Cascade aza-Wittig/6π-Electrocyclization in the Synthesis of 1,6-Dihydropyridines.

ABSTRACT: A metal-free protocol for the synthesis of substituted 1,6-dihydropyridines with quaternary stereogenic centers via a cascade aza-Wittig/6π-electrocyclization process has been developed. The high functional group compatibility and broad scope of this method were demonstrated by using a wide range of easily available vinyliminophosphoranes and ketones, with yields up to 97%. A modification of the obtained products allowed for an increase in complexity and chemical diversity. Finally, attempts for asymmetric synthesis of 1,6-dihydropyridines are demonstrated.

Synthesis of Pyrroles via Consecutive 6π-Electrocyclization/Ring-Contraction of Sulfilimines.

Project description:We present a modular, synthetic entry to polysubstituted pyrroles employing readily available 2,5-dihydrothiophenes. Ring-opening of the heterocycle provides access to a panel of 1,3-dienes which undergo pyrrole formation in the presence of inexpensive chloramine-T trihydrate. The transformation is conducted in an open flask and proceeds at ambient temperatures (23 °C) in nondry solvents. A careful adjustment of the electronics and sterics of the 1,3-diene precursor allows for the isolation of key intermediates. DFT studies identified a reaction mechanism that features a 6π-electrocyclization of a sulfilimine intermediate followed by spontaneous ring-contraction to reveal the pyrrole skeleton.

Modular synthesis of chiral 1,2-dihydropyridines via Mannich/Wittig/cycloisomerization sequence that internally reuses waste.

Project description:1,2-Dihydropyridines are valuable and reactive synthons, and particularly useful precursors to synthesize piperidines and pyridines that are among the most common structural components of pharmaceuticals. However, the catalytic enantioselective synthesis of structurally diverse 1,2-dihydropyridines is limited to enantioselective addition of nucleophiles to activated pyridines. Here, we report a modular organocatalytic Mannich/Wittig/cycloisomerization sequence as a flexible strategy to access chiral 1,2-dihydropyridines from N-Boc aldimines, aldehydes, and phosphoranes, using a chiral amine catalyst. The key step in this protocol, cycloisomerization of chiral N-Boc δ-amino α,β-unsaturated ketones recycles the waste to improve the yield. Specifically, recycling by-product water from imine formation to gradually release the true catalyst HCl via hydrolysis of SiCl4, whilst maintaining a low concentration of HCl to suppress side reactions, and reusing waste Ph3PO from the Wittig step to modulate the acidity of HCl. This approach allows facile access to enantioenriched 2-substituted, 2,3- or 2,6-cis-disubstituted, and 2,3,6-cis-trisubstituted piperidines.

No acid required: 4π and 6π electrocyclization reactions of dienyl diketones for the synthesis of cyclopentenones and 2H-Pyrans.

Project description:The 1,6-conjugate addition of nucleophiles to dienyl diketones produces either cyclopentenone or 2H-pyran products with high selectivity through either Nazarov (4π) or 6π electrocyclization, respectively. The outcome of the reaction is dependent upon the nature of the nucleophile used. Nucleophiles that are anionic or easily deprotonated exclusively produce cyclopentenones via Nazarov cyclization, whereas the neutral nucleophile DABCO promotes 6π cyclization to afford 2H-pyrans. Experimental evidence is presented for both retro-4π and -6π electrocyclization in these systems, lending support to the bifurcated mechanistic hypothesis proposed for these cyclizations.

Catalytic Asymmetric Staudinger-aza-Wittig Reaction for the Synthesis of Heterocyclic Amines.

Project description:Many natural products and medicinal drugs are heterocyclic amines possessing a chiral quaternary carbon atom in their heterocyclic ring. Herein, we report the first catalytic and asymmetric Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction for the desymmetrization of ketones. This highly enantioselective transformation proceeds at room temperature to provide high yields-even on multigram scales-of nitrogen heterocycles featuring a chiral quaternary center. The products of this reaction are potential precursors for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. A commercially available small P-chiral phosphine catalyst, HypPhos, induces the asymmetry and is recycled through in situ reduction of its oxide, mediated by phenylsilane in the presence of a carboxylic acid. The efficiency, selectivity, scalability, mild reaction conditions, and broad substrate scope portend that this process will expedite the syntheses of chiral heterocyclic amines of significance to chemistry, biology, and medicine.

A Cobalt Mediated Nitrene Transfer <i>aza</i>-Wittig Cascade Reaction To Access 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Scaffolds.

Project description:A cobalt(II) mediated three-component synthesis of 5-substituted-N-sulfonyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-imines using sulfonyl azides, N-isocyaniminotriphenylphosphorane (NIITP), and carboxylic acids has been developed. This one-pot tandem reaction starts with a nitrene transfer to NIITP, followed by addition of the carboxylic acid to the in situ formed carbodiimide and subsequent intramolecular aza-Wittig reaction. Both the steric constraints of carboxylic acid and the stoichiometry of the employed cobalt salt determine the selectivity toward the two products, i.e. 5-substituted-N-sulfonyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-imine versus 5-substituted-4-tosyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one.

