Synthesis of sulfur-containing heterocycles through oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization.

ABSTRACT: Vinyl sulfides react rapidly and efficiently with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to form ?,?-unsaturated thiocarbenium ions through oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage. These electrophiles couple with appended ?-nucleophiles to yield sulfur-containing heterocycles through carbon-carbon bond formation. Several nucleophiles are compatible with the procedure, and the reactions generally proceed through readily predictable transition states.

Vinyl sulfides react rapidly and efficiently with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to form α,β-unsaturated thiocarbenium ions through oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage. These electrophiles couple with appended π-nucleophiles to yield sulfur-containing heterocycles through carbon-carbon bond formation. Several nucleophiles are compatible with the procedure, and the reactions generally proceed through readily predictable transition states. ...[more]

Stereoselective synthesis of sulfur-containing ?-enaminonitrile derivatives through electrochemical Csp<sup>3</sup>-H bond oxidative functionalization of acetonitrile.

Project description:Incorporation of nitrile groups into fine chemicals is of particular interest through C(sp3)-H bonds activation of alkyl nitriles in the synthetic chemistry due to the highly efficient atom economy. However, the direct ?-functionalization of alkyl nitriles is usually limited to its enolate chemistry. Here we report an electro-oxidative C(sp3)-H bond functionalization of acetonitrile with aromatic/aliphatic mercaptans for the synthesis of sulfur-containing ?-enaminonitrile derivatives. These tetrasubstituted olefin products are stereoselectively synthesized and the stereoselectivity is enhanced in the presence of a phosphine oxide catalyst. With iodide as a redox catalyst, activation of C(sp3)-H bond to produce cyanomethyl radicals proceeds smoothly at a decreased anodic potential, and thus highly chemoselective formation of C-S bonds and enamines is achieved. Importantly, the process is carried out at ambient temperature and can be easily scaled up.

Spiroacetal formation through telescoped cycloaddition and carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization: total synthesis of bistramide?A.

Project description:Spiroacetals can be formed through a one-pot sequence of a hetero-Diels-Alder reaction, an oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage, and an acid treatment. This convergent approach expedites access to a complex molecular subunit which is present in numerous biologically active structures. The utility of the protocol is demonstrated through its application to a brief synthesis of the actin-binding cytotoxin bistramide?A.

Practical and innate carbon-hydrogen functionalization of heterocycles.

Project description:Nitrogen-rich heterocyclic compounds have had a profound effect on human health because these chemical motifs are found in a large number of drugs used to combat a broad range of diseases and pathophysiological conditions. Advances in transition-metal-mediated cross-coupling have simplified the synthesis of such molecules; however, C-H functionalization of medicinally important heterocycles that does not rely on pre-functionalized starting materials is an underdeveloped area. Unfortunately, the innate properties of heterocycles that make them so desirable for biological applications--such as aqueous solubility and their ability to act as ligands--render them challenging substrates for direct chemical functionalization. Here we report that zinc sulphinate salts can be used to transfer alkyl radicals to heterocycles, allowing for the mild (moderate temperature, 50?°C or less), direct and operationally simple formation of medicinally relevant C-C bonds while reacting in a complementary fashion to other innate C-H functionalization methods (Minisci, borono-Minisci, electrophilic aromatic substitution, transition-metal-mediated C-H insertion and C-H deprotonation). We prepared a toolkit of these reagents and studied their reactivity across a wide range of heterocycles (natural products, drugs and building blocks) without recourse to protecting-group chemistry. The reagents can even be used in tandem fashion in a single pot in the presence of water and air.

Carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization approach for the synthesis of fluorenones and ortho-arylated benzonitriles.

Project description:A sequence consisting of palladium-catalyzed benzamide ortho-arylation/reaction with (CF3CO)2O was developed allowing a convenient one-pot synthesis of ortho-arylated benzonitriles and fluorenone derivatives. The outcome of this transformation is dependent on the amide N-alkyl substituent. Dehydration of ortho-arylated N-cyclohexyl-benzamides by (CF3CO)2O results in efficient production of benzonitriles. In contrast, o-arylated N-propylbenzamides are converted to fluorenone derivatives.

Anion receptors containing thiazine-1,1-dioxide heterocycles as hydrogen bond donors.

