Stereospecific Isomerization of Allylic Halides via Ion Pairs with Induced Noncovalent Chirality.

ABSTRACT: A regioselective protocol for the synthesis of substituted allylic chlorides, bromides, and fluorides has been established. Remarkably, the method can be applied to the enantioselective synthesis of challenging chiral allylic chlorides. When the allylic halides are treated with the base triazabicyclodecene as the catalyst, a [1,3]-proton shift takes place, giving the corresponding vinyl halides in excellent yields with excellent Z:E ratios. Furthermore, the [1,3]-proton shift takes place with an outstanding level of chirality transfer from chiral allylic alcohols (?98%) to give chiral trifluoromethylated vinyl chlorides.

Asymmetric allylic substitution-isomerization to axially chiral enamides via hydrogen-bonding assisted central-to-axial chirality transfer.

Project description:Axially chiral enamides bearing a N-C axis have been recently studied and were proposed to be valuable chiral building blocks, but a stereoselective synthesis has not been achieved. Here, we report the first enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral enamides via a highly efficient, catalytic approach. In this approach, C(sp2)-N bond formation is achieved through an iridium-catalyzed asymmetric allylation, and then in situ isomerization of the initial products through an organic base promoted 1,3-H transfer, leading to the enamide products with excellent central-to-axial transfer of chirality. Computational and experimental studies revealed that the 1,3-H transfer occurs via a stepwise deprotonation/re-protonation pathway with a chiral ion-pair intermediate. Hydrogen bonding interactions with the enamide carbonyl play a significant role in promoting both the reactivity and stereospecificity of the stepwise 1,3-H transfer. The mild and operationally simple formal N-vinylation reaction delivered a series of configurationally stable axially chiral enamides with good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities.

Amino Acid Chirality: Stereospecific Conversion and Physiological Implications.

Project description:The absolute configuration dictates the biological role of chiral molecules in the living world. This is best exemplified by all ribosomally synthesized polypeptides having chiral amino acids only in the l-configuration. However, d-amino acids are also associated with various vital biological processes such as peptidoglycan of the bacterial cell wall, ligands for neurotransmitters, molecules involved in signaling, and precursors of metabolites, to name a few. The occurrence of both l- and d-enantiomers of amino acids in the living systems necessitates the presence of enzymes that exhibit stereoselectivity in recognition of substrates. This mini-review summarizes the overall mechanistic insights into the interconversion of l- and d-amino acids by the amino acid racemases. We discuss the structural, mechanistic, and evolutionary relationship of four crucial enzymes that catalyze the oxidative deamination of l- or d-amino acids and their physiological role in microbes and higher organisms. We highlight the physiological implications of d-amino acid oxidase and d-aspartate oxidase in human health and diseases and their applications as drug targets. Finally, we summarize the potential applications of microbially obtained chiral-selective enzymes as biocatalysts and for various industrial purposes.

Mechanism of an antibody-catalysed allylic isomerization.

Project description:The catalytic antibody 4B2, which was generated against a substituted amidine 1, catalyses the allylic isomerization of beta, gamma-unsaturated ketones with an acceleration factor (k(cat)/k(uncat)) of 1.5x10(3). On the basis of the 'bait and switch' strategy, it was reasoned that the positively charged hapten could elicit, by charge complementarity, an acidic residue (Asp or Glu) in the antibody-binding site in the right position to catalyse this proton transfer reaction. The pH dependence curve of k(cat)/K(m) shows a bell-shaped feature with an optimum at approx. pH 4.5. By cloning and sequencing the light and heavy chains of the 4B2 antibody, we confirmed the presence of several Asp and Glu residues in the complementarity-determining region loops. The antibody catalyses the alpha-proton exchange on the same substrates, demonstrating the involvement of a dienol intermediate in the reaction mechanism. Kinetic studies with (2)H-NMR provide evidence that alpha-proton abstraction is stereospecific. Whether the process involves one or two acid/base residues in this simple proton transfer or whether it is a concerted mechanism is discussed.

Stereospecific Ring Contraction of Bromocycloheptenes through Dyotropic Rearrangements via Nonclassical Carbocation-Anion Pairs.

Project description:Experimental and theoretical evidence is reported for a rare type I dyotropic rearrangement involving a [1,2]-alkene shift, leading to the regio- and stereospecific ring contraction of bromocycloheptenes. This reaction occurs under mild conditions, with or without a Lewis acid catalyst. DFT calculations show that the reaction proceeds through a nonclassical carbocation-anion pair, which is crucial for the low activation barrier and enantiospecificity. The chiral cyclopropylcarbinyl cation may be a transition state or an intermediate, depending on the reaction conditions.

One-Pot Conversion of Allylic Alcohols to ?-Methyl Ketones via Iron-Catalyzed Isomerization-Methylation.

Project description:A one-pot iron-catalyzed conversion of allylic alcohols to ?-methyl ketones has been developed. This isomerization-methylation strategy utilized a (cyclopentadienone)iron(0) carbonyl complex as precatalyst and methanol as the C1 source. A diverse range of allylic alcohols undergoes isomerization-methylation to form ?-methyl ketones in good isolated yields (up to 84% isolated yield).

Stereodivergent Chirality Transfer by Noncovalent Control of Disulfide Bonds.

Project description:Controlling dynamic stereochemistry is an important challenge, as it is not only inherent to protein structure and function but often governs supramolecular systems and self-assembly. Typically, disulfide bonds exhibit stereodivergent behavior in proteins; however, how chiral information is transmitted to disulfide bonds remains unclear. Here, we report that hydrogen bonds are essential in the control of disulfide chirality and enable stereodivergent chirality transfer. The formation of S-S···H-N hydrogen bonds in solution can drive conformational adaption to allow intramolecular chirality transfer, while the formation of C=O···H-N hydrogen bonds results in supramolecular chirality transfer to form antiparallel helically self-assembled solid-state architectures. The dependence on the structural information encoded in the homochiral amino acid building blocks reveals the remarkable dynamic stereochemical space accessible through noncovalent chirality transmission.

Selective cross-coupling of organic halides with allylic acetates.

Project description:A general protocol for the coupling of haloarenes with a variety of allylic acetates is presented. Strengths of the method are a tolerance for electrophilic (ketone, aldehyde) and acidic (sulfonamide, trifluoroacetamide) substrates and the ability to couple with a variety of substituted allylic acetates. Secondary alkyl bromides can also be allylated under slightly modified conditions, demonstrating the generality of the approach. Finally, the coupling of a reactive vinyl halide could be achieved by the use of a very hindered ligand and more reactive, branched allylic acetates.

Stereospecific Allylic Functionalization: The Reactions of Allylboronate Complexes with Electrophiles.

Project description:Allylboronic esters react readily with carbonyls and imines (?-electrophiles), but are unreactive toward a range of other electrophiles. By addition of an aryllithium, the corresponding allylboronate complexes display enhanced nucleophilicity, enabling addition to a range of electrophiles (tropylium, benzodithiolylium, activated pyridines, Eschenmoser's salt, Togni's reagent, Selectfluor, diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (DIAD), MeSX) in high regio- and stereocontrol. This protocol provides access to key new functionalities, including quaternary stereogenic centers bearing moieties such as fluorine and the trifluoromethyl group. The allylboronate complexes were determined to be 7 to 10 orders of magnitude more reactive than the parent boronic ester.
