Anionic Diels-Alder Chemistry of Cyclic Sodium Dien-1-olates Delivering Highly Stereoselective and Functionalized Polycyclic Adducts.

ABSTRACT: Anionic Diels-Alder chemistry of electron-deficient cross-conjugated vinylogous alkenones, providing highly stable sodium dienolate ion pairs as electron-rich dienes in the presence of a weak sodium base in THF, has been newly developed, leading to a single Diels-Alder adduct, in racemic form, in moderate to high yields (up to 97%, 37 examples).

A versatile Diels-Alder approach to functionalized hydroanthraquinones.

Project description:The synthesis of highly substituted hydroanthraquinone derivatives with up to three stereogenic centres via a Diels-Alder reaction, starting from easily accessible 2-substituted naphthoquinones, is described. The [4+2]-cycloaddition is applicable for a broad range of substrates, runs under mild conditions and results in high yields. The highly regioselective outcome of the reactions is enabled by a benzoyl substituent at C2 of the dienophiles. The obtained hydroanthraquinones can be further modified and represent ideal substrates for follow-up intramolecular coupling reactions to create unique bicyclo[3.3.1] or -[3.2.2]nonane ring systems which are important natural product skeletons.

Recyclable and Mendable Cellulose-Reinforced Composites Crosslinked with Diels⁻Alder Adducts.

Project description:Owing to their natural abundance and exceptional mechanical properties, cellulose fibers (CFs) have been used for reinforcing polymers. Despite these merits, dispersing hydrophilic CFs in a hydrophobic polymer matrix is challenging. To address this, an amphiphilic ammonium salt was employed as the dispersant for CFs in this study. The hydrophobic CFs were mixed with a healable polymer to produce CF-reinforced composites. As the thermosetting polymer was crosslinked with Diels⁻Alder (DA) adducts, it was mended and recycled via a retro DA reaction at 120 °C. Interestingly, the CF-reinforced polymer composites were mended and recycled as well. When 5 wt % of the hydrophobic CFs was added to the polymer, maximum tensile strength, elongation at break, Young's modulus, and toughness increased by 70%, 183%, 75%, and 420%, respectively. After recycling, the CF-reinforced composites still featured better mechanical properties than recycled polymer.

A straightforward route to functionalized trans-Diels-Alder motifs.

Project description:A sequence consisting of a Lewis acid-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction on a 2-halocyclohexenone, followed by reductive alkylation, provides a route to trans-fused octalinones bearing angular methyl groups with functionality corresponding to that which would have been possible from a trans-directed Diels-Alder reaction.

Electrically-Responsive Reversible Polyketone/MWCNT Network through Diels-Alder Chemistry.

Project description:This study examines the preparation of electrically conductive polymer networks based on furan-functionalised polyketone (PK-Fu) doped with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and reversibly crosslinked with bis-maleimide (B-Ma) via Diels-Alder (DA) cycloaddition. Notably, the incorporation of 5 wt.% of MWCNTs results in an increased modulus of the material, and makes it thermally and electrically conductive. Analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicates that MWCNTs, due to their diene/dienophile character, covalently interact with the matrix via DA reaction, leading to effective interfacial adhesion between the components. Raman spectroscopy points to a more effective graphitic ordering of MWCNTs after reaction with PK-Fu and B-Ma. After crosslinking the obtained composite via the DA reaction, the softening point (tan(δ) in dynamic mechanical analysis measurements) increases up to 155 °C, as compared to the value of 130 °C for the PK-Fu crosslinked with B-Ma and that of 140 °C for the PK-Fu/B-Ma/MWCNT nanocomposite before resistive heating (responsible for crosslinking). After grinding the composite, compression moulding (150 °C/40 bar) activates the retro-DA process that disrupts the network, allowing it to be reshaped as a thermoplastic. A subsequent process of annealing via resistive heating demonstrates the possibility of reconnecting the decoupled DA linkages, thus providing the PK networks with the same thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties as the crosslinked pristine systems.

Probing substituent effects in aryl-aryl interactions using stereoselective Diels-Alder cycloadditions.

Project description:Stereoselective Diels-Alder cycloadditions that probe substituent effects in aryl-aryl sandwich complexes were studied experimentally and theoretically. Computations on model systems demonstrate that the stereoselectivity in these reactions is mediated by differential pi-stacking interactions in competing transition states. This allows relative stacking free energies of substituted and unsubstituted sandwich complexes to be derived from measured product distributions. In contrast to gas-phase computations, dispersion effects do not appear to play a significant role in the substituent effects, in accord with previous experiments. The experimental pi-stacking free energies are shown to correlate well with Hammett sigma(m) constants (r = 0.96). These substituent constants primarily provide a measure of the inductive electron-donating and -withdrawing character of the substituents, not donation into or out of the benzene pi-system. The present experimental results are most readily explained using a recently proposed model of substituent effects in the benzene sandwich dimer in which the pi-system of the substituted benzene is relatively unimportant and substituent effects arise from direct through-space interactions. Specifically, these results are the first experiments to clearly show that OMe enhances these pi-stacking interactions, despite being a pi-electron donor. This is in conflict with popular models in which substituent effects in aryl-aryl interactions are modulated by polarization of the aryl pi-system.

Chromium photocatalysis: accessing structural complements to Diels-Alder adducts with electron-deficient dienophiles.

Project description:A chromium-catalyzed, visible light-activated net [4 + 2] cycloaddition between dienes and electron-deficient alkenes is described. Gathered evidence, via control experiments, isolated intermediates, and measured redox potentials, points to several converging reaction pathways that afford the cyclohexene adducts, including a photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition/vinylcyclobutane rearrangement cascade and a substrate excitation/oxidation sequence to a radical cation intermediate. Notably, the accompanying mechanistic stipulations result in a process that yields regioisomeric compounds from those generated by traditional Diels-Alder cycloadditions.

Protein Spin Labeling with a Photocaged Nitroxide Using Diels-Alder Chemistry.

Project description:EPR spectroscopy of diamagnetic bio-macromolecules is based on site-directed spin labeling (SDSL). Herein, a novel labeling strategy for proteins is presented. A nitroxide-based spin label has been developed and synthesized that can be ligated to proteins by an inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder (DAinv ) cycloaddition to genetically encoded noncanonical amino acids. The nitroxide moiety is shielded by a photoremovable protecting group with an attached tetra(ethylene glycol) unit to achieve water solubility. SDSL is demonstrated on two model proteins with the photoactivatable nitroxide for DAinv reaction (PaNDA) label. The strategy features high reaction rates, combined with high selectivity, and the possibility to deprotect the nitroxide in Escherichia coli lysate.

Computational design of an enzyme catalyst for a stereoselective bimolecular Diels-Alder reaction.

Project description:The Diels-Alder reaction is a cornerstone in organic synthesis, forming two carbon-carbon bonds and up to four new stereogenic centers in one step. No naturally occurring enzymes have been shown to catalyze bimolecular Diels-Alder reactions. We describe the de novo computational design and experimental characterization of enzymes catalyzing a bimolecular Diels-Alder reaction with high stereoselectivity and substrate specificity. X-ray crystallography confirms that the structure matches the design for the most active of the enzymes, and binding site substitutions reprogram the substrate specificity. Designed stereoselective catalysts for carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions should be broadly useful in synthetic chemistry.

The endo isomer undergoes deprotection at temperatures ?50 °C below the exo derivative. This enables a simple and powerful approach to quantitatively and selectively introduce functional maleimide groups via temperature modulation.
