Stereodivergent approach to the avermectins based on "super silyl" directed aldol reactions.

ABSTRACT: A stereodivergent approach to the spiroketal fragment of the avermectins is described. The strategy utilizes a sequence of three aldol reactions directed by the tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl "super silyl" group. Central to this strategy is that each aldol reaction can be controlled to allow access to either diastereomer in high stereoselectivity, thereby affording 16 stereoisomers along the same linear skeleton. The aldol products can be transformed into spiroketals, including an advanced intermediate in the total synthesis of avermectin A1a.

Super silyl stereo-directing groups for complete 1,5-syn and -anti stereoselectivities in the aldol reactions of beta-siloxy methyl ketones with aldehydes.

Project description:In this communication, we report that substrate-controlled 1,5-syn and -anti stereoinduction in the aldol reaction of beta-tris(trialkylsilyl)siloxy methyl ketones can be achieved with high diastereoselectivities. Tris(trialkylsilyl)silyl groups are easily prepared and play an important role in the selectivities of these reactions. Furthermore, all of the 1,3,5-triol stereoisomers can easily be prepared from beta-siloxy methyl ketones in no more than three steps.

A catalytic enantioselective stereodivergent aldol reaction.

Project description:The aldol reaction is among the most powerful and strategically important carbon-carbon bond-forming transformations in organic chemistry. The importance of the aldol reaction in constructing chiral building blocks for complex small-molecule synthesis has spurred continuous efforts toward the development of direct catalytic variants. The realization of a general catalytic aldol reaction with control over both the relative and absolute configurations of the newly formed stereogenic centers has been a longstanding goal in the field. Here, we report a decarboxylative aldol reaction that provides access to all four possible stereoisomers of the aldol product in one step from identical reactants. The mild reaction can be carried out on a large scale in an open flask, and generates CO2 as the only by-product. The method tolerates a broad substrate scope and generates chiral β-hydroxy thioester products with substantial downstream utility.

Chiral phosphoramide-catalyzed, enantioselective, directed cross-aldol reactions of aldehydes.

Project description:Catalytic, enantioselective, directed cross-aldol reactions of aldehydes are described. The addition of isobutyraldehyde trichlorosilyl enolate 2 to various aldehydes in the presence of 10 mol % bisphosphoramide 4 provides aldol products in high yields with moderate to good enantioselectivities. The reaction works well with a wide range of aromatic, olefinic, and aliphatic aldehydes. Enantioselectivities are highly dependent on the electronic nature of the aldehyde substituent. Hammett studies reveal that enantioselectivity increases as aldehydes become either more electron rich or more electron poor.

A highly diastereoselective "super silyl" governed aldol reaction: synthesis of α,β-dioxyaldehydes and 1,2,3-triols.

Project description:A highly diastereoselective approach for the synthesis of protected α,β-dioxyaldehydes derived from (Z)-tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl "super silyl" enol ethers is described. A general and highly syn-stereoselective aldol reaction directed by the "super silyl" group catalyzed by triflimide (HNTf2) is developed providing α,β-dioxyaldehydes and 1,2,3-triol fragments which can be a useful platform for the elaboration of natural and unnatural sugar derivatives.

Investigating ionic effects applied to water based organocatalysed aldol reactions.

Project description:Saturated aqueous solutions of various common salts were examined for their effect on aqueous aldol reactions catalysted by a highly active C(2)-symmetric diprolinamide organocatalyst developed in our laboratory. With respect to the aldol reaction between cyclohexanone and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde, deionised water was always a superior medium to salt solutions though some correlation to increasing anion size and depression in enantiomeric excess could be observed. Additionally, the complete inhibition of catalyst activity observed when employing tap water could be alleviated by the inclusion of ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) into the aqueous media prior to reaction initiation. Extension of these reaction conditions demonstrated that these ionic effects vary on a case-to-case basis depending on the ketone/aldehyde combination.

Histidine-based copper tetrapeptides as enantioselective catalysts for aldol reactions.

Project description:Copper(ii)-peptides are widely used as industrial catalysts such as in the aerobic oxidation of organic molecules, formation of new C-H bonds and in the azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The length of peptides and the effect of adding copper metal into peptides were questioned in their field of applications. Five novel histidine-based tetrapeptides with the sequences HAAD (P1), HAFD (P2), HAVD (P3), AGHD (P4) and PGHD (P5) were synthesized using the solid phase peptide scheme and analysed with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with percentage purities as high as 99.5%. All the peptides were positively charged (+1) and the molecular weight calculated from m/z values of MS results coincided with the theoretical molecular weight of the peptides. Copper(ii)-peptides derived from these peptides and copper(ii) acetate monohydrate (CuP1-CuP5) in a 1 : 2 ratio was synthesised, purified and characterised by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), ultraviolet-fluorescence spectroscopy (fluorescence) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD) and optical rotation polarimetry. It provided the necessary information on the secondary structure and the successful binding of copper(ii) to the specific amino acids, hence leading to the putative geometry of copper(ii)-peptides and the difference in the chirality of amino acids, peptides and copper(ii)-peptides. The catalytic activities of the synthesised complexes were evaluated. CuP1 & CuP3 catalysed both the asymmetric aldol reactions with high enantioselectivity of p-nitrobenzaldehyde with cyclohexanone (% ee = 87.3 & 80.3, respectively) and of p-anisaldehyde with cyclohexanone (% ee = 95.5 & 90.9, respectively).

Enantioselective Stereodivergent Nucleophile-Dependent Isothiourea-Catalysed Domino Reactions.

Project description:α,β-Unsaturated acyl ammoniums generated from the reaction of α,β-unsaturated 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) esters bearing a pendent enone with an isothiourea organocatalyst are versatile intermediates in a range of enantioselective nucleophile-dependent domino processes to form complex products of diverse topology with excellent stereoselectivity. Use of either 1,3-dicarbonyls, acyl benzothiazoles, or acyl benzimidazoles as nucleophiles allows three distinct, diastereodivergent domino reaction pathways to be accessed to form various fused polycyclic cores containing multiple contiguous stereocentres.

Comparison of L-Threonine Aldolase Variants in the Aldol and Retro-Aldol Reactions.

Project description:Most of biochemical and mutagenesis studies performed with L-threonine aldolases were done with respect to natural activity, the cleavage of L-threonine and sometimes L-β-phenylserine. However, the properties of variants and the impact of mutations on the product synthesis are more interesting from an applications point of view. Here we performed site-directed mutagenesis of active site residues of L-threonine aldolase from Aeromonas jandaei to analyze their impact on the retro-aldol activity and on the aldol synthesis of L-β-phenylserine and L-α-alkyl-β-phenylserines. Consequently, reduced retro-aldol activity upon mutation of catalytically important residues led to increased conversions and diastereoselectivities in the synthetic direction. Thus, L-β-phenylserine can be produced with conversions up to 60% and d.e.'s up to 80% (syn) under kinetic control. Furthermorem, the donor specificity of L-threonine aldolase was increased upon mutation of active site residues, which enlarged the pocket size for an efficient binding and stabilization of donor molecules in the active site. This study broadens the knowledge about L-threonine aldolase catalyzed reactions and improves the synthetic protocols for the biocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of unnatural amino acids.
