Activation of Electrophile/Nucleophile Pair by a Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Solvation in a SNAr Reaction.

ABSTRACT: Nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions of 4-chloroquinazoline toward aniline and hydrazine were used as a model system to experimentally show that a substrate bearing heteroatoms on the aromatic ring as substituent is able to establish intramolecular hydrogen bond which may be activated by the reaction media and/or the nature of the nucleophile.

Explicit Solvation Matters: Performance of QM/MM Solvation Models in Nucleophilic Addition.

Project description:Nucleophilic addition onto a carbonyl moiety is strongly affected by solvent, and correctly simulating this solvent effect is often beyond the capability of single-scale quantum mechanical (QM) models. This work explores multiscale approaches for the description of the reversible and highly solvent-sensitive nucleophilic N|···C?O bond formation in an Me2N-(CH2)3-CH?O molecule. In the first stage of this work, we rigorously compare and test four recent quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) explicit solvation models, employing a QM description of water molecules in spherical regions around both the oxygen and the nitrogen atom of the solute. The accuracy of the models is benchmarked against a reference QM simulation, focusing on properties of the solvated Me2N-(CH2)3-CH?O molecule in its ring-closed form. In the second stage, we select one of the models (continuous adaptive QM/MM) and use it to obtain a reliable free energy profile for the N|···C bond formation reaction. We find that the dual-sphere approach allows the model to accurately account for solvent reorganization along the entire reaction path. In contrast, a simple microsolvation model cannot adapt to the changing conditions and provides an incorrect description of the reaction process.

1,3,2,5-Diazadiborinine featuring nucleophilic and electrophilic boron centres.

Project description:The seminal discovery in 1865 by Kekulé that benzene nucleus exists with cyclic skeleton is considered to be the beginning of aromatic chemistry. Since then, a myriad of cyclic molecules displaying aromatic property have been synthesized. Meanwhile, borazine (B3N3H6), despite the isostructural and isoelectronic relationships with benzene, exhibits little aromaticity. Herein, we report the synthesis of a 1,3,2,5-diazadiborinine (B2C2N2R6) derivative, a hybrid inorganic/organic benzene, and we present experimental and computational evidence for its aromaticity. In marked contrast to the reactivity of benzene, borazine, and even azaborinines previously reported, 1,3,2,5-diazadiborinine readily forms the adducts with methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate and phenylacetylene without any catalysts. Moreover, 1,3,2,5-diazadiborine activates carbon dioxide giving rise to a bicycle[2,2,2] product, and the binding process was found to be reversible. These results, thus, demonstrate that 1,3,2,5-diazadiborinine features both nucleophilic and electrophilic boron centres, with a formal B(+I)/B(+III) mixed valence system, in the aromatic six-membered B2C2N2 ring.

Reaction of allene esters with Selectfluor/TMSX (X = I, Br, Cl) and Selectfluor/NH4SCN: Competing oxidative/electrophilic dihalogenation and nucleophilic/conjugate addition.

Project description:Reaction of benzyl and ethyl allenoates with TMSX (X = I, Br, Cl) and with NH4SCN were investigated in MeCN, DMF, and in imidazolium ionic liquids [BMIM][NTf2] and [BMIM][PF6] as solvent, in the presence and absence of Selectfluor. Comparative product analysis studies demonstrate that the ability of Selectflour to promote oxidative/electrophilic dihalogenation/dithiocyanation with TMSX/NH4SCN (as observed previously for 1-arylallenes) is diminished in allenoates, most significantly in reactions with TMSCl, and essentially disappearing in reactions with NH4SCN, in favor of nucleophilic/conjugate addition. The study underscores the contrasting reactivity patterns in 1-arylallenes and allenoates toward electrophilic and nucleophilic additions in halofunctionalization with TMSX/Selectfluor and thiocyanation reactions with NH4SCN/Selectfluor. These competing pathways are influenced by the nature of the anion, allene structure, and the choice of solvent.

Successive Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Allylation for the Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of 2,4-Disubstituted Pyrrolidines.

Project description:Successive nucleophilic and electrophilic allylation mediated by the bis-Boc-carbonate derived from 2-methylene-1,3-propane diol enables formation of enantiomerically enriched 2,4-disubstituted pyrrolidines. An initial enantioselective iridium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenative carbonyl C-allylation is followed by Tsuji-Trost N-allylation using 2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide. Subsequent Mitsunobu cyclization provides the N-protected 2,4-disubstituted pyrrolidines.

Copper-Catalyzed Electrophilic Chlorocyclization Reaction Using Sodium Chloride as the Source of Electrophilic Chlorine.

