Carbonylation of epoxides to substituted 3-hydroxy-delta-lactones.

ABSTRACT: Substituted 3-hydroxy-delta-lactones (3HLs) are valuable intermediates in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other biologically active natural products. Herein we report the first example of the catalytic carbonylation of substituted homoglycidols to 3HLs using HCo(CO)4. Upon optimization of the catalyst and reaction conditions, a functionally diverse set of 3HLs was prepared. Mechanistic insight was gained by observation of the carbonylation reaction using in situ IR spectroscopy, and we propose a mechanism that is consistent with previously studied epoxide carbonylation systems.

Flow carbonylation of sterically hindered ortho-substituted iodoarenes.

Project description:The flow synthesis of ortho-substituted carboxylic acids, using carbon monoxide gas, has been studied for a number of substrates. The optimised conditions make use of a simple catalyst system compromising of triphenylphosphine as the ligand and palladium acetate as the pre-catalyst. Carbon monoxide was introduced via a reverse "tube-in-tube" flow reactor at elevated pressures to give yields of carboxylated products that are much higher than those obtained under normal batch conditions.

Fluorinated ?-Lactones and Poly(?-hydroxyalkanoate)s: Synthesis via Epoxide Carbonylation and Ring-Opening Polymerization.

Project description:Efficient and mild reaction conditions were developed for the catalytic carbonylation of fluorinated epoxides to their corresponding ?-lactones. Six new lactones with fluorinated side chains were prepared in high isolated yields. These lactones were polymerized to form a series of new poly(?-hydroxyalkanoate)s with fluorinated side chains, and their properties were examined with respect to their hydrocarbon analogs. Finally, copolymerizations were performed with fluorinated lactones and ?-butyrolactone, which resulted in tapered copolymers rather than the expected random copolymers.

Ligand-Controlled Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylation of Alkynols: Highly Selective Synthesis of α-Methylene-β-Lactones.

Project description:The first general and regioselective Pd-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation to give α-methylene-β-lactones is reported. Key to the success for this process is the use of a specific sterically demanding phosphine ligand based on N-arylated imidazole (L11) in the presence of Pd(MeCN)2 Cl2 as pre-catalyst. A variety of easily available alkynols provide under additive-free conditions the corresponding α-methylene-β-lactones in moderate to good yields with excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity. The applicability of this novel methodology is showcased by the direct carbonylation of biologically active molecules including natural products.

Highly substituted lactone/ester-containing furan library by the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of hydroxyl-substituted 3-iodofurans.

Project description:Highly substituted lactone- and ester-containing furans have been prepared by the efficient palladium-catalyzed intramolecular cyclocarbonylation or intermolecular carboalkoxylation, respectively, of hydroxyl-containing 3-iodofurans, readily prepared by the iodocyclization of 2-(1-alkynyl)-2-alken-1-ones in the presence of various diols.

Alkylation of 2-substituted (6-methyl-2-pyridyl)methyllithium species with epoxides.

Project description:Substituted (6-methyl-2-pyridyl)methyllithium species were reacted with 1,2-epoxyoctane and 2-methyl-2,3-epoxynonane. The monosubstituted epoxide reacted efficiently with lutidyllithium and a number of 2-substituted (6-methyl-2-pyridyl)methyllithium derivatives. The trisubstituted epoxide gave low yields of adducts with all (2-pyridyl)methyllithium species studied. These results are discussed in the context of a proposed synthesis of cananodine.

A Single-Flask Synthesis of ?-Alkylidene and ?-Benzylidene Lactones from Ethoxyacetylene, Epoxides/Oxetanes, and Carbonyl Compounds.

Project description:Low temperature treatment of (ethoxyethynyl)lithium with epoxides or oxetanes in the presence of BF3•OEt2, followed by addition of aldehydes or ketones and warming to room temperature, affords structurally diverse five- and six-membered ?-alkylidene and ?-benzylidene lactones (5) in good to excellent yields. This one-pot process, in which three new carbon-carbon bonds and a ring are formed, affords substituted ?,?-unsaturated lactones of predominantly Z-configuration. The reaction likely occurs via alkyne-carbonyl metathesis of a hydroxy-ynol ether intermediate, acid-promoted alkene E- to Z-isomerization, and lactonization.

Protein targets for carbonylation by 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal in rat liver mitochondria.

Project description:Protein carbonylation has been associated with various pathophysiological processes. A representative reactive carbonyl species (RCS), 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), has been implicated specifically as a causative factor for the initiation and/or progression of various diseases. To date, however, little is known about the proteins and their modification sites susceptible to "carbonyl stress" by this RCS, especially in the liver. Using chemoprecipitation based on a solid-phase hydrazine chemistry coupled with LC-MS/MS bottom-up approach and database searching, we identified several protein-HNE adducts in isolated rat liver mitochondria upon HNE exposure. The identification of selected major protein targets, such as the ATP synthase ?-subunit, was further confirmed by immunoblotting and a gel-based approach in combination with LC-MS/MS. A network was also created based on the identified protein targets, which showed that the main protein interactions were associated with cell death, tumor morphology and drug metabolism, implicating the toxic nature of HNE in the liver mitoproteome. The functional consequence of carbonylation was illustrated by its detrimental impact on the activity of ATP synthase, a representative major mitochondrial protein target for HNE modifications.

Stereospecific cross-coupling reactions of aryl-substituted tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, and lactones.

Project description:The stereospecific ring-opening of O-heterocycles to provide acyclic alcohols and carboxylic acids with controlled formation of a new C-C bond is reported. These reactions provide new methods for synthesis of acyclic polyketide analogs with complex stereochemical arrays. Stereoselective synthesis of the cyclic template is utilized to control relative configuration; subsequent stereospecific nickel-catalyzed ring-opening affords the acyclic product. Aryl-substituted tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans undergo nickel-catalyzed Kumada-type coupling with a range of Grignard reagents to furnish acyclic alcohols with high diastereoselectivity. Enantioenriched lactones undergo Negishi-type cross-coupling with dimethylzinc to afford enantioenriched carboxylic acids. Application in a two-step enantioselective synthesis of an anti-dyslipidemia agent is demonstrated.

Opening of aryl-substituted epoxides to form quaternary stereogenic centers: synthesis of (-)-mesembrine.

Project description:[reaction: see text] Cycloalkanones are easily converted into aryl-substituted cyclic alkenes by the addition of an aryl Grignard reagent followed by dehydration. These alkenes are good substrates for asymmetric epoxidation. We have found that the addition of allylic and benzylic Grignard reagents can occur preferentially at the benzylic position of the derived epoxides to give the quaternary stereogenic center. This approach led to a short synthesis of the nanomolar serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (-)-mesembrine.

Iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic α-substituted lactones to chiral diols.

Project description:We report a protocol for the highly efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic α-substituted lactones via dynamic kinetic resolution. Using Ir-SpiroPAP (R)-1d as a catalyst, a wide range of chiral diols were prepared in a high yield (80-95%) with a high enantioselectivity (up to 95% ee) under mild reaction conditions. This protocol was used for enantioselective syntheses of (-)-preclamol and a chiral 2,5-disubstituted tetrahydropyran.
