Synthetic- and DFT modelling studies on regioselective modified Mannich reactions of hydroxy-KYNA derivatives.

ABSTRACT: The syntheses of hydroxy-substituted kynurenic acid (KYNA) derivatives have been achieved by an optimised Conrad-Limpach procedure. The derivatives were then reacted with morpholine and paraformaldehyde, as a representative amine and aldehyde, in a modified Mannich reaction. The newly introduced substituents altered the preferred reaction centre of the KYNA skeleton. A systematic investigation of substitutions was carried out, using different reaction conditions, resulting in mono- or disubstituted derivatives. Product selectivity and regioselectivity were rationalised by DFT calculations disclosing HOMO distribution and NBO charges on the potential nucleophilic centres in the anion of the appropriate KYNA ester assumed to be active components towards the iminium ion intermediate.

Synthesis of Indole-Coupled KYNA Derivatives via C-N Bond Cleavage of Mannich Bases.

Project description:KYNAs, a compound with endogenous neuroprotective functions and an indole that is a building block of many biologically active compounds, such as a variety of neurotransmitters, are reacted in a transformation building upon Mannich bases. The reaction yields triarylmethane derivatives containing two biologically potent skeletons, and it may contribute to the synthesis of new, specialised neuroprotective compounds. The synthesis has been investigated via two procedures and the results were compared to those of previous studies. A possible alternative reaction route through acid catalysis has been established.

Organocatalytic Enantioselective γ-Position-Selective Mannich Reactions of β-Ketocarbonyl Derivatives.

Project description:Catalytic asymmetric Mannich reactions of β-ketocarbonyl derivatives (such as β-ketoesters and (2-oxopropyl)phosphonate), resulting in the formation of a C-C bond at the γ-position of the β-ketocarbonyl derivatives with high enantioselectivities, are reported. The bond formation at the α-position of the β-ketoester was reversible, and the γ-position-reacted product δ-amino β-ketoester derivative was kinetically formed and was stable. The dynamic kinetic process was key for the direct access to the γ-position-reacted products from β-ketocarbonyls under catalytic conditions.

Accurate reaction enthalpies and sources of error in DFT thermochemistry for aldol, Mannich, and alpha-aminoxylation reactions.

Project description:Enthalpies for bond-forming reactions that are subject to organocatalysis have been predicted using the high-accuracy CBS-QB3 model chemistry and six DFT functionals. Reaction enthalpies were decomposed into contributions from changes in bonding and other intramolecular effects via the hierarchy of homodesmotic reactions. The order of the reaction exothermicities (aldol < Mannich approximately alpha-aminoxylation) arises primarily from changes in formal bond types mediated by contributions from secondary intramolecular interactions. In each of these reaction types, methyl substitution at the beta- and gamma-positions stabilizes the products relative to the unsubstituted case. The performance of six DFT functionals (B3LYP, B3PW91, B1B95, MPW1PW91, PBE1PBE, and M06-2X), MP2, and SCS-MP2 has been assessed for the prediction of these reaction enthalpies. Even though the PBE1PBE and M06-2X functionals perform well for the aldol and Mannich reactions, errors roughly double when these functionals are applied to the alpha-aminoxylation reactions. B3PW91 and B1B95, which offer modest accuracy for the aldol and Mannich reactions, yield reliable predictions for the two alpha-aminoxylation reactions. The excellent performance of the M06-2X and PBE1PBE functionals for aldol and Mannich reactions stems from the cancellation of sizable errors arising from inadequate descriptions of the underlying bond transformations and intramolecular interactions. SCS-MP2/cc-pVTZ performs most consistently across these three classes of reactions, although the reaction exothermicities are systematically underestimated by 1-3 kcal mol(-1). Conventional MP2, when paired with the cc-pVTZ basis set, performs somewhat better than SCS-MP2 for some of these reactions, particularly the alpha-aminoxylations. Finally, the merits of benchmarking DFT functionals for the set of simple chemically meaningful transformations underlying all bond-forming reactions are discussed.

Reactions of Trimethylaluminium: Modelling the Chemical Degradation of Synthetic Lubricants.

Project description:In investigating and seeking to mimic the reactivity of trimethylaluminium (TMA) with synthetic, ester-based lubricating oils, the reaction of methyl propionate 1 was explored with 1, 2 and 3 equivalents of the organoaluminium reagent. Spectroscopic analysis points to the formation of the adduct 1(TMA) accompanied only by the low level 1:1 production of Me2 AlOCEtMe2 2 and Me2 AlOMe 3 when an equimolar amount of TMA is applied. The deployment of excess TMA favours reaction to give 2 and 3 over 1(TMA) adduct formation and spectroscopy reveals that in hydrocarbon solution substitution product 2 traps unreacted TMA to yield 2(TMA). The 1 H NMR spectroscopic observation of two Al-Me signals not attributable to free TMA and in the ratio 1:4 suggests the formation of a previously only postulated, symmetrical metallacycle in Me4 Al2 (μ2 -Me)(μ2 -OCEtMe2 ). In the presence of 3, 2(TMA) undergoes thermally induced exchange to yield Me4 Al2 (μ2 -OMe)(μ2 -OCEtMe2 ) 4 and TMA. The reaction of methyl phenylacetate 5 with TMA allows isolation of the crystalline product Me2 AlOCBnMe2 (TMA) 6(TMA), which allows the first observation of the Me4 Al2 (μ2 -Me)(μ2 -OR) motif in the solid state. Distances of 2.133(3) Å (Al-Mebridging ) and 1.951 Å (mean Al-Meterminal ) are recorded. The abstraction of TMA from 6(TMA) by the introduction of Et2 O has yielded 6, which exists as a dimer.

