- Regio- and stereoselective synthesis of bromoalkenes by homolytic hydrobromination of alkynes with hydrogen bromide
-
Homolytic hydrobromination of terminal and internal alkynes with a commercially available solution of hydrogen bromide in acetic acid has been investigated for regio- and stereoselective synthesis of bromoalkenes. Under an aerobic atmosphere at room temperature, the reaction of ethynylarenes with a small excess of HBr efficiently gave (2-bromoethenyl)arenes with good to high E-selectivity. (Alk-1-ynyl)arenes, or internal alkynes bearing both phenyl and alkyl groups at the sp-carbons also underwent the air-initiated hydrobromination to exhibit high Z-selectivity under kinetic conditions using a half equivalent of HBr.

- Iodonium Cation-Pool Electrolysis for the Three-Component Synthesis of 1,3-Oxazoles
-
The synthesis of 1,3-oxazoles from symmetrical and unsymmetrical alkynes was realized by an iodonium cation-pool electrolysis of I2 in acetonitrile with a well-defined water content. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the alkyne reacts with the acetonitrile-stabilized I+ ions, followed by a Ritter-type reaction of the solvent to a nitrilium ion, which is then attacked by water. The ring closure to the 1,3-oxazoles released molecular iodine, which was visible by the naked eye. Also, some unsymmetrical internal alkynes were tested and a regioselective formation of a single isomer was determined by two-dimensional NMR experiments.

- Facile Conversion of Molecularly Complex (Hetero)aryl Carboxylic Acids into Alkynes for Accelerated SAR Exploration
-
1,2,3-Triazoles are well-established bioisosteres for amides, often installed as a result of structure?activity-relationship (SAR) exploration. A straightforward approach to assess the effect of the replacement of an amide by a triazole would start from the carboxylic acid and the amine used for the formation of a given amide and convert them into the corresponding alkyne and azide for cyclization by copper-catalyzed alkyne?azide cycloaddition (CuAAC). Herein, we report a functional-group-tolerant and operationally simple decarbonylative alkynylation that allows the conversion of complex (hetero)aryl carboxylic acids into alkynes. Furthermore, the utility of this method was demonstrated in the preparation of a triazolo analog of the commercial drug moclobemide. Lastly, mechanistic investigations using labeled carboxylic acid derivatives clearly show the decarbonylative nature of this transformation.

- Fritsch-Buttenberg-Wiechell rearrangement of magnesium alkylidene carbenoids leading to the formation of alkynes
-
A series of 1-heteroatom-substituted vinyl p-tolyl sulfoxides were prepared and treated with organometallic reagents to evaluate which combination of sulfoxides and organometallic reagents yielded alkynes the most efficiently. The use of 1-chlorovinyl p-tolyl sulfoxide and isopropylmagnesium chloride was optimal for this purpose. A variety of 1-chlorovinyl p-tolyl sulfoxides were prepared from carbonyl compounds and chloromethyl p-tolyl sulfoxide and were converted into alkynes via the sulfoxide/magnesium exchange reaction and subsequent Fritsch-Buttenberg-Wiechell (FBW) rearrangement of the resulting magnesium alkylidene carbenoids. The mechanism of the FBW rearrangement of magnesium alkylidene carbenoids was studied by using13C-labeled sulfoxides and by using DFT calculations.

- Design, synthesis, antileishmanial, and antifungal biological evaluation of novel 3,5-disubstituted isoxazole compounds based on 5-nitrofuran scaffolds
-
Nineteen 3,5-disubstituted-isoxazole analogs were synthesized based on nitrofuran scaffolds, by a [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between terminal acetylenes and 5-nitrofuran chloro-oxime. The compounds were obtained in moderate to very good yields (45–91%). The antileishmanial activity was assayed against the promastigote and amastigote forms of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis. Alkylchlorinated compounds 14p–r were active on both the promastigote and amastigote forms, with emphasis on compound 14p, which showed strong activity against the amastigote form (IC50 = 0.6 μM and selectivity index [SI] = 5.2). In the alkyl series, compound 14o stands out with an IC50 = 8.5 μM and SI = 8.0 on the amastigote form. In the aromatic series, the most active compounds were those containing electron-donor groups, such as trimethoxy isoxazole 14g (IC50 = 1.2 μM and SI = 20.2); compound 14h, with IC50 = 7.0 μM and SI = 6.1; and compound 14j containing the 4-SCH3 group, with IC50 = 5.7 μM and SI = 10.2. In addition, the antifungal activity of 19 nitrofuran isoxazoles was evaluated against five strains of Candida (C. albicans, C. parapsilosis, C. krusei, C. tropicalis, and C. glabrata). Eleven isoxazole derivatives were active against C. parapsilosis, and compound 14o was found to be the most active (minimal inhibitory concentration [MIC] = 3.4 μM) for this strain. Compound 14p was active against all the strains tested, with an MIC = 17.5 μM for C. glabrata, lower than that of the fluconazole used as the reference drug.

