Nucleophilic benzoylation using a mandelic acid dioxolanone as a synthetic equivalent of the benzoyl carbanion. Oxidative decarboxylation of α-hydrox…
2004
The synthesis of alkyl aryl ketones using a mandelic acid dioxolanone as a synthetic equivalent (Umpolung) of the benzoyl carbanion is reported. The methodology involves alkylation of the mandelic acid dioxolanone, hydrolysis of the dioxolanone moiety in the alkylated products and oxidative decarboxylation of the resulting alpha-hydroxyacids. The last step is carried out in a catalytic aerobic way using a Co (III) complex in the presence of pivalaldehyde under very mild conditions.
The Allyl Ester as Carboxy-Protecting Group in the Stereoselective Construction of Neuraminic-Acid Glycosides
1988
The application of the allyl-ester moiety as protecting principle for the carboxy group of N-acetylneuraminic acid is described. Peracetylated allyl neuraminate 2 is synthesized by reacting the caesium salt of the acid 1 with allyl bromide. Treatment of 2 with HCl in AcCl or with HF/pyridine gives the corresponding 2-chloro or 2-fluoro derivatives 3 and 4, respectively (Scheme 1). In the presence of Ag2CO3, the 2-chloro carbohydrate 3 reacts with di-O-isopropylidene-protected galactose 5 to give the 2–6 linked disaccharide with the α-D-anomer 6a predominating (α-D/β-D = 6:1; Scheme 2). Upon activation of the 2-fluoro derivative 4 with BF3 · Et2O, the β-D-anomer 6b is formed preferentially (…
Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Fluorinated Ethanolamines
2011
The preparation of novel fluorinated allylamines and their use as key fragments for the stereoselective synthesis of hydroxyethyl secondary amine (HEA)-type peptidomimetics is described. Our strategy employs chiral sulfinyl imines as synthesis intermediates, by treatment of hemiaminal precursors with two equivalents of vinylmagnesium bromide. The subsequent oxidation of the allylic amines to the corresponding epoxides was achieved by treatment with methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane. Finally, epoxide ring opening with a range of nitrogen nucleophiles provided a library of HEA-derived peptidomimetics with a phenyldifluoromethylene moiety. The biological evaluation of these derivatives revealed…
Design of P-Chirogenic Aminophosphine-Phosphinite Ligands at Both Phosphorus Centers: Origin of Enantioselectivities in Pd-Catalyzed Allylic Reaction…
2020
International audience; We have recently patented an unprecedented stereospecific N→O phosphinyl migration process which transforms P-chirogenic aminophosphines into phosphinites. A fine design of aminophosphine phosphinite ligands (AMPP*) derived from ephedrine and bearing a P-chirogenic center either at the aminophosphine or phosphinite moiety, was performed. The synthesis of AMPP* ligands with P-chirogenic aminophosphine moiety was based on the well-established stereospecific reaction of oxazaphospholidine-borane with organolithium reagents, followed by trapping with a chlorophosphine and borane decomplexation. Concurrently, the preparation of AMPP* ligands with P-chirogenic phosphinite …
P-Chirogenic Phosphines Supported by Calix[4]arene: New Insight into Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylic Substitution
2013
The first P-chirogenic mono- and diphosphine ligands supported on the upper rim of a calix[4]arene moiety were synthesized using the ephedrine methodology. The lithiated calix[4]arene mono- and dianions both react with the oxazaphospholidine–borane, prepared from ephedrine, to afford regio- and stereoselectively the corresponding calix[4]arenyl aminophosphine–boranes, by cleavage of the heterocyclic ring at the P–O bond position. Subsequent reactions with HCl and then organolithium reagent and finally decomplexation with DABCO lead to the corresponding calix[4]arenyl mono- or diphosphines. Both enantiomers of the calix[4]arenyl phosphines were obtained either by using (+)- or (−)-ephedrine …
Amino-phosphanes in Rh(I)-catalyzed hydroformylation: new mechanistic insights using D2O as deuterium-labeling agent
2005
International audience; In previous work, we have demonstrated that the dangling amino group in amino-phosphane ligands increases the rate of Rh-catalyzed styrene hydroformylation as a function of the amino group basicity and of the distance between the P and N functions. We now report additional stereochemical and mechanistic insights resulting from new catalytic experiments performed with Rh-α-P,N catalytic systems in the presence of D2O. In addition to the expected D0 product, the formation of the β-D1 aldehyde, PhCH(CH2D)CHO was observed in all cases by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, indicating that H/D exchange occurs for the rhodium-hydride complex. Minor amounts of a β-D2 product, PhCH…
ChemInform Abstract: Photoinduced Molecular Rearrangements. The Photochemistry of Some 1,2, 4-Oxadiazoles in the Presence of Nitrogen Nucleophiles. F…
2010
The photochemistry of some 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles in the presence of nitrogen nucleophiles [external, such as added amines or hydrazines, or internal, such as an o-aminophenyl moiety at C(3) of the oxadiazole ring] has been investigated. In the irradiation of 5-amino-(or 5-N-substituted amino) 3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles in the presence of aliphatic primary amines (or ammonia), photolytic species arising from heterolytic cleavage of the ring O−N bond capture the nucleophilic reagent to give open-chain intermediates, which develop into 1,2,4-triazolin-5-ones. Similarly, irradiations of 3,5-diphenyl-, 3-methoxy-5-phenyl-, and 5-methyl-3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles gave 1,2,4-triazole…
Solution processable piperazine and triphenyl moiety containing non-symmetric bis-styryl-DWK type molecular glasses with light-emitting and amplified…
2018
A series of 2,6-bis-styryl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene fragment containing glassy organic compounds with chemically stable bonding of amorphous phase promoting bulky triphenyl moieties through piperazine structural fragment (DWK-T dyes) in a form of 2-(5,5,5-triphenylpentyl)piperazin-1-yl)styryl)-substituent have been synthesized and investigated as the potential gain medium component for organic solid state laser applications. Physical properties of the dyes vary and are mostly depending from the other styryl-substituent attached to the 4H-pyran-4-ylidene backbone fragment in 6-position. Thermal stability of synthesized dyes is above 312°C with the glass transitions from 97°C to 109°C. Obtained nea…
Field desorption mass spectrometric characterization of thiol conjugates related to the oxidative metabolism of the anticancer drug 4′-(9-acridinylam…
1983
Conjugation products with glutathione (GSH) and other endogenous thiol derivatives related to the oxidative metabolism of the anticancer drug, 4′-(9-acridinlyamino) methanesulfon-m-anisidide (m-AMSA) were synthesized and characterized by field desorption mass spectrometry. The primary microsomal oxidation product of m-AMSA, m-AQDI, was prepared by MnO2 oxidation of the parent drug and reacted with equimolar GSH, cysteine, N-acetylcysteine and N-acetylcysteine methyl ester to form m-AMSA-(5′)-thiol conjugates linkedat the aniline ring, as major products. Field desorption mass spectra of the conjugates provided abundant [MH]plus; ions, and characteristic fragment ions by cleavage at the thioe…
Ring splitting of azetidin-2-ones via radical anions
2012
The radical anions of azetidin-2-ones, generated by UV-irradiation in the presence of triethylamine, undergo ring-splitting via N-C4 or C3-C4 bond breaking, leading to open-chain amides. This reactivity diverges from that found for the neutral excited states, which is characterised by alpha-cleavage. The preference for beta-cleavage is supported by DFT theoretical calculations on the energy barriers associated with the involved transition states. Thus, injection of one electron into the azetidin-2-one moiety constitutes a complementary activation strategy which may be exploited to produce new chemistry.
