Stereoelectronic effects in the fragmentation of ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazocarbonyl compounds.

ABSTRACT: A series of ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazocarbonyl compounds were prepared as fragmentation substrates to probe the hypothesis that steric interactions between the diazo ester and adjacent silyloxy group can play an important role in determining the success of fragmentations. Proper stereoelectronic alignment of the diazo ester and the departing hydroxyl group is necessary for productive fragmentation to occur.

Fragmentation of bicyclic ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazolactones as an approach to ynolides.

Project description:Medium-sized ynolides were prepared by the Lewis acid-mediated fragmentation of bicyclic ?-silyloxy-?-hydroxy-?-diazolactones in which the C?-C? bond is the ring fusion bond. Although these lactone fragmentation substrates reacted somewhat less efficiently than their carbocyclic counterparts, the fragmentation provided 11-membered ynolides in up to 84% yield. Unlike prior fragmentations of similar substrates, elevated temperatures were required to obtain optimum yields of the ynolide products. The ynolides reported herein have ring sizes of 10 or 11, which are the smallest reported to date.

Rhodium-Catalyzed Geminal Oxyfluorination and Oxytrifluoro-Methylation of Diazocarbonyl Compounds.

Project description:A new reaction for the rhodium-catalyzed geminal-difunctionalization-based fluorination is presented. The substrates are aromatic and aliphatic diazocarbonyl compounds. As the fluorine source a stable and easily accessible benziodoxole reagent was used. A variety of alcohol, phenol, and carboxylic acid reagents were employed to introduce the second functionality. The reaction was extended to trifluoromethylation using a benziodoxolon reagent. The fluorination and trifluoromethylation reactions probably proceed by a rhodium-containing onium ylide type intermediate, which is trapped by either the F or CF3 electrophiles.

Trifluoromethylthiolation-arylation of diazocarbonyl compounds by modified Hooz multicomponent coupling.

Project description:A new Zn-mediated trifluoromethylthiolation-based bifunctionalization reaction is developed. In this process, simultaneous C-SCF3 and C-C bond formation takes place in a multicomponent reaction, in which an aryl and a SCF3 group arise from different reagents. Our studies show that the reaction mechanism is similar to the Hooz multicomponent coupling. The process involves in situ generation of BAr3, which reacts with a diazocarbonyl compound, and the reaction is terminated by an electrophilic SCF3 transfer. The reaction can also be extended to fluorination based bifunctionalization which proceeds with somewhat lower yield than the analogous trifluoromethylthiolation reaction.

Fragmentation of ?-hydroxy hydroperoxides.

Project description:A ?-hydroxy hydroperoxide was obtained through base-catalyzed disproportionation of a hydroperoxy endoperoxide available by singlet oxygenation of cyclohepta-1,4-diene. Vitamins E and C induce fragmentation of this ?-hydroxy hydroperoxide generating aldehydes, especially in the presence of redox active metal ions such as those present in vivo, e.g., under conditions of "iron overload". This chemistry may contribute to the oxidative cleavage of polyunsaturated fatty acyls that produces similar aldehydes, which damage proteins and DNA through covalent adduction resulting in "oxidative injury".

Aminofluorination: transition-metal-free N-F bond insertion into diazocarbonyl compounds.

Project description:Gem-aminofluorination of diazocarbonyl compounds has been achieved for the first time. This reaction proceeds under mild conditions and does not require any transition-metal promoter or catalyst. Treatment of diazoesters with N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI), which serves as both a fluorine and nitrogen source, results in the facile construction of C-N and C-F bonds, providing aminofluorination products in moderate to excellent yields. Kinetic studies and DFT calculations have provided valuable insight into the potential mechanism for this novel N-F bond insertion.

Stereoelectronic Effects Impact Glycan Recognition.