Project description:The synthesis, X-ray crystal structures and anion recognition properties of two receptors containing thiazine-1,1-dioxide heterocycles as hydrogen bond donating subunits are reported. The newly synthesized receptors display much different anion selectivities in acetone-d? than N,N'-diphenyl-1,3-disulfonamidobenzene that was used as a comparison. The selectivity exhibited by one of the new receptors for chloride anions can be attributed to greater steric demand in the cleft formed, in part, by its terminal phenyl rings; an effect that is absent in the comparison receptor.

Synthesis, Reactivity, Functionalization, and ADMET Properties of Silicon-Containing Nitrogen Heterocycles.

Project description:Silicon-containing compounds have been largely ignored in drug design and development, despite their potential to improve not only the potency but also the physicochemical and ADMET ( absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity) properties of drug-like candidates because of the unique characteristics of silicon. This deficiency is in large part attributable to a lack of general methods for synthesizing diverse organosilicon structures. Accordingly, a new building block strategy has been developed that diverges from traditional approaches to incorporation of silicon into drug candidates. Flexible, multi-gram-scale syntheses of silicon-containing tetrahydroquinoline and tetrahydroisoquinoline building blocks are described, along with methods by which diversely functionalized silicon-containing nitrogen heterocycles can be rapidly built using common reactions optimized to accommodate the properties of silicon. Furthermore, to better clarify the liabilities and advantages of silicon incorporation, select compounds and their carbon analogues were challenged in ADMET-focused biological studies.

Aromatic cations from oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage in bimolecular carbon-carbon bond forming reactions.

Project description:Chromenes and isochromenes react quickly with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to form persistent aromatic oxocarbenium ions through oxidative carbon-hydrogen cleavage. This process is tolerant of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups on the benzene ring and additional substitution on the pyran ring. A variety of nucleophiles can be added to these cations to generate a diverse set of structures.

Biocatalytic Carbon-Hydrogen and Carbon-Fluorine Bond Cleavage through Hydroxylation Promoted by a Histidyl-Ligated Heme Enzyme.

Project description:LmbB2 is a peroxygenase-like enzyme that hydroxylates L-tyrosine to L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. However, its heme cofactor is ligated by a proximal histidine, not cysteine. We show that LmbB2 can oxidize L-tyrosine analogs with ring-deactivated substituents such as 3-nitro-, fluoro-, chloro-, iodo-L-tyrosine. We also found that the 4-hydroxyl group of the substrate is essential for reacting with the heme-based oxidant and activating the aromatic C-H bond. The most interesting observation of this study was obtained with 3-fluoro-L-tyrosine as a substrate and mechanistic probe. The LmbB2-mediated catalytic reaction yielded two hydroxylated products with comparable populations, i.e., oxidative C-H bond cleavage at C5 to generate 3-fluoro-5-hydroxyl-L-tyrosine and oxygenation at C3 concomitant with a carbon-fluorine bond cleavage to yield DOPA and fluoride. An iron protein-mediated hydroxylation on both C-H and C-F bonds with multiple turnovers is unprecedented. Thus, this finding reveals a significant potential of biocatalysis in C-H/C-X bond (X = halogen) cleavage. Further 18O-labeling results suggest that the source of oxygen for hydroxylation is a peroxide, and that a commonly expected oxidation by a high-valent iron intermediate followed by hydrolysis is not supported for the C-F bond cleavage. Instead, the C-F bond cleavage is proposed to be initiated by a nucleophilic aromatic substitution mediated by the iron-hydroperoxo species. Based on the experimental results, two mechanisms are proposed to explain how LmbB2 hydroxylates the substrate and cleaves C-H/C-F bond. This study broadens the understanding of heme enzyme catalysis and sheds light on enzymatic applications in medicinal and environmental fields.

Palladium(ii)-catalyzed synthesis of dibenzothiophene derivatives <i>via</i> the cleavage of carbon-sulfur and carbon-hydrogen bonds.

Project description:A new process has been developed for the palladium(ii)-catalyzed synthesis of dibenzothiophene derivatives via the cleavage of C-H and C-S bonds. In contrast to the existing methods for the synthesis of this scaffold by C-H functionalization, this new catalytic C-H/C-S coupling method does not require the presence of an external stoichiometric oxidant or reactive functionalities such as C-X or S-H, allowing its application to the synthesis of elaborate ?-systems. Notably, the product-forming step of this reaction lies in an oxidative addition step rather than a reductive elimination step, making this reaction mechanistically uncommon.
