- Photoredox/Cobalt Dual-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Elimination of Carboxylic Acids: Development and Mechanistic Insight
-
Recently, dual-catalytic strategies towards the decarboxylative elimination of carboxylic acids have gained attention. Our lab previously reported a photoredox/cobaloxime dual catalytic method that allows the synthesis of enamides and enecarbamates directly from N-acyl amino acids and avoids the use of any stoichiometric reagents. Further development, detailed herein, has improved upon this transformation's utility and further experimentation has provided new insights into the reaction mechanism. These new developments and insights are anticipated to aid in the expansion of photoredox/cobalt dual-catalytic systems.

- Synthesis and SAR of a novel positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 4 (mGluR4)
-
This Letter describes the synthesis and SAR of the novel positive allosteric modulator, VU0155041, a compound that has shown in vivo efficacy in rodent models of Parkinson's disease. The synthesis takes advantage of an iterative parallel synthesis approach to rapidly synthesize and evaluate a number of analogs of VU0155041.

- Coupling of β-cyanocarbene-chromium complexes with 2-alkynylbenzoyl derivatives: A [5+5]-cycloaddition approach to phenanthridines
-
The coupling of β-cyanocarbene complexes and 2-alkynylbenzoyl derivatives has been examined. The reaction afforded phenanthridine derivatives in a complex tandem process involving carbene-alkyne coupling, isobenzofuran formation, intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction using a nitrile dienophile, and deoxygenation. The chemistry could not be reproduced in non-chromium-based systems. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

- Novel Synthesis of Isoquinolines Using Isobenzofuran-Nitrile Diels-Alder Reactions
-
(Equation presented) The synthesis of isoquinolines through coupling of 2-alkynylbenzaldehyde derivatives with β-cyanocarbene complexes has been examined. The reaction involves formation of an isobenzofuran followed by intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction with the nitrite, a process with limited precedent. The unique success of this process in this system has been attributed to deoxygenation of the initial adduct to form the isoquinoline ring system.

- 1,3-Diaryl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-isoindole derivatives: A new series of potent and selective COX-2 inhibitors in which a sulfonyl group is not a structural requisite
-
Novel tetrahydro-2H-isoindoles have been prepared and evaluated as inhibitors of the COX-2 isoenzyme. A 1,3-diaryl substitution on the central polycyclic ring system and absence of a sulfonyl moiety are the two structural features of this chemical series.

- EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES OF THE ANOMERIC EFFECT. PART 2 RING INVERSION AND NITROGEN INVERSION EQUILIBRIA IN CIS-DECAHYDROQUINAZOLINES
-
The positions of conformational equilibria due to the double ring inversion in cis-decahydroquinazoline (7-->//07-->8 1.08 kcal mol-1; -ΔG09-->10 1.10 kcal mol-1) for the conformation which would allow the lone pairs on N(1) and N(3) to lie on the hindered 'inside' face of the molecules.However, the values of 3J(CHNH) coupling constants for both cis-decahydro-3-methylquinazoline (10) and cis (4aH, 8aH) cis (2H, 8aH)-decahydro-2,3-dimethylquinazoline (14) show that the N-inversion equilibrium at N(1) prefers the conformation in which N(1)-H is 'inside' (axial), and N(1)-lone pair equatorial, thus demonstrating the ability of the anomeric effect to outweigh steric repulsions.

- Intramolecular Influence of a Carboxylic Function on Platinium Blue Synthesis. A systematic Study of Complexes Originating from Acid Amides
-
The use of acid amide as ligand for obtaining platinium blue has been investigated.While blue compounds are generally obtained by using the hydrolysis product of cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) as platinum surce, with such ligands the reaction occurs very readily using potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II).The role of the carboxylic function which offers here a primary ligating site to platinum is evidenced.The compounds obtained have been characterized by UV-visible spectral measurments, Ce(IV) oxydative titration , ESR spectroscopy, and magnetic properties.Antitumoral activity toward leukemia L1210 and sarcoma 180 is reported for two of thesecompounds.As a first step for this antitumor study, these compounds have been found to be inactive toward Leukemia while they presnt intersting activity toward Sarcoma.
