ROTf-induced annulation of heteroatom reagents and unsaturated substrates leading to cyclic compounds.

ABSTRACT: The development of metal-free organic reactions is one of the hotspots in the synthesis of cyclic compounds. ROTf (alkyl trifluoromethanesulfonates), due to their good electrophilicity, are powerful alkylating reagents at heteroatoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur and phosphorus to induce an electrophilic centre for carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bond formation. Inspired by this chemistry, a variety of research concentrating on heterocycles synthesis has been carried out. In this review, we mainly summarize the ROTf-induced annulation of heteroatom reagents such as nitriles, carbodiimides, azobenzenes, isothiocyanates, aldehydes, isocyanates and phosphaalkene with themselves or alkynes to afford cyclic compounds.

C-H functionalization of cyclic amines: redox-annulations with ?,?-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.

Project description:Cyclic amines such as pyrrolidine and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline undergo redox-annulations with ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones. Carboxylic acid promoted generation of a conjugated azomethine ylide is followed by 6?-electrocylization, and, in some cases, tautomerization. The resulting ring-fused pyrrolines are readily oxidized to the corresponding pyrroles or reduced to pyrrolidines.

Visible-light-induced, Ir-catalyzed reactions of N-methyl-N-((trimethylsilyl)methyl)aniline with cyclic ?,?-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.

Project description:N-Methyl-N-((trimethylsilyl)methyl)aniline was employed as reagent in visible-light-induced, iridium-catalyzed addition reactions to cyclic ?,?-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. Typical reaction conditions included the use of one equivalent of the reaction substrate, 1.5 equivalents of the aniline and 2.5 mol % (in MeOH) or 1.0 mol % (in CH2Cl2) [Ir(ppy)2(dtbbpy)]BF4 as the catalyst. Two major reaction products were obtained in combined yields of 30-67%. One product resulted from aminomethyl radical addition, the other product was a tricyclic compound, which is likely formed by attack of the intermediately formed ?-carbonyl radical at the phenyl ring. For five-membered ?,?-unsaturated lactone and lactam substrates, the latter products were the only products isolated. For the six-membered lactones and lactams and for cyclopentenone the simple addition products prevailed.

Mechanism of NHC-Catalyzed Conjugate Additions of Diboron and Borosilane Reagents to ?,?-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds.

Project description:Broadly applicable enantioselective C-B and C-Si bond-forming processes catalyzed by an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) were recently introduced; these boryl and silyl conjugate addition reactions (BCA and SCA, respectively), which proceed without the need for a transition-metal complex, represent reaction pathways that are distinct from those facilitated by transition-metal-containing species (e.g., Cu, Ni, Pt, Pd, or Rh based). The Lewis-base-catalyzed (NHC) transformations are valuable to chemical synthesis, as they can generate high enantioselectivities and possess unique chemoselectivity profiles. Here, the results of investigations that elucidate the principal features of the NHC-catalyzed BCA and SCA processes are detailed. Spectroscopic evidence is provided illustrating why the presence of excess base and MeOH or H2O is required for efficient and enantioselective boryl and silyl addition reactions. It is demonstrated that the proton sources influence the efficiency and/or enantioselectivity of NHC-catalyzed enantioselective transformations in several ways. The positive, and at times adverse, impact of water (biphasic conditions) on catalytic enantioselective silyl addition reactions is analyzed. It is shown that a proton source can facilitate nonenantioselective background reactions and NHC decomposition, requiring the catalyst to surpass such complications. Stereochemical models are presented that account for the identity of the observed major enantiomers, providing a rationale for the differences in selectivity profiles of BCA and SCA processes.

Asymmetric Redox-Annulation of Cyclic Amines.

Project description:Cyclic amines such as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline undergo regiodivergent annulation reactions with 4-nitrobutyraldehydes. These redox-neutral transformations enable the asymmetric synthesis of highly substituted polycyclic ring systems in just two steps from commercial materials. The utility of this process is illustrated in a rapid synthesis of (-)-protoemetinol. Computational studies provide mechanistic insights and implicate the elimination of acetic acid from an ammonium nitronate intermediate as the rate-determining step.

