Direct Access to Highly Functionalized Heterocycles through the Condensation of Cyclic Imines and ?-Oxoesters.

ABSTRACT: A facile, gram-scale preparation of 2-hydroxy-5,6,7,7a-tetrahydro-3H-pyrrolizin-3-ones and 2-hydroxy-6,7,8,8a-tetrahydroindolizin-3(5H)-ones from a condensation cyclization of ?-oxoesters with five- and six-membered cyclic imines, respectively, is reported. This transformation enables a concise, three-step synthesis of the natural products phenopyrrozin and p-hydroxyphenopyrrozin. Further, biologically relevant scaffolds, such as ?-quaternary ?-homo prolines and ?-lactams, are also prepared in two- to three-steps from the versatile 2-hydroxy-5,6,7,7a-tetrahydro-3H-pyrrolizin-3-one core.

Amino Azaxylylenes Photogenerated from o-Amido Imines: Photoassisted Access to Complex Spiro-Poly-Heterocycles.

Project description:Upon irradiation, cyclic imines containing o-amido groups are shown to produce reactive intermediates, amino azaxylylenes, which undergo intramolecular cycloadditions to tethered unsaturated pendants to yield complex N,O-heterocycles having an additional spiro-connected nitrogen heterocyclic moiety. Modular assembly of the photoprecursors allows expeditious increase of the complexity of the target poly-heterocyclic scaffolds with a minimal number of experimentally simple reaction steps. The photocyclization and subsequent postphotochemical transformations are accompanied by an increase of Lovering's fsp3 factor, thus producing unprecedented three-dimensional molecular architectures, and offering extended sampling of chemical space.

Condensation reactions of guanidines with bis-electrophiles: Formation of highly nitrogenous heterocycles.

Project description:2-Amino-1,4-dihydropyrimidines were reacted with bis-electrophiles to produce novel fused bi-pyrimidine, pyrimido-aminotriazine, and pyrimido-sulfonamide scaffolds. In addition, a quinazoline library was constructed using a guanidine Atwal-Biginelli reaction with 1-(quinazolin-2-yl)guanidines. The product heterocycles have novel constitutions with high nitrogen atom counts and represent valuable additions to screening libraries for the discovery of new modulators of biological targets.

Enantioselective reduction of sulfur-containing cyclic imines through biocatalysis.

Project description:The 3-thiazolidine ring represents an important structural motif in life sciences molecules. However, up to now reduction of 3-thiazolines as an attractive approach failed by means of nearly all chemical reduction technologies for imines. Thus, the development of an efficient general and enantioselective synthetic technology giving access to a range of such heterocycles remained a challenge. Here we present a method enabling the reduction of 3-thiazolines with high conversion and high to excellent enantioselectivity (at least 96% and up to 99% enantiomeric excess). This technology is based on the use of imine reductases as catalysts, has a broad substrate range, and is also applied successfully to other sulfur-containing heterocyclic imines such as 2H-1,4-benzothiazines. Moreover the effiency of this biocatalytic technology platform is demonstrated in an initial process development leading to 99% conversion and 99% enantiomeric excess at a substrate loading of 18 g/L in the presence of designer cells.

Cyclic alternating ring-opening metathesis polymerization (CAROMP). Rapid access to functionalized cyclic polymers.

Project description:Catalysis of alternating ROMP with (H(2)IMes)Cl(2)Ru=CHPh(OiPr), the second generation Hoveyda-Grubbs catalyst, provided an entirely cyclic alternating polymer. Conditions for the cyclic AROMP were used to prepare a polymer in which one of the repeat units bore a primary alkyl chloride that was used for further elaboration.

Electrochemical-Induced Ring Transformation of Cyclic ?-(ortho-Iodophenyl)-?-oxoesters.

