Telescoped, Divergent, Chemoselective C1 and C1-C1 Homologation of Imine Surrogates: Access to Quaternary Chloro- and Halomethyl-Trifluoromethyl Aziridines.

ABSTRACT: A conceptually novel, high-yielding, mono- or bis-homologation was realized with lithium halocarbenoids and enables the one-step, fully chemocontrolled assembly of a new class of quaternary trifluoromethyl aziridines. Trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides (TFAICs) act as convenient electrophilic platforms, enabling the addition of either one or two homologating elements by simply controlling the stoichiometry of the process. Mechanistic studies highlighted that the homologation event, carried out with two different carbenoids (LiCH₂ Cl and LiCH₂ F), leads to fluoromethyl analogues in which the first nucleophile is employed for constructing the cycle and the second for decorating the resulting molecular architecture.

Chemoselective Homologation-Deoxygenation Strategy Enabling the Direct Conversion of Carbonyls into (n+1)-Halomethyl-Alkanes.

Project description:The sequential installation of a carbenoid and a hydride into a carbonyl, furnishing halomethyl alkyl derivatives, is reported. Despite the employment of carbenoids as nucleophiles in reactions with carbon-centered electrophiles, sp3-type alkyl halides remain elusive materials for selective one-carbon homologations. Our tactic levers on using carbonyls as starting materials and enables uniformly high yields and chemocontrol. The tactic is flexible and is not limited to carbenoids. Also, diverse carbanion-like species can act as nucleophiles, thus making it of general applicability.

Nickel-Catalyzed Csp2 -OMe Functionalization for Chemoselective Aromatic Homologation En Route to Nanographenes.

Project description:A Ni-catalyzed Csp2 -OMe ortho-functionalization methodology to form chemoselectively alkyne monoannulation or aromatic homologation products is reported as a novel protocol towards the valorisation of substrates containing Csp2 -OMe units. Double activation of Csp2 -OMe and Csp2 -F bonds is also demonstrated. Further use of aromatic homologation products towards the synthesis of nanographene-like compounds is described.

Accelerating chemoselective peptide bond formation using bis(2-selenylethyl)amido peptide selenoester surrogates.

Project description:Given the potential of peptide selenoesters for protein total synthesis and the paucity of methods for the synthesis of these sensitive peptide derivatives, we sought to explore the usefulness of the bis(2-selenylethyl)amido (SeEA) group, i.e. the selenium analog of the bis(2-sulfanylethyl)amido (SEA) group, for accelerating peptide bond formation. A chemoselective exchange process operating in water was devised for converting SEA peptides into the SeEA ones. Kinetic studies show that SeEA ligation, which relies on an initial N,Se-acyl shift process, proceeds significantly faster than SEA ligation. This property enabled the design of a kinetically controlled three peptide segment assembly process based on the sequential use of SeEA and SEA ligation reactions. The method was validated by the total synthesis of hepatocyte growth factor K1 (85 AA) and biotinylated NK1 (180 AA) domains.

Novel Class of Proteasome Inhibitors: In Silico and In Vitro Evaluation of Diverse Chloro(trifluoromethyl)aziridines.

Project description:The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) is the major proteolytic system in the cytosol and nucleus of all eukaryotic cells. The role of proteasome inhibitors (PIs) as critical agents for regulating cancer cell death has been established. Aziridine derivatives are well-known alkylating agents employed against cancer. However, to the best of our knowledge, aziridine derivatives showing inhibitory activity towards proteasome have never been described before. Herein we report a new class of selective and nonPIs bearing an aziridine ring as a core structure. In vitro cell-based assays (two leukemia cell lines) also displayed anti-proliferative activity for some compounds. In silico studies indicated non-covalent binding mode and drug-likeness for these derivatives. Taken together, these results are promising for developing more potent PIs.

Tandem Homologation-Acylation Chemistry: Single and Double Homologation.

Project description:Treatment of β-dicarbonyls with the Furakawa-variant of the Simmons-Smith reagent results in homologation and production of an intermediate zinc enolate. Treatment of the enolate with various acylating agents generate products with both γ-dicarbonyl functionality and β-dicarbonyl functionality. In situ exposure of the acylated product to additional zinc carbenoid effects a second regiospecific homologation reaction.

Diastereodivergent combined carbometalation/zinc homologation/C-C fragmentation reaction as an efficient tool to prepare acyclic allylic quaternary carbon stereocenters.

Project description:A new strategy has been developed to construct enantiomerically enriched acyclic allylic quaternary carbon stereocenters in a single-pot operation through a combined carbometalation/zinc homologation/fragmentation sequence. Proper tuning of the reaction conditions enables the synthesis of the two enantiomers starting from a single enantiomer of the starting material.

Silyl imine electrophiles in enantioselective catalysis: a Rosetta Stone for peptide homologation, enabling diverse N-protected aryl glycines from aldehydes in three steps.

Project description:We report that N-(trimethylsilyl)imines serve in the Bis(AMidine)-catalyzed addition of bromonitromethane with a high degree of enantioselection. This allows for the production of a range of protected ?-bromo nitroalkane donors (including Fmoc) for use in Umpolung Amide Synthesis (UmAS). Hence, peptide homologation with nonnatural aryl glycine amino acids is achieved in three steps from aromatic aldehydes, which are plentiful and inexpensive. Epimerization during the homologation step is circumvented by avoiding an ?-amino acid intermediate.

Palladium-Catalyzed Chemoselective Activation of sp3 vs sp2 C-H Bonds: Oxidative Coupling To Form Quaternary Centers.

Project description:The oxidative activation of alkyl C-H bonds vs arene C-H bonds with Pd(OAc)2 has been found to be generalizable to a number of nucleophilic substrates allowing the formation of a range of hindered quaternary centers. The substrates share a common mechanistic path wherein Pd(II) initiates an oxidative dimerization. The resultant dimer modifies the palladium catalyst to favor activation of alkyl C-H bonds in contrast to the trends typically observed via a concerted metalation deprotonation mechanism. Notably, insertion occurs at the terminus of the alkyl arene for hindered substrates. Two different oxidant systems were discovered that turn over the process. Parameters have been identified that predict, which substrates are productive in this reaction.

DualPhos: a versatile, chemoselective reagent for two-carbon aldehyde to latent (E)-alkenal homologation and application in the total synthesis of phomolide G.

Project description:Advances on the use of the 2-pinacolacetal-tripropylphosphonium salt DualPhos as a general reagent for the two-carbon aldehyde to alkenal homologation and a chemoselective iron (III) chloride mediated deprotection are described. The strategy allows isolation of the latent alkenal intermediates or direct hydrolysis to (E)-alkenals. The robust chemical stability of the latent alkenals is demonstrated in a total synthesis of the macrolactone phomolide G.