Redox-Annulation of Cyclic Amines and ?-Ketoaldehydes.

Project description:Benzo[a]quinolizine-2-one derivatives are readily assembled from 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline and ?-ketoaldehydes by means of a new intramolecular redox-Mannich process. These reactions are promoted by simple acetic acid and are thought to involve azomethine ylides as reactive intermediates.

A Novel Family of [1,4]Thiazino[2,3,4-ij]quinolin-4-ium Derivatives: Regioselective Synthesis Based on Unsaturated Heteroatom and Heterocyclic Compounds and Antibacterial Activity.

Project description:A novel family of [1,4]thiazino[2,3,4-ij]quinolin-4-ium derivatives was synthesized by annulation reactions of 8-quinolinesulfenyl chloride with unsaturated heteroatom and heterocyclic compounds. It was found that the reactions with 4-pentenoic and 5-hexenoic acids, allyl chloride and bromide, allyl cyanate and vinyl heterocyclic compounds (N-vinyl pyrrolidin-2-one and 1-vinylimidazole) proceeded in a regioselective mode but with the opposite regiochemistry. The reactions with vinyl heterocyclic compounds included electrophilic addition of the sulfur atom of 8-quinolinesulfenyl chloride to the β-carbon atom of the vinyl group. In the case of other substrates, the annulation proceeded with the attachment of the sulfur atom to the α-carbon atom of the vinyl group. The antibacterial activity of novel water-soluble compounds against Enterococcus durans, Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli was evaluated. Compounds with high antibacterial activity were found.

Cyclic Alkyne Approach to Heteroatom-Containing Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Scaffolds.

Project description:We report a modular synthetic strategy for accessing heteroatom-containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Our approach relies on the controlled generation of transient heterocyclic alkynes and arynes. The strained intermediates undergo in situ trapping with readily accessible oxadiazinones. Four sequential pericyclic reactions occur, namely two Diels-Alder/retro-Diels-Alder sequences, which can be performed in a stepwise or one-pot fashion to assemble four new carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds. These studies underscore how the use of heterocyclic strained intermediates can be harnessed for the preparation of new organic materials.

The Methyl Torsion in Unsaturated Compounds.

Project description:How the methyl torsion transition energy in unsaturated systems is affected by its environment is investigated. It is strongly influenced by both its immediate neighborhood, (the number of methyl groups present in the molecule) and the intermolecular interactions. It is clear that the intermolecular interactions have a major influence on the torsion transition energy, as demonstrated unambiguously previously for mesitylene and also seen here for other systems. In part, this may be caused by the fact that the methyl torsion is rarely a pure mode (unless enforced by symmetry). Where the crystal structure is available, the assignments have been supported by CASTEP calculations of the unit cell. The agreement between the observed and calculated spectra is generally good, although not perfect, toluene being a case in point, and highlights just how demanding it is to obtain accurate transition energies for low energy modes. The disagreement between observed and calculated inelastic neutron scattering spectra for meta-xylene and 9,10 dimethylanthracene is so severe that it would suggest that there are additional phases to those presently known. Comparison between the full periodic calculations and those for the isolated molecule shows that intermolecular interactions raise the methyl torsion transition energy by at least 8% and in some cases by more than 50%. The presence of more than one methyl group in the molecule generally raises the average torsion energy from the <100 cm-1 seen for single methyl groups to 150-200 cm-1.

Cobalt-mediated [3 + 2]-annulation reaction of alkenes with alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones and imines.

Project description:The utility of cobalt dinitrosyl complexes for the [3 + 2] annulation of alkenes with unsaturated enones and ketimines has been demonstrated. Reaction of a series of cobalt dinitrosyl/alkene adducts with conjugate acceptors in the presence of Sc(OTf)(3)/LHMDS formed two new C-C bonds at the carbons alpha to the nitrosyl groups of the substrate, leading to unusual tri- and tetracycles. Retrocycloaddition of these products in the presence of norbornadiene yielded functionalized tetrasubstituted bicyclic olefins.
