Nucleophilic ortho-allylation of pyrroles and pyrazoles: an accelerated Pummerer/thio-Claisen rearrangement sequence.

ABSTRACT: Arylsulfinyl groups direct the metal-free, regiospecific, nucleophilic ortho-allylation of pyrroles and pyrazoles. Mechanistic studies support the intermediacy of allylsulfonium salts that undergo facile thio-Claisen rearrangement onto the heterocyclic ring, giving products of coupling. The strategy has been adapted to allow regiospecific propargylation of the heterocyclic substrates.

Deacylative allylation: allylic alkylation via retro-Claisen activation.

Project description:A new method for allylic alkylation of a variety of relatively nonstabilized carbon nucleophiles is described herein. In this process of "deacylative allylation", the coupling partners, an allylic alcohol and a ketone pronucleophile, undergo in situ retro-Claisen activation to generate an allylic acetate and a carbanion. In the presence of palladium, these reactive intermediates undergo catalytic coupling to form a new C-C bond. In comparison to unimolecular decarboxylative allylation, a commonly utilized method for allylation of carbon anions, deacylative allylation is an intermolecular process. Moreover, deacylative allylation allows the direct coupling of readily available allylic alcohols. Lastly, the full utility of deacylative allylation is demonstrated by the rapid construction of a variety 1,6-heptadienes via 3-component couplings.

Rapid Assembly of Tetrasubstituted Furans via Pummerer-Type Rearrangement.

Project description:Despite the many methods available for the synthesis of furans, few methods remain that allow for the custom-made assembly of fully substituted furans. Here we report a powerful protocol to rapidly construct tetrasubstituted, orthogonally functionalized furans under mild reaction conditions. The developed method involves the regioselective ring-opening of readily available 2,5-dihydrothiophenes followed by an oxidative cyclization to provide the heterocycle. The selective oxidation at sulfur is promoted by N-chlorosuccinimide as an inexpensive reagent and proceeds at ambient temperature in high yield within 30 min. The obtained furans serve as exceptionally versatile intermediates and were shown to participate in a series of valuable postmodifications. The fate of the initial sulfonium intermediate was investigated by mechanistic experiments, and computational studies revealed the existence of an unprecedented Pummerer-type rearrangement. The potential for organic synthesis is highlighted by the total synthesis of bisabolene sesquiterpenoids (pleurotins A, B, and D).

Alkene Isomerization Revitalizes the Coates-Claisen Rearrangement.

Project description:The [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of allylic vinyl acetals, first investigated by Coates nearly four decades ago, is set apart from other variants of the Claisen rearrangement owing to the versatile monoprotected 1,5-dicarbonyl motif featured in the products. Unfortunately, the synthetically elusive nature of the substrates has thus far precluded the widespread application of this attractive transformation. Herein, we show that the key allylic vinyl acetals can be efficiently generated through alkene isomerization of their readily available regioisomeric counterparts (derived from allylic alcohols and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes), thus enabling the first systematic study of the substrate scope of this rearrangement, as well as the discovery of exceptionally mild conditions for its mediation by Lewis and Brønsted acids.

Repurposing the Pummerer Rearrangement: Determination of Methionine Sulfoxides in Peptides.

Project description:The reversible oxidation of methionine residues in proteins has emerged as a biologically important post-translational modification. However, detection and quantitation of methionine sulfoxide in proteins is difficult. Our aim is to develop a method for specifically derivatizing methionine sulfoxide residues. We report a Pummerer rearrangement of methionine sulfoxide treated sequentially with trimethylsilyl chloride and then 2-mercaptoimidazole or pyridine-2-thiol to produce a dithioacetal product. This derivative is stable to standard mass spectrometry conditions, and its formation identified oxidized methionine residues. The scope and requirements of dithioacetal formation are reported for methionine sulfoxide and model substrates. The reaction intermediates have been investigated by computational techniques and by 13 C NMR spectroscopy. These provide evidence for an α-chlorinated intermediate. The derivatization allows for detection and quantitation of methionine sulfoxide in proteins by mass spectrometry and potentially by immunochemical methods.

Enantioselective Allenoate-Claisen Rearrangement Using Chiral Phosphate Catalysts.

