Catalytic Hydrothiolation: Counterion-Controlled Regioselectivity.

ABSTRACT: In this Article, we expand upon the catalytic hydrothiolation of 1,3-dienes to afford either allylic or homoallylic sulfides with high regiocontrol. Mechanistic studies support a pathway in which regioselectivity is dictated by the choice of counterion associated with the Rh center. Non-coordinating counterions, such as SbF6-, allow for ?4-diene coordination to Rh complexes and result in allylic sulfides. In contrast, coordinating counterions, such as Cl-, favor neutral Rh complexes in which the diene binds ?2 to afford homoallylic sulfides. We propose mechanisms that rationalize a fractional dependence on thiol for the 1,2-Markovnikov hydrothiolation while accounting for an inverse dependence on thiol in the 3,4- anti-Markovnikov pathway. Through the hydrothiolation of an essential oil (?-farnesene), we achieve the first enantioselective synthesis of (-)-agelasidine A.

General Co-catalytic Hydrothiolation of gem-Difluoroalkenes.

Project description:Regioselective functionalization of gem-difluoroalkenes enables convergent late-stage access to fluorinated functional groups, though most functionalization reactions proceed through defluorinative functionalization processes that deliver mono-fluorovinyl products. In contrast, fewer reactions undergo net hydrofunctionalization to generate difluorinated products. Herein, we report a photocatalytic hydrothiolation of gem-difluoroalkenes that enables access to a broad spectrum of α,α-difluoroalkylthioethers. Notably, the reaction successfully couples nonactivated substrates, which expands the scope of accessible molecules relative to previously reported reactions involving organo- or photocatalytic strategies. Further, this reaction successfully couples biologically relevant molecules under aqueous conditions, highlighting potential applications in both late-stage and biorthogonal functionalizations.

Catalytic Hydrothiolation: Regio- and Enantioselective Coupling of Thiols and Dienes.

Project description:We report a Rh-catalyzed hydrothiolation of 1,3-dienes, including petroleum feedstocks. Either secondary or tertiary allylic sulfides can be generated from the selective addition of a thiol to the more substituted double bond of a diene. The catalyst tolerates a wide range of functional groups, and the loading can be as low as 0.1 mol %.

Green Catalytic Method for Hydrothiolation of Allylamines: An External Electric Field.

Project description:Based on the idea of environmental friendliness, we first studied the hydrothiolation reactions of thiophenol with allylamine using a green catalyst-an external electric field (EEF). The hydrothiolation reactions could occur through Markovnikov addition (path M) and anti-Markovnikov addition (path AM) pathways. The calculation results demonstrated that when the EEF was oriented along F -X , F -Y , and F +Z directions, path M was accelerated. However, it is favorable for path AM only when the EEF is oriented along the +X and -Y-axes. In addition, the introduction of the EEF further increased and lowered the differences of the reaction barrier as the EEF was oriented along F -X , F -Y , and F +X directions. The solvent effects were also considered in this work. Hopefully, this unprecedented and green catalytic method for the hydrothiolation reactions of allylamine may provide guidance in the lab.

Regioselectivity of Catechol O-Methyltransferase Confers Enhancement of Catalytic Activity.

Project description:Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) metabolizes catechol moieties by methylating a single hydroxyl group at the meta- or para- hydroxyl position. Hydrophobic amino acids near the active site of COMT influence the regioselectivity of this reaction. Our sequence analysis highlights their importance by showing that these residues are highly conserved throughout evolution. Reaction barriers calculated in the gas phase reveal a lower barrier during methylation at the meta- position, suggesting that the observed meta-regioselectivity of COMT can be attributed to the substrate itself, and that COMT has evolved residues to orient the substrate in a manner that increases the rate of catalysis.

Chiral-at-Ruthenium-SEGPHOS Catalysts Display Diastereomer-Dependent Regioselectivity: Enantioselective Isoprene-Mediated Carbonyl tert-Prenylation via Halide Counterion Effects.

