Radical cation Diels-Alder cycloadditions by visible light photocatalysis.

ABSTRACT: Ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes promote the efficient radical cation Diels-Alder cycloaddition of electron-rich dienophiles upon irradiation with visible light. These reactions enable facile [4 + 2] cycloadditions that would be electronically mismatched under thermal conditions. Key to the success of this methodology is the availability of ligand-modified ruthenium complexes that enable rational tuning of the electrochemical properties of the catalyst without significantly perturbing the overall photophysical properties of the system.

Visible light photocatalysis of intramolecular radical cation Diels-Alder cycloadditions.

Project description:Intramolecular radical cation Diels-Alder reactions can be conducted under photocatalytic conditions using visible light irradiation. The photocatalyst system involves the use of a Ru(bpy)(3) (2+) chromophore and methyl viologen as a co-oxidant. These reactions enable the cycloaddition of substrates whose thermal Diels-Alder cycloadditions are electronically mismatched and thus require forcing conditions. Nevertheless, the radical cation cycloadditions can be conducted on gram scale using ambient sunlight as the only source of irradiation.

[2+2] cycloadditions by oxidative visible light photocatalysis.

Project description:Photochemical reactions are remarkable for their ability to easily assemble cyclobutanes and other strained ring systems that are difficult to construct using other conventional synthetic methods. We have previously shown that Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) is an efficient photocatalyst that promotes the [2+2] cycloadditions of electron-deficient olefins with visible light. Here, we show that Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) is also an effective photocatalyst for the [2+2] cycloaddition of electron-rich olefins. This transformation is enabled by the versatile photoelectrochemical properties of Ru(bpy)(3)(2+), which enables either one-electron reduction or one-electron oxidation of interesting organic substrates under appropriate conditions.

Stepwise radical cation Diels-Alder reaction via multiple pathways.

Project description:Herein we disclose the radical cation Diels-Alder reaction of aryl vinyl ethers by electrocatalysis, which is triggered by an oxidative SET process. The reaction clearly proceeds in a stepwise fashion, which is a rare mechanism in this class. We also found that two distinctive pathways, including "direct" and "indirect", are possible to construct the Diels-Alder adduct.

Investigating radical cation chain processes in the electrocatalytic Diels-Alder reaction.

Project description:Single electron transfer (SET)-triggered radical ion-based reactions have proven to be powerful options in synthetic organic chemistry. Although unique chain processes have been proposed in various photo- and electrochemical radical ion-based transformations, the turnover number, also referred to as catalytic efficiency, remains unclear in most cases. Herein, we disclose our investigations of radical cation chain processes in the electrocatalytic Diels-Alder reaction, leading to a scalable synthesis. A gram-scale synthesis was achieved with high current efficiency of up to 8000%. The reaction monitoring profiles showed sigmoidal curves with induction periods, suggesting the involvement of intermediate(s) in the rate determining step.

[3+2] cycloadditions of aryl cyclopropyl ketones by visible light photocatalysis.

Project description:We report a new method for the formal [3+2] reaction of aryl cyclopropyl ketones with olefins to generate highly substituted cyclopentane ring systems. The key initiation step in this process is the one-electron reduction of the ketone to the corresponding radical anion, which is accomplished using a photocatalytic system comprising Ru(bpy)(3)(2+), La(OTf)(3), and TMEDA.

Crossed intermolecular [2+2] cycloadditions of acyclic enones via visible light photocatalysis.

Project description:Efficient [2+2] heterodimerizations of dissimilar acyclic enones can be accomplished upon visible light irradiation in the presence of a ruthenium(II) photocatalyst. Similar cycloadditions under standard UV photolysis conditions are inefficient and unselective. Nevertheless, a diverse range of unsymmetrical tri- and tetrasubstituted cyclobutane structures can be produced in good yields and excellent diastereoselectivities using this new method. The reaction is promoted by any visible light source, and efficient, gram-scale cycloadditions can be conducted upon irradiating with ambient sunlight.

Diels-Alder cycloadditions of strained azacyclic allenes.

Project description:For over a century, the structures and reactivities of strained organic compounds have captivated the chemical community. Whereas triple-bond-containing strained intermediates have been well studied, cyclic allenes have received far less attention. Additionally, studies of cyclic allenes that bear heteroatoms in the ring are scarce. We report an experimental and computational study of azacyclic allenes, which features syntheses of stable allene precursors, the mild generation and Diels-Alder trapping of the desired cyclic allenes, and explanations of the observed regio- and diastereoselectivities. Furthermore, we show that stereochemical information can be transferred from an enantioenriched silyl triflate starting material to a Diels-Alder cycloadduct by way of a stereochemically defined azacyclic allene intermediate. These studies demonstrate that heteroatom-containing cyclic allenes, despite previously being overlooked as valuable synthetic intermediates, may be harnessed for the construction of complex molecular scaffolds bearing multiple stereogenic centres.

Versatile Peptide Macrocyclization with Diels-Alder Cycloadditions.

Project description:Macrocyclization can improve bioactive peptide ligands through preorganization of molecular topology, leading to improvement of pharmacologic properties like binding affinity, cell permeability, and metabolic stability. Here we demonstrate that Diels-Alder [4 + 2] cycloadditions can be harnessed for peptide macrocyclization and stabilization within a range of peptide scaffolds and chemical environments. Diels-Alder cyclization of diverse diene-dienophile reactive pairs proceeds rapidly, in high yield and with tunable stereochemical preferences on solid-phase or in aqueous solution. This reaction can be applied alone or in concert with other stabilization chemistries, such as ring-closing olefin metathesis, to stabilize loop, turn, and ?-helical secondary structural motifs. NMR and molecular dynamics studies of model loop peptides confirmed preferential formation of endo cycloadduct stereochemistry, imparting significant structural rigidity to the peptide backbone that resulted in augmented protease resistance and increased biological activity of a Diels-Alder cyclized (DAC) RGD peptide. Separately, we demonstrated the stabilization of DAC ?-helical peptides derived from the ER?-binding protein SRC2. We solved a 2.25 Å cocrystal structure of one DAC helical peptide bound to ER?, which unequivocally corroborated endo stereochemistry of the resulting Diels-Alder adduct, and confirmed that the unique architecture of stabilizing motifs formed with this chemistry can directly contribute to target binding. These data establish Diels-Alder cyclization as a versatile approach to stabilize diverse protein structural motifs under a range of chemical environments.

Enantioselective counter-anions in photoredox catalysis: the asymmetric cation radical Diels-Alder reaction.

Project description:Control of absolute stereochemistry in radical and ion radical transformations is a major challenge in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we report the design of a photoredox catalyst system comprised of an oxidizing pyrilium salt bearing a chiral N-triflyl phosphoramide anion. This class of chiral organic photoredox catalysts is able to catalyze the formation of cation radical-mediated Diels-Alder transformations in up to 75:25 e.r. in both intramolecular and intermolecular examples.

Microwave-based reaction screening: tandem retro-Diels-Alder/Diels-Alder cycloadditions of o-quinol dimers.

Project description:We have accomplished a parallel screen of cycloaddition partners for o-quinols utilizing a plate-based microwave system. Microwave irradiation improves the efficiency of retro-Diels-Alder/Diels-Alder cascades of o-quinol dimers which generally proceed in a diastereoselective fashion. Computational studies indicate that asynchronous transition states are favored in Diels-Alder cycloadditions of o-quinols. Subsequent biological evaluation of a collection of cycloadducts has identified an inhibitor of activator protein-1 (AP-1), an oncogenic transcription factor.
