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.

Ni-Catalyzed Carbon-Carbon Bond-Forming Reductive Amination.

Project description:This report describes a three-component, Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling that enables the convergent synthesis of tertiary benzhydryl amines, which are challenging to access by traditional reductive amination methodologies. The reaction makes use of iminium ions generated in situ from the condensation of secondary N-trimethylsilyl amines with benzaldehydes, and these species undergo reaction with several distinct classes of organic electrophiles. The synthetic value of this process is demonstrated by a single-step synthesis of antimigraine drug flunarizine (Sibelium) and high yielding derivatization of paroxetine (Paxil) and metoprolol (Lopressor). Mechanistic investigations support a sequential oxidative addition mechanism rather than a pathway proceeding via ?-amino radical formation. Accordingly, application of catalytic conditions to an intramolecular reductive coupling is demonstrated for the synthesis of endo- and exocyclic benzhydryl amines.

Controlling reaction pathways of selective C-O bond cleavage of glycerol.

Project description:The selective hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reaction is desirable to convert glycerol into various value-added products by breaking different numbers of C-O bonds while maintaining C-C bonds. Here we combine experimental and density functional theory (DFT) results to reveal that the Cu modifier can significantly reduce the oxophilicity of the molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) surface and change the product distribution. The Mo2C surface is active for breaking all C-O bonds to produce propylene. As the Cu coverage increases to 0.5 monolayer (ML), the Cu/Mo2C surface shows activity towards breaking two C-O bonds and forming ally-alcohol and propanal. As the Cu coverage further increases, the Cu/Mo2C surface cleaves one C-O bond to form acetol. DFT calculations reveal that the Mo2C surface, Cu-Mo interface, and Cu surface are distinct sites for the production of propylene, ally-alcohol, and acetol, respectively. This study explores the feasibility of tuning the glycerol HDO selectivity by modifying the surface oxophilicity.

Carbon-fluorine bond cleavage mediated by metalloenzymes.

Project description:Fluorochemicals are a widely distributed class of compounds and have been utilized across a wide range of industries for decades. Given the environmental toxicity and adverse health threats of some fluorochemicals, the development of new methods for their decomposition is significant to public health. However, the carbon-fluorine (C-F) bond is among the most chemically robust bonds; consequently, the degradation of fluorinated hydrocarbons is exceptionally difficult. Here, metalloenzymes that catalyze the cleavage of this chemically challenging bond are reviewed. These enzymes include histidine-ligated heme-dependent dehaloperoxidase and tyrosine hydroxylase, thiolate-ligated heme-dependent cytochrome P450, and four nonheme oxygenases, namely, tetrahydrobiopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylase, 2-oxoglutarate-dependent hydroxylase, Rieske dioxygenase, and thiol dioxygenase. While much of the literature regarding the aforementioned enzymes highlights their ability to catalyze C-H bond activation and functionalization, in many cases, the C-F bond cleavage has been shown to occur on fluorinated substrates. A copper-dependent laccase-mediated system representing an unnatural radical defluorination approach is also described. Detailed discussions on the structure-function relationships and catalytic mechanisms provide insights into biocatalytic defluorination, which may inspire drug design considerations and environmental remediation of halogenated contaminants.

Nitrososynthase-triggered oxidative carbon-carbon bond cleavage in baumycin biosynthesis.

Project description:Baumycins are coproduced with the clinically important anticancer secondary metabolites daunorubicin and doxorubicin, which are glycosylated anthracyclines isolated from Streptomyces peucetius. The distinguishing feature of baumycins is the presence of an unusual acetal moiety appended to daunosamine, which is hydrolyzed during acidic extraction of daunorubicin from fermentation broth. The structure of the baumycin acetal suggests that it is likely derived from an unknown C3?-methyl deoxysugar cleaved between the C3? and C4? positions. This is supported by analysis of the baumycin/daunorubicin biosynthetic gene cluster (dox), which also encodes putative proteins consistent with production of an anthracycline dissacharide containing a branched sugar. Notably, the dnmZ gene in the dox gene cluster possesses high translated sequence similarity to nitrososynthases, which are flavin-dependent amine monooxygenases involved in the four-electron oxidation of amino sugars to nitroso sugars. Herein we demonstrate that DnmZ is an amino sugar nitrososynthase that initiates the conversion of thymidine-5'-diphosphate-l-epi-vancosamine to a ring-opened product via a previously uncharacterized retro oxime-aldol reaction.

