A combined DFT and NMR investigation of the zinc organometallic intermediate proposed in the syn-selective tandem chain extension-aldol reaction of ?-keto esters.

ABSTRACT: The tandem chain extension-aldol (TCA) reaction of ?-keto esters provides an ?-substituted ?-keto ester with an average syn:anti selectivity of 10:1. It is proposed that the reaction proceeds via a carbon-zinc bound organometallic intermediate potentially bearing mechanistic similarity to the Reformatsky reaction. Evidence, derived from control Reformatsky reactions and a study of the structure of the TCA intermediate utilizing DFT methods and NMR spectroscopy, suggests the ?-keto group of the TCA intermediate plays a significant role in diastereoselectivity observed in this reaction. Such coordination effects have design implications for future zinc mediated reactions.

Syn-selective silicon Mukaiyama-type aldol reactions of (pentafluoro-?6-sulfanyl)acetic acid esters with aldehydes.

Project description:Aldol reactions belong to the most frequently used C-C bond forming transformations utilized particularly for the construction of complex structures. The selectivity of these reactions depends on the geometry of the intermediate enolates. Here, we have reacted octyl pentafluoro-?6-sulfanylacetate with substituted benzaldehydes and acetaldehyde under the conditions of the silicon-mediated Mukaiyama aldol reaction. The transformations proceeded with high diastereoselectivity. In case of benzaldehydes with electron-withdrawing substituents in the para-position, syn-?-SF5-?-hydroxyalkanoic acid esters were produced. The reaction was also successful with meta-substituted benzaldehydes and o-fluorobenzaldehyde. In contrast, p-methyl-, p-methoxy-, and p-ethoxybenzaldehydes led selectively to aldol condensation products with (E)-configured double bonds in 30-40% yields. In preliminary experiments with an SF5-substituted acetic acid morpholide and p-nitrobenzaldehyde, a low amount of an aldol product was formed under similar conditions.

A convenient enantioselective decarboxylative aldol reaction to access chiral α-hydroxy esters using β-keto acids.

Project description:We show a convenient decarboxylative aldol process using a scandium catalyst and a PYBOX ligand to generate a series of highly functionalized chiral α-hydroxy esters. The protocol tolerates a broad range of β-keto acids with inactivated aromatic and aliphatic α-keto esters. The possible mechanism is rationalized.

Tandem Chain Extension-Iodomethylation Reactions: Formation of alpha-Functionalized gamma-Keto Carbonyls.

Project description:Sequential exposure of a zinc-organometallic intermediate, generated through a zinc carbenoid-mediated chain extension reaction of a beta-keto carbonyl, to trimethylsilylchloride and iodine provided regioselective formation of an alpha-iodomethyl-gamma-keto carbonyl. The iodomethyl functionality can be further manipulated to provide side chains that are potential mimics of alpha-amino acid side chains.

Enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of syn-?-hydroxy-?-vinyl carboxylic esters via reductive aldol reactions of ethyl allenecarboxylate with 10-TMS-9-Borabicyclo[3.3.2]decane and DFT analysis of the hydroboration pathway.

Project description:An enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of syn-?-hydroxy-?-vinyl carboxylate esters 3 via the reductive aldol reaction of ethyl allenecarboxylate (2) with 10-trimethylsilyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.2]decane (1R) has been developed. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the allene hydroboration involves the 1,4-reduction of 2 with the 1R, leading directly to dienolborinate Z-(O)-8a.

The tandem chain extension aldol reaction used for synthesis of ketomethylene tripeptidomimetics targeting hPEPT1.

Project description:The rationale for targeting the human di-/tripeptide transporter hPEPT1 for oral drug delivery has been well established by several drug and prodrug cases. The aim of this study was to synthesize novel ketomethylene modified tripeptidomimetics and to investigate their binding affinity for hPEPT1. Three related tripeptidomimetics of the structure H-Phe-?[COCH(2)]-Ser(Bz)-X(aa)-OH were synthesized applying the tandem chain extension aldol reaction, where amino acid derived ?-keto imides were stereoselectively converted to ?-substituted ?-keto imides. In addition, three corresponding tripeptides, composed of amide bonds, were synthesized for comparison of binding affinities. The six investigated compounds were all defined as high affinity ligands (K(i)-values <0.5 mM) for hPEPT1 by measuring the concentration dependent inhibition of apical [(14)C]Gly-Sar uptake in Caco-2 cells. Consequently, the ketomethylene replacement for the natural amide bond and ?-side chain modifications appears to offer a promising strategy to modify tripeptidic structures while maintaining a high affinity for hPEPT1.

