Enantioselective Organocatalytic Synthesis of Bicyclic Resorcinols via an Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts-Type 1,4-Addition: Access to Cannabidiol Analogues.

ABSTRACT: The organocatalytic transformation of resorcinols is extremely rare. In this article, we report a highly enantioselective, organocatalytic intramolecular cyclization of these systems by a Friedel-Crafts-type 1,4-addition using a Jørgensen-Hayashi-like organocatalyst with a large silyl protecting group, and show that heat improves reaction yield with virtually no detriment to enantioselectivity. A variety of bicyclic resorcinols were obtained with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 94%). To show the utility of these constructs, and as part of a wider project involving the synthesis of cannabinoid-like compounds, the resorcinol formed was used to generate both 'normal' and 'abnormal' cannabidiol (CBD) derivatives which were shown to have anticonvulsant activity.

Enantioselective synthesis of tryptophan derivatives by a tandem Friedel-Crafts conjugate addition/asymmetric protonation reaction.

Project description:The tandem Friedel-Crafts conjugate addition/asymmetric protonation reaction between 2-substituted indoles and methyl 2-acetamidoacrylate is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by (R)-3,3'-dibromo-BINOL in the presence of stoichiometric SnCl(4), and is the first example of a tandem conjugate addition/asymmetric protonation reaction using a BINOL·SnCl(4) complex as the catalyst. A range of indoles furnished synthetic tryptophan derivatives in good yields and high levels of enantioselectivity, even on a preparative scale. The convergent nature of this transformation should lend itself to the preparation of unnatural tryptophan derivatives for use in a broad array of synthetic and biological applications.

Tandem Friedel-Crafts annulation to novel perylene analogues.

Project description:Novel dialkyloxy- and dihydroxyoctahydroperylenes are regioselectively available via a new tandem Friedel-Crafts alkylation of tetrahydronaphthalene precursors followed by oxidative aromatization. Heating of 5-alkyloxy-1-tetralol with p-toluenesulfonic acid in sulfolane gave the corresponding octahydroperylenes in moderate yields. Studies with Lewis acids and tetralin-1,5-diol in acetonitrile at room temperature provided the 4,10-dihydroxy analogue cleanly, albeit in reduced yields. Examples of these new series of perylene analogues were partially oxidized to the corresponding contiguously aromatic, anthracene core products or fully aromatized to 3,9-dialkyloxyperylenes in good yields.

Project description:Katsumadain A, a naturally occurring in?uenza virus neuraminidase (NA) inhibitor, was synthesized by using a bioinspired, organocatalytic enantioselective 1,4-conjugate addition of styryl-2-pyranone with cinnamaldehyde, followed by a tandem Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons/oxa Michael addition.

Synthesis of Benzyl Amines via Copper-Catalyzed Enantioselective Aza-Friedel-Crafts Addition of Phenols to N-Sulfonyl Aldimines.

Project description:A new copper-catalyzed enantioselective aza-Freidel-Crafts reaction between phenols and N-sulfonyl aldimines that provides chiral secondary benzylamines in good to excellent yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) is disclosed. In particular, excellent scope with alkylimines was observed for the first time. The synthetic utility of the products was demonstrated in the first enantioselective synthesis of a dual orexin receptor antagonist, a compound that contains an amine-bearing stereocenter adjacent to a bis- ortho-functionalized arene.

Project description:Highly enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of pyrroles with 2-enoyl-pyridine N-oxides in water/chloroform (10:1) was developed under catalysis of Lewis acid. The Friedel-Crafts alkylation products can be obtained in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. Moreover, several control experiments were carried out to study the reaction mechanism.

Tandem Friedel‐Crafts‐Alkylation‐Enantioselective‐Protonation by Artificial Enzyme Iminium Catalysis

Project description:Abstract The incorporation of organocatalysts into protein scaffolds holds the promise of overcoming some of the limitations of this powerful catalytic approach. Previously, we showed that incorporation of the non‐canonical amino acid para‐aminophenylalanine into the non‐enzymatic protein scaffold LmrR forms a proficient and enantioselective artificial enzyme (LmrR_pAF) for the Friedel‐Crafts alkylation of indoles with enals. The unnatural aniline side‐chain is directly involved in catalysis, operating via a well‐known organocatalytic iminium‐based mechanism. In this study, we show that LmrR_pAF can enantioselectively form tertiary carbon centres not only during C−C bond formation, but also by enantioselective protonation, delivering a proton to one face of a prochiral enamine intermediate. The importance of various side‐chains in the pocket of LmrR is distinct from the Friedel‐Crafts reaction without enantioselective protonation, and two particularly important residues were probed by exhaustive mutagenesis. BioTrans2021: We created an artificial enzyme consisting of a non‐enzymatic protein (LmrR) containing an unnatural catalytic residue with an aniline side chain (LmrR_pAF). Building on our previous work showing how LmrR_pAF can catalyse a Friedel‐Crafts alkylation of indoles, here we show that when α‐substituted acroleins are applied as substrates the protein scaffold enables enantioselective protonation with good selectivity.

Remarkably mild and efficient intramolecular Friedel-Crafts cyclization catalyzed by In(III).

Project description:[structure: see text]. Indium(III) salts were found to be highly effective catalysts for the intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction of simple allylic bromides and arenes. In(III) salts appear to be the most general and possess unique halophilic properties as a Lewis acid for this reaction among the catalysts evaluated to date. Deactivated arenes possessing chloride, bromide, and fluoride underwent smooth reaction when activated by InCl3.

Diastereoselective ring opening of fully-substituted cyclopropanes via intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation.

Project description:We herein disclose a diastereoselective ring opening of non-donor-acceptor cyclopropanes via an intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation en route to functionalized dihydronaphthalene scaffolds possessing quaternary carbon stereocentres. The transformation proceeds through a selective bond breaking at the most alkylated carbon centre with a pure retention of configuration. Mechanistic investigations and computational studies revealed that alkoxy functionality is the key for selective bond breaking leading to a complete retention of configuration.

Multivalent polyglycerol supported imidazolidin-4-one organocatalysts for enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylations.

Project description:The first immobilization of a MacMillan's first generation organocatalyst onto dendritic support is described. A modified tyrosine-based imidazolidin-4-one was grafted to a soluble high-loading hyperbranched polyglycerol via a copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction and readily purified by dialysis. The efficiency of differently functionalized multivalent organocatalysts 4a-c was tested in the asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation of N-methylpyrrole with ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes. A variety of substituted enals was investigated to explore the activity of the catalytic system which was also compared with monovalent analogues. The catalyst 4b showed excellent turnover rates and no loss of activity due to immobilization, albeit moderate enantioselectivities were observed. Moreover, easy recovery by selective precipitation allowed the reuse of the catalyst for three cycles.
