Improved Synthesis of and Nucleophilic Addition to 2-Formyl-2-Cyclohexenone.

ABSTRACT: A preparation of 2-formyl-2-cyclohexenone in nearly quantitative yield and purity of approximately 95% is described. It is scalable and has been extended to the synthesis of the 5- and 7-membered ring homologs with comparable yields. Conditions have also been developed for the successful conjugate addition of dimethylmalonate to 2-formyl-2-cyclohexenone, in good and scalable yield (60%). This result has been extended to 5 other nucleophile classes, and the dimethylmalonate conjugate addition has been demonstrated with 2-formyl-2-cyclopentenone and 2-formyl-2-cycloheptenone.

Accelerated microdroplet synthesis of benzimidazoles by nucleophilic addition to protonated carboxylic acids.

Project description:We report a metal-free novel route for the accelerated synthesis of benzimidazole and its derivatives in the ambient atmosphere. The synthetic procedure involves 1,2-aromatic diamines and alkyl or aryl carboxylic acids reacting in electrostatically charged microdroplets generated using a nano-electrospray (nESI) ion source. The reactions are accelerated by orders of magnitude in comparison to the bulk. No other acid, base or catalyst is used. Online analysis of the microdroplet accelerated reaction products is performed by mass spectrometry. We provide evidence for an acid catalyzed reaction mechanism based on identification of the intermediate arylamides. Their dehydration to give benzimidazoles occurs in a subsequent thermally enhanced step. It is suggested that the extraordinary acidity at the droplet surface allows the carboxylic acid to function as a C-centered electrophile. Comparisons of this methodology with data from thin film and bulk synthesis lead to the proposal of three key steps in the reaction: (i) formation of an unusual reagent (protonated carboxylic acid) because of the extraordinary conditions at the droplet interface, (ii) accelerated bimolecular reaction because of limited solvation at the interface and (iii) thermally assisted elimination of water. Eleven examples are shown as evidence of the scope of this chemistry. The accelerated synthesis has been scaled-up to establish the substituent-dependence and to isolate products for NMR characterization.

Development of a Fluorogenic Reactivity Palette for the Study of Nucleophilic Addition Reactions Based on <i>meso</i>-Formyl BODIPY Dyes.

Project description:We describe herein a fluorescence-based assay to characterize and report on nucleophilic addition to carbonyl moieties and highlight the advantages a fluorescence-based assay and multiplex analysis can offer. The assay relies on the fluorogenic properties of meso-formyl boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes that become emissive following nucleophilic addition. A reactivity palette is assembled based on the increasing electrophilic character of five meso-formyl BODIPY compounds tested. We show that increasing rates of emission enhancement correlate with the decreasing electrophilic character of BODIPY dyes in the presence of an acid catalyst and a nucleophile. These results are consistent with the rate-limiting step involving activation of the electrophile. Increasing product formation is shown to correlate with the increasing electrophilic character of the BODIPY dyes, as expected based on thermodynamics. In addition to providing rates of reaction, analysis of the fluorescence parameters for the reaction mixtures, including emission quantum yields and fluorescence lifetimes, enables us to determine the extent of reactant conversion at equilibrium (in our case the estimated yield of a transient species) and the presence of different products, without the need for isolation. We anticipate that our reactivity palette approach, combined with the in-depth fluorescence analysis discussed herein, will provide guidelines toward developing fluorogenic assays of reactivity offering multiplex information, beyond fluorescence intensity.

Unusual Nucleophilic Addition of Grignard Reagents in the Synthesis of 4-Amino-pyrimidines.

Project description:Pyrimidines have always received considerable attention because of their importance in synthesis and elucidation of biochemical roles, in particular that of vitamin B1. Herein, we describe a reaction pathway in a Grignard reagent-based synthesis of substituted pyrimidines. A general synthesis of α-keto-2-methyl-4-amino pyrimidines and their C6-substituted analogues from 4-amino-5-cyano-2-methylpyrimidine is reported. The presence of the nitrile substituent in the starting material also results in an unusual reaction pathway leading to C6-substituted 1,2-dihydropyrimidines. Grignard reagents that give normal pyrimidine products under standard reaction conditions can be switched to give dihydropyrimidines by holding the reaction at 0 °C before quenching.

