Stereoselective synthesis of unnatural α-amino acid derivatives through photoredox catalysis.

ABSTRACT: A protocol for stereoselective C-radical addition to a chiral glyoxylate-derived N-sulfinyl imine was developed through visible light-promoted photoredox catalysis, providing a convenient method for the synthesis of unnatural α-amino acids. The developed protocol allows the use of ubiquitous carboxylic acids as radical precursors without prior derivatization. The protocol utilizes near-stoichiometric amounts of the imine and the acid radical precursor in combination with a catalytic amount of an organic acridinium-based photocatalyst. Alternative mechanisms for the developed transformation are discussed and corroborated by experimental and computational studies.

Synthesis of α-Fluoro-α-Amino Acid Derivatives via Photoredox-Catalyzed Carbofluorination.

Project description:A mild, metal-free, regioselective carbofluorination of dehydroalanine derivatives has been developed. Alkyl radicals resulting from visible-light photoredox catalysis engage in a radical conjugate addition to dehydroalanine, with subsequent fluorination of the newly generated radical to afford an α-fluoro-α-amino acid. By using a highly oxidizing organic photocatalyst, this process incorporates non-stabilized primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl radicals derived from commercially available alkyltrifluoroborates to furnish a wide range of fluorinated unnatural amino acids.

Visible-light photoredox synthesis of unnatural chiral α-amino acids.

Project description:Unnatural chiral α-amino acids are widely used in fields of organic chemistry, biochemistry and medicinal chemistry, and their synthesis has attracted extensive attention. Although the asymmetric synthesis provides some efficient protocols, noble and elaborate catalysts, ligands and additives are usually required which leads to high cost. Distinctly, it is attractive to make unnatural chiral α-amino acids from readily available natural α-amino acids through keeping of the existing chiral α-carbon. However, it is a great challenge to construct them under mild conditions. In this paper, 83 unnatural chiral α-amino acids were prepared at room temperature under visible-light assistance. The protocol uses two readily available genetically coded proteinogenic amino acids, L-aspartic acid and glutamic acid derivatives as the chiral sources and radical precursors, olefins, alkynyl and alkenyl sulfones, and 2-isocyanobiphenyl as the radical acceptors, and various unnatural chiral α-amino acids were prepared in good to excellent yields. The simple protocol, mild conditions, fast reactions, and high efficiency make the method an important strategy for synthesis of diverse unnatural chiral α-amino acids.

Unnatural Amino Acid Derivatives through Click Chemistry: Synthesis of Triazolylalanine Analogues.

Project description:A novel tert-butyl 2-(1-oxoisolndolin-2-yl)acetate derivative is selectively alkylated with propargyl bromide in the presence of lithium hexamethyldisilazide. After removal of the tert-butyl protecting group, the resulting N-isoindolinyl (ethynylalanine) derivative is reacted with a series of azides under 'click conditions'. The click reactions afford an array of N-isoindolinyl-1,2,3-triazolylalanine derivatives as the free carboxylic adds. Following esterification, the N-isoindolinone protecting group is then transformed into the more easily removable phthaloyl group by selective oxidation at the benzylic position.

Stereoselective synthesis of perillaldehyde-based chiral ?-amino acid derivatives through conjugate addition of lithium amides.

Project description:The Michael addition of dibenzylamine to (+)-tert-butyl perillate (3) and to (+)-tert-butyl phellandrate (6), derived from (S)-(-)-perillaldehyde (1), resulted in diastereomeric ?-amino esters 7A-D in a moderately stereospecific reaction in a ratio of 76:17:6:1. After separation of the diastereoisomers, the major product, cis isomer 7A, was quantitatively isomerized to the minor component, trans-amino ester 7D. All four isomers were transformed to the corresponding ?-amino acids 10A-D, which are promising building blocks for the synthesis of ?-peptides and 1,3-heterocycles in three steps. The steric effects of the isopropyl group at position 4 and of the ?-methyl substituent of (R)-N-benzyl-N-?-methylbenzylamine on the reactivity were also studied and, upon application of a chiral amine, excellent stereoselectivity of the conjugate addition was observed. Amino ester 11 was obtained as a single product and transformed to the corresponding amino acids 10A and 10D in good yields on the gram scale.

