Rhodium carbenoid approach for introduction of 4-substituted (Z)-pent-2-enoates into sterically encumbered pyrroles and indoles.

ABSTRACT: An unusual rhodium carbenoid approach for introduction of 4-substituted (Z)-pent-2-enoates into sterically encumbered pyrroles and indoles is described. These studies show that (Z)-vinylcarbenoids have a greater tendency than (E)-vinylcarbenoids to react at the vinylogous position of the carbenoid rather than at the carbenoid center.

Synthesis of 1,3-cis-disubstituted sterically encumbered imidazolidinone organocatalysts.

Project description:A variety of novel imidazolidinone-based organocatalysts with bulky substituents were synthesized under mild reaction conditions starting from easily accessible substrates. Different natural and unnatural amino acid methyl amides were cyclized with aromatic carbaldehydes to yield two diastereomeric MacMillan-type catalysts. Special emphasis was put on bulky residues such as mesityl and pyrene moieties.

Nitrogen Fixation and Hydrogen Evolution by Sterically Encumbered Mo-Nitrogenase.

Project description:The substrate-reducing proteins of all nitrogenases (MoFe, VFe, and FeFe) are organized as α2ß2(γ2) multimers with two functional halves. While their dimeric organization could afford improved structural stability of nitrogenases in vivo, previous research has proposed both negative and positive cooperativity contributions with respect to enzymatic activity. Here, a 1.4 kDa peptide was covalently introduced in the proximity of the P cluster, corresponding to the Fe protein docking position. The Strep-tag carried by the added peptide simultaneously sterically inhibits electron delivery to the MoFe protein and allows the isolation of partially inhibited MoFe proteins (where the half-inhibited MoFe protein was targeted). We confirm that the partially functional MoFe protein retains its ability to reduce N2 to NH3, with no significant difference in selectivity over obligatory/parasitic H2 formation. Our experiment concludes that wild-type nitrogenase exhibits negative cooperativity during the steady state regarding H2 and NH3 formation (under Ar or N2), with one-half of the MoFe protein inhibiting turnover in the second half. This emphasizes the presence and importance of long-range (>95 Å) protein-protein communication in biological N2 fixation in Azotobacter vinelandii.

Synthesis and Characterization of a Sterically Encumbered Homoleptic Tetraalkyliron(III) Ferrate Complex.

Project description:Homoleptic iron-alkyl complexes have been implicated as key intermediates in iron-catalyzed cross-coupling with simple iron salts. Tetraalkyliron(III) ferrate species have been shown to be accessible with either methyl or benzyl ligands, where the former complex is S = 3/2 and distorted square planar while the latter is a S = 5/2 distorted tetrahedral species. In the current study, a new tetraalkyliron(III) complex is synthesized containing modified methylene substituents that incorporate large trimethylsilyl (TMS) groups to further probe steric and electronic ligand effects in tetraalkyliron(III) complexes by increasing the electron-donating ability of the ligand while retaining steric bulk. Detailed structural and DFT studies provide insight into electronic structure and bonding of the four-coordinate trimethylsilylmethyl iron(III) complex compared to the previously reported analogs containing methyl and benzyl ligands.

Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of N-vinyl pyrroles and indoles.

Project description:A stereospecific palladium-catalyzed N-vinylation of azaheterocycles with vinyl triflates is described. Cyclic and acyclic vinyl triflates along with nonnucleophilic azaheterocycles were found to be substrates for this palladium-catalyzed synthesis of N-vinyl pyrrole and indole derivatives.

Carbon Atom Insertion into Pyrroles and Indoles Promoted by Chlorodiazirines.

