Effect of the enamine pyramidalization direction on the reactivity of secondary amine organocatalysts.

ABSTRACT: Chiral secondary amines are valuable catalysts for reactions that proceed through an enamine intermediate. Here, we explored the importance of the pyramidalization direction of the enamine-N on the reactivity of chiral enamines with a combination of computational, NMR spectroscopic, and kinetic experiments. Studies with peptidic catalysts that bear cyclic amines with different ring sizes revealed that endo-pyramidalized enamines are significantly more reactive compared to exo-pyramidalized analogs. The results show that the pyramidalization direction can have a greater effect than n→π* orbital overlap on the reactivity of chiral enamines. The data enabled the development of a catalyst with higher reactivity compared to the parent catalyst.

Transfer hydrogenations catalyzed by streptavidin-hosted secondary amine organocatalysts.

Project description:Here, the streptavidin-biotin technology was applied to enable organocatalytic transfer hydrogenation. By introducing a biotin-tethered pyrrolidine (1) to the tetrameric streptavidin (T-Sav), the resulting hybrid catalyst was able to mediate hydride transfer from dihydro-benzylnicotinamide (BNAH) to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. Hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde and some of its aryl-substituted analogues was found to be nearly quantitative. Kinetic measurements revealed that the T-Sav:1 assembly possesses enzyme-like behavior, whereas isotope effect analysis, performed by QM/MM simulations, illustrated that the step of hydride transfer is at least partially rate-limiting. These results have proven the concept that T-Sav can be used to host secondary amine-catalyzed transfer hydrogenations.

Direct observation of an enamine intermediate in amine catalysis.

Project description:An enamine intermediate is believed to be the central feature of biological catalysts, such as aldolases and small molecule amine organocatalysts. Despite decades of investigation of naturally occurring aldolase enzymes and recent studies on designed aldolase antibodies and organocatalysts, direct structural observation of an enamine intermediate has proven to be rare. Herein, we report the observation of a stable enamine intermediate in the crystal structure of an aldolase antibody 33F12 in complex with a 1,3-diketone derivative. This enamine complex structure provides strong evidence that fewer residues are essential for amine catalysis within the hydrophobic environments of this catalytic antibody than speculated for natural aldolase enzymes and should serve to guide future studies aimed at the rational design of these types of catalysts, as well as organocatalysts. Indeed, enamine catalysis in proteins might be more simplistic than previously imagined.

Polymeric Networks Containing Amine Derivatives as Organocatalysts for Knoevenagel Reaction within Continuously Driven Microfluidic Reactors.

Project description:The Knoevenagel reaction is a classic reaction in organic chemistry for the formation of C-C bonds. In this study, various catalytic monomers for Knoevenagel reactions were synthesized and polymerized via photolithography to form polymeric gel dots with a composition of 90% catalyst, 9% gelling agent and 1% crosslinker. Furthermore, these gel dots were inserted into a microfluidic reactor (MFR) and the conversion of the reaction using gel dots as catalysts in the MFR for 8 h at room temperature was studied. The gel dots containing primary amines showed a better conversion of about 83-90% with aliphatic aldehyde and 86-100% with aromatic aldehyde, compared to the tertiary amines (52-59% with aliphatic aldehyde and 77-93% with aromatic aldehydes) which resembles the reactivity of the amines. Moreover, the addition of polar solvent (water) in the reaction mixture and the swelling properties of the gel dots by altering the polymer backbone showed a significant enhancement in the conversion of the reaction, due to the increased accessibility of the catalytic sites in the polymeric network. These results suggested the primary-amine-based catalysts facilitate better conversion compared to tertiary amines and the reaction solvent had a significant influence on organocatalysis to improve the efficiency of MFR.

Secondary amine selective Petasis (SASP) bioconjugation.