Project description:The first correlation between metal-centered stereogenicity and regioselectivity in a catalytic process is described. Alternate pseudo-diastereomeric chiral-at-ruthenium complexes of the type RuX(CO)[η3-prenyl][(S)-SEGPHOS] form in a halide-dependent manner and display divergent regioselectivity in catalytic C-C couplings of isoprene to alcohol proelectrophiles via hydrogen autotransfer. Whereas the chloride-bound ruthenium-SEGPHOS complex prefers a trans-relationship between the halide and carbonyl ligands and delivers products of carbonyl sec-prenylation, the iodide-bound ruthenium-SEGPHOS complex prefers a cis-relationship between the halide and carbonyl ligands and delivers products of carbonyl tert-prenylation. The chloride- and iodide-bound ruthenium-SEGPHOS complexes were characterized in solution and solid phase by 31P NMR and X-ray diffraction. Density functional theory calculations of the iodide-bound catalyst implicate a Curtin-Hammett-type scenario in which the transition states for aldehyde coordination from an equilibrating mixture of sec- and tert-prenylruthenium complexes are rate- and product-determining. Thus, control of metal-centered diastereoselectivity has unlocked the first catalytically enantioselective isoprene-mediated carbonyl tert-prenylations.

Temperature-controlled regioselectivity in the reductive cleavage of p-methoxybenzylidene acetals.

Project description:The regioselective ring opening of pyranosidic 4,6-p-methoxybenzylidene acetals with BH(3)/Bu(2)BOTf in THF can be tuned by adjusting the reaction temperature and reagent concentrations. Reductive cleavage at 0 degrees C resulted in the exclusive formation of 4-O-p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) ethers, whereas reaction at -78 degrees C produced 6-O-PMB ethers in high yields. The latter condition was observed to be compatible with a variety of acid-sensitive functional groups, including allyl and enol ethers. The presence of water does not interfere with reductive ring opening and may contribute toward in situ generation of H(+) as a catalyst for 6-O-PMB ether formation. Reductive cleavage under rigorously aprotic conditions is greatly decelerated, and yields only the 4-O-PMB ether. The temperature-dependent reductive cleavage of the 4,6-acetal can be described in terms of kinetic versus thermodynamic control: Lewis-acid coordination of the more accessible O-6 is favored at higher temperatures, whereas protonation of the more basic but sterically encumbered O-4 predominates at low temperatures.

Oxidant-controlled regioselectivity in the oxidative arylation of N-acetylindoles.

Project description:N-Acetylindoles can be oxidatively coupled with arenes such as benzene or pentafluorobenzene in dioxane. The use of Cu(OAc)(2) as the stoichiometric oxidant produces selective arylation at the 3-position of indole while AgOAc produces selective arylation at indole's 2-position.

Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of C1 - and C2 -Symmetric Spirobiindanones through Counterion-Directed Enolate C-Acylation.

Project description:A catalytic enantioselective route to C1 - and C2 -symmetric 2,2'-spirobiindanones has been realized through an intramolecular enolate C-acylation. This reaction employs a chiral ammonium counterion to direct the acylation of an in?situ generated ketone enolate with a pentafluorophenyl ester. This reaction constitutes the first example of a direct catalytic enantioselective C-acylation of a ketone and provides an efficient and highly enantioselective route to axially chiral spirobiindanediones. These products can be diastereoselectively derivatized, offering access to a range of functionalized spirocyclic architectures.

Directing group-controlled regioselectivity in an enzymatic C-H bond oxygenation.

Project description:Highly regioselective remote hydroxylation of a natural product scaffold is demonstrated by exploiting the anchoring mechanism of the biosynthetic P450 monooxygenase PikCD50N-RhFRED. Previous studies have revealed structural and biochemical evidence for the role of a salt bridge between the desosamine N,N-dimethylamino functionality of the natural substrate YC-17 and carboxylate residues within the active site of the enzyme, and selectivity in subsequent C-H bond functionalization. In the present study, a substrate-engineering approach was conducted that involves replacing desosamine with varied synthetic N,N-dimethylamino anchoring groups. We then determined their ability to mediate enzymatic total turnover numbers approaching or exceeding that of the natural sugar, while enabling ready introduction and removal of these amino anchoring groups from the substrate. The data establish that the size, stereochemistry, and rigidity of the anchoring group influence the regioselectivity of enzymatic hydroxylation. The natural anchoring group desosamine affords a 1:1 mixture of regioisomers, while synthetic anchors shift YC-17 analogue C-10/C-12 hydroxylation from 20:1 to 1:4. The work demonstrates the utility of substrate engineering as an orthogonal approach to protein engineering for modulation of regioselective C-H functionalization in biocatalysis.