Synthesis of ent-ketorfanol via a C-H alkenylation/torquoselective 6? electrocyclization cascade.

Project description:The asymmetric synthesis of ent-ketorfanol from simple and commercially available precursors is reported. A Rh(I) -catalyzed intramolecular C?H alkenylation/torquoselective 6??electrocyclization cascade provides a fused bicyclic 1,2-dihydropyridine as a key intermediate. Computational studies were performed to understand the high torquoselectivity of the key 6??electrocyclization. The computational results demonstrate that a conformational effect is responsible for the observed selectivity. The ketone functionality and final ring are introduced in a single step by a redox-neutral acid-catalyzed rearrangement of a vicinal diol to give the requisite carbonyl, followed by intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation.

Synthesis of substituted 8H-benzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolin-8-ones via photochemical 6π-electrocyclization of pyrimidines containing an allomaltol fragment

Project description:For the first time, we elaborated a method for the synthesis of pyrimidines containing an allomaltol unit. The suggested approach is based on the reaction of 2-(1-(dimethylamino)-3-oxo-3-arylprop-1-en-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ones with cyanamide. The photochemical behavior of the obtained pyrimidines was investigated. It was shown that for the hydroxy derivatives the main pathway of phototransformation is a 6π-electrocyclization of the 1,3,5-hexatriene system and subsequent [1,9]-H sigmatropic shift leading to dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines. At the same time, for methylated analogues the photoreaction proceeds in two directions resulting in the formation of a mixture of the corresponding dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines and polyaromatic products. The obtained dihydro derivatives are stable compounds and do not undergo aromatization upon further UV irradiation. The structures of two of the dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Based on the performed studies, a two-stage telescopic method for the synthesis of polyaromatic benzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines including the initial photocyclization of the starting pyrimidines and the final dehydration was proposed.

Simultaneous synthesis of both rings of chromenes via a benzannulation/o-quinone methide formation/electrocyclization cascade.

Project description:A new route to the chromene ring system has been developed which involves the reaction of an α,β-unsaturated Fischer carbene complex of chromium with a propargyl ether bearing an alkenyl group on the propargylic carbon. This transformation involves a cascade of reactions that begins with a benzannulation reaction and is followed by the formation of an o-quinone methide, and finally results in the emergence of a chromene upon an electrocyclization. This reaction was extended to provide access by employing an aryl carbene complex. This constitutes the first synthesis of chromenes in which both rings of the chromene system are generated in a single step and is highlighted in the synthesis of lapachenole and vitamin E.

Terminal substituent effects on the reactivity, thermodynamics, and stereoselectivity of the 8π-6π electrocyclization cascades of 1,3,5,7-tetraenes.

Project description:M06-2X/6-31+G(d,p) computations are reported for the 8π-6π electrocyclization cascades of 1,3,5,7-tetraenes. The rate-determining step for these cascades is typically the second (6π) ring closure. According to experiment and theory, un- and monosubstituted tetraenes readily undergo 8π electrocyclic ring closure to form 1,3,5-cyclooctatrienes; however, the 6π electrocyclizations of these cyclooctatriene intermediates are slow and reversible, and mixtures of monocyclic and bicyclic products are formed. Computations indicate that di- and trisubstituted tetraenes undergo facile but less exergonic 8π electrocyclization due to a steric clash that destabilizes the 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene intermediates. Relief of this steric clash ensures the subsequent 6π ring closures of these intermediates are both kinetically facile and thermodynamically favorable, and only the bicyclic products are observed for the cascade reactions of naturally occurring tri- and tetrasubstituted tetraenes (in agreement with computations). The 6π electrocyclization step of these cascade electrocyclizations is also potentially diastereoselective, and di- and trisubstituted tetraenes often undergo cascade reactions with high diastereoselectivities. The exo mode of ring closure is favored for these 6π electrocyclizations due to a steric interaction that destabilizes the endo transition state. Thus, theory explains both the recalcitrance of the unsubstituted 1,3,5,7-octatetraene and 1-substituted tetraenes toward formation of the bicyclo[4.2.0]octa-2,4-diene products, as well as the ease and the stereoselectivity with which terminal di- and trisubstituted tetraenes are known to react biosynthetically.

One-pot sequential synthesis of isocyanates and urea derivatives via a microwave-assisted Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction.

Project description:A fast and efficient protocol for the synthesis of N,N'-disubstituted urea derivatives from alkyl halides and primary or secondary amines has been developed. The synthetic pathway combines nucleophilic substitutions and a Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction in the presence of polymer-bound diphenylphosphine under 14 bar of CO2 pressure and has been performed in a one-pot two-step process. The protocol has been optimized under microwave irradiation and the scale-up experiment has been conducted under conventional conditions in a Parr reactor. The final compounds were isolated after simple filtration in almost quantitative overall yields which makes this procedure facile and rapid to execute.
