Stereoselective Installation of Five Contiguous Stereogenic Centers in a Double Aldol-Tishchenko Cascade and Evaluation of the Key Transition State through DFT Calculation.

ABSTRACT: The stereoselective formation of 5 contiguous chiral centers in a single pot reaction is demonstrated using an aldol, aldol-Tishchenko reaction of N-tert-butyl sulfinimines. One diastereoisomer (from 32 possibilities) predominates, and a series of cyclic and acyclic 3-amino-1,5-diol derivatives are synthesized in good yields (up to 80%) and excellent diastereoselectivities (up to >98:2 dr). Investigations support two reversible aldol steps, and multiple intermediates which are funnelled through a remarkably selective, irreversible, Tishchenko reduction, in a Curtin-Hammett phenomenon. DFT calculations using a disolvated (THF) model reveal the factors controlling stereoselectivity in the final irreversible Tishchenko step.

Iminyl radical-triggered relay annulation for the construction of bridged aza-tetracycles bearing four contiguous stereogenic centers.

Project description:Bridged tetracyclic nitrogen scaffolds are found in numerous biologically active molecules and medicinally relevant structures. Traditional methods usually require tedious reaction steps, and/or the use of structurally specific starting materials. We report an unprecedented, iminyl radical-triggered relay annulation from oxime-derived peresters and azadienes, which shows good substrate scope and functional group compatibility, and can deliver various bridged aza-tetracyclic compounds with complex molecular topology and four contiguous stereogenic centers (dr > 19 : 1) in a single operation. This transformation represents the first example of trifunctionalization of iminyl radicals through simultaneous formation of one C-N and two C-C bonds. DFT calculation studies were conducted to obtain an in-depth insight into the reaction pathways, which revealed that the reactions involved an interesting 1,6-hydrogen atom transfer process.

Anion-? catalysis: bicyclic products with four contiguous stereogenic centers from otherwise elusive diastereospecific domino reactions on ?-acidic surfaces.

Project description:Anion-? interactions have been introduced recently to catalysis. The idea of stabilizing anionic intermediates and transition states on ?-acidic surfaces is a new fundamental concept. By now, examples exist for asymmetric enolate, enamine, iminium and transamination chemistry, and the first anion-? enzyme has been created. Delocalized over large aromatic planes, anion-? interactions appear particularly attractive to stabilize extensive long-distance charge displacements during domino processes. Moving on from the formation of cyclohexane rings with five stereogenic centers in one step on a ?-acidic surface, we here focus on asymmetric anion-? catalysis of domino reactions that afford bicyclic products with quaternary stereogenic centers. Catalyst screening includes a newly synthesized, better performing anion-? version of classical organocatalysts from cinchona alkaloids, and anion-? enzymes. We find stereoselectivities that are clearly better than the best ones reported with conventional catalysts, culminating in unprecedented diastereospecificity. Moreover, we describe achiral salts as supramolecular chirality enhancers and report the first artificial enzyme that operates in neutral water with anion-? interactions, i.e., interactions that are essentially new to enzymes. Evidence in support of contributions of anion-? interactions to asymmetric catalysis include increasing diastereo- and enantioselectivity with increasing rates, i.e., asymmetric transition-state stabilization in the presence of ?-acidic surfaces and inhibition with the anion selectivity sequence NO3- > Br- > BF4- > PF6-.

Efficient and stereodivergent synthesis of unsaturated acyclic fragments bearing contiguous stereogenic elements.

Project description:Synthetic organic strategies that enable the catalytic and rapid assembly of a large array of organic compounds that possess multiple stereocentres in acyclic systems are somewhat rare, especially when it comes to reaching today's high standards of efficiency and selectivity. In particular, the catalytic preparation of a three-dimensional molecular layout of a simple acyclic hydrocarbon skeleton that possesses several stereocentres from simple and readily available reagents still represents a vastly uncharted domain. Here we report a rapid, modular, stereodivergent and diversity-oriented unified strategy to construct acyclic molecular frameworks that bear up to four contiguous and congested stereogenic elements, with remarkably high levels of stereocontrol and in only three catalytic steps from commercially available alkynes. A regio- and diastereoselective catalytic Heck migratory insertion reaction of alkenylcyclopropyl carbinols that merges selective C-C bond cleavage of a cyclopropane represents the key step.

Synthesis of Natural (-)-Antrocin and its Enantiomer via Stereoselective Aldol Reaction.