Nucleophilic Addition of Enolates to 1,4-Dehydrobenzene Diradicals Derived from Enediynes: Synthesis of Functionalized Aromatics.

Project description:Alkylation of aromatics and formation of a new C-C bond is usually achieved by the electrophilic attack of an activated carbon species on an electron-rich aromatic ring. Herein, we report an alternative method for alkylation of aromatics via nucleophilic addition of enolates of active methylene compounds to 1,4-dehydrobenzene diradicals derived from enediynes cyclodec-1,5-diyne-3-ene, benzo[3,4]-cyclodec-1,5-diyne-3-ene, and cyclohexeno[3,4]-cyclodec-1,5-diyne-3-ene. The benzo-substituted enediyne produces slightly higher yields of alkylation products than do the other two enediynes, but the differences are not substantial. The reaction produces a new C-C bonded aromatic alkylation product, which allows the construction of complex polyfunctional structures in a few steps. Moreover, this reaction provides solely C-arylated products, and no O-arylation products were observed.

Nucleophilic Addition of Benzylboronates to Activated Ketones.

Project description:A method has been developed for the addition of benzylboronic acid pinacol ester to activated ketones including trifluoromethyl ketones in good yields. The use of DABCO as an additive was found to enhance the rate and efficiency of this reaction. In reactions of ketones with a second carbonyl group present such as an ester or amide, good chemoselectivity for the ketone was observed. Competition experiments suggest an electrophile relative reactivity order of CF2H ketone > CF3 ketone > aldehyde under these reaction conditions.

Synthesis of a Fluorescent Acridone using a Grignard Addition, Oxidation, and Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution Reaction Sequence.

Project description:A three-pot synthesis oriented for an undergraduate organic chemistry laboratory was developed to construct a fluorescent acridone molecule. This laboratory experiment utilizes Grignard addition to an aldehyde, alcohol oxidation, and iterative nucleophilic aromatic substitution steps to produce the final product. Each of the intermediates and the acridone product of the synthesis are analyzed by common techniques available in most undergraduate chemistry laboratories, such as melting point, TLC, IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Yields for each transformation in the synthesis are generally moderately low to good (20-90%) and nearly all of the students (>90%) who attempted the synthesis were able to produce the final acridone product.

Stereocontrolled synthesis of vicinally functionalized piperidines by nucleophilic ?-addition of alkyllithiums to ?-aryl substituted piperidine enecarbamates.

Project description:Substituted piperidines are emerging as important medicinally-active structural motifs. Here, we report highly stereoselective carbolithiation reactions of ?-aryl piperidine enecarbamates that offer direct access to vicinally-substituted piperidine compounds. We have also demonstrated that the carbanion intermediates can be trapped with a carbon electrophile.

Synthesis of the bis(cyclohexenone) core of (-)-lomaiviticin A.

Project description:(-)-Lomaiviticin A is a complex C 2-symmetric bacterial metabolite comprising two diazotetrahydrobenzo[b]fluorene (diazofluorene) residues and four 2,6-dideoxy glycosides, α-l-oleandrose and N,N-dimethyl-β-l-pyrrolosamine. The two halves of lomaiviticin A are linked by a single carbon-carbon bond oriented syn with respect to the oleandrose residues. While many advances toward the synthesis of lomaiviticin A have been reported, including synthesis of the aglycon, a route to the bis(cyclohexenone) core bearing any of the carbohydrate residues has not been disclosed. Here we describe a short route to a core structure of lomaiviticin A bearing two α-l-oleandrose residues. The synthetic route features a Stille coupling to form the conjoining carbon-carbon bond of the target and a double reductive transposition to establish the correct stereochemistry at this bond. Two synthetic routes were developed to elaborate the reductive transposition product to the bis(cyclohexenone) target. The more efficient pathway features an interrupted Barton vinyl iodide synthesis followed by oxidative elimination of iodide to efficiently establish the enone functionalities in the target. The bis(cyclohexenone) product may find use in a synthesis of lomaiviticin A itself.
