Simple Synthesis of Amides and Weinreb Amides via Use of PPh3 or Polymer-Supported PPh3 and Iodine.

ABSTRACT: The combination of PPh3/I2 has been shown to be effective for conversion of a range of carboxylic acids to 2°, 3°, and Weinreb amides. Simplification of the procedure was possible with the use of polymer-supported PPh3/I2. Weinreb amides produced via the use of polymer-supported PPh3 could be filtered through a short silica gel plug and used in further transformations. Thus, use of polymer-supported PPh3 offers potential applicability to diversity-oriented reactions. Formal total syntheses of apocynin and pratosine, as well as syntheses of anhydrolychorinone and hippadine, have been achieved via the use of this amide-forming method. An attempt has been made to gain insight into this reaction.

Synthesis of unsymmetrical 3,4-diaryl-3-pyrrolin-2-ones utilizing pyrrole Weinreb amides.

Project description:A regiocontrolled synthesis of unsymmetrical 3,4-diaryl-3-pyrrolin-2-ones has been achieved in three steps from 1,2-diaryl-1-nitroethenes with pyrrole-2-carboxamides (pyrrole Weinreb amides) serving as the key linchpin intermediates. Two different methods for the preparation of the requisite nitroalkenes were investigated: (1) modified Henry reaction between arylnitromethanes and arylimines; and (2) Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of 2-aryl-1-bromo-1-nitroethenes with arylboronic acids. Some difficulty was encountered in the preparation of arylnitromethanes, thus leading to the exploration of a cross-coupling strategy that proved more useful. A Barton-Zard pyrrole cyclocondensation reaction between 1,2-diaryl-1-nitroethenes and N-methoxy-N-methyl-2-isocyanoacetamide gave the corresponding pyrrole Weinreb amides, which were then converted into the desired 3-pyrrolin-2-ones in two steps. Overall, this method allowed for the construction of 3,4-diaryl-3-pyrrolin-2-ones with complete regiocontrol of the substituents with respect to the lactam carbonyl. The utility of this synthetic methodology was demonstrated by the preparation of eight unsymmetrical and symmetrical 3,4-diaryl-3-pyrrolin-2-ones including the N-H lactam analogue of the selective COX-II inhibitor, rofecoxib.

?-Amino functionalization of cinnamic Weinreb amides in ionic liquid.

Project description:2-Ns-Protected ?-amino Weinreb amides were synthesized by aminochlorination of ?,?-unsaturated Weinreb amides in an ionic liquid, 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([BMIM][NTf2]). Processed without the use of metal catalysts or the need of an inert gas atmosphere, the presented process can be readily performed as a one-pot synthesis at room temperature. Moreover, the preparation has the distinct advantages of the use of 2-NsNCl2 as an inexpensive and stable nitrogen/halogen source and the ionic liquid as a recyclable reaction media. Nine examples were examined, and modest to good isolated chemical yields (40-83%) were obtained.

Ligand-Enabled, Palladium-Catalyzed ?-C(sp3)-H Arylation of Weinreb Amides.

Project description:We report the development of Pd(II)-catalyzed C(sp3)-H arylation of Weinreb amides. This work demonstrates the first example of using Weinreb amide as a directing group for transition metal-catalyzed C(sp3)-H activation. Both the inductive effect and the potential bidentate coordination mode of the Weinreb amides pose a unique challenge for this reaction development. A pyridinesulfonic acid ligand is designed to accommodate the weak, neutral coordinating property of Weinreb amides via preserving the cationic character of Pd center through zwitterionic assembly of Pd/ligand complexes. DFT studies of the C-H cleavage step indicate that the superior reactivity of 3-pyridinesulfonic acid ligand compared to pyridine, Ac-Gly-OH, and ligandless conditions originates from the stabilization of overall substrate-bound Pd species.

Lithium Enolates Derived from Weinreb Amides: Insights into Five-Membered Chelate Rings.

Project description:Enolization of O-methyl hydroxamic acids (Weinreb amides) in tetrahydrofuran solution with lithium diisopropylamide affords predominantly tetrameric enolates. Aryl substituents on the enolates promote deaggregation. The aggregation states are assigned by using the method of continuous variation in conjunction with 6Li NMR spectroscopy. Decoalescence of the tetramer resonance below -100 °C shows considerable spectral complexity attributed to isomerism of the methoxy-based chelates. Density functional theory calculations were used to examine the consequences of the bite angle of five-membered chelates in cubic tetramers and resulting solvation numbers that were higher than anticipated.

Alpha-fluorovinyl Weinreb amides and alpha-fluoroenones from a common fluorinated building block.