Project description:Selective modification of proteins enables synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates, cellular drug delivery and construction of new materials. Many groups have developed methods for selective N-terminal modification without affecting the side chain of lysine by judicious pH control. This is due to lower basicity of the N-terminus relative to lysine side chains. But none of the methods are capable of selective modification of secondary amines or N-terminal proline, which has similar basicity as lysine. Here, we report a secondary amine selective Petasis (SASP) reaction for selective bioconjugation at N-terminal proline. We exploited the ability of secondary amines to form highly electrophilic iminium ions with aldehydes, which rapidly reacted with nucleophilic organoboronates, resulting in robust labeling of N-terminal proline under biocompatible conditions. This is the first time the Petasis reaction has been utilized for selective modification of secondary amines on completely unprotected peptides and proteins under physiological conditions. Peptide screening results showed that the reaction is highly selective for N-terminal proline. There are no other chemical methods reported in literature that are selective for N-terminal proline in both peptides and proteins. This is a multicomponent reaction leading to the synthesis of doubly functionalized bioconjugates in one step that can be difficult to achieve using other methods. The key advantage of the SASP reaction includes its high chemoselective and stereoselective (>99% de) nature, and it affords dual labeled proteins in one pot. The broad utility of this bioconjugation is highlighted for a variety of peptides and proteins, including aldolase and creatine kinase.

Amide nitrogen pyramidalization changes lactam amide spinning.

Project description:Although cis-trans lactam amide rotation is fundamentally important, it has been little studied, except for a report on peptide-based lactams. Here, we find a consistent relationship between the lactam amide cis/trans ratios and the rotation rates between the trans and cis lactam amides upon the lactam chain length of the stapling side-chain of two 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane bicyclic units, linked through a non-planar amide bond. That is, as the chain length increased, the rotational rate of trans to cis lactam amide was decreased, and consequently the trans ratio was increased. This chain length-dependency of the lactam amide isomerization and our simulation studies support the idea that the present lactam amides can spin through 360 degrees as in open-chain amides, due to the occurrence of nitrogen pyramidalization. The tilting direction of the pyramidal amide nitrogen atom of the bicyclic systems is synchronized with the direction of the semicircle-rotation of the amide.

Dynamic Covalent Chemistry of Aldehyde Enamines: Bi<sup>III</sup> - and Sc<sup>III</sup> -Catalysis of Amine-Enamine Exchange.

Project description:The dynamic exchange of enamines from secondary amines and enolizable aldehydes has been demonstrated in organic solvents. The enamine exchange with amines was efficiently catalyzed by Bi(OTf)3 and Sc(OTf)3 (2 mol %) and the equilibria (60 mm) could be attained within hours at room temperature. The formed dynamic covalent systems displayed high stabilities in basic environment with <2 % by-product formation within one week after complete equilibration. This study expands the scope of dynamic C-N bonds from imine chemistry to enamines, enabling further dynamic methodologies in exploration of this important class of structures in systems chemistry.

Chiral Amphiphilic Secondary Amine-Porphyrin Hybrids for Aqueous Organocatalysis.

Project description:Two chiral proline-derived amphiphilic 5-substituted-10,15,20-tris(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrins were prepared, and their pH-dependent supramolecular behavior was studied. In neutral aqueous solutions, the free-base form of the hybrids is highly soluble, allowing enamine-based organocatalysis to take place, whereas under acidic conditions, the porphyrinic protonated core of the hybrid leads to the formation of self-assembled structures, so that the hybrids flocculate and their catalytic activity is fully suppressed. The low degree of chirality transfer observed for aqueous Michael and aldol reactions strongly suggests that these reactions take place under true "in water" organocatalytic conditions. The highly insoluble catalyst aggregates can easily be separated from the reaction products by centrifugation of the acidic reaction mixtures, and after neutralization and desalting, the sodium salts of the sulfonated amine-porphyrin hybrids, retaining their full catalytic activity, can be recovered in high yield.

Investigations Concerning the Syntheses of TADDOL-Derived Secondary Amines and Their Use To Access Novel Chiral Organocatalysts.

Project description:A structurally carefully diversified library of novel TADDOL-derived chiral secondary amines was synthesized and investigated for their applicability to obtain new organocatalysts like chiral Lewis bases and chiral phase-transfer catalysts. The scope and limitations of the developed syntheses routes to access these catalysts as well their catalytic performance in different benchmark reactions were systematically investigated. The most powerful of the catalysts prepared was found to be highly useful for the phase-transfer catalyzed α-alkylation of glycine Schiff base (high yields and up to 93% ee).
