Highly efficient diastereoselective reduction of alpha-fluoroimines.

ABSTRACT: A highly selective reduction of alpha-fluoroimines to the corresponding beta-fluoroamines has been developed utilizing trichlorosilane as the reductant. The key aspect of this reaction is the ability of fluorine and nitrogen to activate organosilanes leading to high diastereoselectivity (>100:1) in the product distribution. This new method provides a new avenue for the diastereoselective synthesis of beta-fluorinated amines in good yields and selectivity.

Generating Stereodiversity: Diastereoselective Fluorination and Highly Diastereoselective Epimerization of α-Amino Acid Building Blocks.

Project description:Diastereoselective fluorination of N-Boc ( R)- and ( S)-2,2-dimethyl-4-((arylsulfonyl)methyl)oxazolidines and a previously unknown diastereoselective epimerization at the fluorine-bearing carbon atom α to the sulfone was realized. Diastereoselectivities of both reactions were excellent for benzothiazolyl sulfones, allowing access to two enantiomerically pure diastereomers from one chiral precursor. To demonstrate synthetic utility, the benzothiazolyl sulfones were converted to diastereomerically pure ( S, S)- and ( R, S)-benzyl sulfones via sulfinate salts and to amino acids. To understand the diastereoselectivities, DFT analysis was performed.

Highly diastereoselective chelation-controlled additions to α-silyloxy ketones.

Project description:The polar Felkin-Anh, Cornforth-Evans, and Cram-chelation models predict that the addition of organometallic reagents to silyl-protected α-hydroxy ketones proceeds via a nonchelation pathway to give anti-diol addition products. This prediction has held true for the vast majority of additions reported in the literature, and few methods for chelation-controlled additions of organometallic reagents to silyl-protected α-hydroxy ketones have been introduced. Herein, we present a general and highly diastereoselective method for the addition of dialkylzincs and (E)-di-, (E)-tri-, and (Z)-disubstituted vinylzinc reagents to α-silyloxy ketones using alkyl zinc halide Lewis acids, RZnX, to give chelation-controlled products (dr ≥18:1). The compatibility of organozinc reagents with other functional groups makes this method potentially very useful in complex molecule synthesis.

MOF-808 as a Highly Active Catalyst for the Diastereoselective Reduction of Substituted Cyclohexanones.

Project description:Zr-containing MOF-808 is an excellent heterogeneous catalyst for the diastereoselective Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction of substituted cyclohexanones. The presence of substituents at the 2 or 3 position of the cyclohexanone ring strongly drives the reaction towards the formation of one of the two possible isomers. For 3-methyl cyclohexanone, the available space inside the MOF pores allows the formation of the bulkier transition state leading to the thermodynamically stable 3-cis-cyclohexanol. For 2-methyl cyclohexanone, the reaction rate is much slower and the final diastereoselectivity depends on the size of the alcohol used. Finally, reduction of 2-phenyl cyclohexanone is considerable faster over MOF-808 than for any other catalyst reported so far. The large size of the phenyl favors the selective formation (up to 94% selectivity) of the cis-alcohol, which goes through a less hindered transition state.

Highly diastereoselective approach toward (+/-)-tetraponerine T6 and analogues via the double cycloisomerization-reduction of bis-alkynylpyrimidines.

Project description:A new, short, and efficient approach toward tricyclic alkaloids, involving the double cycloisomerization-reduction of bis-alkynylpyrimidines 3a-m, has been developed. The requisite bis-alkynylpyrimidines 3a-m were readily prepared via regioselective sequential Sonogashira coupling reactions of dibromopyrimidines 1. Bis-alkynylpyrimidines 3a-m were converted into the 5-6-5 tricyclic heteroaromatic cores 4a-m via the Cu(I)-assisted double cycloisomerization reaction. The reaction proceeded stepwise, which was confirmed by the isolation of the mono-pyrrolization intermediate 5. The structure of 5 was assigned by 2D NMR and by independent synthesis. Cycloisomerization of 5 under standard conditions afforded tricyclic 4g in 89% yield. The PtO2-catalyzed hydrogenation of bis-pyrrolopyrimidines 4d, 4g, and 4i in acidic media afforded stable amidinium derivatives, 11a, 11b, and 11c. Further reduction of the latter with LiAlH4 allowed for the highly diastereoselective total synthesis of (+/-)-tetraponerine T6 and its analogues.