An unusual carbon-carbon bond cleavage reaction during phosphinothricin biosynthesis.

Project description:Natural products containing phosphorus-carbon bonds have found widespread use in medicine and agriculture. One such compound, phosphinothricin tripeptide, contains the unusual amino acid phosphinothricin attached to two alanine residues. Synthetic phosphinothricin (glufosinate) is a component of two top-selling herbicides (Basta and Liberty), and is widely used with resistant transgenic crops including corn, cotton and canola. Recent genetic and biochemical studies showed that during phosphinothricin tripeptide biosynthesis 2-hydroxyethylphosphonate (HEP) is converted to hydroxymethylphosphonate (HMP). Here we report the in vitro reconstitution of this unprecedented C(sp(3))-C(sp(3)) bond cleavage reaction and X-ray crystal structures of the enzyme. The protein is a mononuclear non-haem iron(ii)-dependent dioxygenase that converts HEP to HMP and formate. In contrast to most other members of this family, the oxidative consumption of HEP does not require additional cofactors or the input of exogenous electrons. The current study expands the scope of reactions catalysed by the 2-His-1-carboxylate mononuclear non-haem iron family of enzymes.

Carbon-carbon bond cleavage in activation of the prodrug nabumetone.

Project description:Carbon-carbon bond cleavage reactions are catalyzed by, among others, lanosterol 14-demethylase (CYP51), cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme (CYP11), sterol 17?-lyase (CYP17), and aromatase (CYP19). Because of the high substrate specificities of these enzymes and the complex nature of their substrates, these reactions have been difficult to characterize. A CYP1A2-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond cleavage reaction is required for conversion of the prodrug nabumetone to its active form, 6-methoxy-2-naphthylacetic acid (6-MNA). Despite worldwide use of nabumetone as an anti-inflammatory agent, the mechanism of its carbon-carbon bond cleavage reaction remains obscure. With the help of authentic synthetic standards, we report here that the reaction involves 3-hydroxylation, carbon-carbon cleavage to the aldehyde, and oxidation of the aldehyde to the acid, all catalyzed by CYP1A2 or, less effectively, by other P450 enzymes. The data indicate that the carbon-carbon bond cleavage is mediated by the ferric peroxo anion rather than the ferryl species in the P450 catalytic cycle. CYP1A2 also catalyzes O-demethylation and alcohol to ketone transformations of nabumetone and its analogs.

Palladium- and Nickel-Catalyzed Carbon-Carbon Bond Insertion Reactions with Alkylidenesilacyclopropanes.

Project description:Palladium and nickel catalysts promoted highly selective carbon-carbon bond insertion reactions with di-tert-butyl-alkylidenesilacyclopropanes. Pd(PPh(3))(4) was demonstrated to be the optimal catalyst, allowing for a variety of carbon-carbon pi-bond insertion reactions. Depending on the nature of the carbon-carbon pi bond, the insertion reaction proceeded with either direct insertion into the carbon(sp(2))-silicon bond or with allylic transposition. Ring-substituted alkylidenesilacyclopropanes required a nickel catalyst to afford insertion products. Using Ni(cod)(2) as the carbon-carbon bond insertion catalyst, new double alkyne insertion products and alkene isomerization products were observed.

Structural basis for Diels-Alder ribozyme-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation.

Project description:The majority of structural efforts addressing RNA's catalytic function have focused on natural ribozymes, which catalyze phosphodiester transfer reactions. By contrast, little is known about how RNA catalyzes other types of chemical reactions. We report here the crystal structures of a ribozyme that catalyzes enantioselective carbon-carbon bond formation by the Diels-Alder reaction in the unbound state and in complex with a reaction product. The RNA adopts a lambda-shaped nested pseudoknot architecture whose preformed hydrophobic pocket is precisely complementary in shape to the reaction product. RNA folding and product binding are dictated by extensive stacking and hydrogen bonding, whereas stereoselection is governed by the shape of the catalytic pocket. Catalysis is apparently achieved by a combination of proximity, complementarity and electronic effects. We observe structural parallels in the independently evolved catalytic pocket architectures for ribozyme- and antibody-catalyzed Diels-Alder carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions.
