A modular and concise approach to MIDA acylboronates via chemoselective oxidation of unsymmetrical geminal diborylalkanes: unlocking access to a novel class of acylborons.

ABSTRACT: Acylboronates represent a very intriguing and rare class of organoboronates. Synthesis of these compounds from readily available substrates under mild conditions and access to novel classes of acylborons has been challenging. We report a novel and concise route to various MIDA acylboronates from terminal alkynes/alkenes or vinyl boronic esters using unsymmetrical geminal diborylalkanes as key intermediates. The high modularity and mild conditions of this strategy allowed a facile access to acylboronates possessing aliphatic, aromatic as well as the rarer heteroaromatic, alkynyl and ?,?-unsaturated scaffolds. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of chemoselective oxidation of geminal diborons as well as synthesis of an ?,?-unsaturated acylboronate.

Three-component dicarbofunctionalization of allylamines via nucleopalladation pathway: unlocking vicinal and geminal selectivity.

Project description:A palladium(ii)-catalyzed vicinal as well as geminal selective dicarbofunctionalization of allylamine embedded in a removable picolinamide auxiliary is developed by exploiting a nucleopalladation-triggered intermolecular three-component coupling reaction. The vicinal selectivity was accomplished by engaging allylamine, indoles, and aryl or styrenyl halides through a Pd(ii)/Pd(iv) reaction manifold, while the two-fold coupling of allylamine and indoles via a Pd(ii)/Pd(0) reaction modality resulted in geminal selectivity. The protocol is operationally simple, scalable, and offers two distinct types of products bearing functionalized tryptamine and bisindolyl frameworks in very high to excellent yields. The reaction features a wide substrate generality and also remains effective in the presence of various medicinally relevant scaffolds. Notably, this work represents the first example of nucleopalladation-guided intermolecular dicarbofunctionalization of allylamines.

Chemoselective methylene oxidation in aromatic molecules.

Project description:Despite significant progress in the development of site-selective aliphatic C-H oxidations over the past decade, the ability to oxidize strong methylene C-H bonds in the presence of more oxidatively labile aromatic functionalities remains a major unsolved problem. Such chemoselective reactivity is highly desirable for enabling late-stage oxidative derivatizations of pharmaceuticals and medicinally important natural products that often contain such functionality. Here, we report a simple manganese small-molecule catalyst Mn(CF3-PDP) system that achieves such chemoselectivity via an unexpected synergy of catalyst design and acid additive. Preparative remote methylene oxidation is obtained in 50 aromatic compounds housing medicinally relevant halogen, oxygen, heterocyclic and biaryl moieties. Late-stage methylene oxidation is demonstrated on four drug scaffolds, including the ethinylestradiol scaffold where other non-directed C-H oxidants that tolerate aromatic groups effect oxidation at only activated tertiary benzylic sites. Rapid generation of a known metabolite (piragliatin) from an advanced intermediate is demonstrated.

Enantioselective assembly of tertiary stereocenters via multicomponent chemoselective cross-coupling of geminal chloro(iodo)alkanes.

Project description:Tertiary stereocenters represent a ubiquitous and highly important motif in many pharmaceutically active compounds and natural products. Development of efficient and straightforward approaches to their enantioselective construction from readily available simple substrates is an important yet challenging goal for synthetic chemistry. Herein we describe an efficient, versatile and facile method for the highly enantioselective construction of tertiary stereocenters via unprecedented consecutive one-pot Suzuki reactions of non-activated racemic 1-chloro-1-iodoalkanes with alkylboranes. It represents the first cross-coupling approach which employs simple and readily available primary alkyl substrates for the direct multicomponent assembly of enantioenriched tertiary stereocenters. A simple and effective preparation of 1-chloro-1-iodoalkanes from ubiquitous ?-chloroalkanoic acids is also described. Collectively, the developed methods open a door to efficient catalytic enantioselective synthesis of alkanes bearing tertiary stereocenters from carboxylic acids just in few steps.