Project description:Synthesis and reactivity of N-methoxy-N-methyl-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfonyl)fluoroacetamide, a building block for Julia olefination, is reported. This reagent undergoes condensation reactions with aldehydes and cyclic ketones to give alpha-fluorovinyl Weinreb amides. Olefination reactions proceed under mild, DBU-mediated conditions, or in the presence of NaH. DBU-mediated condensations proceed with either E- or Z-selectivity, depending upon reaction conditions, whereas NaH-mediated reactions are > or = 98% Z-stereoselective. Conversion of the Weinreb amide moiety in N-methoxy-N-methyl-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)fluoroacetamide to ketones, followed by oxidation, resulted in another set of olefination reagents, namely (1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfonyl)fluoromethyl phenyl and propyl ketones. In the presence of DBU, these compounds react with aldehydes tested to give alpha-fluoroenones with high Z-selectivity. The use of N-methoxy-N-methyl-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)fluoroacetamide as a common fluorinated intermediate in the synthesis of alpha-fluorovinyl Weinreb amides and alpha-fluoroenones has been demonstrated. Application of the Weinreb amide to alpha-fluoro allyl amine synthesis is also shown.

Enantioselective synthesis of ?-oxy amides via Umpolung amide synthesis.

Project description:?-Oxy amides are prepared through enantioselective synthesis using a sequence beginning with a Henry addition of bromonitromethane to aldehydes and finishing with Umpolung Amide Synthesis (UmAS). Key to high enantioselection is the finding that ortho-iodo benzoic acid salts of the chiral copper(II) bis(oxazoline) catalyst deliver both diastereomers of the Henry adduct with high enantiomeric excess, homochiral at the oxygen-bearing carbon. Overall, this approach to ?-oxy amides provides an innovative complement to alternatives that focus almost entirely on the enantioselective synthesis of ?-oxy carboxylic acids.

Borate esters: Simple catalysts for the sustainable synthesis of complex amides.

Project description:Chemical reactions for the formation of amide bonds are among the most commonly used transformations in organic chemistry, yet they are often highly inefficient. A novel protocol for amidation using a simple borate ester catalyst is reported. The process presents significant improvements over other catalytic amidation methods in terms of efficiency and safety, with an unprecedented substrate scope including functionalized heterocycles and even unprotected amino acids. The method was used to access a wide range of functionalized amide derivatives, including pharmaceutically relevant targets, important synthetic intermediates, a catalyst, and a natural product.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of simple phenol amides as ERRγ agonists.

Project description:Herein we report the design and synthesis of a series of simple phenol amide ERRγ agonists based on a hydrazone lead molecule. Our structure activity relationship studies in this series revealed the phenol portion of the molecule to be required for activity. Attempts to replace the hydrazone with more suitable chemotypes led to a simple amide as a viable alternative. Differential hydrogen-deuterium exchange experiments were used to help understand the structural basis for binding to ERRγ and aid in the development of more potent ligands.

The Application of Flow Chemistry for the Synthesis of Alkyl Sodium Compounds and Their Transformations with Weinreb Amides and Carboxylic Acids.

Project description:Herein, we describe the application of a flow system for the generation of a soluble organo sodium compound and the transformation of this primary nucleophile with various Weinreb amides for the synthesis of alkyl-aryl ketones. Thereafter, the generation of secondary sodium intermediates, such as benzylic sodium nucleophiles or ortho-metalated sodium nucleophiles from various carbon pre-nucleophiles, is described. These transformations generated more complex ketones, and in this investigation the key aspect was to identify factors for the chemoselective and regioselective C-H deprotonation of concurring sites within the starting material. Finally, the direct synthesis of ketones from carboxylic acids and the organo sodium compound is described, revealing interesting aspects regarding the nucleophilicity and basicity of the alkyl sodium reagent.

Polymer-Supported Synthesis of Various Pteridinones and Pyrimidodiazepinones.

Project description:In this report, we employed the solid-phase synthetic approach to prepare variously substituted dihydropteridinones, tetrahydropyrrolopteridinones, and pyrimidodiazepinones, using a versatile building block-4,6-dichloro-5-nitropyrimidine. All these compounds are pharmacologically significant scaffolds of the great importance of medicinal chemists. The fast and efficient synthetic methodology is highly desirable for defining their structure-activity relationship (SAR) and optimizing pharmacokinetic properties. Our research efforts utilize simple synthetic methods to generate a library of analogues for future SAR studies. The efficiency of our approach was exemplified in various pteridinones as well as pyrimidodiazepinones.
