Experimental and DFT studies on competitive heterocyclic rearrangements. part 2: A one-atom side-chain versus the classic three-atom side-chain (Boul…
2007
The experimental investigation of the base-catalyzed rearrangements of 3-acylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles evidenced a new reaction pathway which competes with the well-known ring-degenerate Boulton- Katritzky rearrangement (BKR). The new reaction consists of a one-atom side-chain rearrangement that is base-activated, occurs at a higher temperature than the BKR, and irreversibly leads to the corresponding 2-acylamino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles. An extensive DFT study is reported to elucidate the proposed reaction mechanism and to compare the three possible inherent routes: (i) the reversible three-atom side-chain ring-degenerate BKR, (ii) the ring contraction-ring expansion route (RCRE), and (iii) the one…
New approach to condensed pyrid-2-ones
2002
We wish to report a simple procedure for the preparation of 5-substituted-thienopyridin-7-ones and 7-substituted-1,6-naphthyridin-5(6H)-ones, in good yields, from the dianions of 3-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic and 2-methylnicotinic acids on treatment with nitriles.

Eight-membered heterocycles with two heteroatoms in a 1,3-relationship of interest in medicinal chemistry
2022
This chapter deals with 1,3-diheterocines, eight-membered heterocyclic systems with two heteroatoms, N, O and S, in a 1,3 relationship, exhibiting biological properties and exhaustively covers the literature from 2007 to the end of November 2019. The biological results of 1,3-diazocines, 1,3-oxazocines, 1,3-dioxocins and 1,3-thiazocines, that are the largest class of 1,3-diheterocines, were collected together with the few results available for 1,3-oxathiocin and 1,3-dithiocin derivatives at that time.
Iodolactonization of 3-Alkynylthiophene-2-Carboxylic and 3-Alkynylpicolinic Acids for the Synthesis of Fused Heterocycles
2020
The iodolactonization of 3-alkynylthiophene-2-carboxylic acids and 3-alkynylpicolinic acids has been investigated. Using I2 as the iodine source and NaHCO3 as the base in MeCN, the process took place smoothly to afford thienopyranones and pyranopyridinones, respectively, from 6-endo-dig cyclization. The method also worked nicely for the transformation of 2-(phenylethynyl)thiophene-3-carboxylic acid and 3-(phenylethynyl) isonicotinic acid into 7-iodo-6-phenyl-4H-thieno[3,2-c]- pyran-4-one and 4-iodo-3-phenyl-1H-pyrano[4,3-c]pyridin-1- one, respectively. Although with some 3-alkynylpicolinic acids the process led to a mixture of the 6-endo-dig and 5-exo-dig products, it could be still made se…
2,5-Bis[(E)-2-phenylethenyl]-3,6-bis(pyridin-2-yl)pyrazine
2020
The molecule of the title compound, C30H22N4, exhibits inversion symmetry adopting the shape of a St Andrew's Cross. It shows dihedral angles between adjacent aryl units of around 50° whereas torsion angles of ca 10° are found along the arylene vinylene path.
1,2,3-Triazole in Heterocyclic Compounds, Endowed with Biological Activity, through 1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions
2014
1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reactions can be considered a powerful synthetic tool in the building of heterocyclic rings, with applications in different fields. In this review we focus on the synthesis of biologically active compounds possessing the 1,2,3-triazole core through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. The 1,2,3-triazole skeleton can be present as a single disubstituted ring, as a linker between two molecules, or embedded in a polyheterocycle. The cycloaddition reactions are usually catalysed by copper or ruthenium. Domino reactions can be achieved through dipolarophile anion formation, generally followed by cyclisation. The variety of attainable heterocyclic structures gives an ill…
α,β-Dehydroamino acids in naturally occurring peptides
2014
α,β-Dehydroamino acids are naturally occurring non-coded amino acids, found primarily in peptides. The review focuses on the type of α,β-dehydroamino acids, the structure of dehydropeptides, the source of their origin and bioactivity. Dehydropeptides are isolated primarily from bacteria and less often from fungi, marine invertebrates or even higher plants. They reveal mainly antibiotic, antifungal, antitumour, and phytotoxic activity. More than 60 different structures were classified, which often cover broad families of peptides. 37 different structural units containing the α,β-dehydroamino acid residues were shown including various side chains, Z and E isomers, and main modifications: meth…
Direct arylation of heterocycles: the performances of ferrocene-based polyphosphane ligands in palladium-catalyzed C-H bond activation
2010
International audience; The palladium-catalyzed direct arylation of alkylated- furan, thiophene, and thiazole and benzoxazole heterocycles with electronically and sterically deactivated bromoarenes was selectively and efficiently promoted by ferrocenyl polyphosphanes. In this C[BOND]H bond activation reaction of heteroaromatics, the performances of polydentate di-, tri-, and tetraphosphane ligands were compared, showing that the triphosphane 1,1′,2-tris(diphenylphosphino)-4-tert-butylferrocene 3 was the most effective for the coupling. The introduction of more electron-donating (iPr) or electron-withdrawing (furyl) groups on the phosphorus atoms did not improve the ligand performances. The …
Multiple Roles of Isocyanides in Palladium-Catalyzed Imidoylative Couplings: A Mechanistic Study
2016
International audience; Kinetic, spectroscopic and computational studies examining a palladium-catalyzed imidoylative coupling highlight the dual role of isocyanides as both substrates and ligands for this class of transformations. The synthesis of secondary amides from aryl halides and water is presented as a case study. The kinetics of the oxidative addition of ArI with RNC-ligated Pd-0 species have been studied and the resulting imidoyl complex [(ArC=NR)Pd(CNR)(2)I] (Ar=4-F-C6H4, R = tBu) has been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction. The unprecedented ability of this RNC-ligated imidoyl-Pd complex to undergo reductive elimination at room temperature to give the amide in the p…
Dehydrogenative Anodic C−C Coupling of Phenols Bearing Electron‐Withdrawing Groups
2019
Abstract We herein present a metal‐free, electrosynthetic method that enables the direct dehydrogenative coupling reactions of phenols carrying electron‐withdrawing groups for the first time. The reactions are easy to conduct and scalable, as they are carried out in undivided cells and obviate the necessity for additional supporting electrolyte. As such, this conversion is efficient, practical, and thereby environmentally friendly, as production of waste is minimized. The method features a broad substrate scope, and a variety of functional groups are tolerated, providing easy access to precursors for novel polydentate ligands and even heterocycles such as dibenzofurans.