Chemoselective Activation of Diethyl Phosphonates: Modular Synthesis of Biologically Relevant Phosphonylated Scaffolds.

Project description:Phosphonates have garnered considerable attention for years owing to both their singular biological properties and their synthetic potential. State-of-the-art methods for the preparation of mixed phosphonates, phosphonamidates, phosphonothioates, and phosphinates rely on harsh and poorly selective reaction conditions. We report herein a mild method for the modular preparation of phosphonylated derivatives, several of which exhibit interesting biological activities, that is based on chemoselective activation with triflic anhydride. This procedure enables flexible and even iterative substitution with a broad range of O, S, N, and C?nucleophiles.

Chemoselective Aliphatic C-H Bond Oxidation Enabled by Polarity Reversal.

Project description:Methods for selective oxidation of aliphatic C-H bonds are called on to revolutionize organic synthesis by providing novel and more efficient paths. Realization of this goal requires the discovery of mechanisms that can alter in a predictable manner the innate reactivity of these bonds. Ideally, these mechanisms need to make oxidation of aliphatic C-H bonds, which are recognized as relatively inert, compatible with the presence of electron rich functional groups that are highly susceptible to oxidation. Furthermore, predictable modification of the relative reactivity of different C-H bonds within a molecule would enable rapid diversification of the resulting oxidation products. Herein we show that by engaging in hydrogen bonding, fluorinated alcohols exert a polarity reversal on electron rich functional groups, directing iron and manganese catalyzed oxidation toward a priori stronger and unactivated C-H bonds. As a result, selective hydroxylation of methylenic sites in hydrocarbons and remote aliphatic C-H oxidation of otherwise sensitive alcohol, ether, amide, and amine substrates is achieved employing aqueous hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. Oxidations occur in a predictable manner, with outstanding levels of product chemoselectivity, preserving the first-formed hydroxylation product, thus representing an extremely valuable tool for synthetic planning and development.

Chemoselective and enantioselective oxidation of indoles employing aspartyl peptide catalysts.

Project description:Catalytic enantioselective indole oxidation is a process of particular relevance to the chemistry of complex alkaloids, as it has been implicated in their biosynthesis. In the context of synthetic methodology, catalytic enantioselective indole oxidation allows a rapid and biomimetic entry into several classes of alkaloid natural products. Despite this potentially high utility in the total synthesis, reports of catalytic enantioselective indole oxidation remain sparse. Here we report a highly chemoselective catalytic system for the indole oxidation that delivers 3-hydroxy-indolenines with good chemical yields and moderate to high levels of enantio- and diastereoselectivity (up to 95:5 er and up to 92:8 dr). These results represent, to our knowledge, the most selective values yet reported in the literature for catalytic asymmetric indole oxidation. Furthermore, the utility of enantioenriched hydroxy-indolenines in stereospecific rearrangements is demonstrated.

Chemoselective Oxidation of Equatorial Alcohols with N-Ligated ?3-Iodanes.

Project description:The site-selective and chemoselective functionalization of alcohols in complex polyols remains a formidable synthetic challenge. Whereas significant advancements have been made in selective derivatization at the oxygen center, chemoselective oxidation to the corresponding carbonyls is less developed. In cyclic systems, whereas the selective oxidation of axial alcohols is well known, a complementary equatorial selective process has not yet been reported. Herein we report the utility of nitrogen-ligated (bis)cationic ?3-iodanes (N-HVIs) for alcohol oxidation and their unprecedented levels of selectivity for the oxidation of equatorial over axial alcohols. The conditions are mild, and the simple pyridine-ligated reagent (Py-HVI) is readily synthesized from commercial PhI(OAc)2 and can be either isolated or generated in situ. Conformational selectivity is demonstrated in both flexible 1,2-substituted cyclohexanols and rigid polyol scaffolds, providing chemists with a novel tool for chemoselective oxidation.
