Palladium-Catalyzed N-Arylation Reactions with Aziridine and Azetidine

2007

Studies on the viability of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl- or hetaryl bromides with the parent aziridine or azetidine showed that a wide range of N-arylaziridines and N-arylazetidines are accessible by this method. Ring cleavage of the N-arylaziridines or -azetidines thus produced does not occur under the applied reaction conditions. The synthetic utility of the method is illustrated by examples of double N-arylations with either aziridine or azetidine.

Mutagenicity of N-substituted phenanthrene 9,10-imines in Salmonella typhimurium and Chinese hamster V79 cells.

1986

We previously showed that some (nonsubstituted) aziridines derived from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (arene imines) elicit various mutagenic and genotoxic effects in bacteria and mammalian cells and that these arene imines are active at much lower concentrations than the corresponding epoxide analogues. In the present study, N-substituted derivatives of phenanthrene 9,10-imine were investigated. All 10 derivatives studied showed direct mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA100. Some of the compounds additionally exhibited weak effects in the strains TA98 and TA1537. Most N-substituted derivatives were weaker mutagens than unsubstituted phenanthrene 9,10-imine but stronger mutagens th…

An Easy Stereoselective Access to β,γ-Aziridino α-Amino Ester Derivatives via Mannich Reaction of Benzophenone Imines of Glycine Esters with N-Sulfon…

2007

Mannich-type addition of benzophenone imine glycinates across newly synthesized N-(p-toluenesulfonyl) alpha-chloroaldimines afforded gamma-chloro-alpha,beta-diamino ester derivatives with moderate diastereoselectivity as separable mixtures of anti and syn diastereomers. The gamma-chloro-alpha,beta-diamino esters were efficiently cyclized under basic conditions to the corresponding beta,gamma-aziridino alpha-amino ester derivatives, representing a new class of conformationally constrained heterocyclic alpha,beta-diamino acid derivatives. The relative configuration of the aziridines was determined via X-ray diffraction analysis. Mechanisms and intermediate transition states to explain the ste…

Synthesis of densely functionalized cispentacin derivatives through selective aziridination and aziridine opening reactions: Orthogonally protected d…

2014

A novel substrate-directed synthetic route to a series of highly functionalized, orthogonally protected di- or triaminocyclopentanecarboxylate derivatives with multiple chiral centres from an unsaturated bicyclic β-lactam has been accomplished by applying stereoselective ring C–C double bond aziridination with chloramine-T and phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide, followed by regioselective aziridine opening with different N,O nucleophiles and hydrides. The functionalization strategy was successfully extended for access to enantiomerically pure orthogonally protected triaminocarboxylates.

Can Experimental Electron-Density Studies be Used as a Tool to Predict Biologically Relevant Properties of Low-Molecular Weight Enzyme Ligands?

2013

The case of protease inhibitor model compounds incorporating an aziridine or epoxide ring is used to exemplify how application of experimental electron-density techniques can be used to explain the biological properties of low-molecular weight enzyme ligands. This is furthermore seen in the light of a comparison of crystal and enzyme environments employing QM/MM computations to elucidate to which extent the properties in the crystal can be used to predict behavior in the biological surrounding.

2007

The crystal structure of the title compound, C(16)H(16)FN(2)O(2) (+)·I(-), was determined as part of a study of the biological activity of isoxazolone derivatives as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. The X-ray crystal structure of 4-[4-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-2-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-isoxazol-3-yl]-1-methyl-pyridinium iodide showed the presence of the regioisomer 4-[3-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-2-methyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-isoxazol-4-yl]-1-methyl-pyridinium iodide. The synthesis of the former compound was achieved by reacting 4-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-3-(4-pyridyl)isoxazol-5(2H)-one after treatment with Et(3)N in dimethyl-formamide, with iodo-methane. The unexpected formation of the regioi…

A novel and selective fluoride opening of aziridines by XtalFluor-E. synthesis of fluorinated diamino acid derivatives.

2015

The selective introduction of fluorine onto the skeleton of an aminocyclopentane or cyclohexane carboxylate has been developed through a novel and efficient fluoride opening of an activated aziridine ring with XtalFluor-E. The reaction proceeded through a stereoselective aziridination of the olefinic bond of a bicyclic lactam and regioselective aziridine ring opening with difluorosulfiliminium tetrafluoroborate with the neighboring group assistance of the sulfonamide moiety to yield fluorinated diamino acid derivatives. The method based on the selective aziridine opening by fluoride has been generalized to afford access to mono- or bicyclic fluorinated substances.

1982

N-Ethylaziridine (1) was polymerized in water with HCl as initiator and copolymerized with N-(2-hydroxyethyl)aziridine (2). Rapid propagation and termination reactions were observed. The maximum yield increases with the initiator concentration, whereas the molecular weight decreases. This is due to the difference in basicity between the tertiary N-atoms of the two monomers and the tertiary and the terminal secondary N-atoms of the polymers, which causes tranfer and termination reactions. Macrocycles with a side chain on a quaternary N-atom are formed. During the copolymerization, the more basic 1 is preferentially incorporated into the copolymer chain. The copolymerization parameters can be…

Generation of Stereocenters Around a C3-Symmetric Cyclotriveratrylene Crown

2012

The oxidation of racemic methylthio-substituted C3-symmetric cyclotriveratrylene (CTV) 2 produces the corresponding trisulfoxides 3 as follows. Oxidation with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) in dichloromethane leads to the formation of a distribution of the four possible diastereomers that is relatively close to the statistical outcome, in which the C3-symmetric stereoisomers are the minor species. In contrast, the optically active Davis reagent [oxaziridine (+)-4] in carbon tetrachloride at room temperature leads to a biased (73 %) distribution in favor of the C3-symmetric MRRR/PSSS diastereomer of 3 with 56 % ee (PSSS enantiomer according to the model of Davis). Interestingly, when th…
