Conversion of Methyl Ketones and Methyl Sulfones into ?-Deutero-?,?-Difluoromethyl Ketones and ?-Deutero-?,?-Difluoromethyl Sulfones in Three Synthetic Steps.

ABSTRACT: Deuterodifluoromethyl ketones and sulfones were assembled in three synthetic steps from methyl ketones and sulfones, respectively. The key synthetic transformation is the deuteration of the difluorocarbanion generated by the release of trifluoroacetate from highly ?-fluorinated gem-diols. High levels of deuterium on the "CF2D" group were routinely observed. This strategy is mild and versatile and it can be applied to both ketones and sulfones without additional concerns of over- or under-fluorination. Additional examples address issues of over-deuteration when compounds with other acidic protons are subjected to the reaction conditions. This process not only demonstrates a new method to install a "CF2D" group but also extends the scope of trifluoroacetate release to sulfones.

Organocatalytic Decarboxylative Cyanomethylation of Difluoromethyl and Trifluoromethyl Ketones.

Project description:An efficient organocatalytic method for the synthesis of difluoromethyl and trifluoromethyl substituted β-hydroxynitriles is introduced. The decarboxylative cyanomethylation of fluorinated ketones with readily available cyanoacetic acid gives a variety of tertiary alcohols in high yields and without concomitant water elimination. The reaction occurs in the presence of catalytic amounts of triethylamine, can be upscaled and applied to chlorofluoromethyl ketones and difluoromethyl ketimines.

Metal-free hydrosulfonylation of α,β-unsaturated ketones: synthesis and application of γ-keto sulfones.

Project description:γ-Keto sulfones are versatile building blocks and valuable intermediates in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry. Motivated by their excellent properties, we herein report a green, convenient, metal-free hydrosulfonylation method for a variety of ynones, vinyl ketones, and sodium sulfinates in the absence of stoichiometric oxidants. This operationally simple protocol provides straightforward and practical access to a wide range of γ-keto sulfones with broad functional group tolerance from easily available starting materials. Moreover, the β,γ-unsaturated keto sulfones could further react with 2,3-butadienoate to generate cyclopentenes in phosphine-mediated [3 + 2] cycloaddition.

Synthesis of ?-halo-?,?-difluoromethyl ketones by a trifluoroacetate release/halogenation protocol.

Project description:Three series of ?-halo-?,?-difluoromethyl ketones are prepared from highly ?-fluorinated gem-diols by exploiting the facile release of trifluoroacetate, followed by immediate trapping of the liberated ?,?-difluoroenolate with an electrophilic chlorine, bromine, or iodine source. The products are typically isolated in good yields, even in the case of sensitive, ?-iodo-?,?-difluoromethyl ketones. Also, we demonstrate that an ?-iodo-?,?-difluoromethyl ketone will participate in a copper-promoted reaction to forge a new carbon-carbon bond.

One-Pot Conversion of Allylic Alcohols to ?-Methyl Ketones via Iron-Catalyzed Isomerization-Methylation.

Project description:A one-pot iron-catalyzed conversion of allylic alcohols to ?-methyl ketones has been developed. This isomerization-methylation strategy utilized a (cyclopentadienone)iron(0) carbonyl complex as precatalyst and methanol as the C1 source. A diverse range of allylic alcohols undergoes isomerization-methylation to form ?-methyl ketones in good isolated yields (up to 84% isolated yield).

Difluoromethyl ketones: Potent inhibitors of wild type and carbamate-insensitive G119S mutant Anopheles gambiae acetylcholinesterase.