Project description:The synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted benzo[b]thiophenes with selective placement of a chlorine moiety at the 3 position while maintaining diversity at the 2 position has only been accomplished by a handful of conditions in the past. The development of a greener, less expensive, and simpler method is paramount for the exploration of innovative compounds for application in medicinal and materials chemistry. Herein, the first reported copper-catalyzed electrophilic chlorocyclization method was developed and employed across diverse substrates to generate highly functionalized 2,3-disubstituted benzo[b]thiophenes and 2,3,5-trisubstituted thiophenes in very high yields. This method was optimized in both ethanol and acetonitrile in a comparative solvent study. The utility of this method was further expanded beyond chlorocyclization by changing the sodium halide to generate bromo- and iodocyclization products in excellent yields.

Parallel evaluation of nucleophilic and electrophilic chemical probes for sulfenic acid: Reactivity, selectivity and biocompatibility.

Project description:Cysteine sulfenic acids (Cys-SOH) are pivotal modifications in thiol-based redox signaling and central intermediates en route to disulfide and sulfinic acid states. A core mission in our lab is to develop bioorthogonal chemical tools with the potential to answer mechanistic questions involving cysteine oxidation. Our group, among others, has contributed to the development of nucleophilic chemical probes for detecting sulfenic acids in living cells. Recently, another class of Cys-SOH probes based on strained alkene and alkyne electrophiles has emerged. However, the use of different models of sulfenic acid and methodologies, has confounded clear comparison of these probes with respect to chemical reactivity, kinetics, and selectivity. Here, we perform a parallel evaluation of nucleophilic and electrophilic chemical probes for Cys-SOH. Among the key findings, we demonstrate that a probe for Cys-SOH based on the norbornene scaffold does not react with any of the validated sulfenic acid models in this study. Furthermore, we show that purported cross-reactivity of dimedone-like probes with electrophiles, like aldehydes and cyclic sulfenamides, is a not meaningful in a biological setting. In summary, nucleophilic probes remain the most viable tools for bioorthogonal detection of Cys-SOH.

A nonheme peroxo-diiron(III) complex exhibiting both nucleophilic and electrophilic oxidation of organic substrates.

Project description:The complex [FeIII2(μ-O2)(L3)4(S)2]4+ (L3 = 2-(4-thiazolyl)benzimidazole, S = solvent) forms upon reaction of [FeII(L3)2] with H2O2 and is a functional model of peroxo-diiron intermediates invoked during the catalytic cycle of oxidoreductases. The spectroscopic properties of the complex are in line with those of complexes formed with N-donor ligands. [FeIII2(μ-O2)(L3)4(S)2]4+ shows both nucleophilic (aldehydes) and electrophilic (phenol, N,N-dimethylanilines) oxidative reactivity and unusually also electron transfer oxidation.

Reactivity, Selectivity, and Stability in Sulfenic Acid Detection: A Comparative Study of Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Probes.

Project description:The comparative reaction efficiencies of currently used nucleophilic and electrophilic probes toward cysteine sulfenic acid have been thoroughly evaluated in two different settings-(i) a small molecule dipeptide based model and (ii) a recombinant protein model. We further evaluated the stability of corresponding thioether and sulfoxide adducts under reducing conditions which are commonly encountered during proteomic protocols and in cell analysis. Powered by the development of new cyclic and linear C-nucleophiles, the unsurpassed efficiency in the capture of sulfenic acid under competitive conditions is achieved and thus holds great promise as highly potent tools for activity-based sulfenome profiling.

Nucleophile-Assisted Alkene Activation: Olefins Alone Are Often Incompetent.

Project description:Emerging work on organocatalytic enantioselective halocyclizations naturally draws on conditions where both new bonds must be formed under delicate control, the reaction regime where the concerted nature of the AdE3 mechanism is of greatest importance. Without assistance, many simple alkene substrates react slowly or not at all with conventional halenium donors under synthetically relevant reaction conditions. As demonstrated earlier by Shilov, Cambie, Williams, Fahey, and others, alkenes can undergo a concerted AdE3-type reaction via nucleophile participation, which sets the configuration of the newly created stereocenters at both ends in one step. Herein, we explore the modulation of alkene reactivity and halocyclization rates by nucleophile proximity and basicity, through detailed analyses of starting material spectroscopy, addition stereopreferences, isotope effects, and nucleophile-alkene interactions, all obtained in a context directly relevant to synthesis reaction conditions. The findings build on the prior work by highlighting the reactivity spectrum of halocyclizations from stepwise to concerted, and suggest strategies for design of new reactions. Alkene reactivity is seen to span the range from the often overgeneralized "sophomore textbook" image of stepwise electrophilic attack on the alkene and subsequent nucleophilic bond formation, to the nucleophile-assisted alkene activation (NAAA) cases where electron donation from the nucleophilic addition partner activates the alkene for electrophilic attack. By highlighting the factors that control reactivity across this range, this study suggests opportunities to explain and control stereo-, regio-, and organocatalytic chemistry in this important class of alkene additions.
