Modular Synthesis of Polycyclic Alkaloid Scaffolds via an Enantioselective Dearomative Cascade.

ABSTRACT: The polycyclic core of the akuammiline alkaloids can be synthesized from simple tryptamine and tryptophol derivatives via a Ag(I)-catalyzed enantioselective dearomative cyclization cascade sequence. The complex tetracyclic scaffolds are prepared via a rapid, versatile, three-step modular synthesis from simple commercially available indole derivatives in high yields and enantiomeric excess (up to 99% yield and >99% ee).

Synthesis of Functionalized Pyrrolidinone Scaffolds via Smiles-Truce Cascade.

Project description:Arylsulfonamides have been found to react with cyclopropane diesters under simple base treatment to give α-arylated pyrrolidinones. This one-pot process comprises three steps: nucleophilic ring-opening of the cyclopropane, reaction of the resulting enolate in a Smiles-Truce aryl transfer, and lactam formation. The reaction represents a new, operationally simple approach to biologically active pyrrolidinones and expands Smiles-Truce arylation methods to encompass sp3 electrophilic centers in cascade processes.

Synthesis of polycyclic nitrogen heterocycles via alkene aminopalladation/carbopalladation cascade reactions.

Project description:A new method for the synthesis of tricyclic nitrogen heterocycles from N,2-diallylaniline derivatives is described. These transformations proceed via sequential alkene aminopalladation of an intermediate L(n)Pd(Ar)(NRR') species followed by alkene carbopalladation of the resulting L(n)Pd(Ar)(R) complex. Both alkene insertion steps occur in preference to C-N or C-C bond-forming reductive elimination. An unusual 1,3-palladium shift occurs when 2-Allyl-N-(2-vinylphenyl)aniline is employed as substrate, which yields a tetracyclic molecule with three contiguous stereocenters.

Enantioselective synthesis of an ophiobolin sesterterpene via a programmed radical cascade.

Project description:Cyclase enzymes weave simple polyprenyl chains into the elaborate polycyclic ring systems of terpenes, a sequence that is often difficult to emulate under abiotic conditions. Here we report a disparate synthetic approach to complex terpenes whereby simple prenyl-derived chains are cyclized using radical, rather than cationic, reaction pathways. This strategy allowed us to efficiently forge the intricate 5-8-5 fused ring systems found in numerous complex natural product classes and also enabled a nine-step total synthesis of (-)-6-epi-ophiobolin N, a member of the large family of cytotoxic ophiobolin sesterterpenes. A small-molecule thiol catalyst was found to override the inherent diastereoselectivity observed during a reductive radical cascade cyclization process. This work lays the foundation for efficient synthesis of terpenoid ring systems of interest in medicinal research, particularly those that have been historically challenging to access.

Modular synthesis of unsaturated aza-heterocycles via copper catalyzed multicomponent cascade reaction.

Project description:The unsaturated aza-heterocycles such as tetrahydropyridines pose significant applications in both drug discovery and development. However, the methods to construct polyfunctionalized tetrahydropyridines are still limited. Herein, we report a modular synthesis of tetrahydropyridines via copper catalyzed multicomponent radical cascade reaction. The reaction features mild conditions and broad substrate scope. In addition, the reaction could scale up to gram scale with similar yield. A variety of 1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines with C3 and C5 substituents could be assembled from simple starting materials. More importantly, the products could serve as versatile intermediate to access various functionalized aza-heterocycles which further demonstrates its utility.

Synthesis of Polycyclic Nitrogen Heterocycles via Cascade Pd-Catalyzed Alkene Carboamination/Diels-Alder Reactions.

Project description:Cascade Pd-catalyzed alkene carboamination/Diels-Alder reactions between bromodienes and amines bearing two pendant alkenes are described. These transformations generate 4 bonds, 3 rings, and 3-5 stereocenters to afford polycyclic nitrogen heterocycles with high diastereoselectivity.

Modular Three-Component Synthesis of 4-Aminoquinolines via an Imidoylative Sonogashira/Cyclization Cascade.

Project description:We developed a one-pot, two-stage synthetic route to substituted 4-aminoquinolines involving an imidoylative Sonogashira coupling followed by acid-mediated cyclization. This three-component reaction affords pharmaceutically valuable 4-aminoquinolines in a one-pot procedure from readily available starting materials. The reaction tolerates various substituents on the arene as well as the use of secondary and even primary isocyanides. Additionally, the wide tolerance for functionalized isocyanides allows for the one-pot synthesis of various substituted chloroquine analogues as well as other medicinally relevant products.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Isocarbostyril Alkaloids and Analogs Using Catalytic Dearomative Functionalization of Benzene.

Project description:Enantioselective total syntheses of the anticancer isocarbostyril alkaloids (+)-7-deoxypancratistatin, (+)-pancratistatin, (+)-lycoricidine, and (+)-narciclasine are described. Our strategy for accessing this unique class of natural products is based on the development of a Ni-catalyzed dearomative trans-1,2-carboamination of benzene. The effectiveness of this dearomatization approach is notable, as only two additional olefin functionalizations are needed to construct the fully decorated aminocyclitol cores of these alkaloids. Installation of the lactam ring has been achieved through several pathways and a direct interconversion between natural products was established via a late-stage C-7 cupration. Using this synthetic blueprint, we were able to produce natural products on a gram scale and provide tailored analogs with improved activity, solubility, and metabolic stability.

A Modular Cascade Synthetic Strategy Toward Structurally Constrained Boron-Doped Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.

Project description:A novel synthetic strategy was developed for the construction of difficult-to-access structurally constrained boron-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (sc-B-PAHs) via a cascade reaction from the readily available ortho-aryl-substituted diarylalkynes. This domino process involves borylative cyclization, 1,4-boron migration and successive two-fold electrophilic borylation. Two types of sc-B-PAHs bearing B-doped [4]helicene (1 a-1 i) or BN-doped [4]helicene (1 n-1 t) and double [4]helicene (1 u-1 v) are constructed by this cascade reaction. Remarkably, this synthetic strategy is characterized by modest yields (20-50 %) and broad substrate scope (18 examples) with versatile functional group tolerance. The resultant sc-B-PAHs show good stability under ambient conditions and are thoroughly investigated by X-ray crystallography, UV/Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. Interestingly enough, BN-doped [4]helicene 1 o forms a unique alternating π-stacked dimer of enantiomers within a helical columnar superstructure, while BN-doped double [4]helicene 1 u establishes an unprecedented π-stacked trimeric sandwich structure with a rare 2D lamellar π-stacking. The synthetic approach reported herein represents a powerful tool for the rapid generation of novel sc-B-PAHs, which are highly attractive for the elucidation of the structure-property relationship and for potential optoelectronic applications.
