM significantly affected the profile of normal alkaloids, with up to a 4-fold diminution in nicotine being found in the presence of N-n-propylputrescine. The ratio between alkaloids of the pyrrolidine series and the piperideine series was also affected. In contrast, the presence of the analogues in the B. candida x aurea hybrid culture at 1 mM did not inhibit or substantially interfere with the accumulation of the normal spectrum of alkaloids. The potential for using these cultures to make complex novel products from simple precursors is discussed.

- A Practical and Efficient Synthesis of the Selective Neuronal Acetylcholine-Gated Ion Channel Agonist (S)-(-)-5-Ethynyl-3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)pyridine Maleate (SIB-1508Y)
-
An efficient, high-yielding synthetic procedure for the preparation of the novel neuronal acetylcholinegated ion channel agonist (S)-(-)-5-ethynyl-3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)pyridine maleate [(S)-2, SIB-1508Y] is described. The key steps in the process include the lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide-mediated acylation of N-vinylpyrrolidinone with ethyl 5-bromonicotinate, a high-yielding sodium borohydride reduction of imine 5, and a new heteroaryl-alkyne cross-coupling protocol for the introduction of the ethyne moiety in (S)-2. The preparation of enantiomerically pure (S)-2 was accomplished via a combination of enantioselective reduction of imine 5 and crystallization of enantiomerically enriched 5-bromo-3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)pyridine (7) as the dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid salt.