Project description:Herein we report the first highly enantioselective allenoate-Claisen rearrangement using doubly axially chiral phosphate sodium salts as catalysts. This synthetic method provides access to β-amino acid derivatives with vicinal stereocenters in up to 95% ee. We also investigated the mechanism of enantioinduction by transition state (TS) computations with DFT as well as statistical modeling of the relationship between selectivity and the molecular features of both the catalyst and substrate. The mutual interactions of charge-separated regions in both the zwitterionic intermediate generated by reaction of an amine to the allenoate and the Na+-salt of the chiral phosphate leads to an orientation of the TS in the catalytic pocket that maximizes favorable noncovalent interactions. Crucial arene-arene interactions at the periphery of the catalyst lead to a differentiation of the TS diastereomers. These interactions were interrogated using DFT calculations and validated through statistical modeling of parameters describing noncovalent interactions.

Alkylcysteine Sulfoxide C-S Monooxygenase Uses a Flavin-Dependent Pummerer Rearrangement.

Project description:Flavoenzymes are highly versatile and participate in the catalysis of a wide range of reactions, including key reactions in the metabolism of sulfur-containing compounds. S-Alkyl cysteine is formed primarily by the degradation of S-alkyl glutathione generated during electrophile detoxification. A recently discovered S-alkyl cysteine salvage pathway uses two flavoenzymes (CmoO and CmoJ) to dealkylate this metabolite in soil bacteria. CmoO catalyzes a stereospecific sulfoxidation, and CmoJ catalyzes the cleavage of one of the sulfoxide C-S bonds in a new reaction of unknown mechanism. In this paper, we investigate the mechanism of CmoJ. We provide experimental evidence that eliminates carbanion and radical intermediates and conclude that the reaction proceeds via an unprecedented enzyme-mediated modified Pummerer rearrangement. The elucidation of the mechanism of CmoJ adds a new motif to the flavoenzymology of sulfur-containing natural products and demonstrates a new strategy for the enzyme-catalyzed cleavage of C-S bonds.

An enantioselective Claisen rearrangement catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes.

Project description:In the presence of a chiral azolium salt (10 mol %), enols and ynals undergo a highly enantioselective annulation reaction to form enantiomerically enriched dihydropyranones via an N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed variant of the Claisen rearrangement. Unlike other azolium-catalyzed reactions, this process requires no added base to generate the putative NHC-catalyst, and our investigations demonstrate that the counterion of the azolium salt plays a key role in the formation of the catalytically active species. Detailed kinetic studies eliminate a potential 1,4-addition as the mechanistic pathway; the observed rate law and activation parameters are consistent with a Claisen rearrangement as the rate-limiting step. This catalytic system was applied to the synthesis of enantioenriched kojic acid derivatives, a reaction of demonstrated synthetic utility for which other methods for catalytic enantioselective Claisen rearrangements have not provided a satisfactory solution.

Base-Mediated Claisen Rearrangement of CF3-Containing Bisallyl Ethers.

Project description:We have previously clarified that the strongly electron-withdrawing CF3 group nicely affected the base-mediated proton shift of CF3-containing propargylic or allylic alcohols to afford the corresponding α,β-unsaturated or saturated ketones, respectively, which was applied this time to the Claisen rearrangement after O-allylation of the allylic alcohols with a CF3 group, followed by isomerization to the corresponding allyl vinyl ethers via the proton shift, enabling the desired rearrangement in a tandem fashion, or in a stepwise manner, the latter of which was proved to have attained an excellent diastereoselectivity with the aid of a palladium catalyst.

Gold(I)-Catalyzed Nucleophilic Allylation of Azinium Ions with Allylboronates.

Project description:Gold(I)-catalyzed nucleophilic allylations of pyridinium and quinolinium ions with various allyl pinacolboronates are reported. The reactions are completely selective with respect to the site of the azinium ion that is attacked, to give various functionalized 1,4-dihydropyridines and 1,4-dihydroquinolines. Evidence suggests that the reactions proceed through nucleophilic allylgold(I) intermediates formed by transmetalation from allylboronates. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations provided mechanistic insight.
