Cu(i) catalysis for selective condensation/bicycloaromatization of two different arylalkynes: direct and general construction of functionalized C-N axial biaryl compounds.

ABSTRACT: Selective condensation/bicycloaromatization of two different arylalkynes is firstly developed under ligand-free copper(i)-catalysis, which allows the direct synthesis of C-N axial biaryl compounds in high yields with excellent selectivity and functional group tolerance. Due to the critical effects of Cu(i) catalyst and HFIP, many easily occurring undesired reactions are suppressed, and the coupled five-six aromatic rings are constructed via the selective formation of two C(sp²)-N(sp²) bonds and four C(sp²)-C(sp²) bonds. The achievement of moderate enantioselectivity verifies its potential for the simplest asymmetric synthesis of atropoisomeric biaryls. Western blotting demonstrated that the newly developed compounds are promising targets in biology and pharmaceuticals. This unique reaction can construct structurally diverse C-N axial biaryl compounds that have never been reported by other methods, and might be extended to various applications in materials, chemistry, biology, and pharmaceuticals.

Functionalized spirolactones by photoinduced dearomatization of biaryl compounds.

Project description:The idea of using biaryl structures to generate synthetic building blocks such as spirolactones is attractive because biaryl structures are abundant in biomass waste streams. However, the inertness of aromatic rings of biaryls makes it challenging to transform them into functionalized structures. In this work, we developed photoinduced dearomatization of nonphenolic biaryl compounds to generate spirolactones. We demonstrate that dearomatization can be performed via either aerobic photocatalysis or anaerobic photooxidation to tolerate specific synthetic conditions. In both pathways, dearomatization is induced by electrophilic attack of the carboxyl radical. The resulting spirodiene radical is captured by either oxygen or water in aerobic and anaerobic systems, respectively, to generate the spirodienone. These methods represent novel routes to synthesize spirolactones from the biaryl motif.

Amine-Functionalized Nanoporous Silica Monoliths for Heterogeneous Catalysis of the Knoevenagel Condensation in Flow.

Project description:Porous carrier materials functionalized with organocatalysts offer substantial advantages compared to homogeneous catalysts, e.g., easy separation of the catalyst, scalability, and an improved implementation in continuous operations. Here, we report the immobilization of (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (APTMS) onto self-prepared silica monoliths and its application as a heterogeneous catalyst in the Knoevenagel condensation between cyano ethylacetate and various aromatic aldehydes under continuous-flow conditions. The meso-macroporous silica monoliths (6-7 cm in length) were optimized to be used in flow taking advantage of their hierarchical meso- and macroporosity. The monoliths were cladded with a poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) tube by a refined procedure to guarantee tight connection between the carrier material and PEEK. Functionalization of the bare silica monoliths consisting of APTMS can be efficiently performed in flow in ethanol and toluene. While a large grafting gradient is obtained for toluene, the grafting in ethanol proceeds homogenously throughout the monolith, as evidenced by elemental analysis and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). The silica monoliths exhibit high conversion up to 95% with concurrent low back pressures, which is of importance in flow catalysis. By connecting two monoliths, high conversions can be maintained for several flow rates. Two types of monoliths were synthesized, possessing different mesopore sizes. The monolith bearing the larger mesopore size showed an enhanced turnover frequency (TOF), while the monolith with the smaller mesopores allowed for larger quantities of the product to be synthesized, due to the higher surface area. A long-term stability test showed that the functionalized monoliths were still active after 66 h of continuous usage, while the overall yield decreased over time.

Construction of highly functionalized carbazoles via condensation of an enolate to a nitro group.

Project description:This paper describes a novel synthesis of highly functionalized and diverse carbazoles via transition-metal-free and mild base-promoted condensations of readily available 2-nitrocinnamaldehyde or 2-nitrochalcones with various ?-ketoesters or 1,3-diaryl-2-propanones. The method selectively forms four bonds by the intramolecular conjugate addition of an enolate to the enal or chalcone bearing an o-nitro group. This group then undergoes in situ N-O bond cleavage under non-reductive conditions in a one-pot procedure. This protocol allows for the introduction of various functional groups at all positions of the newly formed aromatic ring of the carbazole moiety. The utility of this methodology is further illustrated by the concise synthesis of naturally occurring hyellazole and chlorohyellazole.

General route for preparing ?-nitrocarbonyl compounds using copper thermal redox catalysis.

