Sustainable synthesis of 3-substituted phthalides via a catalytic one-pot cascade strategy from 2-formylbenzoic acid with ?-keto acids in glycerol.

ABSTRACT: Background: Phthalides are privileged constituents of numerous pharmaceuticals, natural products and agrochemicals and exhibit several biological and therapeutic activities. Therefore, the development of new, facile, and sustainable strategies for the construction of these moieties is highly desired. Results: A broad substrate scope for ?-keto acids was found to be strongly compatible with this catalytic process, affording a wide variety of 3-substituted phthalides in good to excellent yields. Conclusion: A concise and efficient synthesis strategy of 3-substituted phthalides from 2-formylbenzoic acid and ?-keto acids via a catalytic one-pot cascade reaction in glycerol has been accomplished.

Aldo-keto reductases in which the conserved catalytic histidine is substituted.

Project description:Aldo-keto reductases (AKRs) are a major superfamily of monomeric NADPH-dependent carbonyl oxidoreductases. They are characterized by an (alpha/beta)(8)-barrel structure, which at its base contains a conserved catalytic tetrad of Tyr, Lys, His and Asp. Two AKR subfamilies contain other residues substituted for the catalytic His and perform different functions. First, the steroid 5beta-reductase (AKR1D1), which reduces CC double bonds instead of carbonyl groups, has a Glu substituted for His. Second, the Kvbeta subunits (AKR6A3, AKR6A5 and AKR6A9) which modulate opening of the voltage-gated potassium channel (Kv1) by oxidizing NADPH, have an Asn substituted for the His. Previously, we noted that conserved catalytic residues in AKRs perform similar functions in the short-chain dehydrogenases (SDRs). With the availability of crystal structures of AKR1D1 and two SDRs that catalyze double-bond reduction reactions, Digitalis steroid 5beta-reductase and 2,4-dienoyl-CoA reductase, we have compared their active sites to outline the features that govern whether 1,2-, 1,4- or 1,6-hydride transfer occurs.

A quadruple cascade protocol for the one-pot synthesis of fully-substituted hexahydroisoindolinones from simple substrates.

Project description:A new and efficient synthetic method to obtain fully-substituted hexahydroisoindolinones was developed by using bifunctional tertiary amine-thioureas as powerful catalysts. As far as we know, there is no efficient synthetic method developed toward fully-substituted hexahydroisoindolinones. The products were obtained in good yield and diastereoselectivity. The one-pot cascade quadruple protocol features readily available starting materials, simple manipulation, mild conditions and good atom economy.

A One-Pot Tandem Strategy in Catalytic Asymmetric Vinylogous Aldol Reaction of Homoallylic Alcohols.

Project description:Reported is a rationally-designed one-pot sequential strategy that allows homoallylic alcohols to be employed in a catalytic, asymmetric, direct vinylogous aldol reaction with a series of activated acyclic ketones, including trifluoromethyl ketones, ?-ketoesters, and ?-keto phosphonates, in high yields (up to 95%) with excellent regio- and enantio-selectivity (up to 99% ee). This modular combination, including Jones oxidation and asymmetric organocatalysis, has satisfactory compatibility and reliability even at a 20 mmol scale, albeit without intermediary purification.

One-pot directed alkylation/deprotection strategy for the synthesis of substituted pyrrole[3,4-d]pyridazinones.

Project description:In the course of an SAR study of pyrrole[3,4-d]pyridazinones we optimized conditions for a one pot directed lithiation / alkylation reaction that also promoted in situ cleavage of a Boc-protecting group on the pyrrole ring. The efficiency of the process allowed access to a number of substituted analogues of interest as possible antitumor agents.

One-Pot, Three-Aryne Cascade Strategy for Naphthalene Formation from 1,3-Diynes and 1,2-Benzdiyne Equivalents.

