Practical synthesis of 7-prenylindole.

ABSTRACT: 7-Prenylindole is a useful building block for natural product and natural product analogue synthesis. While there have been several past syntheses of 7-prenylindole, none of them is very practical for its preparation on scale. Using an aza-Claisen rearrangement as the key step, 7-prenylindole has been prepared in four steps from indoline in 62% overall yield.

PRACTICAL SYNTHESIS OF AROMATIC DITHIOCARBAMATES.

Project description:Oxidation-sensitive N,N-diaryl dithiocarbamates (DTCs) are synthesized in good yields by the generation of metal amide salts from N-benzoyl precursors, followed by addition of CS2. para-Substituted diphenylamines are prepared by electrophilic aromatic substitution of diphenylbenzamide and saponification. Deacylation of electron-rich species such as bis(p-dimethylaminophenyl)benzamide is challenging because of the oxidative sensitivity of the anionic intermediate but could be achieved in good yield by using n-BuLi to generate a hemiaminal adduct, prior to acidification. The N,N-diaryl DTCs are stable as alkali salts and can be used to produce densely packed monolayers on gold surfaces.

Practical Synthesis of Cap-4 RNA.

Project description:Eukaryotic mRNAs possess 5' caps that are determinants for their function. A structural characteristic of 5' caps is methylation, with this feature already present in early eukaryotes such as Trypanosoma. While the common cap-0 (m7 GpppN) shows a rather simple methylation pattern, the Trypanosoma cap-4 displays seven distinguished additional methylations within the first four nucleotides. The study of essential biological functions mediated by these unique structural features of the cap-4 and thereby of the metabolism of an important class of human pathogenic parasites is hindered by the lack of reliable preparation methods. Herein we describe the synthesis of custom-made nucleoside phosphoramidite building blocks for m6 2 Am and m3 Um, their incorporation into short RNAs, the efficient construction of the 5'-to-5' triphosphate bridge to guanosine by using a solid-phase approach, the selective enzymatic methylation at position N7 of the inverted guanosine, and enzymatic ligation to generate trypanosomatid mRNAs of up to 40 nucleotides in length. This study introduces a reliable synthetic strategy to the much-needed cap-4 RNA probes for integrated structural biology studies, using a combination of chemical and enzymatic steps.

Concise and Practical Total Synthesis of (+)-Abscisic Acid.

Project description:(+)-Abscisic acid 1 was obtained in a concise total synthesis from ethyl 2,6,6-trimethyl-4-oxocyclohex-2-ene-1-carboxylate (2) with 41% overall yield in seven steps. A hydroxyl group was stereoselectively introduced by Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation; then, the side chain was appended with dimethyl 2-(propan-2-ylidene)malonate (7); subsequently, selective decarboxylation of diacid 8 established the Z-configuration of the conjugated acid 1.

Practical Asymmetric Synthesis of Sitagliptin Phosphate Monohydrate.

Project description:Optically pure sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate is efficiently and practically synthesized through a chiral hemiacetal as the key intermediate in 54% overall yield starting from (E)-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)but-2-enal and N-boc-protected hydroxylamine. The chiral hemiacetal fragment is constructed by a tandem aza-Michael/hemiacetal reaction catalyzed by an organocatalyst and the influence of acidity of Brønsted acid on tandem aza-Michael/hemiacetal reaction is researched in detail.

A practical method for the synthesis of 2-alkynylpropenals.

Project description:A general method for the preparation of 2-alkynyl acroleins is described beginning with vinyl iodide 5 and involving a combination of Sonogashira coupling and Dess-Martin oxidation. Critical to the success of this approach is the use of a special workup procedure for the oxidation step. The resultant enynals participate in a variety of addition reactions including aldol condensations and reactions with organolithium compounds.

Practical Organocatalytic Synthesis of Functionalized Non-C2-Symmetrical Atropisomeric Biaryls.

Project description:An organic acid catalyzed direct arylation of aromatic C(sp(2))-H bonds in phenols and naphthols for the preparation of 1,1'-linked functionalized biaryls was developed. The products are non-C2-symmetrical, atropoisomeric, and represent previously untapped chemical space. Overall this transformation is operationally simple, does not require an external oxidant, is readily scaled up (up to 98?mmol), and the structurally diverse 2,2'-dihydroxy biaryl (i.e., BINOL-type), as well as 2-amino-2'-hydroxy products (i.e., NOBIN-type) are formed with complete regioselectivity. Density-functional calculations suggest that the quinone and imino-quinone monoacetal coupling partners are exclusively arylated at their ?-position by an asynchronous [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of a mixed acetal species which is formed in?situ under the reaction conditions.

General and practical one-pot synthesis of dihydrobenzosiloles from styrenes.

Project description:A one-pot synthesis of dihydrobenzosiloles from styrenes has been developed. The reaction involves the nickel-catalyzed hydrosilylation of styrene with diphenylsilane, followed by the iridium-catalyzed dehydrogenative cyclization. This method is efficient for both electron-rich and -deficient styrenes and exhibits good functional group tolerance, as well as excellent regioselectivity. The forming dihydrobenzosiloles can be efficiently converted into valuable benzosiloles or 2-hydroxyphenethyl alcohols.
