Methods for the Synthesis of Functionalized Pentacarboxycyclopentadienes.

ABSTRACT: Protocols for the synthesis of diverse pentacarboxycyclopentadienes are described. Starting from readily available pentacarbomethoxycyclopentadiene, transesterification offers single-step access to aliphatic ester derivatives, while treatment with amines produces mono- or diamides. For less nucleophilic alcohols, an alternative procedure involving the in situ generation and esterification of a putative cyclopentadiene pentaacid chloride has been developed.

Synthesis of Functionalized Cannabilactones.

Project description:A new approach to synthesize cannabilactones using Suzuki cross-coupling reaction followed by one-step demethylation-cyclization is presented. The two key cannabilactone prototypes AM1710 and AM1714 were obtained selectively in high overall yields and in a lesser number of synthetic steps when compared to our earlier synthesis. The new approach expedited the synthesis of cannabilactone analogs with structural modifications at the four potential pharmacophoric regions.

Butenolide Synthesis from Functionalized Cyclopropenones.

Project description:A general method to synthesize substituted butenolides from hydroxymethylcyclopropenones is reported. Functionalized cyclopropenones undergo ring-opening reactions with catalytic amounts of phosphine, forming reactive ketene ylides. These intermediates can be trapped by pendant hydroxy groups to afford target butenolide scaffolds. The reaction proceeds efficiently in diverse solvents and with low catalyst loadings. Importantly, the cyclization is tolerant of a broad range of functional groups, yielding a variety of ?- and ?-substituted butenolides.

Synthesis of Mixed-Functionalized Tetraacylgermanes.

Project description:Tetraacylgermanes are known as highly efficient photoinitiators. Herein, the synthesis of mixed tetraacylgermanes 4 a-c and 6 a-e with a nonsymmetric substitution pattern is presented. Germenolates are crucial intermediates of these new synthetic protocols. The synthesized compounds show increased solubility compared with symmetrically substituted tetraacylgermanes 1 a-d. Moreover, these mixed derivatives reveal broadened n-π* absorption bands, which enhance their photoactivity. Higher absorption of these new compounds at wavelengths above 450 nm causes efficient photobleaching when using an LED emitting at 470 nm. The quantum yields are in the range of 0.15-0.57, depending on the nature of the aroyl substituents. On the basis of these properties, mixed-functionalized tetraacylgermanes serve as ideal photoinitiators in various applications, especially in those requiring high penetration depth. The synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, NMR and CIDNP spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectroscopy, photolysis experiments, and X-ray crystallography. The CIDNP data suggest that the germyl radicals generated from the new tetraacylgermanes preferentially add to the tail of the monomer butyl acrylate. In the case of 6 a-e only the mesitoyl groups are cleaved off, whereas for 4 a-c both the mesitoyl and the aroyl group are subject to α-cleavage.

Concise Synthesis of Functionalized Benzocyclobutenones.

Project description:A concise approach to access functionalized benzocyclobutenones from 3-halophenol derivatives is described. This modified synthesis employs a [2+2] cycloaddition between benzynes generated from dehydrohalogenation of aryl halides using LiTMP and acetaldehyde enolate generated from n-BuLi and THF, followed by oxidation of the benzocyclobutenol intermediates to provide benzocyclobutenones. The [2+2] reaction can be run on a 10-gram scale with an increased yield. A number of functional groups including alkenes and alkynes are tolerated. Coupling of benzynes with ketene silyl acetals to give 8-substituted benzocyclobutenones is also demonstrated.

Evaluating methods to create protein functionalized catanionic vesicles.

