Cellulose-click-ferrocenes as docking spots for cyclodextrin
2012
A novel synthesis of ferrocene-modified cellulose, prepared from 6-azido-6-deoxy-cellulose and ethynylferrocene, is presented. The two components were coupled via copper-catalyzed click-type cycloaddition under microwave-assisted conditions. The surface structure of the cellulose derivative was investigated in comparison with that of pure, microcrystalline cellulose using electron microscopy (scanning, transmission and scanning transmission), showing iron atoms of ferrocene as homogeneously distributed particles. They are detectable as clear signals in the energy-dispersive X-ray profile. In addition, Rame-β-cyclodextrin was supramolecularly attached to cellulose and the complex formed was …
Synthesis of novel isoxazoline-fused cispentacin stereoisomers
2009
Abstract New isoxazoline-fused cispentacins were prepared by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides to β-amino esters containing a cyclopentene skeleton. This synthetic procedure gave regio- and diastereoisomers of the cispentacins. The synthetic route was extended to the synthesis of these compounds in enantiomerically pure form.
Selective nitrile oxide dipolar cycloaddition for the synthesis of highly functionalized β-aminocyclohexanecarboxylate stereoisomers
2012
Highly functionalized β-aminocyclohexanecarboxylate regio- and stereoisomers were synthesized from a bicyclic β-lactam by successive regioselective iodolactonization, stereo- and regioselective nitrile oxide cycloaddition, lactone ring-opening and isoxazoline ring-opening.
On the Unique Reactivity of Pd(OAc)2with Organic Azides: Expedient Synthesis of Nitriles and Imines
2013
Organic azides are well-established as versatile compounds that can act as precursors of different heterocycles (triazoles, triazolines, tetrazoles, etc.) or other nitrogen-containing compounds, such as amines (Staudinger reduction, Curtius rearrangement) or imines (Schmidt rearrangement, aza-Wittig reaction).1 Besides the ubiquitous copper-catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction,2 two applications of organic azides have recently attracted the interest of the synthetic community: 1) the preparation of aziridines through the generation of nitrenes3 and 2) the synthesis of nitriles. We were particularly interested in the latter application, owing to the importance of the cyano group in …
Quantitative characterization of the global electrophilicity pattern of some reagents involved in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions
2003
Abstract The global electrophilicity power, ω, of a series of dipoles and dipolarophiles commonly used in 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions may be conveniently classified within a unique relative scale. The effects of chemical substitution on the electrophilicity of molecules have been evaluated using a representative set of electron-withdrawing and electron-releasing groups for a series of dipoles including nitrone, nitrile oxide and azide derivatives. The absolute scale of electrophilicity is used to rationalize the chemical reactivity of these species as compared to the static reactivity pattern of the reagents involved in the Diels–Alder reactions.
Understanding the origin of the asynchronicity in bond-formation in polar cycloaddition reactions. A DFT study of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition react…
2012
The origin of the asynchronicity in bond-formation in polar cycloadditions has been studied by an ELF analysis of the electron reorganisation along the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of Padwa's carbonyl ylide 4 with the 1,2-benzoquinone 8. This reaction presents an unexpected asynchronous bond-formation, which is initialised through the nucleophilic attack of Padwa's carbonyl ylide on the carbonyl oxygen atom of the strongly electrophilically activated 1,2-benzoquinone. The present study allows for the establishment that along an asynchronous bond-formation, the more favourable two-center interaction begins at the most electrophilic center, which is the center with the highest spin density achie…

Revisiting the photochemical synthesis of [FeFe]-hydrogenase mimics: reaction optimization, mechanistic study and electrochemical behaviour
2020
The photoreaction of [(μ-S)2Fe2(CO)6] and alkenes or alkynes has been optimized to readily obtain functionalized [FeFe]-hydrogenase mimics. Irradiation under low CO pressure in THF produces the corresponding photo-adducts in good/acceptable (alkenes/alkynes) yields, with retention of the starting olefin stereochemistry. DFT-calculations provide plausible reaction pathways in both, singlet and triplet states. The DFT-calculation based in the singlet state is energetically more favorable. The electrochemical behavior of the synthesized compounds is also presented, including studies in acidic media. The electrochemical properties of the products vary in the presence of a double bond (cycloaddi…
A DFT study of the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between hindered thiocarbonyl ylides and tetracyanoethylene
2004
Abstract The mechanism for the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between the hindered thiocarbonyl ylide 1 and tetracyanoethylene 2 has been studied at the B3LYP/6-31G ∗ level. Formation of the [3+2] cycloadduct 4 takes place through a stepwise mechanism that is initiated by the nucleophilic attack of the thiocarbonyl ylide 1 to the ethylene derivative 2 to give a zwitterionic intermediate IN . The subsequent cyclization of IN yields a seven-membered cyclic ketene imine 6 , which equilibrates with the thermodynamically more stable [3+2] cycloadduct 4 . The computed free energies are in agreement with the experimental outcomes.
Tandem Reactions of 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles with Allylamines
2011
A reaction of 3-chloro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles with allylamine and diallylamine has been investigated. 3,3a,4,5-Tetrahydroisoxazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines are produced through a tandem ANRORC/[3 + 2]cycloaddition pathway consisting of the addition of allylamine to the 1,2,4-oxadiazole, followed by ring opening, nitrone formation, and finally cycloaddition. 3-N-Allylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles were also obtained as minor products through a classical SNAr. Conversely, a reaction with diallylamine produces 3-N,N-diallylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazole and imidazoline through tandem SNAr/aziridination and nucleophilic ring opening.