Project description:Recognition of distinct glycans is central to biology, and lectins mediate this function. Lectin glycan preferences are usually centered on specific monosaccharides. In contrast, human intelectin-1 (hItln-1, also known as Omentin-1) is a soluble lectin that binds a range of microbial sugars, including ?-d-galactofuranose (?-Galf), d-glycerol 1-phosphate, d-glycero-d-talo-oct-2-ulosonic acid (KO), and 3-deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (KDO). Though these saccharides differ dramatically in structure, they share a common feature-an exocyclic vicinal diol. How and whether such a small fragment is sufficient for recognition was unclear. We tested several glycans with this epitope and found that l-glycero-?-d-manno-heptose and d-glycero-?-d-manno-heptose possess the critical diol motif yet bind weakly. To better understand hItln-1 recognition, we determined the structure of the hItln-1·KO complex using X-ray crystallography, and our 1.59 Å resolution structure enabled unambiguous assignment of the bound KO conformation. This carbohydrate conformation was present in >97% of the KDO/KO structures in the Protein Data Bank. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that KO and KDO adopt a common conformation, while heptoses prefer different conformers. The preferred conformers of KO and KDO favor hItln-1 engagement, but those of the heptoses do not. Natural bond orbital (NBO) calculations suggest these observed conformations, including the side chain orientations, are stabilized by not only steric but also stereoelectronic effects. Thus, our data highlight a role for stereoelectronic effects in dictating the specificity of glycan recognition by proteins. Finally, our finding that hItln-1 avoids binding prevalent glycans with a terminal 1,2-diol (e.g., N-acetyl-neuraminic acid and l-glycero-?-d-manno-heptose) suggests the lectin has evolved to recognize distinct bacterial species.

Interplay of Stereoelectronic and Vibrational Modulation Effects in Tuning the UPS Spectra of Unsaturated Hydrocarbon Cage Compounds.

Project description:The UPS spectra of six hydrocarbon cage compounds have been investigated by a Green-function approach in conjunction with a full harmonic treatment of vibrational modulation effects. The remarkable agreement with experimental results points out the reliability of the proposed computational approach and the strong interplay of stereoelectronic and vibrational effects in tuning the overall spectra.

Disulfide Chromophores Arise from Stereoelectronic Effects.

Project description:Bonds between sulfur atoms are prevalent in natural products, peptides, and proteins. Disulfide bonds have a distinct chromophore. The wavelength of their maximal absorbance varies widely, from 250 to 500 nm. Here, we demonstrate that this wavelength derives from stereoelectronic effects and is predictable using quantum chemistry. We also provide a sinusoidal equation, analogous to the Karplus equation, that relates the absorbance maximum and the C-S-S-C dihedral angle. These insights provide a facile means to characterize important attributes of disulfide bonds and to design disulfides with specified photophysical properties.

Rh-catalyzed intermolecular reactions of cyclic ?-diazocarbonyl compounds with selectivity over tertiary C-H bond migration.

Project description:Intermolecular Rh-catalyzed reactions of cyclic ?-diazocarbonyl compounds with chemoselectivity over ?-hydride elimination are described. These methods represent the first general intermolecular reactions of Rh-carbenoids that are selective over tertiary ?-C-H bond migration. Successful transformations include cyclopropanation, cyclopropenation, and various X-H insertion reactions with a broad scope of substrates. We propose that the intermolecular approach of substrates to carbenes from acyclic diazo precursors may be relatively slow due to a steric interaction with the ester function, which is perpendicular to the ?-system of the carbene. For carbenes derived from five- and six-membered cyclic ?-diazocarbonyls, it is proposed that the carbene is constrained to be more conjugated with the carbonyl, thereby relieving the steric interaction for intermolecular reactions, and accelerating the rate of intermolecular reactivity relative to intramolecular ?-hydride migration. However, attempts to use ?-diazo-?-ethylcaprolactone in intermolecular cyclopropanation with styrene were unsuccessful. It is proposed that the conformational flexibility of the seven-membered ring allows the carbonyl to be oriented perpendicular to Rh-carbene. The significant intermolecular interaction between the carbonyl and approaching substrate is in agreement with the poor ability of ?-diazo-?-ethylcaprolactone to participate in intermolecular cyclopropanation reactions. DFT calculations provide support for the mechanistic proposals that are described.

Stereoelectronic effects determine oxacarbenium vs ?-sulfonium ion mediated glycosylations.

Project description:Activation of a glycosyl donor protected with a 2-O-(S)-(phenylthiomethyl)benzyl ether chiral auxiliary results in the formation of an anomeric ?-sulfonium ion, which can be displaced with sugar alcohols to give corresponding ?-glycosides. Sufficient deactivation of such glycosyl donors by electron-withdrawing protecting groups is, however, critical to avoid glycosylation of an oxacarbenium ion intermediate. The latter type of glycosylation pathway can also be suppressed by installing additional substituents in the chiral auxiliary.
