Superelectrophiles in Synthesis: Preparation of Aromatic Imides.

ABSTRACT: Aromatic carboxylic acids are found to undergo reactions with isocyanates, wherein triflic acid promotes the formation of aromatic imide products in fair to good yields. It is proposed that the carboxylic acid group directs the isocyanate electrophile to the ortho-position. This is thought to occur by the formation of a temporary carbamic acid anhydride group, which cleaves upon ortho-functionalization. A series of imide products are synthesized, and the synthesis of a potential selective inhibitor of tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase II is performed.

Radical-mediated dehydrative preparation of cyclic imides using (NH4)2S2O8-DMSO: application to the synthesis of vernakalant.

Project description:Ammonium persulfate-dimethyl sulfoxide (APS-DMSO) has been developed as an efficient and new dehydrating reagent for a convenient one-pot process for the synthesis of miscellaneous cyclic imides in high yields starting from readily available primary amines and cyclic anhydrides. A plausible radical mechanism involving DMSO has been proposed. The application of this facile one-pot imide forming process has been demonstrated for a practical synthesis of vernakalant.

Synthesis of alpha-keto-imides via oxidation of ynamides.

Project description:A de novo preparation of alpha-keto-imides via ynamide oxidation is described. With a number of alkyne oxidation conditions screened, a highly efficient RuO2-NaIO4 mediated oxidation and a DMDO oxidation have been identified to tolerate a wide range of ynamide types. In addition to accessing a wide variety of alpha-keto-imides, the RuO2-NaIO4 protocol provides a novel entry to the vicinal tricarbonyl motif via oxidation of push-pull ynamides, and imido acylsilanes from silyl-substituted ynamides. Chemoselective oxidation of ynamides containing olefins can be achieved by using DMDO, while the RuO2-NaIO4 protocol is not effective. These studies provide further support for the synthetic utility of ynamides.

Amidine dications as superelectrophiles.

Project description:2-Dimethylalkylammonium pyridinium and 2-dimethylalkylammonium pyrimidinium ditriflate salts are very powerful methylating agents toward phosphorus (triphenylphosphine) and nitrogen (triethylamine) nucleophiles. In competition experiments with triethylamine as nucleophile, these N-methyl disalts are more reactive methylating agents than dimethyl sulfate. Reaction of the pyridinium dications with water as an oxygen nucleophile leads to attack at the 2-position of the heteroaromatic ring and displacement of an ammonium group; 2-hydroxypyridinium compounds are formed in the first instance, which are easily converted to 2-pyridones. Extending the scope of the reactions, a tricationic 2,6-bis(dimethylalkylammonium)pyridinium salt has also been prepared and characterized and its reactivity as a methylating agent assessed in comparison with that of the dications.

Preparation of cyclic imides from alkene-tethered amides: application of homogeneous Cu(ii) catalytic systems.

Project description:A Cu-based homogeneous catalytic system was proposed for the preparation of imides from alkene-tethered amides. Here, O2 acted as a terminal oxidant and a cheap and easily available oxygen source. The cleavage of C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bonds and the formation of C-N bonds were catalyzed by Cu(ii) salts with proper nitrogen-containing ligands under 100 °C. The synthesis approach has potential applications in pharmaceutical syntheses. Moreover, scaled-up experiments confirmed the practical applicability.

Superelectrophiles and the effects of trifluoromethyl substituents.

Project description:Trifluoromethyl-substituted superelectrophiles were generated in superacid (CF(3)SO(3)H), and their chemistry was examined. The strong electron-withdrawing properties of the trifluoromethyl group are found to enhance the electrophilic character at cationic sites in superelectrophiles. This leads to greater positive-charge delocalization in the superelectrophiles. These effects are manifested by the unusual chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivities shown by the superelectrophiles in chemical reactions.

Preparation of Polyfunctionalized Aromatic Nitriles from Aryl Oxazolines.

Project description:A selective ortho,ortho'-functionalization of readily available aryl oxazolines by two successive magnesiations with sBu2 Mg in toluene followed by trapping reactions with electrophiles, such as (hetero)aryl iodides or bromides, iodine, tosyl cyanide, ethyl cyanoformate or allylic bromides (39 examples, 62-99 % yield) is reported. Treatment of these aryl oxazolines with excess oxalyl chloride and catalytic amounts of DMF (50 °C, 4 h) provided the corresponding nitriles (36 examples, 73-99 % yield). Conversions of these nitriles to valuable heterocycles are reported, and a tentative mechanism is proposed.

A highly regio- and stereoselective synthesis of ?-fluorinated imides via fluorination of chiral enamides.

Project description:A highly ?-facial selective and regioselective fluorination of chiral enamides is described. The reaction involves an enantioselective fluorination exclusively at the electron-rich enamide olefin with N-F reagents such as Selectfluor and N-fluoro-benzenesulfonimide [NFSI] accompanied by trapping of the ?-fluoro-iminium cationic intermediate with water. The resulting N,O-hemiacetal could be oxidized using Dess-Martin periodinane, leading to an asymmetric sequence for syntheses of chiral ?-fluoro-imides and optically enriched ?-fluoro-ketones.

Charge delocalization and enhanced acidity in tricationic superelectrophiles.

Project description:This Article presents the results from studies related to the chemistry of tricationic superelectrophiles. A series of triaryl methanols were ionized in Brønsted superacids, and the corresponding tricationic intermediates were formed. The trications are found to participate in two types of reactions; both are characteristic of highly charged organic cations. One set of reactions occurs through charge migration. A second set of reactions occurs through deprotonation of an unusually acidic site on the tricationic species. One of the tricationic intermediates has been directly observed by low temperature NMR spectroscopy. These highly charged ions and their reactions have also been studied using density functional theory calculations. As a result of charge migration, electron density at a carbocation site is found to increase with progression from monocationic to pentacationic structures.

Synthesis of N-Protected 1-Aminoalkylphosphonium Salts from Amides, Carbamates, Lactams, or Imides.

Project description:This report describes the development and optimization of the one-pot method for the synthesis of N-protected 1-aminoalkylphosphonium salts based on the three-component coupling of aldehydes and either amides, carbamates, lactams, imides, or urea in the presence of triarylphosphonium salts. The proposed strategy is very efficient and easy to carry out even on a larger scale (20 g) in any typical laboratory. Most reactions occur at temperatures between 50 and 100 °C in a short time (1-2 h) without requiring any catalyst, and simple workup procedures afford good to excellent yields. The exceptions are condensations with imides, which require much higher temperatures (150-170 °C) and longer reaction times (even 30 h). The possibility of carrying out the synthesis under solvent-free conditions (neat reactions) is also demonstrated. It is especially important for less reactive substrates (imides), and reactions required high temperature (or generally harsher conditions). Finally, we prove the developed one-pot methodology can be successfully applied for the synthesis of structurally diverse N-protected 1-aminoalkylphosphonium salts. Mechanistic studies showed the intermediate products of described couplings are 1-hydroxyalkylphosphonium salts, not N-hydroxyalkylamides, -imides, etc., as initially expected.

Direct Synthesis of ?-Thio Aromatic Acids from Aromatic Amino Acids.

Project description:Modified amino acids are useful synthetic components in both chemistry and biology. Here we describe a simple, scalable two-step procedure to generate ?-thio aromatic acids from aromatic amino acids with yields of up to 96%. Diazotization and ?-lactone mediated bromination efficiently form the ?-bromo acid with retention of configuration. Thiol substitution with mild reagents such as sodium hydrosulfide or sodium trithiocarbonate provides the inverted, free ?-thio acid. The mildly acidic soft nucleophile can then be utilized in many synthetic applications.