Project description:The total synthesis of (-)-antrocin and its enantiomer are presented. Antrocin (-)-1 is an important natural product which acts as an antiproliferative agent in a metastatic breast cancer cell line (IC50: 0.6 ?M). The key features of this synthesis are: (a) selective anti-addition of trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) to ?,?-unsaturated ketone; (b) resolution of (±)-7 using chiral auxiliary L-dimethyl tartrate through formation of cyclic ketal diastereomers followed by simple column chromatography separation and acid hydrolysis; (c) substrate-controlled stereoselective aldol condensation of (+)-12 with monomeric formaldehyde and pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) oxidation for synthesis of essential lactone core in (-)-14; and (d) non-basic Lombardo olefination of the carbonyl at the final step to yield (-)-antrocin. In addition, (+)-9 cyclic ketal diastereomer was converted to (+)-antrocin with similar reaction sequences.

Diastereoselectivity in Lewis-acid-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions: a DFT study.

Project description:The basis for diastereoselectivity in Lewis-acid-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions was studied using density functional theory. By exploring the conformations of the transition structures for the diastereodifferentiating step of seven different reactions, simple models were generated. The effects of varying the substituents on the enol carbon and the ?-carbon of the silyl enol ether from methyl to tert-butyl groups and the substituent on the aldehyde from methyl to phenyl groups were investigated by comparison of the transition structures for different reactions. Expanding on the previous qualitative models by Heathcock and Denmark, we found that while the pro-anti pathways take place via antiperiplanar transition structures, the pro-syn pathways prefer synclinal transition structures. The relative steric effects of the Lewis acid and trimethyl silyl groups and the influence of E/Z isomerism on the aldol transition state were investigated. By calculating 36 transition structures at the M06/6-311G*//B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory and employing the IEFPCM polarizable continuum model for solvation effects, this study expands the mechanistic knowledge and provides a model for understanding the diastereoselectivity in Lewis-acid-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions.

Induced-fit recognition of DNA by organometallic complexes with dynamic stereogenic centers.

Project description:Organometallic chemistry offers novel concepts in structural diversity and molecular recognition that can be used in drug design. Here, we consider DNA recognition by eta 6-arene Ru(II) anticancer complexes by an induced-fit mechanism. The stereochemistry of the dinuclear complex [((eta 6-biphenyl)RuCl(en))2-(CH2)6]2 + (3, en = ethylenediamine) was elucidated by studies of the half unit [(eta 6-biphenyl)RuCl(Et-en)]+ (2, where Et-en is Et(H)NCH2CH2NH2). The structures of the separated RRu*RN* and SRu*RN* diastereomers of 2 were determined by x-ray crystallography; their slow interconversion in water (t(1/2) approximately 2 h, 298 K, pH 6.2) was observed by NMR spectroscopy. For 2 and 3 the RRu*RN* configurations are more stable than SRu*RN* (73:27). X-ray and NMR studies showed that reactions of 2 and 3 with 9-ethylguanine gave rise selectively to SRu*RN* diastereomers. Dynamic chiral recognition of guanine can lead to high diastereoselectivity of DNA binding. The dinuclear complex 3 induced a large unwinding (31 degrees) of plasmid DNA, twice that of mononuclear 2 (14 degrees), and effectively inhibited DNA-directed RNA synthesis in vitro. This dinuclear complex gave rise to interstrand cross-links on a 213-bp plasmid fragment with efficiency similar to bifunctional cisplatin, and to 1,3-GG interstrand and 1,2-GG and 1,3-GTG intrastrand cross-links on site-specifically ruthenated 20-mers. Complex 3 blocked intercalation of ethidium considerably more than mononuclear 2. The concept of induced-fit recognition of DNA by organometallic complexes containing dynamic stereogenic centers via dynamic epimerization, intercalation, and cross-linking may be useful in the design of anticancer drugs.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Stereogenic Phosphorus P(V) Centers Using Chiral Nucleophilic Catalysis.

Project description:Organophosphates have been widely used in agrochemistry, as reagents for organic synthesis, and in biochemistry. Phosphate mimics possessing four unique substituents, and thereby a chirality center, are useful in transition metal catalysis and as nucleotide therapeutics. The catalytic, stereocontrolled synthesis of phosphorus-stereogenic centers is challenging and traditionally depends on a resolution or use of stochiometric auxiliaries. Herein, enantioenriched phosphorus centers have been synthesized using chiral nucleophilic catalysis. Racemic H-phosphinate species were coupled with nucleophilic alcohols under halogenating conditions. Chiral phosphonate products were synthesized in acceptable yields (33-95%) and modest enantioselectivity (up to 62% ee) was observed after identification of an appropriate chiral catalyst and optimization of the solvent, base, and temperature. Nucleophilic catalysis has a tremendous potential to produce enantioenriched phosphate mimics that could be used as prodrugs or chemical biology probes.
