Gas-Phase Amidation of Carboxylic Acids with Woodward's Reagent K Ions.

Project description:Gas-phase amidation of carboxylic acids in multiply-charged peptides is demonstrated via ion/ion reactions with Woodward's reagent K (wrk) in both positive and negative mode. Woodward's reagent K, N-ethyl-3-phenylisoxazolium-3'-sulfonate, is a commonly used reagent that activates carboxylates to form amide bonds with amines in solution. Here, we demonstrate that the analogous gas-phase chemistry occurs upon reaction of the wrk ions and doubly protonated (or doubly deprotonated) peptide ions containing the carboxylic acid functionality. The reaction involves the formation of the enol ester intermediate in the electrostatic complex. Upon collisional activation, the ethyl amine on the reagent is transferred to the activated carbonyl carbon on the peptide, resulting in the formation of an ethyl amide (addition of 27 Da to the peptide) with loss of a neutral ketene derivative. Further collision-induced dissociation (CID) of the products and comparison with solution-phase amidation product confirms the structure of the ethyl amide.

A simple method for the determination of enantiomeric excess and identity of chiral carboxylic acids.

Project description:The association between an achiral copper(II) host (1) and chiral carboxylate guests was studied using exciton-coupled circular dichroism (ECCD). Enantiomeric complexes were created upon binding of the enantiomers of the carboxylate guests to the host, and the sign of the resultant CD signal allowed for determination of the configuration of the studied guest. The difference in magnitudes and shapes of the CD signals, in conjunction with linear discriminant analysis (LDA), allowed for the identity of the guest to be determined successfully. A model was created for the host-guest complexes which successfully predicts the sign of the observed CD signal. Further, Taft parameters were used in the model, leading to rationalization of the observed magnitudes of the CD signals. Finally, the enantiomeric excess (ee) of unknown samples of three chiral carboxylic acid guests was determined with an average absolute error of ±3.0%.

Direct Conversion of Carboxylic Acids to Alkyl Ketones.

Project description:An efficient and mild method for acyl-Csp3 bond formation based on the direct conversion of carboxylic acids has been established. This protocol is enabled by the synergistic, Ir-photoredox/nickel catalytic cross-coupling of in situ activated carboxylic acids and alkyltrifluoroborates. This versatile method is amenable to the cross-coupling of structurally diverse carboxylic acids with various potassium alkyltrifluoroborates, affording the corresponding ketones with high yields. In this operationally simple cross-coupling protocol, aliphatic ketones are obtained in one step from bench stable, readily available carboxylic acids.

Nickel-Catalyzed Conversion of Amides to Carboxylic Acids.

Project description:We report the conversion of amides to carboxylic acids using nonprecious metal catalysis. The methodology strategically employs a nickel-catalyzed esterification using 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethanol, followed by a fluoride-mediated deprotection in a single-pot operation. This approach circumvents catalyst poisoning observed in attempts to directly hydrolyze amides using nickel catalysis. The selectivity and mildness of this transformation are shown through competition experiments and the net-hydrolysis of a complex valine-derived substrate. This strategy addresses a limitation in the field with regard to functional groups accessible from amides using transition metal-catalyzed C-N bond activation and should prove useful in synthetic applications.

A simple method for enhancing the bioorthogonality of cyclooctyne reagent.

Project description:The cross-reactivity between some cyclooctynes and thiols limits the bioorthogonality of the strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. We show that a low concentration of β-mercaptoethanol significantly reduces the undesirable side reaction between bicyclononyne (BCN) and cysteine and while preserving free cysteines. We site-specifically label a genetically-encoded azido group in the visual photoreceptor rhodopsin to demonstrate the utility of the strategy.

Mild conversion of beta-diketones and beta-ketoesters to carboxylic acids.

Project description:A mild protocol for the conversion of beta-ketoesters and beta-diketones to carboxylic acids with use of CAN in CH3CN is described. The method is compatible with a number of functional groups, and can generate carboxylic acids under neutral conditions at room temperature. The reaction is fast and general, providing an alternative method to the commonly used malonic ester acid preparation. Initial mechanistic studies show that initial oxidation of the enol form of the beta-dicarbonyl initiates the reaction. The presence of nitrate as an oxidant ligand or as an additive is critical for success of the reaction.

Switchable Catalytic Polyoxometalate-Based Systems for Biomass Conversion to Carboxylic Acids.

Project description:We present the Keggin-type polyoxometalate H6[PV3Mo9O40] as a switchable catalyst being able to catalyze the transformation of both glucose and glyceraldehyde to formic acid (42%) and lactic acid (40%), respectively, within 1 h reaction time by simply changing the reaction atmosphere at 160 °C from oxygen to nitrogen in one reactor setup. In detail, we report the influence of different gas atmospheres and reaction temperatures on various vanadium-containing catalysts in the selective transformation of several biogenic substrates to carboxylic acids with a special emphasis on reaction pathways and switchability of the catalyst systems. All investigations were carried out in parallel using either an oxygen or a nitrogen atmosphere of 20 bar performing time-resolved experiments between 0.25 and 5 h and a temperature variation from 160 to 200 °C. Furthermore, a catalyst and a substrate variation led to the reaction system consisting of glyceraldehyde and the Keggin-type polyoxometalates (POM) H6[PV3Mo9O40] as the best switchable reaction system under the applied conditions. This study shows interesting potential for using both Keggin-type and Lindqvist-type POMs as switchable catalysts for selective biomass conversion to platform chemicals.

Bacterial conversion of phenylalanine and aromatic carboxylic acids into dihydrodiols.

Project description:Strain E of chloridazon-degrading bacteria, when grown on L-phenylalanine accumulates cis-2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxyphenylalanine. In experiments with resting cells and during growth the bacterium converts the aromatic carboxylic acids phenylacetate, phenylpropionate, phenylbutyrate and phenyl-lactate into the corresponding cis-2,3-dihydrodiol compounds. The amino acids L-phenylalanine, N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine and t-butyloxycarbonyl-L-phenylalanine were also transformed into dihydrodiols. All seven dihydrodiols, thus obtained, were characterized both by conventional analytical techniques and by the ability to serve as substrates for a cis-dihydrodiol dehydrogenase.

Surface Tension for Silanes, Refrigerants, and Carboxylic Acids: Simple Corresponding State Correlations versus DIPPR Data.

Project description:A simple corresponding state-based correlation, whose analytical expression contains just one term with an exponential function, is proposed to calculate the surface tension of 36 silanes, 29 carboxylic acids, and 81 refrigerants as a function of temperature. This correlation only requires critical temperature, maximum value of surface tension, and its corresponding temperature in the DIPPR database as inputs for each liquid considered. The correlation allows us to calculate the accepted DIPPR data for silanes with a mean absolute average deviation (AAD) of 2.75%, 2.42% for acids, and 3.32% for refrigerants. Moreover, it gives AADs below 3% for 99 fluids. The mean deviation for the 146 fluids is 3.0%, which is practically equal to the results obtained when two terms are used in the analytical expression.
