2010

Abstract Selectivity of the domino [5+2]/[4+2] cycloaddition reactions of a β-silyloxy-γ-pyrone bearing a tethered alkene with two substituted 1,3-butadienes have been theoretically studied at the B3LYP/6-31G∗//AM1 and B3LYP/6-31G∗ computational levels. Analysis of these results allow explaining the regio, stereo and chemoselectivity observed experimentally at these domino reactions. Selectivity outcome is reproduced by these calculations.

Cycloaddition reactions of benzothiete and hetero dienophiles for the synthesis of heterocyclic systems

1986

Abstract Benzothiete ( 1 ) undergoes cycloaddition reactions with hetero dienophiles with NN-, NO- or CO- double bonds, leading to six-membered heterocyclic ring systems of 2H-3,4-dihydro-1,2,3-benzothiadiazine ( 3 ), 4H-3,1,2-benzoxathiazine ( 4 ) and 4H-3,1-benzoxathiin.

Catalytic Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of 2-Imidazolinones.

2019

Chiral cyclic ureas (2-imidazolinones) were prepared by the reaction of nitrones and isocyanoacetate esters using a multicatalytic system that combines a bifunctional Brønsted base-squaramide organocatalyst and Ag+ as a Lewis acid. The reaction could be achieved with a range of nitrones derived from aryl- and cycloalkylaldehydes with moderate diastereo- and good enantioselectivity. A plausible mechanism involving an initial formal [3 + 3] cycloaddition of the nitrone and isocyanoacetate ester, followed by rearrangement to an aminoisocyanate and cyclization to the imidazolinone, is proposed.

ChemInform Abstract: Reactions of the Hydrofluoroborate Salts of Open-Chain Analogues of Reissert Compounds with Some α,β-Ethylenic Esters.

2010

The reaction of the hydrofluoroborate salt of an open-chain analogue of a Reissert compound with some α,β-ethylenic esters does not give a [4 + 2] cycloadduct, as previously described in the case of ethyl acrylate. The reaction starts with a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a munchnone imine 5c, d. The [3 + 2] cycloadducts 13 evolve via a rearrangement–condensation sequence to give a substituted 2-pyridone derivative 18 or 19. The proposed mechanism has been verified by the isolation and structural X-ray analysis of some compounds of the reaction sequence.

Lewis Acid Induced [2+2] Cycloadditions of Silyl Enol Ethers with α,β-Unsaturated Esters: A DFT Analysis

2005

The Lewis acid (LA) induced cycloaddition of trimethysilyl vinyl ether with methyl acrylate has been studied by DFT methods at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. In the absence of an LA, a [4+2] cycloaddition between the silyl enol ether and methyl acrylate in the s-cis conformation takes place through an asynchronous, concerted bond-formation process. This cycloaddition presents a large activation enthalpy of 21.1 kcal mol–1. Coordination of the LA AlCl3 to the carbonyl oxygen atom of methyl acrylate yields a change of molecular mechanism from a concerted to a two-step mechanism and produces a drastic reduction of the activation energy. This stepwise mechanism is initialized by the nucleophilic attac…

ChemInform Abstract: Gold(I)-Catalyzed Intermolecular Cycloaddition of Allenamides with α,β-Unsaturated Hydrazones: Efficient Access to Highly Substi…

2015

α,β-Unsaturated N,N-dialkyl hydrazones undergo a mild [2 + 2] cycloaddition to allenamides when treated with a suitable gold catalyst. The method, which represents the first application of N,N-dialkyl hydrazones in gold catalysis, is compatible with a wide variety of substituents at the alkenyl moiety of the hydrazone component, proceeds with excellent levels of regio- and diastereoselectivity, and provides densely substituted cyclobutanes with good to excellent yields.

An AM1 theoretical study on the effect of Zn2+ Lewis acid catalysis on the mechanism of the cycloaddition between 3-phenyl-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-o…

2002

Abstract The mechanism of the Diels–Alder reaction between 3-phenyl-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-one and cyclopentadiene has been investigated with the AM1 semiempirical method. Stationary points for two reactive channels, endo - cis and exo - cis , have been characterized. The role of the Lewis acid catalyst has been modeled taking into account the formation of a complex between Zn 2+ and the carbonyl oxygen atom and the pyridyl nitrogen atom of the 3-phenyl-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-one system with and without the presence of two molecules of water around the cation. The mechanism of the uncatalyzed reaction corresponds to a concerted process, but in the presence of Lewis acid catalyst the mec…

Theoretical studies on cycloaddition reactions

2014

Cycloaddition reactions represent one of the most powerful processes in organic chemistry. The most common types of cycloaddition reactions are the Diels-Alder (DA) and the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions (1,3-DCs) which lead to five and six membered rings, respectively. In our ongoing efforts to contribute to the understanding of DA and 1,3-DCs; we studied the following using the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory: 1. The 1,3-DCs of the pyridinium-3-olates and pyrazinium-3-olates with methyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate [1,2]. 2. The competitive hetero-DA and 1,3-DCs of methyl glyoxylate oxime and its tautomeric nitrone with cyclopentadiene in the absence and in the presence of BF3 as …

Multidentate Polysarcosine-Based Ligands for Water-Soluble Quantum Dots

2016

We describe the synthesis of heterotelechelic polysarcosine polymers and their use as multidentate ligands in the preparation of stable water-soluble quantum dots (QDs). Orthogonally functionalized polysarcosine with amine and dibenzocyclooctyl (DBCO) end groups is obtained by ring-opening polymerization of N-methylglycine N-carboxyanhydride with DBCO amine as initiator. In a first postpolymerization modification step, the future biological activity of the polymeric ligands is adjusted by modification of the amine terminus. Then, in a second postpolymerization modification step, azide functionalized di- and tridentate anchor compounds are introduced to the DBCO terminus of the polysarcosine…