Project description:Cyclic ?-(ortho-iodophenyl)-?-oxoesters were converted in a ring-expanding transformation to furnish benzannulated cycloalkanone carboxylic esters. The reaction sequence started by electrochemical reduction of the iodoarene moiety. In a mechanistic rationale, the resulting carbanionic species was adding to the carbonyl group under formation of a strained, tricyclic benzocyclobutene intermediate, which underwent carbon-carbon bond cleavage and rearrangement of the carbon skeleton by retro-aldol reaction. The scope of the reaction sequence was investigated by converting cyclic oxoesters with different ring sizes yielding benzocycloheptanone, -nonanone and -decanone derivatives in moderate to good yields. Furthermore, acyclic starting materials and cyclic compounds carrying additional substituents on the iodophenyl ring were submitted to this reaction sequence. The starting materials for this transformation are straightforwardly obtained by conversion of ?-oxoesters with phenyliodobis(trifluoroacetate).

Fully automated continuous flow synthesis of highly functionalized imidazo[1,2-a] heterocycles.

Project description:The first continuous flow synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acids directly from 2-aminopyridines and bromopyruvic acid has been developed, representing a significant advance over the corresponding in-flask method. The process was applied to the multistep synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxamides, including a Mur ligase inhibitor, using a two microreactor, multistep continuous flow process without isolation of intermediates.

Palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions on functionalized 2-trifluoromethyl-4-chromenone scaffolds. Synthesis of highly functionalized trifluoromethyl-heterocycles.

Project description:The chromenone core is a ubiquitous group in biologically-active natural products and has been extensively used in organic synthesis. Fluorine derived compounds, including those with a trifluoromethyl group (-CF3), have shown enhanced biological activities in numerous pharmaceuticals compared with their non-fluorinated analogs. We have found that 2-trifluoromethyl chromenones can be readily functionalized in the 8- and 7-positions, providing chromenones cores of high structural complexity which are excellent precursors for numerous trifluoromethyl-heterocycles.

Direct Photoexcitation of Benzothiazolines: Acyl Radical Generation and Application to Access Heterocycles.

Project description:An acyl radical generation and functionalization strategy through direct photoexcitation of benzothiazolines has been developed. The formed acyl radical species can either be trapped by quinoxalin-2-ones to realize their C(3)-H functionalization or trigger a cascade radical cyclization with isonitriles to synthesise biologically important phenanthridines. The synthetic value of this protocol can be further illustrated by the modification of quinoxalin-2-ones, containing important natural products and drug-based complex molecules.

Mitsunobu mischief: neighbor-directed histidine N(?)-alkylation provides access to peptides containing selectively functionalized imidazolium heterocycles.

Project description:There are few methodologies that yield peptides containing His residues with selective N(?), N(?)-bis-alkylated imidazole rings. We have found that, under certain conditions, on-resin Mitsunobu coupling of alcohols with peptides having a N(?)-alkylated His residue results in selective and high-yield alkylation of the imidazole N(?) nitrogen. The reaction requires the presence of a proximal phosphoric, carboxylic or sulfonic acid, and proceeds through an apparent intramolecular mechanism involving Mitsunobu intermediates. These transformations have particular application to phosphopeptides, where "charge masking" of one phosphoryl anionic charge by the cationic histidine imidazolium ion is now possible. This chemistry opens selective access to peptides containing differentially functionalized imidazolium heterocycles, which provide access to new classes of peptides and peptide mimetics.

An efficient and facile access to highly functionalized pyrrole derivatives.

Project description:A straightforward and one-pot synthesis of pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,3-diones via Ag(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with N-alkyl maleimide, followed by readily complete oxidation with DDQ, has been successfully developed. Further transformation with alkylamine/sodium alkoxide alcohol solution conveniently afforded novel polysubstituted pyrroles in good to excellent yields. This methodology for highly functionalized pyrroles performed well over a broad scope of substrates. It is conceivable that this efficient construction method for privileged pyrrole scaffolds could deliver more active compounds for medicinal chemistry research.