Project description:Malaria is a devastating disease in sub-Saharan Africa, and current vector control measures are threatened by emerging resistance mechanisms. With the goal of developing new, selective, resistance-breaking insecticides we explored ?-fluorinated methyl ketones as reversible covalent inhibitors of Anopheles gambiae acetylcholinesterase (AgAChE). Trifluoromethyl ketones 5 demonstrated remarkable volatility in microtiter plate assays, but 5c,e-h exhibited potent (1-100 nM) inhibition of wild type (WT) AgAChE and weak inhibition of resistant mutant G119S mutant AgAChE. Fluoromethyl ketones 10c-i exhibited submicromolar to micromolar inhibition of WT AgAChE, but again only weakly inhibited G119S AgAChE. Interestingly, difluoromethyl ketone inhibitors 9c and 9g had single digit nanomolar inhibition of WT AgAChE, and 9g had excellent potency against G119S AgAChE. Approach to steady-state inhibition was quite slow, but after 23 h incubation an IC50 value of 25.1 ± 1.2 nM was measured. We attribute the slow, tight-binding G119S AgAChE inhibition of 9g to a balance of steric size and electrophilicity. However, toxicities of 5g, 9g, and 10g to adult A. gambiae in tarsal contact, fumigation, and injection assays were lower than expected based on WT AgAChE inhibition potency and volatility. Potential toxicity-limiting factors are discussed.

Synthetic exploration of sulfinyl radicals using sulfinyl sulfones.

Project description:Sulfinyl radicals - one of the fundamental classes of S-centered radicals - have eluded synthetic application in organic chemistry for over 60 years, despite their potential to assemble valuable sulfoxide compounds. Here we report the successful generation and use of sulfinyl radicals in a dual radical addition/radical coupling with unsaturated hydrocarbons, where readily-accessed sulfinyl sulfones serve as the sulfinyl radical precursor. The strategy provides an entry to a variety of previously inaccessible linear and cyclic disulfurized adducts in a single step, and demonstrates tolerance to an extensive range of hydrocarbons and functional groups. Experimental and theoretical mechanistic investigations suggest that these reactions proceed through sequential sulfonyl and sulfinyl radical addition.

Agonists of the ?-aminobutyric acid type B (GABAB) receptor derived from ?-hydroxy and ?-amino difluoromethyl ketones.

Project description:?-Hydroxy difluoromethyl ketones represent the newest class of agonists of the GABA-B receptor, and they are structurally distinct from all other known agonists at this receptor because they do not display the carboxylic acid or amino group of ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA). In this report, the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of additional analogues of ?-hydroxy difluoromethyl ketones characterized the critical nature of the substituted aromatic group on the lead compound. The importance of these new data is interpreted by docking studies using the X-ray structure of the GABA-B receptor. Moreover, we also report that the synthesis and biological evaluation of ?-amino difluoromethyl ketones provided the most potent compound across these two series.

Enantioselective three-component aminomethylation of α-diazo ketones with alcohols and 1,3,5-triazines.

Project description:Enantioselective α-aminomethylation of carbonyl compounds constitutes a powerful protocol for introducing aminomethyl groups to simple organic molecules. However, current strategies rely on nucleophile-based enantioselective activation with inherently activated substrates only, and enantioselective protocol based on the activation of in situ-generated unstable formaldimines remains elusive, probably owing to their unstable nature and the lack of steric environment for efficient stereocontrols. Here, based on a rhodium/chiral phosphoric acid cooperative catalysis, we achieved an enantioselective three-component reaction of α-diazo ketones with alcohols and 1,3,5-triazines. A dual hydrogen bonding between the chiral phosphoric acid catalyst and two distinct active intermediates was proposed to be crucial for the efficient electrophile-based enantiocontrol. A series of chiral β-amino-α-hydroxy ketones including those derived from simple aliphatic alcohols, allylic alcohol, propargyl alcohol, complicated natural alcohols and water could all be prepared in high efficiency and enantioselectivity.

Ca(OH)2-Catalyzed Condensation of Aldehydes with Methyl ketones in Dilute Aqueous Ethanol: A Comprehensive Access to α,β-Unsaturated Ketones.

Project description:Cheap, abundant but seldom-employed Ca(OH)2 was found to be an excellent low-loading (5-10 mol%) catalyst for Claisen-Schmidt condensation of aldehydes with methyl ketones under mild conditions. It was interesting that dilute aqueous ethanol (20 v/v%) was unexpectedly discovered to be the optimal solvent. The reaction was scalable at least to 100 mmol and calcium could be precipitated by CO2 and removed by filtration. Evaporation of solvent directly afforded the product in the excellent 96% yield with high purity, as confirmed by its (1)H NMR spectrum.
