Catalytic, enantioselective synthesis of 1,2-anti-diols by asymmetric ring-opening/cross-metathesis.

ABSTRACT: An enantioselective method for the synthesis of 1,2-anti-diols has been developed. A cyclometalated chiral-at-ruthenium complex catalyzes the asymmetric ring-opening/cross-metathesis of dioxygenated cyclobutenes, thus resulting in functionally rich synthetic building blocks. Syntheses of the insect pheromone (+)-endo-brevicomin and monosaccharide ribose demonstrate the synthetic utility of the 1,2-anti-diol fragments generated in the title reaction.

Tandem Z-Selective Cross-Metathesis/Dihydroxylation: Synthesis of anti-1,2-Diols.

Project description:A stereoselective synthesis of anti-1,2-diols has been developed using a multitasking Ru catalyst in an assisted tandem catalysis protocol. A cyclometalated Ru complex catalyzes first a Z-selective cross-metathesis of two terminal olefins, followed by a stereospecific dihydroxylation. Both steps are catalyzed by Ru, as the Ru complex is converted to a dihydroxylation catalyst upon addition of NaIO4. A variety of olefins were transformed into valuable, highly functionalized, and stereodefined molecules. Mechanistic experiments were performed to probe the nature of the oxidation step and catalyst inhibition pathways. These experiments point the way to more broadly applicable tandem catalytic transformations.

Practical Route for Catalytic Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization.

Project description:Norbornene derivatives are typical monomers for ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) for synthesizing highly functional polymers. However, the lack of catalytic methods, that is, the lack of readily available chain transfer agents (CTAs) for these monomers has been a significant cost limitation when large-scale syntheses are required. Here, we report commercially available styrene and its derivatives as efficient regioselective CTAs for the catalytic synthesis of metathesis polymers requiring up to 1000 times less ruthenium than in classical ROMP experiments. The molecular weight of the synthesized polymers was controlled by the monomer-to-CTA ratio. Low molecular weight ROMP polymers known for their antimicrobial properties were also synthesized on a gram scale in this report. Polymers were characterized by SEC, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and isotopically resolved MALDI-TOF MS. This approach describes a greener, more cost-effective, and eco-friendly methodology for the preparation of metathesis-based materials on the multigram scale.

Highly Z- and enantioselective ring-opening/cross-metathesis reactions catalyzed by stereogenic-at-Mo adamantylimido complexes.

Project description:The first highly Z- and enantioselective class of ring-opening/cross-metathesis reactions is presented. Transformations are promoted in the presence of <2 mol % of chiral stereogenic-at-Mo monoaryloxide complexes bearing an adamantylimido ligand that are prepared and used in situ. Reactions involve meso oxabicyclic substrates and afford the desired pyrans in 50-85% yield and up to >98:<2 enantiomer ratio. Importantly, the desired chiral pyrans thus obtained bear a Z olefin either exclusively (>98:<2 Z/E) or predominantly (>or=87:13 Z/E).

Highly Z-selective and enantioselective ring-opening/cross-metathesis catalyzed by a resolved stereogenic-at-Ru complex.

Project description:The synthesis of a ruthenium complex that catalyzes Z-selective (up to 98% Z) asymmetric ring-opening/cross-metathesis with high enantioselectivity (up to 95% ee) is reported. The synthesis of the catalyst features the resolution of a chelating N-heterocyclic carbene complex by ligand substitution with a chiral carboxylate.

Enantioselective synthesis of 2,2,5-tri- and 2,2,5,5-tetrasubstituted tetrahydrofurans via [4 + 2] cycloaddition and ring-opening cross-metathesis.

Project description:A chiral vinyl sulfoxide has been developed that undergoes highly diastereoselective Diels-Alder cycloadditions with various substituted furans in excellent yield. The cycloadducts can be stereoselectively transformed into 2,2,5-tri- and 2,2,5,5-tetrasubstituted tetrahydrofurans, which are structural subunits of many natural products, via regioselective ring-opening metathesis/cross-metathesis or oxidative cleavage/refunctionalization.

Development of the enantioselective addition of ethyl diazoacetate to aldehydes: asymmetric synthesis of 1,2-diols.

Project description:A novel synthetic strategy toward the asymmetric synthesis of vicinal diols bearing a tertiary center is presented. The method encompasses the dinuclear Mg-catalyzed asymmetric addition of ethyl diazoacetate into several aldehydes, oxidation of the diazo functionality, and diastereoselective alkyl transfer of various organometallics into the resulting chiral β-hydroxy-α-ketoesters to afford a diverse range of 1,2-diols in high yield, diastereoselectivity, and chirality transfer.

Cohesin releases DNA through asymmetric ATPase-driven ring opening

Project description:Cohesin stably holds together the sister chromatids from S phase until mitosis. To do so, cohesin must be protected against its cellular antagonist Wapl. Eco1 acetylates cohesinâs Smc3 subunit, which locks together the sister DNAs. We used yeast genetics to dissect how Wapl drives cohesin from chromatin and identified mutants of cohesin that are impaired in ATPase activity but remarkably confer robust cohesion that bypasses the need for the cohesin protectors Eco1 in yeast and Sororin in human cells. We uncover an unexpected functional asymmetry within the heart of cohesinâs highly conserved ABC-like ATPase machinery and show that an activity associated with one of cohesinâs two ATPase sites drives DNA release from cohesin rings. This key mechanism is conserved from yeast to humans. We propose that Eco1 locks cohesin rings around the sister chromatids by counteracting an asymmetric cohesin-associated ATPase activity.

Ring-opening carbonyl-olefin metathesis of norbornenes.

Project description:A computational and experimental study of the hydrazine-catalyzed ring-opening carbonyl-olefin metathesis of norbornenes is described. Detailed theoretical investigation of the energetic landscape for the full reaction pathway with six different hydrazines revealed several crucial aspects for the design of next-generation hydrazine catalysts. This study indicated that a [2.2.2]-bicyclic hydrazine should offer substantially increased reactivity versus the previously reported [2.2.1]-hydrazine due to a lowered activation barrier for the rate-determining cycloreversion step, a prediction which was verified experimentally. Optimized conditions for both cycloaddition and cycloreversion steps were identified, and a brief substrate scope study for each was conducted. A complication for catalysis was found to be the slow hydrolysis of the ring-opened hydrazonium intermediates, which were shown to suffer from a competitive and irreversible cycloaddition with a second equivalent of norbornene. This problem was overcome by the strategic incorporation of a bridgehead methyl group on the norbornene ring, leading to the first demonstrated catalytic carbonyl-olefin metathesis of norbornene rings.