Project description:Catanionic surfactant vesicles (SVs) composed of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) and cetyltrimethylammonium tosylate (CTAT) have potential applications as targeted drug delivery systems, vaccine platforms, and diagnostic tools. To facilitate these applications, we evaluated various methods to attach proteins to the surface of SDBS/CTAT vesicles. Acid phosphatase from wheat germ was used as a model protein. Acid phosphatase was successfully conjugated to vesicles enriched with a Triton-X 100 derivative containing an unsaturated ester. Enzymatic activity of acid phosphatase attached to vesicles was assessed using an acid phosphatase assay. Results from the acid phosphatase assay indicated that 15 ± 3% of the attached protein remained functional but the presence of vesicles interferes with the assay. DLS and zeta potential results correlated with the protein functionalization studies. Acid phosphatase functionalized vesicles had an average diameter of 175 ± 85 nm and an average zeta potential of -61 ± 5 mV in PBS. As a control, vesicles enriched with Triton-X 100 were prepared and analyzed by DLS and zeta potential measurements. Triton X-100 enriched vesicles had an average diameter of 140 ± 67 nm and an average zeta potential of -49 ± 2 mV in PBS. Functionalizing the surface of SVs with proteins may be a key step in developing vesicle-based technologies. For drug delivery, antibodies could be used as targeting molecules; for vaccine formulation, functionalizing the surface with spike proteins may produce novel vaccine platforms.

Anthracene functionalized terpyridines - synthesis and properties.

Project description:The synthesis of several symmetrically 4,4''-functionalized 2,2':6',2''-terpyridines is reported. In addition to the biscarboxylic acid 4,4''-tpy(CO₂H)₂ (3), the anthryl esters 4,4''-tpy(CO₂CH₂Anth) ₂(5a) and 4,4''-tpy(CO₂CH₂CH₂OAnth)₂ (5b) were synthesized. Furthermore, both anthryl esters were used to synthesize symmetric iron(II)-bis(terpyridine)complexes 6a-b. Irradiation experiments were carried out with both the free ligands and an iron(II)-complex in order to investigate the photochemistry of the compounds.

Facile synthesis of highly functionalized ethyltrifluoroborates.

Project description:Organotrifluoroborates are generating increased interest because of their ease of preparation and purification and indefinite shelf life. Herein we report the preparation of organotrifluoroborates bearing functional groups that can be manipulated at different stages of the synthetic route, exploiting the inertness of their carbon-boron bonds. The alkylation of 2,2-dicyanoethyltrifluoroborate with a variety of electrophiles and of (EWG)2CH2 with potassium iodomethyltrifluoroborate resulted in di- and trisubstituted ethyltrifluoroborates in good to excellent yields.

Pyrene-Functionalized Polyacetylenes: Synthesis and Photoluminescence Property.

Project description:Four pyrene-functionalized polyacetylenes were designed and prepared through a typical post-polymerization modification route, which is the highly efficient reaction between activated ester and primary anime groups. The chemical structures of the resultant polymers were characterized with multiple spectroscopic techniques and the data indicated the successful functionalization of the polyacetylenes. The introduction of the pyrene moieties into the polymer structure allowed us to investigate the interactions between the polymer backbone and side chains. For the mono-substituted polyacetylenes, both the monomer and excimer emission features of the pyrene groups could be recorded, while for the di-substituted polyacetylenes, the fluorescence from the pyrene excimer vanished and the fluorescence intensity from the pyrene monomer decreased, the fluorescence from the polymer chain predominated the emission features. The concomitant energy transfer from the pyrene monomer and excimer to poly(diphenylacetylene) backbone was associated with the underlying mechanism. In addition to the substitution modes, the linkage between the poly(diphenylacetylene) backbone and the pyrene moiety also played a significant role in the determination of the emission species. A long alkyl spacer was beneficial to the pyrene monomer emission while a short one may be helpful to the formation of the excimer and intramolecular energy transfer.

Nickel-Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of Functionalized Alkyl Iodides.

Project description:Functionalized alkyl iodides are important compounds in organic chemistry and biology. In this communication, we developed an interesting nickel-catalyzed carbonylative synthesis of functionalized alkyl iodides from aryl iodides and ethers. With Mo(CO)6 as the solid CO source, both cyclic and acyclic ethers were activated, which is also a challenging topic in organic synthesis. Functionalized alkyl iodides were prepared in moderate to excellent yields with outstanding functional group tolerance. Besides the high value of the obtained products, all the atoms from the starting materials were incorporated in the final products and the reaction had high atom efficiency as well.