- p-TSA-Based DESs as “Active Green Solvents” for Microwave Enhanced Cyclization of 2-Alkynyl-(hetero)-arylcarboxylates: an Alternative Access to 6-Substituted 3,4-Fused 2-Pyranones
-
In this paper, we describe the use of p-TSA based Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) as alternative environmental-friendly “active” solvents for the microwave-mediated synthesis of 6-substituted 3,4-fused 2-pyranones, and in particular isocoumarins, starting from 2-alkynyl-(hetero)arylcarboxylates. When the alkyne terminus bears a neutral or an electron-donating group (EDG), the reactions are fast, clean and highly regioselective, to give the 6-endo-dig cyclization products in good to excellent yields. For substrates bearing an electron-withdrawing group (EWG) on the alkyne end, the regioselectivity can be tuned by adding a small amount of silver(I) triflate as co-catalyst. DES was demonstrated to be reusable without loss of efficiency in terms of reaction yields. Based on experimental evidence and previous findings, two competitive mechanisms working simultaneously are proposed to explain the outcomes and the regioselectivity issues.

Two well known synthetic organic reactions Ramirez olefination and Corey-fuchs reactions are integrated in one-pot sequential manner for the synthesis of arylacetylenes and 1,3-enynes starting directly from commercially available aldehydes. The bicyclic amidine 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) along with additive NaOH not only exclusively afforded the terminal alkynes directly from the aldehydes, but also enhanced the reaction rate. The dynamic nature of DBU also facilitated the isolation of 1-bromoalkynes intermediate products. Selection of additive from NaOH and H2O served as a switch for the synthesis of terminal alkyne and 1-bromoalkynes, respectively. (Figure presented.).

This method provides a rapid access to diverse heterocycles in moderate to excellent yields.

The procedure is based on two sequential reactions: deprotection of R–C≡C–C≡C– C(Me)2OH derivatives in a retro-Favorskii reaction to furnish a terminal 1,3-butadiyne compound, which reacted with aryl iod-ides in a Sonogashira-type cross-coupling reaction catalyzed by Pd(PPh3)4 and CuI, using TBAOH as activator and toluene as solvent under reflux for 10 min. We also studied in situ thiocycli-zation of 1,3-butadiynes, leading to unsymmetrical 2,5-diaryl-thiophenes. The principal features of this method are operational simplicity, good substrate scope, very fast reaction, and high yields.

Direct synthesis of alkynes from inexpensive, abundant alcohols was achieved in high yields (greater than 40 examples, up to 95% yield) through a SO2F2-promoted dehydration and dehydrogenation process. This straightforward transformation of sp3-sp3 (C-C) bonds to sp-sp (C=C) bonds requires only inexpensive and readily available reagents (no transition metals) under mild conditions. The crude alkynes are sufficiently free of impurities to permit direct use in further transformations, as illustrated by regioselective Huisgen alkyne-azide cycloaddition reactions with PhN3 to give 1,4-substituted 1,2,3-traiazoles (16 examples, up to 92% yield) and Sonogashira couplings (10 examples, up to 77% yield).

Hydroboration of conjugated enyne alcohol/amine is studied by using copper salts and bis(pinacolato)diboron as pre-catalysts and boron source respectively. It is suggested that the chemo-selectivity is derived from a combined electronic influence of the heteroatoms on the substrate and the ligand on the transition metal. The regioselectivity is probably dominated mainly by electronic effect of the alkyne substituent. This study resulted in a highly selective protocol to access Z,Z-/Z,E-1,3-dien-1/2-ylboronic ester bearing hydroxyl/amino group.