Project description:Herein, we report a reaction that selectively generates 3-arylpyridine and quinoline motifs by inserting aryl carbynyl cation equivalents into pyrrole and indole cores, respectively. By employing α-chlorodiazirines as thermal precursors to the corresponding chlorocarbenes, the traditional haloform-based protocol central to the parent Ciamician-Dennstedt rearrangement can be modified to directly afford 3-(hetero)arylpyridines and quinolines. Chlorodiazirines are conveniently prepared in a single step by oxidation of commercially available amidinium salts. Selectivity as a function of pyrrole substitution pattern was examined, and a predictive model based on steric effects is put forward, with DFT calculations supporting a selectivity-determining cyclopropanation step. Computations surprisingly indicate that the stereochemistry of cyclopropanation is of little consequence to the subsequent electrocyclic ring opening that forges the pyridine core, due to a compensatory homoaromatic stabilization that counterbalances orbital-controlled torquoselectivity effects. The utility of this skeletal transform is further demonstrated through the preparation of quinolinophanes and the skeletal editing of pharmaceutically relevant pyrroles.

Mononuclear, Nonheme, High-Spin {FeNO}7/8 Complexes Supported by a Sterically Encumbered N4S-Thioether Ligand.

Project description:The synthesis of a new nonheme iron NO binding complex, [FeII(CH3CN)(N3Py2PhSEtCN)](BF4)2 (1), is reported. Complex 1, which contains two sterically encumbering phenyl substituents, exhibits a high-spin (hs) FeII (S = 2) ground state in contrast to the S = 0 ground state for unsubstituted [FeII(CH3CN)(N3PySEtCN)(BF4)2. Reaction of 1 with NO(g) in CH3CN yields an {FeNO}7 (S = 3/2) complex 2, which slowly decays at 25 °C with loss of NO• to regenerate 1. One-electron reduction of 2 with Cr(C6H6)2 at -40 °C yields the metastable, S = 1?{FeNO}8 complex 3. The nitrosyl moieties in thioether-ligated 2 and 3 are significantly less activated than in thiolate-ligated [Fe(NO)(N3PyS)]+/0, a structurally analogous pair of hs {FeNO}7/8 complexes. Calculations reveal that reduction of 2 is iron-centered, which may be a general property of hs {FeNO}7/8 complexes.

Copper-catalyzed synthesis of allenylboronic acids. Access to sterically encumbered homopropargylic alcohols and amines by propargylboration.

Project description:Tri- and tetrasubstituted allenylboronic acids were prepared via a new versatile copper-catalyzed methodology. The densely functionalized allenylboronic acids readily undergo propargylboration reactions with ketones and imines without any additives. Catalytic asymmetric propargylborylation of ketones is demonstrated with high stereoselectivity allowing for the synthesis of highly enantioenriched tertiary homopropargyl alcohols. The reaction is suitable for kinetic resolution of racemic allenylboronic acids affording alkynes with adjacent quaternary stereocenters.

Rhodium-catalyzed, P-directed selective C7 arylation of indoles.

Project description:The indole scaffold will continue to play a vital role in the future of drug discovery and agrochemical development. Regioselective direct arylation of indoles on the benzenoid moiety is a challenging task due to the inherent reactivity of the C2 and C3 positions. Here, we have developed an effective strategy for the regioselective direct arylation of indoles at the C7 position with (hetero)aryl bromides by the rational design of a directing group. The key to the high selectivity and reactivity of this method is the appropriate selection of a class of directing groups, N-PR2 (R = t Bu and c Hex), that are easily removed in the presence of the Wilkinson's catalyst. Using the present method as a key step, formal synthesis of marine alkaloid dictyodendrin B has also been demonstrated.

Rhodium(II)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H functionalization of indoles.

Project description:A catalytic, enantioselective method for the C-H functionalization of indoles by diazo compounds has been achieved. With catalytic amounts of Rh(2)(S-NTTL)(4), the putative Rh-carbene intermediates from α-alkyl-α-diazoesters react with indoles at C(3) to provide α-alkyl-α-indolylacetates in high yield and enantioselectivity. From DFT calculations, a mechanism is proposed that involves a Rh-ylide intermediate with oxocarbenium character.
