Experimental and theoretical investigations into the unusual regioselectivity of 4,5-, 5,6-, and 6,7-indole aryne cycloadditions.

ABSTRACT: The 6,7-indolyne shows remarkable regioselectivity in its cycloaddition with 2-substituted furans. Electron-donating groups give predominantly the more sterically crowded product, while electron-withdrawing groups display the opposite regioselectivity. By contrast, 4,5- and 5,6-indolynes show no regioselectivity. Optimized electronic structure calculations using the M06-2X density functional and 6-311+G(2df,p) basis set revealed that the 6,7-indolynes are highly polar structures and that their cycloadditions have substantial electrophilic substitution character that leads to the observed preference for contrasteric products.

Total Synthesis of (±)-Cis-Trikentrin B via Intermolecular 6,7-Indole Aryne Cycloaddition and Stille Cross-Coupling.

Project description:An efficient total synthesis of the annulated indole natural product (±)-cis-trikentrin B was accomplished by means of a regioselectively generated 6,7-indole aryne cycloaddition via selective metal-halogen exchange from a 5,6,7-tribromoindole. The unaffected C-5 bromine was subsequently used for a Stille cross-coupling to install the butenyl side chain and complete the synthesis. This strategy provides rapid access into the trikentrins and the related herbindoles, and represents another application of this methodology to natural products total synthesis. The required 5,6,7-indole aryne precursor was prepared using the Leimgruber-Batcho indole synthesis.

Application of 6,7-indole aryne cycloaddition and Pd(0)-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reactions for the preparation of annulated indole libraries.

Project description:The construction of an unprecedented class of an indole-based library, namely, a 6,7-annulated-4-substituted 93-member indole library, using a strategic combination of 6,7-indolyne cycloaddition and cross-coupling reactions under both Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig conditions is described. This work represents the first example of library development that employs the indole aryne methodology. Annulated indoles, with the exception of only a few biologically active natural products (i.e., the trikentrins, herbindoles, teleocidins, and nodulisporic acids), have no representation in the PubChem or MLSMR databases. These structural entities are therefore predicted to have unique chemical property space characteristics and a high probability of exhibiting interesting biological activity.

Diels-Alder cycloadditions of N-arylpyrroles via aryne intermediates using diaryliodonium salts.

Project description:With a strategy of the formation of benzynes by using diaryliodonium salts, a cycloaddition reaction of N-arylpyrroles with benzynes was reported. A wide range of bridge-ring amines with various substituents have been synthesized in moderate to excellent yields (35-96%). Furthermore, with a catalytic amount of TsOH·H2O, these amines can be converted into the corresponding N-phenylamine derivatives easily, which are potentially useful in photosensitive dyes.

Regioselectivity of Diels-Alder Reactions Between 6,7-Dehydrobenzofuran and 2-Substituted Furans.

Project description:We describe the first report of the generation of 6,7-dehydrobenzofuran (6,7-benzofuranyne) from 6,7-dihalobenzofurans via metal-halogen exchange and elimination, in a manner similar to our previous work with 6,7-indole arynes. This benzofuranyne undergoes highly regioselective Diels-Alder cycloadditions with 2-substituted furans.

A Practical, Multi-gram Synthesis of (±)-Herbindole A, (±)-Herbindole B, and (±)-Herbindole C from a Common Intermediate via 6,7-Indole Aryne Cycloaddition and Pd(0)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions.

Project description:A practical, multi-gram 10-step synthesis of racemic herbindole A, B, and C from a common intermediate is described. The key step features a remarkably regioselective C-7 metal-halogen exchange and elimination from a Bartoli-generated N-t-butyldimethylsilyl-4,6,7-tribromo-5-methylindole scaffold to afford the 6,7-indole aryne. Cycloaddition with cyclopentadiene, oxidative cleavage, and Fujimoto reduction gave a common intermediate from which all three herbindoles were readily derived. A final Pd(0)-catalyzed Negishi and Stille cross-coupling reaction at the C-4 bromide afforded each of the herbindoles on a multigram scale.

Synthesis of pyrido[1,2-a]indole malonates and amines through aryne annulation.

Project description:Pyrido[1,2-a]indoles are known as medicinally and pharmaceutically important compounds, but there is a lack of efficient methods for their synthesis. We report a convenient and efficient route to these privileged structures starting from easily accessible 2-substituted pyridines and aryne precursors. A small library of compounds has been synthesized utilizing the developed method, affording variously substituted pyrido[1,2-a]indoles in moderate to good yields.

Synthesis of an unusual quinazoline alkaloid: theoretical and experimental investigations of its structural, electronic, molecular and biological properties.

Project description:An unusual quinazoline alkaloid (1) was obtained when 2-aminobenzaldehyde was refluxed with pyrrolidine in ethanol for 12 h. The synthesized compound was characterized using spectral data analysis augmented with X-ray and literature precedent. Single crystal analysis depicted four conformations differing slightly in bond angles and bond lengths. Compound 1 crystallizes in a triclinic crystal system with a P1̄ space group having two molecules within the unit cell. The experimentally obtained parameters were compared to those obtained theoretically, which depicted a good agreement. Using the DFT/B3LYP/6-31G (d,p) level of theory, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), vibrational (IR) and NMR analyses were carried out. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap allowed the calculation of chemical hardness, chemical inertness, electronegativity and the electrophilicity index of the molecule, which depicted its potential kinetic stability and reactivity. Prediction of activity spectra of the target compound revealed that compound 1 possesses notable antineoplastic activity with P a = 0.884. The molecule was therefore evaluated against various cancerous cell lines in an in vitro SRB assay which depicted that compound 1 possesses the highest growth inhibition activity against THP-1 cell lines with an IC50 of 7 μM.

Photocatalytic Indole Diels-Alder Cycloadditions Mediated by Heterogeneous Platinum-Modified Titanium Dioxide.

Project description:Indole alkaloids represent an important class of molecules, with many naturally occurring derivatives possessing significant biological activity. One area that requires further development in the synthesis of indole derivatives is the Diels-Alder reaction. In this work, we expand on our previously developed heterogeneous protocol for the [4+2] cycloaddition of indoles and electron-rich dienes mediated by platinum nanoparticles supported on titanium dioxide semiconductor particles (Pt(0.2%)@TiO2) with visible-light irradiation. This reaction proceeds with broad scope and is more efficient per incident photon than the previous homogeneous method, and the catalyst can be easily recycled and reused.

1,1,4,4-Tetracyanobutadiene-Functionalized Anthracenes: Regioselectivity of Cycloadditions in the Synthesis of Small Near-IR Dyes.

Project description:Two small 1,1,4,4-tetracyanobutadiene-functionalized chromophores were obtained by careful leverage of the regioselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction of tetracyanoethylene with anthracene-ynamide derivatives, inducing either a [2 + 2] or a [4 + 2] Diels-Alder process. DFT calculations unraveled the mechanism of the [2 + 2] cycloaddition-retroelectrocyclization reaction sequence with ynamides and elucidated the differing mechanisms in the two substrates. The synthesized dyes presented panchromatic absorption extending into the near-IR and far-red/near-IR photoluminescence in the solid state up to 1550 nm.
