Multistep synthesis of complex boronic acids from simple MIDA boronates.

ABSTRACT: Due to its sensitivity to most synthetic reagents, it is typically necessary to introduce the boronic acid functional group just prior to its utilization. Overcoming this important limitation, we herein report that air- and chromatographically stable MIDA boronates are compatible with a wide range of common reagents which enables the multistep synthesis of complex boronic acid building blocks from simple B-containing starting materials. X-ray and variable temperature NMR studies link the unique stability of MIDA boronates to a kinetic inaccessibility of the potentially reactive boron p-orbital and/or nitrogen lone pair. These findings were collectively harnessed to achieve a short and modular total synthesis of (+)-crocacin C via the iterative cross-coupling of a structurally complex, MIDA-protected haloboronic acid building block.

A general solution for unstable boronic acids: slow-release cross-coupling from air-stable MIDA boronates.

Project description:Many boronic acids, including 2-heterocyclic, vinyl, and cyclopropyl derivatives, are inherently unstable, which can limit their benchtop storage and/or efficient cross-coupling. We herein report the first general solution to this problem: in situ slow release of unstable boronic acids from the corresponding air-stable MIDA boronates. This remarkably general approach has transformed all three classes of these unstable boronic acids into shelf-stable and highly effective building blocks for cross-coupling with a wide range of aryl and heteroaryl chlorides.

MIDA boronates are hydrolysed fast and slow by two different mechanisms.

Project description:MIDA boronates (N-methylimidodiacetic boronic acid esters) serve as an increasingly general platform for small-molecule construction based on building blocks, largely because of the dramatic and general rate differences with which they are hydrolysed under various basic conditions. Yet the mechanistic underpinnings of these rate differences have remained unclear, which has hindered efforts to address the current limitations of this chemistry. Here we show that there are two distinct mechanisms for this hydrolysis: one is base mediated and the other neutral. The former can proceed more than three orders of magnitude faster than the latter, and involves a rate-limiting attack by a hydroxide at a MIDA carbonyl carbon. The alternative 'neutral' hydrolysis does not require an exogenous acid or base and involves rate-limiting B-N bond cleavage by a small water cluster, (H2O)n. The two mechanisms can operate in parallel, and their relative rates are readily quantified by 18O incorporation. Whether hydrolysis is 'fast' or 'slow' is dictated by the pH, the water activity and the mass-transfer rates between phases. These findings stand to enable, in a rational way, an even more effective and widespread utilization of MIDA boronates in synthesis.

Rapid approach to complex boronic acids.

Project description:The compatibility of free boronic acid building blocks in multicomponent reactions to readily create large libraries of diverse and complex small molecules was investigated. Traditionally, boronic acid synthesis is sequential, synthetically demanding, and time-consuming, which leads to high target synthesis times and low coverage of the boronic acid chemical space. We have performed the synthesis of large libraries of boronic acid derivatives based on multiple chemistries and building blocks using acoustic dispensing technology. The synthesis was performed on a nanomole scale with high synthesis success rates. The discovery of a protease inhibitor underscores the usefulness of the approach. Our acoustic dispensing-enabled chemistry paves the way to highly accelerated synthesis and miniaturized reaction scouting, allowing access to unprecedented boronic acid libraries.

<i>meta</i>-Selective C-H functionalisation of aryl boronic acids directed by a MIDA-derived boronate ester.

Project description:N-Methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) boronates are boronic acid derivatives which are stable to reduction, oxidation and transmetalation. This has led to their widespread use as boronic acid protecting groups (PGs) and in iterative cross-couplings. We describe herein the development of a novel MIDA derivative that acts in a dual manner, as a protecting group and a directing group (DG) for meta C(sp2)-H functionalisation of arylboronic acids. Palladium catalysed C-H alkenylations, acetoxylations and arylations are possible, at room temperature and under aerobic conditions. Deprotection to reveal the functionalised boronic acids is rapid and allows for full recovery of the DG. The technique allows the facile diversification of aryl boronic acids and their subsequent use in a range of reactions or in iterative processes.

Transforming Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings of MIDA boronates into a green technology: no organic solvents.

Project description:New technology has been developed that enables Suzuki-Miyaura couplings involving widely utilized MIDA boronates to be run in water as the only medium, mainly at room temperature. The protocol is such that no organic solvent is involved at any stage; from the reaction through to product isolation. Hence, using the E factor scale as a measure of greenness, the values for these cross-couplings approach zero.

Passerini-type reaction of boronic acids enables α-hydroxyketones synthesis.

Project description:Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) facilitate the rapid and diverse construction of molecular scaffolds with modularity and step economy. In this work, engagement of boronic acids as carbon nucleophiles culminates in a Passerini-type three-component coupling reaction towards the synthesis of an expanded inventory of α-hydroxyketones with skeletal diversity. In addition to the appealing features of MCRs, this protocol portrays good functional group tolerance, broad substrate scope under mild conditions and operational simplicity. The utility of this chemistry is further demonstrated by amenable modifications of bioactive products and pharmaceuticals as well as in the functionalization of products to useful compounds.

Synthesis of [18F]Arenes via the Copper-Mediated [18F]Fluorination of Boronic Acids.

Project description:A copper-mediated radiofluorination of aryl- and vinylboronic acids with K(18)F is described. This method exhibits high functional group tolerance and is effective for the radiofluorination of a range of electron-deficient, -neutral, and -rich aryl-, heteroaryl-, and vinylboronic acids. This method has been applied to the synthesis of [(18)F]FPEB, a PET radiotracer for quantifying metabotropic glutamate 5 receptors.

Isonitrile-Based Multicomponent Synthesis of β-Amino Boronic Acids as β-Lactamase Inhibitors.

Project description:The application of various isonitrile-based multicomponent reactions to protected (2-oxoethyl)boronic acid (as the carbonyl component) is described. The Ugi reaction, both in the four components and in the four centers-three components versions, and the van Leusen reaction, proved effective at providing small libraries of MIDA-protected β-aminoboronic acids. The corresponding free β-aminoboronic acids, quantitatively recovered through basic mild deprotection, were found to be quite stable and were fully characterized, including by 11B-NMR spectroscopy. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, applied both to a MIDA-protected and a free β-aminoboronic acid derivative, provided evidence for different conformations in the solid-state. Finally, the antimicrobial activities of selected compounds were evaluated by measuring their minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values, and the binding mode of the most promising derivative on OXA-23 class D β-lactamase was predicted by a molecular modeling study.

Diversity-oriented synthesis of peptide-boronic acids by a versatile building-block approach.

Project description:A new strategy for the synthesis of peptide-boronic acids (PBAs) is presented. 20 Fmoc-protected natural amino acids with orthogonal side-chain protection were straightforwardly converted into their corresponding boron analogues in three simple steps. Subsequent immobilisation on commercially available 1-glycerol polystyrene resin and on-resin transformations yielded a diversity of sequences in high purity. The strategy eliminates various synthetic obstacles such as multi-step routes, low yields, and inseparable impurities. The described method comprises great potential to be implemented in automated combinatorial approaches by markedly facilitating the access to a variety of PBAs. The coupling of amino acids or other building blocks with α-aminoboronates allows the creation of hybrid molecules with significant potential in various scientific disciplines, such as medicinal chemistry, structural biology, and materials science.
