Catalytic Synthesis of Trifluoromethyl Cyclopropenes and Oligo-Cyclopropenes.

ABSTRACT: The synthesis of trifluoromethylated cyclopropenes is often associated with important applications in drug discovery and functional materials. In this report, we describe the use of readily available chiral rhodium(II) catalysts for a highly efficient asymmetric cyclopropenation reaction of fluorinated donor-acceptor diazoalkanes with a broad variety of aliphatic and aromatic alkynes. Further studies highlight the unique reactivity of fluorinated donor-acceptor diazoalkanes in the synthesis of oligo-cyclopropenes. Subsequent C-H functionalization of trifluoromethyl cyclopropenes furnishes densely substituted cyclopropene frameworks and also allows the alternative synthesis of bis-cyclopropenes.

Enantio- and Diastereoselective Synthesis of Homoallylic ?-Trifluoromethyl Amines by Catalytic Hydroalkylation of Dienes.

Project description:We describe a strategy for the enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of homoallylic ?-trifluoromethyl amines by the catalytic hydroalkylation of terminal dienes. Trifluoromethyl-substituted isatin-derived azadienolate nucleophiles undergo ?-selective alkylation with a Pd-DTBM-SEGPHOS catalyst, which additionally promotes regioselective addition to the diene and delivers products in up to 86% yield, 10:1 dr, and 97.5:2.5 er.

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Trifluoromethylated ?-Amino Acids through the Umpolung Addition of Trifluoromethyl Imines to Carboxylic Acid Derivatives.

Project description:Novel cinchona alkaloid derived chiral phase-transfer catalysts enabled the highly chemo-, regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective umpolung addition of trifluoromethyl imines to ?,?-unsaturated N-acyl pyrroles. With a catalyst loading ranging from 0.2 to 5.0?mol?%, this new catalytic asymmetric transformation provides facile and high-yielding access to highly enantiomerically enriched chiral trifluoromethylated ?-amino acids and ?-lactams.

A one-pot synthesis of 3-trifluoromethyl-2-isoxazolines from trifluoromethyl aldoxime.

Project description:Functionalized 3-trifluoromethyl-2-isoxazolines and 3-trifluoromethylisoxazoles were easily prepared from trifluoromethyl aldoxime 2 under mild conditions by using DIB as oxidant. Theoretical studies of the reactivity of trifluoroacetonitrile oxide 4 toward olefins and alkynes were carried out. The 3-trifluoromethyl-2-isoxazolines were ring-opened with NaBH4 and NiCl2 to yield the corresponding trifluoromethylated γ-amino alcohols.

Cyclopropenes for the Stepwise Synthesis of 1,2,4,5-Tetraarylbenzenes via 1,4-Cyclohexadienes.

Project description:This paper describes a synthetic approach to the synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetraarylbenzene derivatives from cyclopropenes. The Lewis acid-mediated dimerization of cyclopropenes gives tricyclo[3.1.0.02,4]hexane derivatives. The subsequent thermal ring-opening reaction under solvent-free conditions gives 1,4-cyclohexadienes bearing quaternary carbons. The novel Br2-mediated oxidative rearrangement of 1,4-cyclohexadienes takes place to give 1,2,4,5-tetraarylbenzene derivatives in high to excellent yields.

Synthesis of new triazole-based trifluoromethyl scaffolds.

Project description:Trifluoromethyl propargylamines react with various azide derivatives to afford 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles through a Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. The reaction is catalyzed by a Cu(I) species in acetonitrile, and the corresponding products are obtained in good yields. This process thus offers an entry to new trifluoromethyl peptidomimetics as interesting scaffolds.

Trisubstituted 2-trifluoromethyl pyrrolidines via catalytic asymmetric Michael addition/reductive cyclization.

Project description:The stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted 2-trifluoromethyl pyrrolidines by asymmetric Michael addition/hydrogenative cyclization is described. The direct organocatalytic addition of 1,1,1-trifluoromethylketones to nitroolefins proceeds under mild reaction conditions and low catalyst loadings to provide Michael adducts in high yield with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity. Catalytic hydrogenation of the Michael adducts stereoselectively generates 2-trifluoromethylated pyrrolidines bearing three contiguous stereocenters. A stereospecific route to epimeric 2-trifluoromethyl pyrrolidines from a common intermediate is described.

Catalytic activation of a single C-F bond in trifluoromethyl arenes.

Project description:Synthetic methods for the direct transformation of ArCF3 to ArCF2R would enable efficient diversification of trifluoromethyl arenes and would be of great utility in medicinal chemistry. Unfortunately, the development of such methods has been hampered by the fundamental properties of C-F bonds, which are exceptionally strong and become stronger with increased fluorination of the carbon atom. Here, we describe a method for the catalytic reduction of ArCF3 to ArCF2H through a highly selective activation of a single C-F bond. Mechanistic studies reveal separate reaction pathways for the formation of ArCF2H and ArCH3 products and point to the formation of an unexpected intermediate as the source of the unusual selectivity for the mono-reduction.

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of quaternary trifluoromethyl α- to ε-amino acid derivatives <i>via</i> umpolung allylation/2-aza-Cope rearrangement.

Project description:In this study, we developed an efficient Ir-catalyzed cascade umpolung allylation/2-aza-Cope rearrangement of tertiary α-trifluoromethyl α-amino acid derivatives for the preparation of a variety of quaternary α-trifluoromethyl α-amino acids in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. The umpolung reactivity empowered by the activation of the key isatin-ketoimine moiety obviates the intractable enantioselectivity control in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric linear α-allylation. In combination with quasi parallel kinetic resolution or kinetic resolution, the generality of this method is further demonstrated by the first preparation of enantioenriched quaternary trifluoromethyl β-, γ-, δ- and ε-amino acid derivatives.

Synthesis of 5,10-bis(Trifluoromethyl) Substituted ?-Octamethylporphyrins and Central-Metal-Dependent Solvolysis of Their meso-Trifluoromethyl Groups.

Project description:5,10-Bistrifluoromethyl substituted ?-octamethylporphyrins were synthesized via a scrambling side reaction of a dipyrromethane precursor in the presence of a large excess of trifluoroacetic acid. Compared with the trans-analogs, the cis-analogs of meso-trifluoromethyl ?-octaalkylporphyrin showed more red-shifted absorption bands. These meso-trifluoromethyl derivatives of ?-octaalkylporphyrins underwent smooth metalation, similar to other common porphyrins, however, the corresponding zinc complexes underwent a type of solvolysis, whereby the trifluoromethyl groups were converted into methoxycarbonyl groups by the methanol used as solvent. UV-visible absorption spectra and X-ray crystal structure analyses revealed that the presence of a methoxycarbonyl substituent did not influence the deformation of the molecular framework and its absorption properties; this is because the methoxycarbonyl has a planar and perpendicular geometry, as opposed to the relatively bulky trifluoromethyl substituent.

Synthesis of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes by (3 + 2) annulation of cyclopropenes with aminocyclopropanes.

Project description:We report the convergent synthesis of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes possessing an all-carbon quaternary center via a (3 + 2) annulation of cyclopropenes with cyclopropylanilines. Using an organic or an iridium photoredox catalyst and blue LED irradiation, good yields were obtained for a broad range of cyclopropene and cyclopropylaniline derivatives. The reaction was highly diastereoselective when using difluorocyclopropenes together with a removable substituent on the cyclopropylaniline, giving access to important building blocks for medicinal chemistry. With efficient methods existing for the synthesis of both reaction partners, our method grants a fast access to highly valuable bicyclic scaffolds with three contiguous stereocenters.
