Straightforward Synthesis of Bifunctional Phosphorus Phenols via Phosphination of In Situ Generated o-Quinone Methides.

ABSTRACT: An efficient and practical approach towards bifunctional phosphorus phenols has been developed through a reaction of diphenylphosphine oxide and the o-quinone methides in situ generated from 2-tosylalkyl phenols under basic conditions. This protocol features simple experimental procedures under mild conditions and is easily scaled up. With this method, a variety of diarylmethyl phosphine oxides can be produced with up to 92% yield.

Asymmetric Synthesis of 2,3-Dihydrobenzofurans by a [4+1] Annulation Between Ammonium Ylides and In Situ Generated o-Quinone Methides.

Project description:A highly enantio- and diastereoselective [4+1] annulation between in situ generated ammonium ylides and o-quinone methides for the synthesis of a variety of 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans has been developed. The key factors controlling the reactivity and stereoselectivity were systematically investigated by experimental and computational means and the energy profiles obtained provide a deeper insight into the mechanistic details of this reaction.

Synthesis of 1,3-Diynes via Cadiot-Chodkiewicz Coupling of Volatile, in Situ Generated Bromoalkynes.

Project description:A convenient Cadiot-Chodkiewicz protocol that facilitates the use of low molecular weight alkyne coupling partners is described. The method entails an in situ elimination from a dibromoolefin precursor and immediate subjection to copper-catalyzed conditions, circumventing the hazards of volatile brominated alkynes. The scope of this method is described, and the internal 1,3-diyne products are preliminarily evaluated in ruthenium-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions.

In Situ-Generated Niobium-Catalyzed Synthesis of 3-Pyrroline Derivatives via Ring-Closing Metathesis Reactions.

Project description:An active in situ-generated Nb complex was used as a catalyst in the ring-closing metathesis reaction of N,N-diallyl-p-toluenesulfonamide to afford the corresponding 3-pyrroline derivative. The Nb complex was formed from NbCl5, trimethylsilyl chloride, Zn, and PhCHCl2 in tetrahydrofuran. The Nb complex displayed high catalytic activity toward ring-closing metathesis reactions.

A Straightforward Synthesis of Polyketides via Ester Dienolate Matteson Homologation.

Project description:Application of ester dienolates as nucleophiles in Matteson homologations allows for the stereoselective synthesis of highly substituted ?,?-unsaturated ?-hydroxy carboxyl acids, structural motifs widespread found in polyketide natural products. The protocol is rather flexible and permits the introduction of substituents and functionalities also at those positions which are not accessible by the commonly used aldol reaction. Therefore, this ester dienolate Matteson approach is an interesting alternative to the "classical" polyketide syntheses.

Phenolic Oxidation Using H2O2 via in Situ Generated para-Quinone Methides for the Preparation of para-Spiroepoxydienones.

Project description:Phenols are attractive starting materials for the preparation of highly substituted cyclohexane rings via dearomative processes. Herein we report an efficient preparation of dearomatized 1-oxaspiro[2.5]octa-4,7-dien-6-ones (para-spiroepoxydienones) via the nucleophilic epoxidation of in situ generated para-quinone methides from 4-(hydroxymethyl)phenols using aqueous H2O2. The developed protocol bypasses the need for stoichiometric bismuth reagents or diazomethane, which are frequently deployed for p-spiroepoxydienone preparation. The p-spiroepoxydienones are further elaborated in numerous downstream complexity-building transformations.

Synthesis of catechols from phenols via Pd-catalyzed silanol-directed C-H oxygenation.

Project description:A silanol-directed, Pd-catalyzed C-H oxygenation of phenols into catechols is presented. This method is highly site selective and general, as it allows for oxygenation of not only electron-neutral but also electron-poor phenols. This method operates via a silanol-directed acetoxylation, followed by a subsequent acid-catalyzed cyclization reaction into a cyclic silicon-protected catechol. A routine desilylation of the silacyle with TBAF uncovers the catechol product.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Spirooxindoles via Nucleophilic Epoxidation Promoted by Bifunctional Organocatalysts.

Project description:Taking into account the postulated reaction mechanism for the organocatalytic epoxidation of electron-poor olefins developed by our laboratory, we have investigated the key factors able to positively influence the H-bond network installed inside the substrate/catalyst/oxidizing agent. With this aim, we have: (i) tested a few catalysts displaying various effects that noticeably differ in terms of steric hindrance and electron demand; (ii) employed ?-alkylidene oxindoles decorated with different substituents on the aromatic ring (11a-g), the exocylic double bond (11h-l), and the amide moiety (11m-v). The observed results suggest that the modification of the electron-withdrawing group (EWG) weakly conditions the overall outcomes, and conversely a strong influence is unambiguously ascribable to either the N-protected or N-unprotected lactam framework. Specifically, when the NH free substrates (11m-u) are employed, an inversion of the stereochemical control is observed, while the introduction of a Boc protecting group affords the desired product 12v in excellent enantioselectivity (97:3 er).

Synthesis of chamaecypanone C analogues from in situ-generated cyclopentadienones and their biological evaluation.

Project description:A rhodium-catalyzed dehydrogenation protocol for the conversion of 3,5-diarylcyclopentenones to the corresponding 2,4-diarylcyclopentadienones has been developed. With this protocol, analogues of the cytotoxic agent chamaecypanone C have been synthesized via Diels-Alder cycloaddition between the cyclopentadienones and in situ-generated o-quinols. Biological evaluation of these analogues revealed a compound with higher activity as a microtubule inhibitor and cytotoxic agent in comparison with the parent structure.

Two-step synthesis of chiral fused tricyclic scaffolds from phenols via desymmetrization on nickel.

Project description:Tricyclic furan derivatives with multiple chiral centers are ubiquitous in natural products. Construction of such tricyclic scaffolds in a stereocontrolled, step-economic, and atom-economic manner is a key challenge. Here we show a nickel-catalyzed highly enantioselective synthesis of hydronaphtho[1,8-bc]furans with five contiguous chiral centers via desymmetrization of alkynyl-cyclohexadienone by oxidative cyclization and following formal [4?+?2] cycloaddition processes. Alkynyl-cyclohexadienone was synthesized in one step from easily accessible phenols. This reaction represents excellent chemo-selectivity, regio-selectivity, diastereo-selectivity, and enantio-selectivity (single diastereomer, up to 99% ee). An extraordinary regioselectivity in the formal [4?+?2] cycloaddition step with enones revealed the diverse reactivity of the nickelacycle intermediate. Desymmetrization of alkynyl-cyclohexadienones via oxidative cyclization on nickel was supported by the isolation of a nickelacycle from a stoichiometric reaction. Enantioenriched tricyclic products contain various functional groups such as C=O and C=C. The synthetic utility of these products was demonstrated by derivatization of these functional groups.Tricyclic furanic compounds with multiple chiral centers are found in a variety of natural products. Here, the authors show a highly enantioselective nickel-catalyzed procedure to access tricyclic oxygen-containing scaffolds with five contiguous chiral centers.
