Regioselective alcoholysis of silychristin acetates catalyzed by lipases.

ABSTRACT: A panel of lipases was screened for the selective acetylation and alcoholysis of silychristin and silychristin peracetate, respectively. Acetylation at primary alcoholic group (C-22) of silychristin was accomplished by lipase PS (Pseudomonas cepacia) immobilized on diatomite using vinyl acetate as an acetyl donor, whereas selective deacetylation of 22-O-acetyl silychristin was accomplished by Novozym 435 in methyl tert-butyl ether/ n-butanol. Both of these reactions occurred without diastereomeric discrimination of silychristin A and B. Both of these enzymes were found to be capable to regioselective deacetylation of hexaacetyl silychristin to afford penta-, tetra- and tri-acetyl derivatives, which could be obtained as pure synthons for further selective modifications of the parent molecule.

A Study on the Regioselective Acetylation of Flavonoid Aglycons Catalyzed by Immobilized Lipases.

Project description:This study aimed to explore the capacity of immobilized lipases on the acetylation of six aglycon flavonoids, namely myricetin, quercetin, luteolin, naringenin, fisetin and morin. For this purpose, lipase B from Candida antarctica (CaLB) and lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) were immobilized onto the surface of ZnOFe nanoparticles derived from an aqueous olive leaf extract. Various factors affecting the conversion of substrates and the formation of monoesterified and diesterified products, such as the amount of biocatalyst and the molar ratio of the substrates and reaction solvents were investigated. Both CaLB and TLL-ZnOFe achieved 100% conversion yield of naringenin to naringenin acetate after 72 h of reaction time, while TLL-ZnOFe achieved higher conversion yields of quercetin, morin and fisetin (73, 85 and 72% respectively). Notably, CaLB-ZnOFe displayed significantly lower conversion yields for morin compared with TLL-ZnOFe. Molecular docking analysis was used to elucidate this discrepancy, and it was revealed that the position of the hydroxyl groups of the B ring on morin introduced hindrances on the active site of CaLB. Finally, selected flavonoid esters showed significantly higher antimicrobial activity compared with the original compound. This work indicated that these lipase-based nanobiocatalysts can be successfully applied to produce lipophilic derivatives of aglycon flavonoids with improved antimicrobial activity.

Gold-catalyzed intramolecular allylation of silyl alkynes induced by silane alcoholysis.

Project description:The activation of alkynyl allyl silanes with a cationic gold catalyst in the presence of alcohols provides vinyl silanes that contain the allyl group at the beta-position and the alkoxysilyl group in cis-orientation. The bond reorganization process is most consistent with the involvement of a carbocationic intermediate, which undergoes a nucleophilic attack by an alcohol selectively at the silicon center. The cis-vinyl silyl ether products can be further elaborated by ring-closing and cross metathesis to form more substituted 1,4-dienyl silanes.

Alcoholysis of Furfuryl Alcohol to Ethyl Levulinate Catalyzed by a Deep Eutectic Solvent.

Project description:In this study, the alcoholysis of furfuryl alcohol (FA) into ethyl levulinate (EL) using a deep eutectic solvent (DES) composed of choline chloride (ChCl) and ethanol was investigated by experiments and calculations. Experimental results reveal that the addition of 5-sulfonic acid salicylic acid (5-SSA) can catalyze the alcoholysis of FA to produce EL. The combined presence of ChCl and 5-SSA significantly improved the selectivity for EL. The mechanism of the alcoholysis of FA to EL in acidic DES was investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations in Gaussian 03. It was found that hydrogen-bond acceptor ChCl is coupled with hydrogen-bond donor ethanol to form a structure similar to HCl and ethoxy, which facilitates the alcoholysis of FA into EL.

Palladium-Catalyzed Regioselective Arylation of Unprotected Allylamines.

