Cyanide-Free Ce(III)-Catalyzed Highly Efficient Synthesis of ?-Iminonitriles from 2-Aminopyridines and Nitroalkenes via Intermolecular Dehydration Reaction.

ABSTRACT: A direct and rapid method for the synthesis of ?-iminonitriles achieved good to excellent yields. A novel intermolecular dehydration reaction between 2-aminopyridines and nitroalkenes is reported via a rare-earth-metal catalyst. The merits of this transformation include cyanide-free protocol, short reaction time, simple operation, water as the only byproduct, commercially available reagents, good functional group tolerance, etc. Moreover, nitroalkenes are demonstrated as a new "CN" source in this transformation.

Catalytic asymmetric intermolecular stetter reaction of heterocyclic aldehydes with nitroalkenes: backbone fluorination improves selectivity.

Project description:The catalytic asymmetric intermolecular Stetter reaction of heterocyclic aldehydes and nitroalkenes has been developed. We have identified a strong stereoelectronic effect on catalyst structure when a fluorine substituent is placed in the backbone. X-ray structure analysis provides evidence that hyperconjugative effects are responsible for a change in conformation in the azolium precatalyst. This new N-heterocyclic carbene precursor bearing fluorine substitution in the backbone results in significantly improved enantioselectivities across a range of substrates.

Catalytic asymmetric intermolecular Stetter reaction of enals with nitroalkenes: enhancement of catalytic efficiency through bifunctional additives.

Project description:An asymmetric intermolecular Stetter reaction of enals with nitroalkenes catalyzed by chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes has been developed. The reaction rate and efficiency are profoundly impacted by the presence of catechol. The reaction proceeds with high selectivities and affords good yields of the Stetter product. Internal redox products were not observed despite of the protic conditions. The impact of catechol has been found to be general, facilitating far lower catalyst loadings than were previously achievable.

Gallium (III) triflate catalyzed efficient Strecker reaction of ketones and their fluorinated analogs.

Project description:The synthesis of alpha-aminonitriles and their fluorinated analogs has been carried out in high yield and purity by the Strecker reaction from the corresponding ketones and amines with trimethylsilyl cyanide using gallium triflate in dichloromethane. Monofluoro-, difluro-, or trifluoromethyl groups can be incorporated into the alpha-aminonitrile product by varying the nature of the fluorinated ketones. Study with various fluorinated and nonfluorinated ketones reveals that the choice of proper catalyst and the solvent system (suitable metal triflates as a catalyst and dichloromethane as a solvent) plays the key role in the direct Strecker reactions of ketones.

1,4-Addition of TMSCCl₃ to nitroalkenes: efficient reaction conditions and mechanistic understanding.

Project description:Improved synthetic conditions allow preparation of TMSCCl3 in good yield (70%) and excellent purity. Compounds of the type NBu4X [X=Ph3SiF2 (TBAT), F (tetrabutylammonium fluoride, TBAF), OAc, Cl and Br] act as catalytic promoters for 1,4-additions to a range of cyclic and acyclic nitroalkenes, in THF at 0-25 °C, typically in moderate to excellent yields (37-95%). TBAT is the most effective promoter and bromide the least effective. Multinuclear NMR studies ((1)H, (19)F, (13)C and (29)Si) under anaerobic conditions indicate that addition of TMSCCl3 to TBAT (both 0.13 M) at -20 °C, in the absence of nitroalkene, leads immediately to mixtures of Me3SiF, Ph3SiF and NBu4CCl3. The latter is stable to at least 0 °C and does not add nitroalkene from -20 to 0 °C, even after extended periods. Nitroalkene, in the presence of TMSCCl3 (both 0.13 M at -20 °C), when treated with TBAT, leads to immediate formation of the 1,4-addition product, suggesting the reaction proceeds via a transient [Me3Si(alkene)CCl3] species, in which (alkene) indicates an Si⋅⋅⋅O coordinated nitroalkene. The anaerobic catalytic chain is propagated through the kinetic nitronate anion resulting from 1,4 CCl3(-) addition to the nitroalkene. This is demonstrated by the fact that isolated NBu4[CH2=NO2] is an efficient promoter. Use of H2C=CH(CH2)2CH=CHNO2 in air affords radical-derived bicyclic products arising from aerobic oxidation.

Rh(III)-Catalyzed Aryl and Alkenyl C-H Bond Addition to Diverse Nitroalkenes.

Project description:The transition metal catalyzed C-H bond addition to nitroalkenes has been developed. Very broad nitroalkene scope was observed for this Rh(III)-catalyzed method, including for aliphatic, aromatic and β,β-disubstituted derivatives. Additionally, various directing groups and both aromatic and alkenyl C-H bonds were effective in this transformation. Representative nitroalkane products were converted to dihydroisoquinolones and dihydropyridones in a single step and in high yield by iron mediated reduction and in situ cyclization. Moreover, preliminary success in enantioselective Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H bond addition to nitroalkenes was achieved as was X-ray structural characterization of a nitronate intermediate.

