One-Pot Synthesis to Quinone-Based Diaza[3.3]cyclophanes
2017
A simple one-pot synthesis to [3.3]cyclophanes that involves quinone moieties was found. The protocol tolerates a variety of amines that include aliphatic and aromatic structures with different functional groups, such as hydroxy groups, amides, and terminal double and triple bonds. The straightforward synthesis can be performed by a twofold N-alkylation reaction with 2,5-bis(bromomethyl)-3,6-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (1). Neither anhydrous nor inert conditions are required. Various amines can be employed without any activating groups, several functionalities at end groups are tolerated, and the cyclophanes generated can be easily modified or embedded into larger molecular architectures. The…
Light-Induced Alkylation of (Hetero)aromatic Nitriles in a Transition-Metal-Free C–C-Bond Metathesis
2017
A light-induced C–C-σ-bond metathesis was achieved through transition-metal-free activation of an unstrained C(sp3)–C(sp3)-σ-bond in 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines. A photoredox-mediated single-electron oxidation of these precursor amines yield radical cations which undergo a homolytic cleavage of a C(sp3)–C(sp3)-σ-bond rather than the well-known α-C–H-scission. The resulting carbon-centered radicals are used in the ipso-substitution of (hetero)aromatic nitriles proceeding through another single-electron transfer-mediated C–C-bond cleavage and formation.
A reinvestigation of compound CpMo(PMe3)2(CH3)2: Alkylation by single electron transfer and radical addition?
2001
International audience; The synthesis of the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) diphosphine dimethyl complex CpMo(PMe3)2(CH3)2 has been reinvestigated. The compound was obtained from the corresponding dichloro complex CpMo(PMe3)2Cl2 and methyllithium at low temperatures and isolated as a crystalline product by conducting all operations at temperatures lower than −10 °C. The complex is thermally unstable at room temperature but has been fully characterised by EPR spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and X-ray diffraction. The formation reaction is retarded by excess phosphine. On the basis of this and other related observations, a mechanism involving phosphine pre-dissociation followed by single elec…
Application of hydrolases and probiotic Pediococcus acidilactici BaltBio01 strain for cereal by-products conversion to bioproduct for food/feed
2017
The aim of this study was to apply the enzymatic treatment and fermentation by Pediococcus acidilactici BaltBio01 strain for industrial cereal by-products conversion to food/feed bioproducts with high amount of probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB). LAB propagated in potato media and spray-dried remained viable during 12months (7.0 log10 cfu/g) of storage and was used as a starter for cereal by-products fermentation. The changes of microbial profile, biogenic amines (BAs), mycotoxins, lactic acid (Lþ/D), lignans and alkylresorcinols (ARs) contents in fermented cereal by-product were analysed. Cereal by-products enzymatic hydrolysis before fermentation allows to obtain a higher count of LAB d…
Few layer 2D pnictogens catalyze the alkylation of soft nucleophiles with esters
2019
Group 15 elements in zero oxidation state (P, As, Sb and Bi), also called pnictogens, are rarely used in catalysis due to the difficulties associated in preparing well–structured and stable materials. Here, we report on the synthesis of highly exfoliated, few layer 2D phosphorene and antimonene in zero oxidation state, suspended in an ionic liquid, with the native atoms ready to interact with external reagents while avoiding aerobic or aqueous decomposition pathways, and on their use as efficient catalysts for the alkylation of nucleophiles with esters. The few layer pnictogen material circumvents the extremely harsh reaction conditions associated to previous superacid–catalyzed alkylations…
Flipping of alkylated DNA damage bridges base and nucleotide excision repair
2009
Alkyltransferase-like proteins (ATLs) share functional motifs with the cancer chemotherapy target O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) and paradoxically protect cells from the biological effects of DNA alkylation damage, despite lacking the reactive cysteine and alkyltransferase activity of AGT. Here we determine Schizosaccharomyces pombe ATL structures without and with damaged DNA containing the endogenous lesion O6-methylguanine or cigarette-smoke-derived O6-4-(3-pyridyl)-4-oxobutylguanine. These results reveal non-enzymatic DNA nucleotide flipping plus increased DNA distortion and binding pocket size compared to AGT. Our analysis of lesion-binding site conservation identifies new A…
Desulfurization and ring opening of thiirane induced by tantalocene trihydride complexes: Synthesis, reactivity and X-ray structure of Cp′2Ta(=S)(S-i…
1999
The reaction of the tantalocene trihydride complexes Cp′ 2 TaH 3 1 (Cp′= η 5 -C 5 H 4 t Bu) or Cp″CpTaH 3 1′ (Cp″= η 5 -C 5 H 2 -1,2-Me 2 -4- t Bu) with propylene sulfide was found to proceed via an unprecedented sulfur transfer and regioselective ring opening reaction at once to yield sulfido-thiolato tantalocene complexes Cp′ 2 Ta(S)(S- i Pr) 2a whose structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography or Cp″CpTa(S)(S- i Pr) 2′a . Complex 1 reacts with ethylene sulfide to give Cp′ 2 Ta(S)(S–Et) 2b . The reactivity of 2a towards a variety of electrophilic moities has been investigated: protonation (with HBF 4 ) and alkylation (with MeI) reactions occur at the terminal sulfur ligand, …
Diastereoselective synthesis of 6-functionalized 4-aryl-1,3-oxazinan-2-ones and their application in the synthesis of 3-aryl-1,3-aminoalcohols and 6-…
2010
Abstract Halocyclocarbamation of benzyl N -(1-phenyl-3-butenyl)carbamates afforded 6-functionalized 4-aryl-1,3-oxazinan-2-ones with moderate to excellent diastereoselectivity depending on the N -substituent. Importantly, in contrast to reported cyclocarbamations of homoallylic carbamates, which are generally trans -diastereoselective, cyclization of N -unsubstituted Cbz-protected homoallylamines led to cis -1,3-oxazinan-2-ones, predominantly. The use of N -benzylated and in situ prepared N -silylated derivatives resulted however in trans -selectivity. Transition states are proposed to explain the stereochemical influence of the N -substituent on the cyclocarbamations. The functionalized 1,3…

Die spontane Autoxydation N,N-dialkylierter Arylamine verlauft langsam. Sie wird durch Essigsaure, Azoisobuttersauredinitril (AIBN), Kobaltverbindungen, Benzylchlorid und Essigsaureanhydrid beschleunigt. Essigsaureanhydrid uberfuhrt die als Inhibitoren sehr wirksamen, durch oxydative Entalkylierung entstandenen sek. Amine in die als Inhibitoren wirkungslosen N-Acetylderivate (Ausbeute bis 90%). Die bei der Autoxydation als Kettentrager wirksamen Aminohydroperoxyde I konnen (a) durch Kondensation in die Dialkylperoxyde II ubergefuhrt und (b) durch Triphenylphosphin desoxygeniert werden. Die Amindialkylperoxyde II lassen sich in Substanz aus den Autoxydationsansatzen isolieren. AIBN lost unte…