Project description:Here we disclose a cascade strategy for naphthyne formation that capitalizes on the traditional benzyne generation (i.e., from an ortho-silyl aryl triflate) and the thermal hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction. In this transformation, three distinct aryne species work in tandem, two of which can be formally considered as a 1,2-benzidyne, and each undergoes a different type of trapping event. Many examples were explored by varying the naphthyne capture chemistry as well as the 1,2-benzdiyne equivalent. This strategy enables rapid construction of various naphthalene products and has potential for the synthesis of extended polycyclic arenes.

Catalytic enantioselective one-pot aminoborylation of aldehydes: a strategy for construction of nonracemic ?-amino boronates.

Project description:We report a strategy for the conversion of aldehydes to enantiomerically enriched ?-amino boronates through the intermediacy of in situ-generated silylimines. This transformation is brought about by Pt-catalyzed asymmetric addition of B2(pin)2 across the imine double bond. An attractive feature of the intermediate diboration adduct is that it can be acylated directly and provides convenient access to important N-acyl ?-amino boronic ester derivatives.

Rhodium(iii)-catalyzed synthesis of phthalides by cascade addition and cyclization of benzimidates with aldehydes.

Project description:We herein report the Rh(iii)-catalyzed C-H bond activation and addition of benzimidates to aldehydes to afford biologically important phthalides in a single step. The imidate is a novel and unexplored directing group that not only enables C-H bond activation and addition to aldehydes, but also serves to capture the reversibly formed alcohol intermediate. The reaction shows broad scope with a high level of functional group compatibility and is applicable to both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Pharmaceutically Active ?-Aminobutyric Acids Using a Tailor-Made Artificial Michaelase in One-Pot Cascade Reactions.

Project description:Chiral ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA) analogues represent abundantly prescribed drugs, which are broadly applied as anticonvulsants, as antidepressants, and for the treatment of neuropathic pain. Here we report a one-pot two-step biocatalytic cascade route for synthesis of the pharmaceutically relevant enantiomers of ?-nitrobutyric acids, starting from simple precursors (acetaldehyde and nitroalkenes), using a tailor-made highly enantioselective artificial "Michaelase" (4-oxalocrotonate tautomerase mutant L8Y/M45Y/F50A), an aldehyde dehydrogenase with a broad non-natural substrate scope, and a cofactor recycling system. We also report a three-step chemoenzymatic cascade route for the efficient chemical reduction of enzymatically prepared ?-nitrobutyric acids into GABA analogues in one pot, achieving high enantiopurity (e.r. up to 99:1) and high overall yields (up to 70%). This chemoenzymatic methodology offers a step-economic alternative route to important pharmaceutically active GABA analogues, and highlights the exciting opportunities available for combining chemocatalysts, natural enzymes, and designed artificial biocatalysts in multistep syntheses.

Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of 4- and 5-Substituted o-(Octanesulfonamido)benzoic Acids as Inhibitors of Glycerol-3-Phosphate Acyltransferase.

Project description:Despite a rising demand for anti-obesity therapeutics, few effective pharmacological options are clinically available that target the synthesis and accumulation of body fat. Moderate inhibition of mammalian glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) with 2-(alkanesulfonamido)benzoic acids has recently been described in vitro, accompanied by promising weight loss in vivo. In silico docking studies with 2-(octanesulfonamido)benzoic acid modeled into the active site of squash GPAT revealed an unoccupied volume lined with hydrophobic residues proximal to C-4 and C-5 of the benzoic acid ring. In an effort to produce more potent GPAT inhibitors, a series of 4- and 5-substituted analogs were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for inhibitory activity. In general, compounds containing hydrophobic substituents at the 4- and 5-positions, such as biphenyl and alkylphenyl hydrocarbons, exhibited an improved inhibitory activity against GPAT in vitro. The most active compound, 4-([1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carbonyl)-2-(octanesulfonamido)benzoic acid, demonstrated an IC50 of 8.5 µM and represents the best GPAT inhibitor discovered to date. Conversely, further substitution with hydroxyl or fluoro groups, led to a 3-fold decrease in activity. These results are consistent with the presence of a hydrophobic pocket and may support the binding model as a potential tool for developing more potent inhibitors.
