N-1 regioselective Michael-type addition of 5-substituted uracils to (2-hydroxyethyl) acrylate.

ABSTRACT: N-1 regioselective Michael-type addition of 5-substituted uracils to (2-hydroxyethyl) acrylate is presented. The reactions were performed in polar aprotic solvents and with avoidance of polymerization of acrylic substrate. The obtained adducts may serve as versatile substrates for further functionalization, e.g. into (3-uracil-1-yl)propanoic acids or transformations, with participation of hydroxyl group, into ester-conjugated acyclic nucleosides.

Michael-type addition of azoles of broad-scale acidity to methyl acrylate.

Project description:An optimisation of Michael-type addition of azole derivatives of broad-scale acidity - ranging from 5.20 to 15.00 pK(a) units - namely 4-nitropyrazole, 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitropyrazole, 4(5)-nitroimidazole, 4,5-diphenylimidazole, 4,5-dicyanoimidazole, 2-methyl-4(5)-nitroimidazole, 5(4)-bromo-2-methyl-4(5)-nitroimidazole and 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole to methyl acrylate as an acceptor was carried out. The optimisation process involved the use of an appropriate basic catalyst (DBU, DIPEA, NaOH, NaH, TEDA), a donor/base/acceptor ratio and the reaction temperature. The reactions were performed in DMF as solvent. Target Michael adducts were obtained in medium to excellent yields. Importantly, for imidazole and 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, no corresponding regioisomers were obtained.

Synthesis of highly substituted tetrahydroquinolines using ethyl cyanoacetate <i>via</i> aza-Michael-Michael addition.

Project description:A three-component cascade reaction involving 2-alkenyl aniline, aldehydes, and ethyl cyanoacetate in the presence of DBU to synthesize highly substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines is reported. The reaction proceeded through the Knoevenagel condensation of ethyl cyanoacetate with aldehydes followed by the aza-Michael-Michael addition with 2-alkenyl anilines to prepare the tetrahydroquinoline scaffolds.

Organocatalytic asymmetric Michael addition of unprotected 3-substituted oxindoles to 1,4-naphthoquinone.

Project description:We reported the first example of organocatalytic Michael addition of unprotected 3-prochiral oxindoles 1 to 1,4-naphthoquinone. Quinidine derivative (DHQD)(2)PYR was found to be able to catalyze this reaction in up to 83% ee, with moderate to excellent yields. This method could be used for the synthesis of enantioenriched 3,3-diaryloxindoles, and the catalytic synthesis of which was unprecedented.

Squaramide-catalyzed enantioselective Michael addition of masked acyl cyanides to substituted enones.

Project description:Masked acyl cyanide (MAC) reagents are shown to be effective umpolung synthons for enantioselective Michael addition to substituted enones. The reactions are catalyzed by chiral squaramides and afford adducts in high yields (90-99%) and with excellent enantioselectivities (85-98%). The addition products are unmasked to produce dicyanohydrins that, upon treatment with a variety of nucleophiles, provide γ-keto acids, esters, and amides. The use of this umpolung synthon has enabled, in enantiomerically enriched form, the first total synthesis of the prenylated phenol (+)-fornicin C.

Terahertz Spectral Properties of 5-Substituted Uracils.

Project description:Applications of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) in the fields of chemistry and biomedicine have recently received increased attention. Specifically, THz-TDS is particularly effective for the identification of alkaloid molecules, because it can distinguish the vibration types of base molecules in the THz band and provide a direct characteristic spectrum for the configuration and conformation of biomolecules. However, when THz-TDS technology is used to identify alkaloid molecules, most of them are concentrated in the 0.1-3.0 THz band, limiting the amount of information that can be obtained. In this work, a wide-spectrum THz-TDS system was independently built to explore the absorption spectra of uracil and its 5-substituents in the range of 1.3-6.0 THz. We found that, in the THz band, uracil and its 5-substituents have similar absorption peaks near 4.9 and 3.3 THz, while the 5-substituents have an additional absorption peak in the range of 1.5-2.5 THz. This absorption peak is red-shifted as the relative atomic mass of the 5-substituted atoms increases. Gaussian software was adopted to calculate the absorption spectra of the samples. The simulation conclusions were in good agreement with the experimental results, revealing that the vibration of the base molecule at low frequencies can be attributed to the inter-molecular vibration. This work demonstrates that THz-TDS technology can be used to accurately identify biomolecules with similar molecular structures, reflecting the importance of molecular structure in biological activity.

