- Mild Darzens Annulations for the Assembly of Trifluoromethylthiolated (SCF3) Aziridine and Cyclopropane Structures
-
We report mild new annulation approaches to trisubstituted trifluoromethylthiolated (SCF3) aziridines and cyclopropanes via Darzens inspired protocols. The products of these anionic annulations, rarely studied previously, possess attractive features rendering them valuable building blocks for synthesis platforms. In this study, trisubstituted acetophenone nucleophiles bearing SCF3 and bromine substituents in their α position were shown to undergo [2 + 1] annulations with vinyl ketones and tosyl-protected imines under mild reaction conditions.

- Design and synthesis of Mannich base-type derivatives containing imidazole and benzimidazole as lead compounds for drug discovery in Chagas Disease
-
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease, the most important parasitic infection in Latin America. The only treatments currently available are nitro-derivative drugs that are characterised by high toxicity and limited efficacy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for more effective, less toxic therapeutic agents. We have previously identified the potential for Mannich base derivatives as novel inhibitors of this parasite. To further explore this family of compounds, we synthesised a panel of 69 new analogues, based on multi-parametric structure-activity relationships, which allowed optimization of both anti-parasitic activity, physicochemical parameters and ADME properties. Additionally, we optimized our in vitro screening approaches against all three developmental forms of the parasite, allowing us to discard the least effective and trypanostatic derivatives at an early stage. We ultimately identified derivative 3c, which demonstrated excellent trypanocidal properties, and a synergistic mode of action against trypomastigotes in combination with the reference drug benznidazole. Both its druggability and low-cost production make this derivative a promising candidate for the preclinical, in vivo assays of the Chagas disease drug-discovery pipeline.

- Alkylation of Indoles with α,β-Unsaturated Ketones using Alumina in Hexanes
-
We evaluated the influence of solvent on the alumina-promoted C3-alkylation of indoles with α,β-unsaturated ketones. We found that lipophilic solvents were generally superior to hydrophilic ones with hexanes offering the 3-alkyl indole products in high yields. Thus, we demonstrate an inexpensive and procedurally simple new process that pairs acidic alumina with hexanes to achieve this important Michael alkylation. The substrate scope includes twenty-four examples with reaction yields ranging from 61 to 96%. (Figure presented.).

- Indium(III)-Catalyzed Hydration and Hydroalkoxylation of α,β-Unsaturated Ketones in Aqueous Media
-
The hydration of α,β-unsaturated ketones with water proceeded efficiently in the presence of In(OTf)3 (20 mol%) in aqueous media to afford synthetically versatile β-hydroxyketones in moderate to good yields with good functional group compatibility. The method also can be extended to the hydroalkoxylation of α,β-unsaturated ketones with various alcohols for the efficient synthesis of β-alkoxyketones as well as tetrahydrofuran derivatives. (Figure presented.).

- Chromium(III)-Catalyzed Addition of Water and Alcohol to α,β-Unsaturated Ketones for the Synthesis of β-Hydroxyl and β-Alkoxyl Ketones in Aqueous Media
-
An efficient chromium(III) chloride-catalyzed Michael-type reaction of water or alcohol with α,β-unsaturated ketones is developed. A variety of α,β-unsaturated ketones effectively reacted with either water or alcohols to give the corresponding β-hydroxyl ketones or β-alkoxyl ketones in modest to high yields with excellent compatibility to various functional groups. The approach was further utilized for the preparation of synthetically useful compounds containing tetrahydrofuran skeleton.

An intermolecular Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reaction of α,β-unsaturated ketones with allylic acetates under the catalysis of 10 mol % of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) and mediation of tributylphosphine has been developed in the presence of acetic acid, affording the desired α-coupling products. The MBH reaction has the advantages of good tolerance to many functional groups, excellent regioselectivity and E-stereoselectivity, and moderate to good yields.

- Diastereoselective Johnson-Corey-Chaykovsky trifluoroethylidenation
-
(2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl)diphenylsulfonium triflate was found to be an efficient ylide reagent for the Johnson-Corey-Chaykovsky reaction to afford trifluoromethyl epoxides, cyclopropanes and aziridines. Interestingly, excellent but different diastereoselectivity was observed for these transformations. Both trifluoromethyl epoxides and cyclopropanes were obtained with trans-selectivity, whereas aziridines were obtained with cis-selectivity.

- Iron-catalyzed α-methylenation of ketones with N,N-Dimethylacetamide: An approach for α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds
-
In this study, we developed a general iron-catalyzed α-methylenation of ketones by using N,N-dimethylacetamide as the one-carbon source. Various ketones, including aryl and alkyl ketones, enones, and dicarbonyl compounds were well tolerated to yield the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in the presence of an iron catalyst, peroxides, and N,N-dimethylacetamide under aerobic conditions. A general and facile iron-catalyzed α-methylenation of carbonyl compounds by using N-methyl amides as the one-carbon source was developed. Various carbonyl compounds (aryl- or alkyl-substituted, enones, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds) were well tolerated to furnish the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in the presence of an iron catalyst, peroxides, and N-methyl amides under aerobic conditions.

- The first heterogeneous carbonylative Stille coupling of organostannanes with aryl iodides catalyzed by MCM-41-supported bidentate phosphine palladium(0) complex
-
The first heterogeneous carbonylative Stille coupling reaction of organostannanes with aryl iodides under an atmospheric pressure of carbon monoxide has been achieved in DMF at 80 °C in the presence of a catalytic amount of an MCM-41-supported bidentate phosphine palladium(0) complex [MCM-41-2P-Pd(0)], yielding a variety of unsymmetrical ketones in good to high yields. This polymeric palladium catalyst exhibited higher activity and selectivity than PdCl2(PPh3)2 and can be recovered and recycled by a simple filtration of the reaction solution and used for at least 10 consecutive trials without any decrease in activity. Our system not only avoids the use of carbon monoxide under pressure, but also solves the basic problem of palladium catalyst recovery and reuse. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2009.

- THE KINETIC ISOTOPE EFFECT IN THE REACTIONS OF SUBSTITUTED β-CHLOROPROPIOPHENONES WITH AMINES

The kinetics of the reaction of substituted β-chloropropiophenones (RC6H4COCH2CH2Cl) and their α,α-deuterated analogs (RC6H4COCD2CH2Cl) with a series of amines in acetonitrile at 25 deg C were studied.It was shown that the relationships between the kinetic isotope effect H/kD)> and the pKa values of the amines for the substituted β-chloropropiophenones pass through a maximum and have various curvatures.The obtained dependence of kH/kD on the nature of the substituent in the substrate (?0) has complicated nonlinear character.Possible reasons for such relationships are discussed.