- Structure-based design, synthesis and evaluation in vitro of arylnaphthyridinones, arylpyridopyrimidinones and their tetrahydro derivatives as inhibitors of the tankyrases
-
Abstract The tankyrases are members of the PARP superfamily; they poly(ADP-ribosyl)ate their target proteins using NAD+ as a source of electrophilic ADP-ribosyl units. The three principal protein substrates of the tankyrases (TRF1, NuMA and axin) are involved in replication of cancer cells; thus inhibitors of the tankyrases may have anticancer activity. Using structure-based drug design and by analogy with known 3-arylisoquinolin-1-one and 2-arylquinazolin-4-one inhibitors, series of arylnaphthyridinones, arylpyridinopyrimidinones and their tetrahydro-derivatives were synthesised and evaluated in vitro. 7-Aryl-1,6-naphthyridin-5-ones, 3-aryl-2,6-naphthyridin-1-ones and 3-aryl-2,7-naphthyridin-1-ones were prepared by acid-catalysed cyclisation of the corresponding arylethynylpyridinenitriles or reaction of bromopyridinecarboxylic acids with β-diketones, followed by treatment with NH3. The 7-aryl-1,6-naphthyridin-5-ones were methylated at 1-N and reduced to 7-aryl-1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridin-5-ones. Cu-catalysed reaction of benzamidines with bromopyridinecarboxylic acids furnished 2-arylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones. Condensation of benzamidines with methyl 1-benzyl-4-oxopiperidine-3-carboxylate and deprotection gave 2-aryl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones, aza analogues of the known inhibitor XAV939. Introduction of the ring-N in the arylnaphthyridinones and the arylpyridopyrimidinones caused >1000-fold loss in activity, compared with their carbocyclic isoquinolinone and quinazolinone analogues. However, the 7-aryl-1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridin-5-ones showed excellent inhibition of the tankyrases, with some examples having IC50 = 2 nM. One compound (7-(4-bromophenyl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridin-5-one) showed 70-fold selectivity for inhibition of tankyrase-2 versus tankyrase-1. The mode of binding was explored through crystal structures of inhibitors in complex with tankyrase-2.

- An efficient method for the production of terminal alkynes from 1,1-dibromo-1-alkenes and its application in the total synthesis of natural product dihydroxerulin
-
An efficient method of preparing various terminal alkynes from 1,1-dibromo-1-alkenes by using TBAF (tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride) as a base and triphenylphosphane as a reductant was developed. This method is strong base and low/high temperatures free, and can tolerate a broad range of substrates. These advantages were well demonstrated by the application of this method to the total synthesis of polyene natural product dihydroxerulin.

- Copper-catalyzed radical reaction of N -tosylhydrazones: Stereoselective synthesis of (E)-vinyl sulfones
-
A new chemistry of hydrazines that is a copper-catalyzed radical reaction to synthesize vinyl sulfones from readily available N-tosylhydrazones has been described. The protocol provides a novel strategy for the synthesis of various vinyl sulfones including α, β-disubstituted ones and terminal ones. The advantages of the transformation include excellent E stereoselectivity, broad substrate scope, low cost of reagents, and convenient operation. A novel and efficient one-pot synthesis of alkynes from N-tosylhydrazones has been achieved. The studies provide important complementary approaches for the syntheses of vinyl sulfones and alkynes.

- Tandem Claisen Rearrangement/6-endo Cyclization Approach to Allylated and Prenylated Chromones
-
Allyl, dimethylallyl and prenyl ethers derived from o-acylphenols reacted upon microwave irradiation to form C-allylated or -prenylated chromone derivatives, depending on the substitution pattern of the arene and the allyl substituent. The reaction proceeds through a tandem Claisen rearrangement and 6-endo-trig or 6-endo-dig cyclization sequence. For prenyl ethers, the tandem sequence can be extended by a Cope rearrangement to furnish 6-prenylchromones. The method is potentially useful for the synthesis of natural products and drugs.

-
A convenient method for the [2+2+2] cyclotrimerisation of alkynes using Ti(OiPr)4/nBuLi is presented. Homotrimerisation of arylacetylenes proceeds within minutes with excellent regioselectivity. Moreover, the intermolecular construction of ABB heterotrimers can be achieved selectively from two different alkynes with similar electronic properties. The method is also suitable for the synthesis of pyridines.

- Synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles from azide-derivatised aminocyclitols by catalytic diazo transfer and CuAAC click chemistry
-
CuII-catalysed diazo transfer and CuI-catalysed azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) "click chemistry" were used to synthesis C7N aminocyclitol-derivatised 1,2,3-triazoles. In the course of this work, the -N=N- moiety was transferred onto C7N aminocyclitols such as validamine, valienamine and valiolamine by employing imidazole-1-sulfonyl azide as the diazo transfer reagent with catalysis by CuII, ZnII and NiII, in moderate to good yields. The obtained azidocyclitols were coupled with various terminal alkynes under modified Meldal's conditions with good to excellent yields. The stereo- and regiochemistry of the products were confirmed by 2D-NMR (NOESY and HMBC). One-pot syntheses of the corresponding 1,2,3-triazoles, as safer and more efficient procedures, were also investigated and gave moderate to good yields. Copyright

- In situ generation of the Ohira-Bestmann reagent from stable sulfonyl azide: Scalable synthesis of alkynes from aldehydes
-
We report an improved method for in situ generation of the Ohira-Bestmann reagent. Using the recently reported bench-stable imidazole-1-sulfonyl azide as diazotransfer reagent, this new method represents a scalable and convenient approach for the transformation of aldehydes into terminal alkynes. The method features an easier workup compared to the existing in situ protocol due to increased aqueous solubility of waste products.

