Mbandakamine-Type Naphthylisoquinoline Dimers and Related Alkaloids from the Central African Liana Ancistrocladus ealaensis with Antiparasitic and An…
2018
Four new dimeric naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, michellamine A5 (2) and mbandakamines C–E (4–6), were isolated from the Congolese plant Ancistrocladus ealaensis, along with the known dimer mbandakamine A (3). They represent constitutionally unsymmetric dimers, each consisting of two 5,8′-coupled naphthylisoquinoline monomers. While the molecular halves of michellamine A5 (2) are linked via C-6′ of both of the naphthalene moieties, i.e., via the least-hindered positions, so that the central biaryl axis is configurationally unstable and not an additional element of chirality, the mbandakamines 3–6 possess three consecutive stereogenic axes. Their monomeric units are linked through an unprece…
Direct High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Separation of Peptide Enantiomers: Study on Chiral Recognition by Systematic Evaluation of the Influe…
2002
All-R/all-S enantiomers of oligoalanines (Ala(n), n = 1-10) with N-terminal protection group have been separated by HPLC on chiral stationary phases based on various cinchona alkaloid selectors. Structure-enantioselectivity relationships derived by extensive selector structure optimization provided insights into binding mechanisms and chiral recognition. Their interpretation was supported by X-ray crystal structures of amino acid and dipeptide, respectively, in complex with chiral selector. Optimized selectors have bulky elements representing steric barriers and deep binding pockets that afforded very high enantioselectivities; e.g., for the all-R and all-S enantiomers of N-(3,5-dinitrobenz…
Synthesis and NMR characterization of seven new substituted pyridine N-oxides
2008
Abstract Seven 3-substituted (alkylamino, alkylnitramino and alkylnitrosoamino) derivatives of pyridine N-oxide have been prepared and their 1H, 13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts assigned based on PFG 1H, 13C HMQC and PFG 1H, X (X = 13C or 15N) HMBC experiments. In the sterically most crowded congener, 3-ethylnitramino-4-nitropyridine N-oxide, chemical non-equivalence or diastereotopicity of the N–CH2 protons was observed probably due to the chirality of the adjacent amino nitrogen caused by its restricted inversion. The coalescence temperature for the 1H NMR chemical shifts of these geminal protons has been determined and the corresponding ΔG∗ for the energy barrier of the dynamic process ha…
Rational Synthesis of Multicyclic Bis[2]catenanes
2004
Bis-loop tetraurea calix[4]arene 6 has been prepared by acylation of the wide-rim calix[4]arene tetraamine 1 with the activated bis(urethane) 8 under dilution conditions. Similarly the bis(Boc-protected) tetraamine 2 is converted into the mono-loop derivative 3 which after deprotection and acylation gives the bisalkenyl derivative 5. In apolar solvents this tetraurea calix[4]arene 5 forms regioselectively a single hydrogen-bonded homodimer, from which the bis[2]catenane 10 a is formed in 49 % by a metathesis reaction followed by hydrogenation. Bis-loop derivative 6 forms no homodimers for steric reasons, but a stoichiometric mixture with the open-chain tetraalkenyl derivative 7 a contains e…
Steric vs. electronic stereocontrol in syndio- or iso-selective ROP of functional chiral β-lactones mediated by achiral yttrium-bisphenolate complexes
2018
International audience; Origins of stereoselectivity in ROP of racemic chiral cyclic esters promoted by achiral yttrium complexes, resulting in the formation of highly heterotactic polylactide, and highly syndiotactic or, more uniquely, highly isotactic poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)s, are discussed. A close interplay between the nature of the cyclic ester, most particularly of the exocyclic functional chain installed on the chiral center of β-lactones, and the ortho-substituents installed on the phenolate rings of the ligand, results in various determining secondary interactions of steric and also electronic nature.
The proton complex of a diaza-macropentacycle: structure, slow formation, and chirality induction by ion pairing with the optically active 1,1'-binap…
2008
The protonation of a sterically crowded [N2S6] macropentacycle (1) with 1 equiv of CF3SO3H in CDCl3 is slow and gives the singly (oo(+) [1 x H](+)) and doubly (o(+)o(+) [1 x 2H](2+)) protonated forms as kinetic products, the i(+)o form of [1 x H](+) being the thermodynamic product. i(+)o [1 x H](+) is C3 helically chiral in the solid state and in solution. The barrier to racemization (DeltaG(double dagger)) of the [1 x H](+) propeller is71 kJ mol(-1). The ammonium proton is encapsulated in the tetrahedral coordination sphere provided by the endo (i) nitrogen bridgehead atom and the three proximal thioether sulfurs, which makes [1 x H](+) a proton complex. Use of the optically active acid (R…
Synthesis and Spectral and Structural Characterization of a New Series of Bis-Strapped Chiral Porphyrins Derived from L-Proline
2001
International audience; New chiral porphyrins were obtained in reasonable yields in three steps, starting from the áâáâ atropisomer of mesotetrakis(o-aminophenyl)porphyrin (TAPP). These potential catalysts for the enantioselective epoxidation of alkenes were obtained by the reaction of different linkers on the same Lprolinoyl-picket porphyrin. Their 1H NMR spectral characteristics, as well as the crystal structure of one of them, clearly indicate that the orientation of the proline cycle depends on the linker used to tether the two pickets on each side of the porphyrin. The same linker is employed for both sides of the porphyrin; hence the resulting D2-symmetric superstructure.
Studium zum Vorgang der Wasserstoffübertragung, 50. Elektroreduktion und phasentransferkatalysierte Borhydrid-reduktion prochiraler Ketone
1978
Prochirale Carbonylverbindungen wurden in die entsprechenden sekundaren Alkohole ubergefuhrt a) durch Elektroreduktion und b) mit NaBH4, in beiden Fallen mit den gleichen Ephedriniumsalzen, und zwar fur a) als optisch aktive Leitsalze und fur b) als optisch aktive Phasentransfer-Katalysatoren. Es wurden bei der Elektroreduktion und bei der Phasentransfer-Katalyse die Ausbeuten an Carbinol (und Pinakol)3), die optische Ausbeute und die absolute Konfiguration des bevorzugt gebildeten Enantiomeren bestimmt. In der uberwiegenden Mehrzahl der untersuchten Beispiele besitzen die unter Mitwirkung optisch aktiver Ephedriniumsalze nach beiden Methoden erhaltenen Uberschusenantiomeren die entgegenges…
On the Structure and Chiral Aggregation of Liquid Crystalline Star‐Shaped Triazines H‐Bonded to Benzoic Acids
2020
The ability of a star-shaped tris(triazolyl)triazine derivative to hierarchically build supramolecular chiral columnar organizations through the formation of H-bonded complexes with benzoic acids was studied from a theoretical and experimental point of view. The combined study has been done at three different levels including the study of the structure of the triazine core, the association with benzoic acids in stoichiometry 1:3, and the assembly of 1:3 complexes in helical aggregates. Although the star-shaped triazine core crystallizes in a non-C3 conformation, the C3 -symmetric conformation is theoretically predicted to be more stable and gives rise to a favorable C3 supramolecular 1:3 co…
