Expedient synthesis of ?-substituted fluoroethenes.

ABSTRACT: A mild and efficient synthesis of 1-aryl-1-fluoroethenes from benzothiazolyl (aryl)fluoromethyl sulfones and paraformaldehyde, under DBU- or Cs(2)CO(3)-mediated conditions at room temperature, is described. A comparable diethyl fluoro(naphthalen-2-yl)methylphosphonate reagent does not react with paraformaldehyde under these mild conditions. The utility of the methodology for synthesis of terminal ?-fluoroalkenes bearing electron-withdrawing functionalities is also shown.

Expedient Organocatalytic Syntheses of 4-Substituted Pyrazolidines and Isoxazolidines.

Project description:The efficient organocatalytic synthesis of heterocyclic systems of biological relevance is a subject of growing interest. We have found that the pyrrolidine/benzoic acid-catalyzed reaction of ?-substituted propenals such as methacrolein, 2-benzylpropenal and 2-(n-hexyl)propenal with activated hydrazines takes place in very good yields (83%-99.6%) under very mild conditions to afford 4-substituted pyrazolidin-3-ols (as diastereomer mixtures); subsequent oxidation with PCC affords the corresponding-4-substituted-3-pyrazolidinones in essentially quantitative yields. In a similar way, 4-substituted isoxazolidinones are obtained with N-Cbz-hydroxylamine as a reagent. The use of chiral diarylprolinol trimethylsilyl ethers as catalysts allows the synthesis of several of these compounds in optically active form, in some cases with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 96:4 er). A preliminary evaluation of the biological activity shows that some of these compounds exhibit interesting antibacterial and antifungal activities.

Expedient synthesis of 1,6-anhydro-α-D-galactofuranose, a useful intermediate for glycobiological tools.

Project description:A new and efficient three-step procedure for the synthesis of 1,6-anhydro-α-D-galactofuranose is described. The key step involves the formation of the galactofuranosyl iodide by treatment of per-O-TBS-D-Galf with TMSI, the selective 6-O-desilylation by an excess of TMSI, and the simultaneous nucleophilic attack of the 6-hydroxy group on the anomeric carbon, with the iodide as a good leaving group. This compound is a good precursor for building blocks for the construction of 1→6 linkages.

Short stereoselective synthesis of alpha-substituted gamma-lactams.

Project description:A concise, stereoselective synthesis of alpha-substituted gamma-lactams is reported. gamma-Lactam scaffolds 2 and 3, possessing an Evans' chiral auxiliary and two types of N substituents, were successfully alkylated with different electrophiles to give alpha-substituted gamma-lactams with reasonable diastereoselectivities. The use of a masked carboxymethyl function off the lactam nitrogen provided a convergent means to alpha-substituted gamma-lactam dipeptide isosteres.

An expedient route to substituted furans via olefin cross-metathesis.

Project description:The olefin cross-metathesis (CM) reaction is used extensively in organic chemistry and represents a powerful method for the selective synthesis of differentially substituted alkene products. Surprisingly, efforts to integrate this remarkable process into strategies for aromatic and heteroaromatic construction have not been reported. Such structures represent key elements of the majority of small molecule drug compounds; methods for the controlled preparation of highly substituted derivatives are essential to medicinal chemistry. Here we show that the olefin CM reaction, in combination with an acid cocatalyst or subsequent Heck arylation, provides a concise and flexible entry to 2,5-di- or 2,3,5-tri-substituted furans. These cascade processes portend further opportunities for the regiocontrolled preparation of other highly substituted aromatic and heteroaromatic classes.

Expedient synthesis of threo-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid derivatives: phenylalanine, tyrosine, histidine, and tryptophan.

Project description:An expedient synthesis of enantiomerically pure threo-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid derivatives of phenylalanine, tyrosine, histidine, and tryptophan is described. The NBS-mediated radical bromination of the N,N-di-tert-butoxycarbonyl protected alpha-amino acids and subsequent treatment with silver nitrate in acetone provided the trans-oxazolidinones predominantly. Cesium carbonate catalyzed hydrolysis then generated the beta-hydroxy amino acid derivatives in excellent overall yield.

Facile Synthesis of 3-Substituted Thiazolo[2,3-α]tetrahydroisoquinolines.

Project description:It was found that 4-hydroxy-2-butenoic ester (11) could not react with 3,4-dihydro-isoquinoline (4a). Individual addition reactions of γ-mercapto-α,β-unsaturated esters (18) and -unsaturated amide (19) with 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines (4) were carried out under appropriate conditions to provide the corresponding thiazolo[2,3-α]isoquinoline derivatives with good yields (up to 87%) and significant diastereomeric selectivity. The mechanism of the crucial reaction was discussed.

Expedient enantioselective synthesis of cermizine D.

Project description:An efficient enantioselective synthesis of cermizine D has been developed that exploits the use of a common intermediate to access over 85% of the carbon backbone. Key steps include an organocatalyzed heteroatom Michael addition, a diastereoselective alkylation with α-iodomethyl phenyl sulfide, a conjugate addition to a vinyl sulfone species, and a sulfone coupling/desulfurization sequence to join the two major subunits.

Expedient on-resin synthesis of peptidic benzimidazoles.

Project description:The benzimidazole moiety is a ubiquitous pharmacophore present in numerous anthelmintic, antibacterial, antiviral, antineoplastic, and antifungal drugs. While the polypharmacology of this heterocycle has spurred the development of numerous solution-phase syntheses, only a handful of disparate and inefficient methods detailing its synthesis on-resin have been reported. Here we report the concise and expedient syntheses of internal and C-terminal peptidic benzimidazoles - an emerging class of peptide deformylase (PDF)-inhibiting antimicrobials. This method benefits from being performed wholly on solid-phase at room temperature resulting in minimal purification and tolerance of temperature-sensitive functionality.

Expedient Synthesis of SMAMPs via Click Chemistry.

Project description:A novel series of synthetic mimics of antimicrobial peptides (SMAMPs) containing triazole linkers were assembled using click chemistry. While only moderately active in buffer alone, an increase in antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was observed when these SMAMPs were administered in the presence of mouse serum. One compound had minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 0.39 μg/mL and 6.25 μg/mL, respectively, and an HC50 of 693 μg/mL. These values compared favorably to peptide-based antimicrobials. A correlation between the net positive charge and SMAMP antimicrobial activity was observed. The triazole linker, an amide surrogate, was found to provide better antimicrobial activity against both S. aureus and E. coli when compared to other analogues.
