Lithium perchlorate-, acetic anhydride-, and triphenylphosphine-assisted multicomponent syntheses of 4-unsubstituted 2,5-dioxooctahydroquinoline-3- carboxylates and 3-carbonitriles

Lithium perchlorate and acetic anhydride were the key additives for the multi-component reaction between 3-aminocyclohex-2-enones, formaldehyde, and malonates yielding adducts that were annulated under acidic conditions to afford bicyclic 2,5-dioxooctahydroquinoline-3-carboxylates. When methyl cyanoacetate was subjected to the same reaction conditions in the presence of a catalytic amount of triphenylphosphine, the bicyclic 2,5-dioxooctahydroquinoline-3- carbonitriles were obtained in a one-flask reaction.

The manginoids are a unique collection of bioactive natural products whose structures fuse an oxa-bridged spirocyclohexanedione with a heavily substituted trans-hydrindane framework. Herein, we show that such architectures can be accessed through a strategy combining a challenging pinacol coupling and bicycle-forming etherification with several additional chemo- and regioselective reactions. The success of these key events proved to be highly substrate and condition specific, affording insights for their application to other targets. As a result, not only has a 19-step total synthesis of manginoid A been achieved, but a potential roadmap to access other members of the family and related natural products has also been identified.

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.
Tandem Remote Csp3-H Activation/Csp3-Csp3 Cleavage in Unstrained Aliphatic Chains Assisted by Palladium(II)

We report here a proof-of-concept for the cleavage of unstrained remote Csp3-Csp3 bonds at room temperature assisted by a directing group, opening up new possibilities to use aliphatic carboxylic acids as suitable alkenyl coupling partners. This strategy involves the Pd-mediated Csp3-H activation directed by a tethered 8-aminoquinoline group, followed by a concerted asynchronous carbene insertion into the Pd-C bond, and an unexpected β-carbon-carbon bond splitting. The insertion of a coupling partner into a Pd-C bond is a novel route to promote C-C bond cleavage, which in contrast to most common methodologies does not rely on the use of strained carbocycles.
