Novel amide-functionalized chloramphenicol base bifunctional organocatalysts for enantioselective alcoholysis of meso-cyclic anhydrides.

ABSTRACT: A family of novel chloramphenicol base-amide organocatalysts possessing a NH functionality at C-1 position as monodentate hydrogen bond donor were developed and evaluated for enantioselective organocatalytic alcoholysis of meso-cyclic anhydrides. These structural diversified organocatalysts were found to induce high enantioselectivity in alcoholysis of anhydrides and was successfully applied to the asymmetric synthesis of (S)-GABOB.

Dual Nickel- and Photoredox-Catalyzed Enantioselective Desymmetrization of Cyclic meso-Anhydrides.

Project description:The enantioselective desymmetrization of cyclic meso-anhydrides with benzyl trifluoroborates under nickel-photoredox catalysis is described. The reaction tolerates a variety of sterically and electronically different trifluoroborates, as well as structurally unique cyclic anhydrides. The trans isomer of the keto-acid products is also observed at varying levels dependent on the trifluoroborate identity and relative catalyst loading. A mechanism involving decarbonylation and Ni-C bond homolysis of a NiII adduct is proposed. This feature allows access to a trans keto-acid as the major product in high enantioselectivity from a cis meso anhydride.

A Theoretical Study of the Mechanism of the Desymmetrization of Cyclic meso-Anhydrides by Chiral Amino Alcohols.

Project description:The alcoholysis of cyclic meso-anhydrides catalyzed by ?-amino alcohols has been investigated with DFT quantum mechanics to determine the mechanism of this reaction. Both nucleophilic catalysis and general base catalysis pathways are explored for methanol-induced ring opening of an anhydride catalyzed by a chiral amino alcohol. The nucleophilic pathway involves a late transition state with a high energy barrier. In this mechanism, methanolysis is expected to take place following the amine-induced ring opening of the anhydride. In the base-catalyzed mechanism, methanol attack on one carbonyl group of the meso-anhydride is assisted by the ?-amino alcohol; the amine functionality abstracts the methanol proton. The chiral amino alcohol also catalyzes the reaction by stabilizing the oxyanion that forms upon ring opening of the anhydride by hydrogen bonding with its alcoholic moiety. Both stepwise and concerted pathways have been studied for the general base catalysis route. Transition structures for both are found to be lower in energy than in the nucleophilic mechanism. Overall this study has shed light on the mechanism of the ?-amino alcohol-catalyzed alcoholysis of cyclic meso-anhydrides, showing that the nucleophilic pathway is approximately 100 kJ mol(-1) higher in energy than the general base pathway.

Novel bifunctional sulfonamides catalyze an enantioselective conjugate addition.

Project description:A new bifunctional organocatalyst with a novel structural and functional motif has been developed. This bifunctional sulfonamide organocatalyst was used in the conjugate addition of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (13) to ?-nitrostyrenes (12). Yields up to 91% and enantiomeric excesses up to 79% were obtained in this reaction. This catalyst activates both 13 via its basic moiety and 12 through hydrogen bonding.

meso-3,6-Dioxopiperazine-2,5-diacet-amide.

Project description:The title compound, C(8)H(12)N(4)O(4), was obtained by cyclization of the two l-asparagine mol-ecules and reveals a crystallographic inversion symmetry, and accordingly the two stereogenic centres are of opposite chirality. Thus, an asymmetric unit comprises a half of a mol-ecule. The mol-ecules are assembled into a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network by N-H?O hydrogen bonds.

Ethyne Functionalized Meso-Phenothiazinyl-Phenyl-Porphyrins: Synthesis and Optical Properties of Free Base Versus Protonated Species.

Project description:Synthesis, structural characterization and photophysical properties for a series of new trans-A2B2- and A3B-type ethynyl functionalized meso-phenothiazinyl-phenyl porphyrin derivatives are described. The new compounds displayed the characteristic porphyrin absorption spectra slightly modified by weak auxochromic effects of the substituents and fluorescence emission in the range of 651-659 nm with 11-25% quantum yields. The changes recorded in the UV-vis absorption spectra in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) are consistent with the protonation of the two internal nitrogen atoms of the free-base porphyrin (19 nm bathochromic shift of the strong Soret band and one long wave absorption maxima situated in the range of 665-695 nm). Protonation of the phenothiazine substituents required increased amounts of TFA and produced a distinct hypsochromic shift of the long wave absorption maxima. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations of a porphyrin dication pointed out a saddle-distorted porphyrin ring as the ground-state geometry.

Highly Efficient Bifunctional Amide Functionalized Zn and Cd Metal Organic Frameworks for One-Pot Cascade Deacetalization-Knoevenagel Reactions.