Regioselective Enzymatic β-Carboxylation of para-Hydroxy- styrene Derivatives Catalyzed by Phenolic Acid Decarboxylases.

Project description:We report on a 'green' method for the utilization of carbon dioxide as C1 unit for the regioselective synthesis of (E)-cinnamic acids via regioselective enzymatic carboxylation of para-hydroxystyrenes. Phenolic acid decarboxylases from bacterial sources catalyzed the β-carboxylation of para-hydroxystyrene derivatives with excellent regio- and (E/Z)-stereoselectivity by exclusively acting at the β-carbon atom of the C=C side chain to furnish the corresponding (E)-cinnamic acid derivatives in up to 40% conversion at the expense of bicarbonate as carbon dioxide source. Studies on the substrate scope of this strategy are presented and a catalytic mechanism is proposed based on molecular modelling studies supported by mutagenesis of amino acid residues in the active site.

Unimolecular Decomposition Reactions of Picric Acid and Its Methylated Derivatives─A DFT Study.

Project description:To handle energetic materials safely, it is important to have knowledge about their sensitivity. Density functional theory (DFT) has proven a valuable tool in the study of energetic materials, and in the current work, DFT is employed to study the thermal unimolecular decomposition of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (picric acid, PA), 3-methyl-2,4,6-trinitrophenol (methyl picric acid, mPA), and 3,5-dimethyl-2,4,6-trinitrophenol (dimethyl picric acid, dmPA). These compounds have similar molecular structures, but according to the literature, mPA is far less sensitive to impact than the other two compounds. Three pathways believed important for the initiation reactions are investigated at 0 and 298.15 K. We compare the computed energetics of the reaction pathways with the objective of rationalizing the unexpected sensitivity behavior. Our results reveal a few if any significant differences in the energetics of the three molecules, and thus do not reflect the sensitivity deviations observed in experiments. These findings point toward the potential importance of crystal structure, crystal morphology, bimolecular reactions, or combinations thereof on the impact sensitivity of nitroaromatics.

Pipecolic acid-catalyzed direct asymmetric mannich reactions.

Project description:Mannich reactions between aldehydes and N-p-methoxyphenyl-protected alpha-imino ethyl glyoxylate have been performed using (S)-pipecolic acid as catalyst. The reactions give both syn- and anti-products (dr=1.4-2:1) with high enantioselectivities (>98% ee). In contrast, (S)-proline-catalyzed reactions give mainly syn-products with high enantioselectivities. Computational studies reveal that the energetic preference between the transition structures involving the s-cis-enamine and the s-trans-enamine is smaller for the pipecolic acid as compared to proline, yielding the (2S,3R)-anti and the (2S,3S)-syn Mannich product in nearly equal amounts.

Synthetic, Mesomorphic, and DFT Investigations of New Nematogenic Polar Naphthyl Benzoate Ester Derivatives.

Project description:Four new non-symmetrical derivatives based on central naphthalene moiety, 4-((4-(alkoxy)phenyl) diazenyl)naphthalen-1-yl 4-substitutedbenzoate (In/x), were prepared, and their properties were investigated experimentally and theoretically. The synthesized materials bear two wing groups: an alkoxy chain of differing proportionate length (n = 6 and 16 carbons) and one terminal attached to a polar group, X. Their molecular structures were elucidated via elemental analyses and FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM) were carried out to evaluate their mesomorphic properties. The results of the experimental investigations revealed that all the synthesized analogues possess only an enantiotropic nematic (N) mesophase with a high thermal stability and broad range. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were in accordance with the experimental investigations and revealed that all prepared materials are to be linear and planar. Moreover, the rigidity of the molecule increased when an extra fused ring was inserted into the center of the structural shape, so its thermal and geometrical parameters were affected. Energy gap predictions confirmed that the I16/c derivative is more reactive than other compounds.

Triborane (B3H7)-mediated regioselective substitution reactions of pyridine derivatives.

Project description:There exists an interplay between borane and a Lewis base in their adducts. However, studies on these adducts so far have mainly focused on the different reactions of B-H bonds with limited attention given to the influence of borane on the chemistry of the Lewis base, except for BF3 and BAr3. Herein, we have synthesized novel borane adducts with pyridine derivatives, Py·B3H7, in which the coordination of B3H7 efficiently achieved the intra-molecular charge transfer. The strong B-N bond in these adducts resulted in the formation of stable dearomatic intermediates of pyridine derivatives, confirmed by 1H and 11B NMR spectroscopy, from which different reactions have transpired to realize C(sp3)-H and C(sp2)-H functionalization under mild conditions. The B3H7 pyridine derivatives are stable and do not dissociate or decompose during the reaction process. The high stability of the B-N bond makes this method a good option for boron-containing drugs with potential for use in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT).

One-pot synthesis of novel chiral β-amino acid derivatives by enantioselective Mannich reactions catalyzed by squaramide cinchona alkaloids.

Project description:An efﬁcient one-pot synthesis of novel β-amino acid derivatives containing a thiadiazole moiety was developed using a chiral squaramide cinchona alkaloid as organocatalyst. The reactions afforded chiral β-amino acid derivatives in moderate yields and with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities. The present study demonstrated for the first time the use of a Mannich reaction catalyzed by a chiral bifunctional organocatalyst for the one-pot synthesis of novel β-amino acid derivatives bearing a 1,3,4-thiadiazole moiety on nitrogen.
