Catalytic Nanoassemblies Formed by Short Peptides Promote Highly Enantioselective Transfer Hydrogenation.

ABSTRACT: Self-assembly enables formation of incredibly diverse supramolecular structures with practically important functions from simple and inexpensive building blocks. Here, we show how a semirational, bottom-up approach to create emerging properties can be extended to a design of highly enantioselective catalytic nanoassemblies. The designed peptides comprising as few as two amino acid residues spontaneously self-assemble in the presence of metal ions to form supramolecular, vesicle-like nanoassemblies that promote transfer hydrogenation of ketones in an aqueous phase with excellent conversion rates and enantioselectivities (>90% ee).

Highly Enantioselective Iridium-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Cyclic Enamides.

Project description:The MaxPHOX-Ir catalyst system provided the highest selectivity ever reported for the reduction of cyclic enamides derived from ?- and ?-tetralones. This result indicates that iridium catalysts are also proficient in reducing alkenes bearing metal-coordinating groups. In the present system, selectivity was pressure-dependent: In most cases, a decrease in the H2 pressure to 3?bar resulted in an increase in enantioselectivity. Moreover, the process can be carried out in environmentally friendly solvents, such as methanol and ethyl acetate, with no loss of selectivity.

Catalytic enantioselective synthesis of fluoromethylated stereocenters by asymmetric hydrogenation.

Project description:Fluoromethyl groups possess specific steric and electronic properties and serve as a bioisostere of alcohol, thiol, nitro, and other functional groups, which are important in an assortment of molecular recognition processes. Herein we report a catalytic method for the asymmetric synthesis of a variety of enantioenriched products bearing fluoromethylated stereocenters with excellent yields and enantioselectivities. Various N,P-ligands were designed and applied in the hydrogenation of fluoromethylated olefins and vinyl fluorides.

Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation of Arenes and Heteroarenes.

Project description:Transfer hydrogenation reactions are of great interest to reduce diverse molecules under mild reaction conditions. To date, this type of reaction has only been successfully applied to alkenes, alkynes and polarized unsaturated compounds such as ketones, imines, pyridines, etc. The reduction of benzene derivatives by transfer hydrogenation has never been described, which is likely due to the high energy barrier required to dearomatize these compounds. In this context, we have developed a catalytic transfer hydrogenation reaction for the reduction of benzene derivatives and heteroarenes to form complex 3-dimensional scaffolds bearing various functional groups at room temperature without needing compressed hydrogen gas.

Highly Enantioselective One-Pot Synthesis of Chiral β-Heterosubstituted Alcohols via Ruthenium-Prolinamide-Catalyzed Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation.

Project description:The utility of a chiral Ru-prolinamide catalytic system has been demonstrated in one-pot synthesis of optically active β-triazolylethanol and β-hydroxy sulfone derivatives. The said methodology proceeds through asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of in situ formed ketones of the corresponding chiral products. Various chiral prolinamide ligands were screened, and ligand L6 with isopropyl groups substituted at the ortho position has shown excellent activity at 60 °C in aqueous medium producing up to 95% yield and 99.9% enantioselectivity.

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (-)-Finerenone Using Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation.

Project description:(-)-Finerenone is a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist currently in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes. It contains an unusual dihydronaphthyridine core. We report a 6-step synthesis of (-)-finerenone, which features an enantioselective partial transfer hydrogenation of a naphthyridine using a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst with a Hantzsch ester. The process is complicated by the fact that the naphthyridine exists as a mixture of two atropisomers that react at different rates and with different selectivities. The intrinsic kinetic resolution was converted into a kinetic dynamic resolution at elevated temperature, which enabled us to obtain (-)-finerenone in both high yield and high enantioselectivity. DFT calculations have revealed the origin of selectivity.

Cobalt-catalyzed highly enantioselective hydrogenation of ?,?-unsaturated carboxylic acids.

Project description:Asymmetric hydrogenation of ?,?-unsaturated acids catalyzed by noble metals has been well established, whereas, the asymmetric hydrogenation with earth-abundant-metal was rarely reported. Here, we describe a cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of ?,?-unsaturated carboxylic acids. By using chiral cobalt catalyst bearing electron-donating diphosphine ligand, high activity (up to 1860 TON) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99% ee) are observed. Furthermore, the cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation is successfully applied to a broad spectrum of ?,?-unsaturated carboxylic acids, such as various ?-aryl and ?-alkyl cinnamic acid derivatives, ?-oxy-functionalized ?,?-unsaturated acids, ?-substituted acrylic acids and heterocyclic ?,?-unsaturated acids (30 examples). The synthetic utility of the protocol is highlighted by the synthesis of key intermediates for chiral drugs (6 cases). Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the carboxy group may be involved in the control of the reactivity and enantioselectivity through an interaction with the metal centre.

Highly Enantioselective Iridium-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Conjugated Trisubstituted Enones.

Project description:Asymmetric hydrogenation of conjugated enones is one of the most efficient and straightforward methods to prepare optically active ketones. In this study, chiral bidentate Ir-N,P complexes were utilized to access these scaffolds for ketones bearing the stereogenic center at both the α- and β-positions. Excellent enantiomeric excesses, of up to 99%, were obtained, accompanied with good to high isolated yields. Challenging dialkyl substituted substrates, which are difficult to hydrogenate with satisfactory chiral induction, were hydrogenated in a highly enantioselective fashion.

Mechanochemical Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation of Aromatic Nitro Derivatives.

Project description:Mechanochemical ball milling catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) of aromatic nitro compounds using readily available and cheap ammonium formate as the hydrogen source is demonstrated as a simple, facile and clean approach for the synthesis of substituted anilines and selected pharmaceutically relevant compounds. The scope of mechanochemical CTH is broad, as the reduction conditions tolerate various functionalities, for example nitro, amino, hydroxy, carbonyl, amide, urea, amino acid and heterocyclic. The presented methodology was also successfully integrated with other types of chemical reactions previously carried out mechanochemically, such as amide bond formation by coupling amines with acyl chlorides or anhydrides and click-type coupling reactions between amines and iso(thio)cyanates. In this way, we showed that active pharmaceutical ingredients Procainamide and Paracetamol could be synthesized from the respective nitro-precursors on milligram and gram scale in excellent isolated yields.

Highly enantioselective catalytic synthesis of chiral pyridines.

Project description:General methods to prepare chiral pyridine derivatives are greatly sought after due to their significance in medicinal chemistry. Here, we report highly enantioselective catalytic transformations of poorly reactive ?-substituted alkenyl pyridines to access a wide range of alkylated chiral pyridines. The simple methodology involves reactivity enhancement via Lewis acid (LA) activation, the use of readily available and highly reactive Grignard reagents, and a copper-chiral diphosphine ligand catalyst. Apart from allowing the introduction of different linear, branched, cyclic, and functionalised alkyl chains at the ?-position of alkenyl pyridines, the catalytic system also shows high functional group tolerance.

Highly enantioselective hydrogenation of enamides catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids.

Project description:A highly enantioselective hydrogenation of enamides catalyzed by a dual chiral-achiral acid system was developed. By employing a substoichiometric amount of a chiral phosphoric acid and acetic acid, catalyst loadings as low as 1 mol % of the chiral catalyst were sufficient to provide excellent yield and enantioselectivity of the reduction product.
