Overcoming product inhibition in catalysis of the intramolecular Schmidt reaction.

ABSTRACT: A method for carrying out the intramolecular Schmidt reaction of alkyl azides and ketones using a substoichiometric amount of catalyst is reported. Following extensive screening, the use of the strong hydrogen-bond-donating solvent hexafluoro-2-propanol was found to be consistent with low catalyst loadings, which ranged from 2.5 mol % for favorable substrates to 25 mol % for more difficult cases. Reaction optimization, broad substrate scope, and preliminary mechanistic studies of this improved version of the reaction are described.

Synthesis, structural analysis, and reactivity of bridged orthoamides by intramolecular Schmidt reaction.

Project description:Intramolecular Schmidt reactions can be reliably steered toward bridged heterocycles containing orthoamides in high yields. The ketal tether enhances the control of regioselectivity in the migration of the bond distal to the reactive azide nucleophile, thus providing the first examples of the intramolecular Schmidt reaction proceeding with a complete regioselectivity en route to bridged products. The method is broad in scope and allows for systematic study of compounds that are analogous to elusive tetrahedral intermediates of amide addition reactions. Some initial reactivity and structural profiling of these compounds are also reported.

Temperature dependence of turnover in a Sc(OTf)3-catalyzed intramolecular Schmidt reaction.

Project description:The intramolecular Schmidt reaction of ketones and tethered azides is an efficient method for the generation of amides and lactams. This reaction is catalyzed by Lewis acids, which tightly bind the strongly basic amide product and result in product inhibition. We report herein conditions to achieve a catalytic Schmidt reaction using substoichiometric amounts of the heat-stable Lewis acid Sc(OTf)3. This species was shown to effectively release products of the Schmidt reaction in a temperature-dependent fashion. Thus, heat was able to promote catalyst turnover. A brief substrate scope was conducted using these conditions.

Stereoselective and Stereospecific Triflate-Mediated Intramolecular Schmidt Reaction: Ready Access to Alkaloid Skeletons*.

Project description:The stereoselectivity and stereospecificity of the triflate-mediated intramolecular Schmidt reaction of substituted 3-(1-azidocyclohexyl)propanol derivatives leading to octahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepine, the structural skeleton of several important families of alkaloids such as the Stemona alkaloids, has been examined. The reaction involves an initial intramolecular SN 2 reaction between the azide moiety and the triflate affording an intermediate spirocyclic aminodiazonoium salt that undergoes the expected 1,2-shift/N2 -elimination followed by hydride-mediated iminium salt reduction. Remarkably, chiral alcohols are converted to the azabicyclic derivative with no or limited racemization. The initial asymmetric alcohol center controls the diastereoselectivity of the whole process, leading to the formation of one out of the four possible diastereoisomers of disubstituted octahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepine. The origin of the stereoselectivity is rationalized based on theoretical calculations. The concise synthesis of (-)-(cis)-3-propylindolizidine and (-)-(cis)-3-butyllehmizidine, two alkaloids found in the venom of workers of the ant Myrmicaria melanogaster, is reported.

Revisiting a classic approach to the Aspidosperma alkaloids: an intramolecular Schmidt reaction mediated synthesis of (+)-aspidospermidine.

Project description:[reaction: see text] A total synthesis of (+)-aspidospermidine (1) is described. The key reactions used in the synthesis of this pentacyclic Aspidosperma alkaloid were a deracemizing imine alkylation/Robinson annulation sequence, a selective "redox ketalization", and an intramolecular Schmidt reaction. A Fischer indolization step carried out on a tricyclic ketone mirrored the sequence reported by Stork and Dolfini in their classic aspidospermine synthesis.

Synthesis of medium-bridged twisted lactams via cation-pi control of the regiochemistry of the intramolecular Schmidt reaction.

Project description:Medium-bridged twisted amides can be synthesized by the intramolecular Schmidt reaction of 2-azidoalkyl ketones. In these reactions, the regiochemistry of the Schmidt reaction is diverted into a typically disfavored pathway by the presence of an aromatic group at the alpha-position adjacent to the ketone, which stabilizes the predominantly reactive conformation of the azidohydrin intermediate by engaging in a nonbonded cation-pi interaction with the positively charged diazonium cation. This results in the rarely observed rearrangement of the C-C bond distal to the azidoalkyl chain. This reaction pathway also requires the azide-containing tether to be situated in the axial orientation in the key azidohydrin intermediate. Examination of the effect of substitution of aromatic rings on the regiochemistry of the Schmidt reaction shows an increase in the migratory selectivity with more electron-rich aromatic groups. The selectivity is lower when an electron-withdrawing substituent is placed on the aromatic ring. The ability of cation-pi interactions to act as a controlling element decreases when Lewis acids coordinate to substituents on the aromatic ring. The developed version of the Schmidt reaction provides a direct access to a family of medium-bridged twisted amides with a [4.3.1] bicyclic system, compounds which are very difficult to access with use of other currently available methods.