Project description:Using a simple copper catalyst, the alkylation of nitroalkanes with ?-bromocarbonyls is now possible. This method provides a general, functional group tolerant route to ?-nitrocarbonyl compounds, including nitro amides, esters, ketones, and aldehydes. The highly sterically dense, functional group rich products from these reactions can be readily elaborated into a range of complex nitrogen-containing molecules, including highly substituted ?-amino acids.

Asymmetric synthesis of biaryl atropisomers by dynamic resolution on condensation of biaryl aldehydes with (-)-ephedrine or a proline-derived diamine.

Project description:Atropisomeric biaryl aldehydes undergo diastereoselective condensation with (-)-ephedrine and with a proline-derived diamine, with selectivity highly dependent on solvent, temperature and reaction conditions. Levels of thermodynamic control up to 5:1 may be obtained by heating the diamine with the aldehyde in a sealed tube. Alternatively, crystallisation-induced dynamic transformation allows isolation of a single diastereoisomer in up to 85% yield. Hydrolysis and reduction of the major diastereoisomeric product of the reaction yields atropisomeric biaryls in >99:1 enantiomeric ratios.

Unusual biaryl torsional strain promotes reactivity in Cu-catalyzed Sommelet-Hauser rearrangement.

Project description:A Cu-catalyzed Sommelet-Hauser dearomatization of dihydrophenanthridine and diazo compounds is reported for the synthesis of spiro-indolines. A spiro-structure with adjacent quaternary and tertiary carbon centers was constructed in one step as a single isomer. Increasing steric hindrance by introducing ortho-substituents dramatically improved substrate reactivity in this transformation.

SYNTHESIS AND BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF BIARYL ANALOGS OF ANTITUBULIN COMPOUNDS.

Project description:This paper reports the synthesis of methanones and esters bearing different substitution patterns as spacer groups between aromatic rings. This series of compounds can be considered phenstatin analogs. Two of the newly synthesized compounds, 5a and 5c, strongly inhibited tubulin polymerization and the binding of [(3)H] colchicine to tubulin, suggesting that, akin to phenstatin and combretastatin A-4, they can bind to tubulin at the colchicine site.

Cu(II) and magnetite nanoparticles decorated melamine-functionalized chitosan: A synergistic multifunctional catalyst for sustainable cascade oxidation of benzyl alcohols/Knoevenagel condensation.

Project description:The uniform decoration of Cu(II) species and magnetic nanoparticles on the melamine-functionalized chitosan afforded a new supramolecular biopolymeric nanocomposite (Cs-Pr-Me-Cu(II)-Fe3O4). The morphology, structure, and catalytic activity of the Cs-Pr-Me-Cu(II)-Fe3O4 nanocomposite have been systematically investigated. It was found that Cs-Pr-Me-Cu(II)-Fe3O4 nanocomposite can smoothly promote environmentally benign oxidation of different benzyl alcohol derivatives by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) to their corresponding benzaldehydes and subsequent Knoevenagel condensation with malononitrile, as a multifunctional catalyst. Interestingly, Fe3O4 nanoparticles enhance the catalytic activity of Cu(II) species. The corresponding benzylidenemalononitriles were formed in high to excellent yields at ambient pressure and temperature. The heterogeneous Cs-Pr-Me-Cu(II)-Fe3O4 catalyst was also very stable with almost no leaching of the Cu(II) species into the reaction medium and could be easily recovered by an external magnet. The recycled Cs-Pr-Me-Cu(II)-Fe3O4 was reused at least four times with slight loss of its activity. This is a successful example of the combination of chemo- and bio-drived materials catalysis for mimicing biocatalysis as well as sustainable and one pot multistep synthesis.

Bacterial flagellar axial structure and its construction.

Project description:The bacterial flagellum is a motile organelle composed of thousands of protein subunits. The filamentous part that extends from the cell membrane is called the axial structure and consists of three major parts, the filament, hook, and rod, and other minor components. Each of the three main parts shares a similar self-assembly mechanism and a common basic architecture of subunit arrangement while showing quite distinct mechanical properties to achieve its specific function. Structural and molecular mechanisms to produce these various mechanical properties of the axial structure, such as the filament, the hook, and the rod, have been revealed by the complementary use of X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy. In addition, the mechanism of growth of the axial structure is beginning to be revealed based on the molecular structure.
