How the Lewis Base F^- Catalyzes the 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition between Carbon Dioxide and Nitrilimines.

ABSTRACT: The mechanism of the Lewis base F^- catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between CO₂ and nitrilimines is interrogated using DFT calculations. F^- activates the nitrilimine, not CO₂ as proposed in the literature, and imparts a significant rate enhancement for the cycloaddition. The origin of this catalysis is in the strength of the primary orbital interactions between the reactants. The Lewis base activated nitrilimine-F^- has high-lying filled FMOs. The smaller FMO-LUMO gap promotes a rapid nucleophilic attack and overall cycloaddition with CO₂.

Stereoselective Lewis base catalyzed formal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine imines with mixed anhydrides.

Project description:Stereoselective synthesis of pyrazolidinones via dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine imines with active esters under Lewis base catalysis is presented. The active esters are readily generated in situ from the corresponding acids. Products, which are obtained with excellent diastereocontrol and high enantioselectivity, contain along with the pyrazolidinone core also the tetrahydroisoquinoline structural motif. Theoretical studies give insight into the mechanism of the formal cycloaddition reaction.

Lewis Acid-Catalyzed 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Bicyclobutanes with Isatogens: Access to Tetracyclic 2-Oxa-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes.

Project description:The 'escape from flatland' concept has gained significant traction in modern drug discovery, emphasizing the importance of three-dimensional molecular architectures, which serve as saturated bioisosteres of benzenoids. Bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs), known for their high ring strain and numerous reactivities, offer a simple yet effective method for synthesizing these bicyclic frameworks. Although (3 + 2) annulations involving BCBs have been extensively studied, the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of BCBs leading to (3 + 3) annulation has received limited attention. Herein, we report the Lewis acid-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of BCBs with isatogens allowing the synthesis of biologically relevant tetracyclic 2-oxa-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes. Moreover, the reaction can be performed in a one-pot process by the in situ generation of isatogens from 2-alkynylated nitrobenzenes. Additionally, preliminary mechanistic and photophysical studies of the (3 + 3) annulated products and experiments toward the asymmetric version of this reaction are also provided.

Cyaphide-Azide 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition Reactions: Scope and Applicability.

Project description:Several examples of the cyaphide-azide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction to afford metallo-triazaphospholes are reported. The gold(I) triazaphospholes Au(IDipp)(CPN3 R) (IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene; R=t Bu, Ad, Dipp), magnesium(II) triazaphospholes, {Mg(Dipp NacNac)(CPN3 R)}2 (Dipp NacNac=CH{C(CH3 )N(Dipp)}2 , Dipp=2,6-diisopropylphenyl; R=t Bu, Bn), and germanium(II) triazaphosphole Ge(Dipp NacNac)-(CPN3 t Bu) can be prepared straightforwardly, under mild conditions and in good yields, in a manner reminiscent of the classic alkyne-azide click reaction (albeit without a catalyst). This reactivity can be extended to compounds with two azide functional groups such as 1,3-diazidobenzene. It is shown that the resulting metallo-triazaphospholes can be used as precursors to carbon-functionalized species, including protio- and iodo-triazaphospholes.

Copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 1,3-enynes and azomethine ylides.

Project description:Herein, we report a copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides and 1,3-enynes, which provides a series of chiral poly-substituted pyrrolidines in high regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivities. Both 4-aryl-1,3-enynes and 4-silyl-1,3-enynes serve as suitable dipolarophiles while 4-alkyl-1,3-enynes are inert. Moreover, the method is successfully applied in the construction of both tetrasubstituted stereogenic carbon centers and chiral spiro pyrrolidines. The DFT calculations are also conducted, which imply a concerted mechanism rather than a stepwise mechanism. Finally, various transformations started from the pyrrolidine bearing a triethylsilylethynyl group and centered on the alkyne group are achieved, which compensates for the inertness of 4-alkyl-1,3-enynes in the present reaction.

1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition with Diazo Groups: Noncovalent Interactions Overwhelm Strain.

Project description:Like azides, diazoacetamides undergo 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions with oxanorbornadienes (OND) in a reaction that is accelerated by the relief of strain in the transition state. The cycloaddition of a diazoacetamide with unstrained ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-butynoate is, however, 35-fold faster than with the analogous OND because of favorable interactions with the fluoro groups. Its rate constant (k = 0.53 M(-1) s(-1) in methanol) is comparable to those of strain-promoted azide-cyclooctyne cycloadditions.

Isoxazolodihydropyridinones: 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides onto 2,4-dioxopiperidines.

Project description:Practical and efficient methods have been developed for the diversity-oriented synthesis of isoxazolodihydropyridinones via the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides onto 2,4-dioxopiperidines. A select few of these isoxazolodihydropyridinones were further elaborated with triazoles by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reactions. A total of 70 compounds and intermediates were synthesized and analyzed for drug likeness. Sixty-four of these novel compounds were submitted to the NIH Molecular Libraries Small Molecule Repository for high-throughput biological screening.

Targeted 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with acrolein for cancer prodrug activation.

Project description:Cytotoxic anticancer drugs used in chemotherapy are often antiproliferative agents that preferentially kill rapidly growing cancer cells. Their mechanism relies mainly on the enhanced proliferation rate of cancer cells and is not genuinely selective for cancer cells. Therefore, these drugs can also significantly affect healthy cells. Prodrug therapy provides an alternative approach using a less cytotoxic form of anticancer drug. It involves the synthesis of inactive drug derivatives which are converted to an active form inside the body and, preferably, only at the site of cancerous tissues, thereby reducing adverse drug reaction (ADR) events. Herein, we demonstrate a prodrug activation strategy by utilizing the reaction between aryl azide and endogenous acrolein. Since acrolein is generally overproduced by most cancer cells, we anticipate our strategy as a starting point for further applications in mouse models with various cancers. Furthermore, cancer drugs that have had therapeutic index challenges might be reconsidered for application by utilizing our strategy.

Synthesis of functionalized organotrifluoroborates via the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides.

Project description:[reaction: see text] We have successfully prepared potassium azidoalkyltrifluoroborates from the corresponding halogen compounds in 94-98% yields through a nucleophilic substitution reaction with NaN(3). In the presence of various alkynes and Cu(I) as a catalyst, these azidotrifluoroborates easily formed 1,4-disubstituted organo-[1,2,3]-triazol-1-yl-trifluoroborates in 85-98% yields. This method was then developed into a facile one-pot synthesis for the preparation of various organo-[1,2,3]-triazol-1-yl-trifluoroborates using haloalkyltrifluoroborates as the starting materials.

MOF-Derived Cu@N-C Catalyst for 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition Reaction.

Project description:Cu(im)2-derived Cu@N-C composites were used for the first time as efficient heterogeneous catalysts for one-pot 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes, aryl halides, and sodium azide to preparation of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles with broad substrate scope and high yields. The catalyst can be easily reused without the changes of structure and morphology, and the heterogeneity nature was confirmed from the catalyst recyclability and metal leaching test.