Overcoming NADPH product inhibition improves D-sorbitol conversion to L-sorbose.

Project description:Gluconobacter oxydans sorbitol dehydrogenase (GoSLDH) exhibits a higher catalytic efficiency than other L-sorbose producing enzymes. During the reaction catalysed by GoSLDH, NADP+ is reduced to NADPH and D-sorbitol is oxidized to L-sorbose. However, GoSLDH activity is inhibited by the NADPH (Ki?=?100??M) formed during the enzymatic reaction. Therefore, Escherichia coligosldh-lrenox producing both GoSLDH for D-sorbitol oxidation and LreNOX (NAD(P)H oxidase from Lactobacillus reuteri) for NADP+ regeneration was generated and used for L-sorbose production. Whole cell biocatalysts with the LreNOX cofactor recycling system showed a high conversion rate (92%) of D-sorbitol to L-sorbose in the presence of low concentration of NADP+ (0.5?mM). By alleviating NADPH accumulation during the catalytic reactions, E. coligosldh-lrenox exhibited 23-fold higher conversion rate of D-sorbitol than E. coligosldh. L-Sorbose production by E. coligosldh-lrenox reached 4.1?g/L after 40?min, which was 20.5-fold higher than that of E. coligosldh. We also constructed G. oxydansgosldh and G. oxydansgosldh-lrenox strains, and they exhibited 1.2- and 2.9-fold higher conversion rates than the wild-type G. oxydans KCTC 1091. The results indicate that overcoming NADPH product inhibition using LreNOX improves chemical production in NADP+-dependent enzymatic reactions.

Product-assisted catalysis as the basis of the reaction specificity of threonine synthase.

Project description:Threonine synthase (TS), which is a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme, catalyzes the elimination of the ?-phosphate group from O-phospho-L-homoserine (OPHS) and the subsequent addition of water at C? to form L-threonine. The catalytic course of TS is the most complex among the PLP enzymes, and it is an intriguing problem how the elementary steps are controlled in TS to carry out selective reactions. When L-vinylglycine was added to Thermus thermophilus HB8 TS in the presence of phosphate, L-threonine was formed with k(cat) and reaction specificity comparable with those when OPHS was used as the substrate. However, in the absence of phosphate or when sulfate was used in place of phosphate, only the side reaction product, ?-ketobutyrate, was formed. Global analysis of the spectral changes in the reaction of TS with L-threonine showed that compared with the more acidic sulfate ion, the phosphate ion decreased the energy levels of the transition states of the addition of water at the C? of the PLP-?-aminocrotonate aldimine (AC) and the transaldimination to form L-threonine. The x-ray crystallographic analysis of TS complexed with an analog for AC gave a distinct electron density assigned to the phosphate ion derived from the solvent near the C? of the analog. These results indicated that the phosphate ion released from OPHS by ?-elimination acts as the base catalyst for the addition of water at C? of AC, thereby providing the basis of the reaction specificity. The phosphate ion is also considered to accelerate the protonation/deprotonation at C?.

Intramolecular Pd-catalyzed carboetherification and carboamination. Influence of catalyst structure on reaction mechanism and product stereochemistry.

Project description:The intramolecular Pd-catalyzed carboetherification of alkenes affords 2-indan-1-yltetrahydrofuran products in moderate to good yield with good to excellent levels of diastereoselectivity. The stereochemical outcome of these reactions is dependent on the structure of the Pd catalyst. Use of PCy(3) or P[(4-MeO)C(6)H(4)](3) as the ligand for Pd leads to syn-addition of the arene and the oxygen atom across the double bond, whereas use of (+/-)-BINAP or DPP-benzene affords products that result from anti-addition. The catalyst-induced change in stereochemistry is likely due to a change in reaction mechanism. Evidence is presented that suggests the syn-addition products derive from an unprecedented transannular alkene insertion of an 11-membered Pd(Ar)(OR) complex. In contrast, the anti-addition products appear to arise from Wacker-type anti-oxypalladation. Studies on analogous Pd-catalyzed intramolecular carboamination reactions, which afford 2-indan-1-ylpyrrolidines that result from syn-addition, are also described.