Project description:Palladium-catalyzed organometallic transformations of free amines are often unsuccessful due to side reactions, such as oxidation, that can occur. However, the ability to furnish the free amine products from these reactions is important for improving the utility and sustainability of these processes, especially for accessing their potential as medicinal and agrochemical agents. Notably, the 3,3-diarylallylamine motif is prevalent in a variety of biologically relevant structures, yet there are few catalytic approaches to their synthesis, and none involving the free amine. Herein, we describe a simple protocol for the arylation of cinnamylamines and the diarylation of terminal allylamines to generate a diverse group of 3,3-diarylallylamine products using a PdII precatalyst. Key features of the method are the ability to access relatively mild conditions that facilitate a broad substrate scope as well as direct diarylation of terminal allylamine substrates. In addition, several complex and therapeutically relevant molecules are included to demonstrate the utility of the transformation.

Cobalt-catalyzed regioselective stereoconvergent Markovnikov 1,2-hydrosilylation of conjugated dienes.

Project description:We report the first stereoconvergent Markovnikov 1,2-hydrosilylation of conjugated dienes using catalysts generated from bench-stable Co(acac)2 and phosphine ligands. A wide range of E/Z-dienes underwent this Markovnikov 1,2-hydrosilylation in a stereoconvergent manner, affording (E)-allylsilanes in high isolated yields with high stereoselectivities (E/Z = >99?:?1) and high regioselectivities (b/l up to > 99?:?1). Mechanistic studies revealed that this stereoconvergence stems from a ?-?-? isomerization of an allylcobalt species generated by the 1,4-hydrometalation of Z-dienes. In addition, a cobalt catalyst that can only catalyze the hydrosilylation of the E-isomer of an (E/Z)-diene was identified, which allows the separation of the (Z)-isomer from an isomeric mixture of (E/Z)-dienes. Furthermore, asymmetric hydrosilylation of (E)-1-aryl-1,3-dienes was studied with Co(acac)2/(R)-difluorphos and good enantioselectivities (er up to 90?:?10) were obtained.

Iron-Catalyzed Borylation of Propargylic Acetates for the Synthesis of Multisubstituted Allenylboronates.

Project description:A novel iron-catalyzed borylation of propargylic acetates leading to allenylboronates has been developed. The method allows the preparation of a variety of di-, tri- and tetrasubstituted allenylboronates at room temperature with good functional group compatibility. Stereochemical studies show that an anti-SN 2' displacement of acetate by boron occurs; this also allows transfer of chirality to yield enantiomerically enriched allenylboronates. The synthetic utility of this protocol was further substantiated by transformations of the obtained allenylboronates including oxidation and propargylation.

Iridium-catalyzed regioselective and enantioselective allylation of trimethylsiloxyfuran.

Project description:We report the regio- and enantioselective allylation of an ester enolate, trimethylsiloxyfuran. This enolate reacts at the 3-position with linear aromatic allylic carbonates or aliphatic allylic benzoates to form the branched substitution products in the presence of a metallacyclic iridium catalyst. This process provides access to synthetically important 3-substituted butenolides in enantioenriched form. Stoichiometric reactions of the allyliridium intermediate suggest that the trimethylsiloxyfuran is activated by the carboxylate leaving group.

Enantio- and regioselective CuH-catalyzed hydroamination of alkenes.

Project description:A highly enantio- and regioselective copper-catalyzed hydroamination reaction of alkenes has been developed using diethoxymethylsilane and esters of hydroxylamines. The process tolerates a wide variety of substituted styrenes, including trans-, cis-, and ?,?-disubstituted styrenes, to yield ?-branched amines. In addition, aliphatic alkenes coupled to generate exclusively the anti-Markovnikov hydroamination products.

Regioselective gold-catalyzed oxidative C-N bond formation.

Project description:A novel protocol for the regioselective intermolecular amination of various arenes has been developed. By using an I(III) oxidant in the presence of a Au(I) catalyst, a direct and novel route for regioselectively accessing a variety of substituted aniline moieties has been achieved with yields as high as 90%. Mechanistic insight suggests that regioselectivity can be predicted based on electrophilic aromatic metalation patterns.