Stereodivergent organocatalytic intramolecular Michael addition/lactonization for the asymmetric synthesis of substituted dihydrobenzofurans and tetrahydrofurans.

Project description:A stereodivergent asymmetric Lewis base catalyzed Michael addition/lactonization of enone acids into substituted dihydrobenzofuran and tetrahydrofuran derivatives is reported. Commercially available (S)-(-)-tetramisole hydrochloride gives products with high syn diastereoselectivity in excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99:1 d.r.syn/anti , 99 % eesyn ), whereas using a cinchona alkaloid derived catalyst gives the corresponding anti-diastereoisomers as the major product (up to 10:90 d.r.syn/anti , 99 % eeanti ).

Enantioenriched α-substituted glutamates/pyroglutamates via enantioselective cyclopropenimine-catalyzed Michael addition of amino ester imines.

Project description:A procedure for the enantioselective synthesis of α-substituted glutamates and pyroglutamates via a cyclopropenimine-catalyzed Michael addition of amino ester imines is described. Enantioselectivities of up to 94% have been achieved, and a variety of functional groups were found to be compatible. The impact of the catalyst structure and imine substitution is discussed. Compared to other methods, this protocol allows for a broader and more enantioselective access to pyroglutamate derivatives.

The Effect of Hydrogen Bonding on Radical Semi-Batch Copolymerization of Butyl Acrylate and 2-Hydroxyethyl Acrylate.

Project description:The radical copolymerization of butyl acrylate (BA) and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) was investigated under batch and semi-batch operations, with a focus on the influence of hydrogen-bonding on acrylate backbiting. The effect of hydrogen bonding on HEA to BA relative incorporation rates during copolymerization, previously seen in low-conversion kinetic studies, was also observed under high-conversion semi-batch conditions. However, overall reaction rates (as indicated by free monomer concentrations), polymer molar masses, and branching levels did not vary as copolymer HEA content was increased from 0 to 40 wt % in the semi-batch system. In contrast, introduction of a H-bonding solvent, n-pentanol, led to an observable decrease in branching levels, and branching levels were also reduced in batch (co)polymerizations with HEA. These differences can be attributed to the low levels of unreacted HEA in the starved-feed semi-batch system.

AvmM catalyses macrocyclization through dehydration/Michael-type addition in alchivemycin A biosynthesis

Project description:Macrocyclization is an important process that affords morphed scaffold in biosynthesis of bioactive natural products. Nature has adapted diverse biosynthetic strategies to form macrocycles. In this work, we report the identification and characterization of a small enzyme AvmM that can catalyze the construction of a 16-membered macrocyclic ring in the biosynthesis of alchivemycin A (1). We show through in vivo gene deletion, in vitro biochemical assay and isotope labelling experiments that AvmM catalyzes tandem dehydration and Michael-type addition to generate the core scaffold of 1. Mechanistic studies by crystallography, DFT calculations and MD simulations of AvmM reveal that the reactions are achieved with assistance from the special tenuazonic acid like moiety of substrate. Our results thus uncover an uncharacterized macrocyclization strategy in natural product biosynthesis. Macrocyclization is an important process in bioactive natural product synthesis. Here, the authors report on the study of a macrocyclic ring constructing enzyme in the biosynthesis of alchivemycin A and using gene deletion, biochemical assays and isotope labelling show the enzyme catalyses tandem dehydration and Michael-type addition.