Highly Diastereoselective Functionalization of Piperidines by Photoredox-Catalyzed α-Amino C-H Arylation and Epimerization.

Project description:We report a photoredox-catalyzed α-amino C-H arylation reaction of highly substituted piperidine derivatives with electron-deficient cyano(hetero)arenes. The scope and limitations of the reaction were explored, with piperidines bearing multiple substitution patterns providing the arylated products in good yields and with high diastereoselectivity. To probe the mechanism of the overall transformation, optical and fluorescent spectroscopic methods were used to investigate the reaction. By employing flash-quench transient absorption spectroscopy, we were able to observe electron transfer processes associated with radical formation beyond the initial excited-state Ir(ppy)3 oxidation. Following the rapid and unselective C-H arylation reaction, a slower epimerization occurs to provide the high diastereomer ratio observed for a majority of the products. Several stereoisomerically pure products were resubjected to the reaction conditions, each of which converged to the experimentally observed diastereomer ratios. The observed distribution of diastereomers corresponds to a thermodynamic ratio of isomers based upon their calculated relative energies using density functional theory (DFT).

Highly efficient oxygen reduction electrocatalysts based on winged carbon nanotubes.

Project description:Developing electrocatalysts with both high selectivity and efficiency for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is critical for several applications including fuel cells and metal-air batteries. In this work we developed high performance electrocatalysts based on unique winged carbon nanotubes. We found that the outer-walls of a special type of carbon nanotubes/nanofibers, when selectively oxidized, unzipped and exfoliated, form graphene wings strongly attached to the inner tubes. After doping with nitrogen, the winged nanotubes exhibited outstanding activity toward catalyzing the ORR through the four-electron pathway with excellent stability and methanol/carbon monoxide tolerance. While the doped graphene wings with high active site density bring remarkable catalytic activity, the inner tubes remain intact and conductive to facilitate electron transport during electrocatalysis.

Overriding Felkin control: a general method for highly diastereoselective chelation-controlled additions to alpha-silyloxy aldehydes.

Project description:According to the Felkin-Anh and Cram-chelation models, nucleophilic additions to alpha-silyloxy aldehydes proceed through a nonchelation pathway due to the steric and electronic properties of the silyl group, giving rise to Felkin addition products. Herein we describe a general method to promote chelation-control in additions to alpha-silyloxy aldehydes. Dialkylzincs, functionalized dialkylzincs, and (E)-disubstituted, (E)-trisubstituted, and (Z)-disubstituted vinylzinc reagents add to silyl-protected alpha-hydroxy aldehydes with high selectivity for chelation-controlled products (dr of 10:1 to >20:1) in the presence of alkylzinc halides or triflates, RZnX. With the high functional group tolerance of organozinc reagents, the mild Lewis acidity of RZnX, and the excellent diastereoselectivities favoring the chelation-controlled products, this method will be useful in the synthesis of natural products. A mechanism involving chelation is supported by (1) NMR studies of a model substrate, (2) a dramatic increase in reaction rate in the presence of an alkylzinc halide, and (3) higher diastereoselectivity with larger alkyl substituents on the alpha-carbon of the aldehyde. This method provides access to chelation-controlled addition products with high diastereoselectivity previously unavailable using achiral organometallic reagents.

A highly diastereoselective "super silyl" governed aldol reaction: synthesis of α,β-dioxyaldehydes and 1,2,3-triols.

Project description:A highly diastereoselective approach for the synthesis of protected α,β-dioxyaldehydes derived from (Z)-tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl "super silyl" enol ethers is described. A general and highly syn-stereoselective aldol reaction directed by the "super silyl" group catalyzed by triflimide (HNTf2) is developed providing α,β-dioxyaldehydes and 1,2,3-triol fragments which can be a useful platform for the elaboration of natural and unnatural sugar derivatives.