- Are 1,4- and 1,5-Disubstituted 1,2,3-Triazoles Good Pharmacophoric Groups?
-
Over the last decade, 1,2,3-triazoles have received increasing attention in medicinal chemistry thanks to the discovery of the highly useful and widely applicable 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between azides and alkynes (click chemistry) catalyzed by copper salts and ruthenium complexes. After a decade of medicinal chemistry research on 1,2,3-triazoles, we feel that the time is ripe to demonstrate the real ability of this heterocycle to participate in important and pivotal binding interactions with biological targets while maintaining a good pharmacokinetic profile. In this study, we retrieved and analyzed X-ray crystal structures of complexes between 1,2,3-triazoles and either proteins or DNA to understand the pharmacophoric role of the triazole. Furthermore, the metabolic stability, the capacity to inhibit cytochromes, and the contribution of 1,2,3-triazoles to the overall aqueous solubility of compounds containing them have been analyzed. This information should furnish fresh insight for medicinal chemists in the design of novel bioactive molecules that contain the triazole nucleus.

- Investigation of quantitative structure-reactivity relationships in the aliphatic Claisen rearrangement of bis-vinyl ethers reveals a dipolar, dissociative mechanism
-
Kinetic investigations of substituent effects in the thermal rearrangement of bis-vinyl ether substrates are reported. Findings indicate that the influence of the various substituent patterns on the rate of rearrangement in these compounds differs from that documented in the literature for the analogous [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of allyl vinyl ethers. In addition, the thermochemical data collected suggests the existence of a dissociative transition state with significant dipolar character. These findings provide a unique contribution to the already extensive body of literature dedicated to mechanistic investigation of the Claisen rearrangement of aliphatic allyl vinyl ethers.

- 2-Aryl-3H-indol-3-ones: Synthesis, electrochemical behaviour and antiplasmodial activities
-
The synthesis of indolone derivatives and their antiplasmodial activity in vitro against Plasmodium falciparum at the blood stage are described. The 2-aryl-3H-indol-3-ones were synthesized via deoxygenation of indolone-N-oxides. Electrochemical behaviour, antiplasmodial activity and cytotoxicity on human tumor cell lines were compared to those of indolone-N-oxides. The antiplasmodial IC50 (concentrations at 50% inhibition) of these compounds ranged between 49 and 1327 nM. Among them, the 2-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-5-methoxy- indol-3-one, 7, had the best antiplasmodial activity in vitro (IC50 = 49 nM; FcB1 strain) and selectivity index (SI (CC50 MCF7/IC 50 FcB1) = 423.4). Thus, the hits identified in this deoxygenated series correspond to their structural homologs in the N-oxide series with comparable electrochemical behaviour at the nitrogen-carbon double bond.

- Regio- and stereoselective dimerization of arylacetylenes and optical and electrochemical studies of (E)-1,3-enynes
-
The N-heterocyclic carbene palladium complex (SIPr)Pd(cinnamyl)Cl [SIPr=N,N'-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-4,5-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene) promotes regio- and stereospecific dimerization of a variety of arylalkynes to give (E)-1,3-enynes in good to excellent yields. An efficient and practical procedure for their synthesis was developed using a biphasic aqueous alkali/heptane system. Optical and electronic properties of (E)-1,3-enynes are highly tunable. Depending on the nature of the substituents, HOMO energies vary in the range 5.3-6.0eV. (E)-1,3-Enynes can exhibit intense photoluminescence in the spectral region 350-500nm.

The Sonogashira-Glaser sequence combined with a microwave-assisted cyclization is a powerful tool to synthesize unsymmetrically substituted conjugated thiophenes. A variety of 3-(hetero)arylmethyl-2,5-di(hetero)aryl-substituted thiophenes could be synthesized in moderate to excellent yields using a single Pd/Cu catalyst system. The presented method is strikingly simple to perform using commercially available starting materials. The obtained trisubstituted oligothiophene derivatives are interesting molecules for materials science.

Quick, but not dirty! Microwave heating was found to have a significant effect on the Ru-catalyzed hydrovinylations of alkynes. A broad range of different terminal alkynes were coupled to methyl acrylate within just 30min in good to excellent yields (see scheme). This new protocol was transferred to the hydrovinylation of enynes as novel coupling partners in C-H-activation chemistry giving different 1,3,5-trienes as the sole products. Copyright