Directed ?-C(sp3)-H Alkylation of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives through Visible Light Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:Visible light photoredox catalysis enables direct ?- C(sp3)-H alkylation of saturated aliphatic carbonyl compounds. Electron-deficient alkenes are used as the coupling partners in this reaction. Distinguished site selectivity is controlled by the predominant 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer of an amidyl radical generated in situ.

Tandem Palladium and Isothiourea Relay Catalysis: Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Amino Acid Derivatives via Allylic Amination and [2,3]-Sigmatropic Rearrangement.

Project description:A tandem relay catalytic protocol using both Pd and isothiourea catalysis has been developed for the enantioselective synthesis of α-amino acid derivatives containing two stereogenic centers from readily accessible N,N-disubstituted glycine aryl esters and allylic phosphates. The optimized process uses a bench-stable succinimide-based Pd precatalyst (FurCat) to promote Pd-catalyzed allylic ammonium salt generation from the allylic phosphate and the glycine aryl ester. Subsequent in situ enantioselective [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement catalyzed by the isothiourea benzotetramisole forms syn-α-amino acid derivatives with high diastereo- and enantioselectivity. This methodology is most effective using 4-nitrophenylglycine esters and tolerates a variety of substituted cinnamic and styrenyl allylic ethyl phosphates. The use of challenging unsymmetrical N-allyl-N-methylglycine esters is also tolerated under the catalytic relay conditions without compromising stereoselectivity.

Stereoselective radical amination of electron-deficient C(sp3)-H bonds by Co(II)-based metalloradical catalysis: direct synthesis of ?-amino acid derivatives via ?-C-H amination.

Project description:The cobalt(II) complex of 3,5-Di(t)Bu-IbuPhyrin, [Co(P1)], is an effective catalyst for intramolecular amination of electron-deficient C-H bonds, including those adjacent to electron-withdrawing CO(2)R, C(O)NR(2), C(O)R, and CN groups, in excellent yields with high regio- and stereoselectivity. The [Co(P1)]-catalyzed amination system provides a direct method for the synthesis of ?-amino acid derivatives from the corresponding carboxylate precursors.

Synthesis of Reversed C-Acyl Glycosides through Ni/Photoredox Dual Catalysis.

Project description:The incorporation of C-glycosides in drug design has become a routine practice for medicinal chemists. These naturally occurring building blocks exhibit attractive pharmaceutical profiles, and have become an important target of synthetic efforts in recent decades. Described herein is a practical, scalable, and versatile route for the synthesis of non-anomeric and unexploited C-acyl glycosides through a Ni/photoredox dual catalytic system. By utilizing an organic photocatalyst, a range of glycosyl-based radicals are generated and efficiently coupled with highly functionalized carboxylic acids at room temperature. Distinctive features of this transformation include its mild conditions, impressive compatibility with a wide array of functional groups, and most significantly, preservation of the anomeric carbon: a handle for further, late-stage derivatization.

Selective alkylation/oxidation of N-substituted isoindolinone derivatives: synthesis of N-phthaloylated natural and unnatural ?-amino acid analogues.

Project description:The interchangeability of the isoindolinone group as a nitrogen protecting group for amino acid intermediates is demonstrated by the preparation of several natural and unnatural ?-amino acid derivatives using a two-carbon N-isoindolinone (phthalimidine) scaffold. Using a selective benzylic oxidation, the N-isoindolinone group is then converted to the N-phthaloyl group for convenient removal (65-98%). For preparation of the isoindolinone products which were to be the substrates for benzylic oxidation, a range of side chains were installed on the isoindolinone-protected glycine equivalent on deprotonation to demonstrate the utility of the N-protected isoindolinone synthon (51-93%). While the ensuing benzylic oxidation is employed successfully for converting the N-isoindolinone group to the N-phthaloyl group in simple substrates, substrates bearing unsaturated or electron-rich side chains respond poorly to the oxidation.