Palladium-Catalyzed ?-Arylation of ?-Keto Esters.

Project description:A catalyst system derived from commercially available Pd2(dba)3 and PtBu3 has been applied to the coupling of ?-keto ester enolates and aryl bromides. The reaction provides access to an array of ?-stereogenic ?-keto esters. When the air-stable ligand precursor PtBu3·HBF4 is employed, the reaction can be carried out without use of a glovebox. The derived products are of broad interest given the prevalence of the ?-keto acid substructure in biologically important molecules.

Stereoselective Bioreduction of ?-diazo-?-keto Esters.

Project description:Diazo compounds are versatile reagents in chemical synthesis and biology due to the tunable reactivity of the diazo functionality and its compatibility with living systems. Much effort has been made in recent years to explore their accessibility and synthetic potential; however, their preparation through stereoselective enzymatic asymmetric synthesis has been scarcely reported in the literature. Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs, also called ketoreductases, KREDs) are powerful redox enzymes able to reduce carbonyl compounds in a highly stereoselective manner. Herein, we have developed the synthesis and subsequent bioreduction of nine ?-diazo-?-keto esters to give optically active ?-diazo-?-hydroxy esters with potential applications as chiral building blocks in chemical synthesis. Therefore, the syntheses of prochiral ?-diazo-?-keto esters bearing different substitution patterns at the adjacent position of the ketone group (N3CH2, ClCH2, BrCH2, CH3OCH2, NCSCH2, CH3, and Ph) and in the alkoxy portion of the ester functionality (Me, Et, and Bn), were carried out through the diazo transfer reaction to the corresponding ?-keto esters in good to excellent yields (81-96%). After performing the chemical reduction of ?-diazo-?-keto esters with sodium borohydride and developing robust analytical conditions to monitor the biotransformations, their bioreductions were exhaustively studied using in-house made Escherichia coli overexpressed and commercially available KREDs. Remarkably, the corresponding ?-diazo-?-hydroxy esters were obtained in moderate to excellent conversions (60 to >99%) and high selectivities (85 to >99% ee) after 24 h at 30 °C. The best biotransformations in terms of conversion and enantiomeric excess were successfully scaled up to give the expected chiral alcohols with almost the same activity and selectivity values observed in the enzyme screening experiments.

Diastereoselective synthesis of tetrahydrofurans via mead reductive cyclization of keto-beta-lactones derived from the tandem Mukaiyama aldol lactonization (TMAL) process.

Project description:The development of a diastereoselective, three-step strategy for the construction of substituted tetrahydrofurans from alkenyl aldehydes based on the tandem Mukaiyama aldol-lactonization process and Mead reductive cyclization of keto beta-lactones is reported. Stereochemical outcomes of the TMAL process are consistent with models established for Lewis acid-mediated additions to alpha-benzyloxy and beta-silyloxy aldehydes while reductions of the five-membered oxocarbenium ions are consistent with Woerpel's models. Further rationalization for observed high diastereoselectivity in reductions of alpha-silyloxy 5-membered oxocarbenium ions based on stereoelectronic effects are posited. A diagnostic trend for coupling constants of gamma-benzyloxy beta-lactones was observed that should enable assignment of the relative configuration of these systems.

Photorelease of Pyridyl Esters in Organometallic Ru(II) Arene Complexes.

Project description:New Ru(II) arene complexes of formula [(?6-p-cym)Ru(N-N)(X)]2+ (where p-cym = para-cymene, N-N = 2,2'-bipyrimidine (bpm) or 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) and X = m/p-COOMe-Py, 1-4) were synthesised and characterized, including the molecular structure of complexes [(?6-p-cym)Ru(bpy)(m-COOMe-Py)]2+ (3) and [(?6-p-cym)Ru(bpy) (p-COOMe-Py)]2+ (4) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1-4 are stable in the dark in aqueous solution over 48 h and photolysis studies indicate that they can photodissociate the monodentate m/p-COOMe-Py ligands selectively with yields lower than 1%. DFT and TD-DFT calculations (B3LYP/LanL2DZ/6-31G**) performed on singlet and triplet states pinpoint a low-energy triplet state as the reactive state responsible for the selective dissociation of the monodentate pyridyl ligands.