Project description:A pyridine-based amide functionalized tetracarboxylic acid, 5,5'-(pyridine-2, 6-dicarbonyl)bis(azanediyl)}diisophthalic acid (H4L), was synthesized and its coordination chemistry toward zinc(II) and cadmium(II) ions was studied. The reactions of H4L with Zn(NO3)2.6H2O and Cd(NO3)2.4H2O led to its full or partial deprotonation, respectively, and the formation of the 2D coordination polymers [Zn2(L)(H2O)4]n.4n(H2O) (1) and [Cd3(HL)2(DMF)4]n.4n(DMF) (2) (DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide), respectively. They were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, photoluminescence, thermogravimetry, and single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. In 1, the L4- ligand is planar with every carboxylate anion binding a Zn(II) cation and giving rise to a 2D grid with the metals with tetrahedral environments. In 2, the combination of bridging HL3- and dimethylformamide to form trinuclear Cd(II) clusters engenders secondary building block units and generates a layer-type 2D network with the metals with octahedral and pentagonal bipyramid coordination geometries. The topological analyses of 1 and 2 reveal 2,4-connected and 3,6-connected binodal nets, respectively. On account of the presence of Lewis acid (Zn or Cd centers) as well as basic (uncoordinated pyridine and amide groups) sites, 1 and (to a much lower extent) 2 effectively catalyze the one-pot cascade deacetalization-Knoevenagel condensation reactions under quite mild conditions. They act as heterogeneous catalysts, being easy to recover and recycle without losing activity.

Well-Defined Poly(Ester Amide)-Based Homo- and Block Copolymers by One-Pot Organocatalytic Anionic Ring-Opening Copolymerization of N-Sulfonyl Aziridines and Cyclic Anhydrides.

Project description:We report a new synthetic methodology for poly(ester amide)s by anionic ring-opening copolymerization of N-sulfonyl aziridines and cyclic anhydrides. Phosphazenes organocatalysts have been found to promote a highly-active, controlled, and selective alternating copolymerization in the absence of any competitive side reaction (zwitterionic mechanism and exchange transacylations). Mechanistic studies have shown first-order dependence of the copolymerization rate in N-sulfonyl aziridines and phosphazenes, and zero-order in cyclic anhydrides. This one-pot methodology leads not only to homopolymers but also to poly(ester amide)-based block copolymers. Two catalytic cycles involving ring-opening alternating copolymerization of N-sulfonyl aziridines with cyclic anhydrides and ring-opening polymerization of N-sulfonyl aziridines have been proposed to explain the one pot synthesis of poly(ester amide)-based homo- and block copolymers.

Base-free enantioselective SN2 alkylation of 2-oxindoles via bifunctional phase-transfer catalysis.

Project description:N-Protected oxindole derivatives of unprecedented malleability bearing ester moieties at C-3 have been shown to participate in enantioselective phase-transfer-catalysed alkylations promoted by ad-hoc designed quaternary ammonium salts derived from quinine bearing hydrogen-bond donating substituents. For the first time in such phase-transfer-catalysed enolate alkylations, the reactions were carried out under base-free conditions. It was found that urea-based catalysts outperformed squaramide derivatives, and that the installation of a chlorine atom adjacent to the catalyst's quinoline moiety aided in avoiding selectivity-reducing complications related to the production of HBr in these processes. The influence of steric and electronic factors from both the perspective of the nucleophile and electrophile were investigated and levels of enantiocontrol up to 90% ee obtained. The synthetic utility of the methodology was demonstrated via the concise enantioselective synthesis of a potent CRTH2 receptor antagonist.

Copolymerization of epoxides with cyclic anhydrides catalyzed by dinuclear cobalt complexes.

Project description:The alternating copolymerization of epoxides with cyclic anhydrides (CAs) is a highly diverse synthetic method for polyesters as the polymers' architectures and properties can be easily controlled depending on the combination of two monomers. Thus, a variety of catalyst designs has been reported to prepare the desired copolymers efficiently. We herein report dinuclear cobalt-salen complexes with a benzene ring as a linker and their activities in copolymerization reactions. The dinuclear cobalt complexes showed a higher catalytic activity for the copolymerization of propylene oxide with phthalic anhydride than the corresponding mononuclear cobalt-salen complex and achieved one of the highest turnover frequencies ever reported. A variety of epoxides and CAs were also found to be copolymerized successfully by the dinuclear cobalt complex with a high catalytic activity.

Elucidation of the active conformation of cinchona alkaloid catalyst and chemical mechanism of alcoholysis of meso anhydrides.

Project description:Complementary to enantioselective transformations of planar functionalities, catalytic desymmetrization of meso compounds is another fundamentally important strategy for asymmetric synthesis. However, experimentally established stereochemical models on how a chiral catalyst discriminates between two enantiotopic functional groups in the desymmetrization of a meso substrate are particularly lacking. This article describes our endeavor to elucidate the chemical mechanism and characterization of the active conformation of the cinchona alkaloid-derived catalyst for a desymmetrization of meso cyclic anhydrides via asymmetric alcoholysis. First, our kinetic studies indicate that the cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed alcoholysis proceeds by a general base catalysis mechanism. Furthermore, the active conformer of the cinchona alkaloid-derived catalyst DHQD-PHN was clarified by catalyst conformation studies with a designed, rigid cinchona alkaloid derivative as a probe. These key mechanistic insights enabled us to construct a stereochemical model to rationalize how DHQD-PHN differentiates the two enantiotopic carbonyl groups in the transition state of the asymmetric alcoholysis of meso cyclic anhydrides. This model not only is consistent with the sense of asymmetric induction of the asymmetric alcoholysis but also provides a rationale on how the catalyst tolerates a broad range of cyclic anhydrides. These mechanistic insights further guided us to develop a novel practical catalyst for the enantioselective alcoholysis of meso cyclic anhydrides.