A cyanide-catalyzed imino-Stetter reaction enables the concise total syntheses of rucaparib.

Project description:Two routes toward the synthesis of rucaparib, an FDA-approved drug used for the treatment of ovarian and prostate cancers, have been developed from commercially available starting materials utilizing the cyanide-catalyzed imino-Stetter reaction as the key step for the construction of the indole motif bearing all the desired substituents in their correct positions. In the first-generation synthesis, meta-fluorobenzoate, the starting material currently used in the process chemistry route of rucaparib, was converted into 4,6-disubstituted 2-aminocinnamic acid derivatives (ester or amide). The cyanide-catalyzed imino-Stetter reaction of aldimines derived from the resulting 2-aminocinnamic acid derivatives and a commercially available aldehyde afforded the desired indole-3-acetic acid derivatives. The final azepinone formation completed the total synthesis of rucaparib in 27% overall yield. To resolve the issues raised in the first-generation synthesis, we further developed a second-generation synthesis of rucaparib. The Heck reaction of a commercially available ortho-iodoaniline derivative with acrylonitrile provided 4,6-disubstituted 2-aminocinnamonitrile, which was subjected to the imino-Stetter reaction with the same aldehyde to provide the desired indole-3-acetonitrile product. Subsequent construction of the azepinone scaffold completed the total synthesis of rucaparib in 59% overall yield over three separation operations. The synthetic strategy reported herein can provide a highly practical route to access rucaparib from commercially available starting materials (5.2% overall yield in the current process chemistry route vs. 59% overall yield in the second-generation synthesis).

Rhodium-catalyzed intermolecular enantioselective Alder-ene type reaction of cyclopentenes with silylacetylenes.

Project description:The Alder-ene type reaction between alkenes and alkynes provides an efficient and atom-economic method for the construction of C-C bond, which has been widely employed in the synthesis of natural products and other functional molecules. The intramolecular enantioselective Alder-ene cycloisomerization reactions of 1,n-enynes have been extensively investigated. However, the intermolecular asymmetric version has not been reported, and remains a challenging task. Herein, we describe a rhodium-catalyzed intermolecular enantioselective Alder-ene type reaction of cyclopentenes with silylacetylenes. A variety of chiral (E)-vinylsilane tethered cyclopentenes bearing one quaternary carbon and one tertiary carbon stereocenters are achieved in high yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction undergoes carbonyl-directed migratory insertion, β-H elimination and desymmetrization of prochiral cyclopentenes processes.

Rh(iii)-catalyzed regioselective intermolecular N-methylene Csp3-H bond carbenoid insertion.

Project description:A Rh(iii)-catalyzed regioselective intermolecular carbenoid insertion into the N-methylene Csp3-H bond of acyclic aliphatic amides has been achieved, taking advantage of bidentate-chelation assistance. This methodology has been successfully applied to a broad range of linear and branched-chain N-alkylamides, thus providing a practical method for the assembly of diverse beta-amino esters. Mechanism studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that a singlet Fischer type carbene insertion via an outer-sphere pathway was involved in this N-methylene Csp3-H bond carbenoid insertion.

Efficient Dehydration of C6-10-?,?-Alkanediols to Alkadienes as Catalyzed by Aliphatic Acids.

Project description:The aliphatic-acid-mediated dehydration of C6-10-?,?-alkanediols to alkadienes proceeds in a stepwise manner: C6-10-?,?-alkanediols react with aliphatic acids first to generate diesters; subsequent pyrolysis of the latter produces alkadienes. The highest yields of 1,5-hexadiene, 1,7-octadiene, and 1,9-decadiene were up to 70.3, 74.8, and 90.3%, respectively. It turned out that pyrolysis favors the diester with a longer carbon chain more, while acetic acid outperformed the other aliphatic acids in the pyrolysis step that a relatively lower temperature was enough for a high yield of alkadienes.

Catalytic, Tunable, One-Step Bismuth(III) Triflate Reaction with Alcohols: Dehydration Versus Dimerization.

Project description:Bi(OTf)3·xH2O is a powerful catalyst for the dehydration of tertiary alcohols into alkenes in apolar solvents. The reaction proceeds smoothly and selectively, with amounts as low as 0.01 mol % catalyst, in yields up to 93%. Moreover, in polar solvents, Bi(OTf)3·xH2O (0.1-1 mol %) selectively catalyzes the dimerization of the alcohols instead, forming new C-C bonds, in yields up to 96%. This mild, efficient, economic, and eco-friendly method is applicable across different chemical classes and amenable to several functional groups.
