On the regioselectivity of the Friedländer reaction leading to huprines: stereospecific acid-promoted isomerization of syn-huprines to their anti-reg…
2001
Abstract Racemic 12-amino-6,7,8,11-tetrahydro-7,11-methanocycloocta[ b ]quinoline derivatives ( syn -huprines) substituted at the 9-position with a methyl or ethyl group, and both enantioenriched forms of the 9-ethyl derivative, obtained by chiral MPLC resolution of the racemic mixture, were readily converted to the corresponding anti -isomers (huprines) by stereospecific acid-promoted (AlCl 3 or triflic acid) isomerization of the endocyclic CC double bond from the 9(10)- to the 8(9)-position. These results support the hypothesis that the hitherto unseen syn -huprines are also formed under the usual acidic Friedlander reaction conditions used to prepare the known huprines, but rearrange in…
5-Substituted 4,5-Dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-ones from the Unprecedented Reaction between α-N-Protected Amino Acid Hydrazides and NaBH4
2006
α-N-Protected amino acid hydrazides (1) readily reacted with NaBH4 to afford 5-substituted 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-one derivatives 2 in good yields. Unfortunately, the reaction caused partial racemization at the α-amino acidic carbon atom of the starting hydrazide. A mechanism, supported by experimental evidence, has been proposed in an attempt to explain this to date unprecedented reaction. The structure of compounds 2 was confirmed by X-ray structural analysis. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-1-(4-pyridyl)cyclopentan-1-ol
2007
The crystal structure of the title compound, C16H16FNO, was determined as part of a study of the biological activity of pyridine-substituted cyclopentene derivatives as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. The 4-fluorophenyl and 4-pyridyl rings are trans positioned with respect to each other. The compound exists as a racemic mixture. The synthesis was achieved via direct interaction between the reactive complex Grignard reagent PyMgCl·LiCl and the enolizable ketone 4-fluorophenylcyclopentanone with the assistance of the neodymium salt catalyst NdCl3·2LiCl. The crystal packing is characterized by zigzag chains of molecules, which are connected by O—H⋯N hydrogen bon…
Stereoselective synthesis and properties of 1,3-bis(dicyanomethylidene)indane-5-carboxylic acid acceptor fragment containing nonlinear optical chromo…
2016
A series of organic push–pull type chromophores using indane-1,3-dione 5-carboxylic acid (IDCA) and novel 1,3-bis(dicyanomethylidene)indane 5-carboxylic acid (CICA) electron acceptor fragments have been synthesized and characterized. NMR and X-ray analysis revealed that condensation reactions with the CICA fragment were stereoselective and yielded benzylidenes and azomethines with E double bond configurations. Due to the non-planar geometry these compounds are chiral and were acquired as a racemic mixture. The subsequent functionalization of the carboxylic acid group with 5,5,5-triphenylpentan-1-ol yielded solution-processable glass forming materials (6, 8, 10, 13) with glass transition tem…
Cooperative supramolecular polymerization and amplification of chirality in C3-symmetrical OPE-based trisamides.
2011
Sergeants-and-soldiers experiments demonstrate the amplification of chirality that transforms the racemic mixture of helical columns formed from OPE-based trisamides into enantiomerically enriched helical structures (see scheme).The cooperative supramolecular polymerization of the trisamides is investigated by theoretical calculations and temperature-dependent UV/Vis and CD experiments.

Palladium-catalyzed reaction of boronic acids with chiral and racemic alpha-bromo sulfoxides.
2004
Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of racemic alpha-bromo sulfoxides with boronic acids are carried out in either aqueous or nonaqueous medium with formation of a new C sp(3)-C sp(2) bond. The arylation of chiral alpha-bromo sulfoxides occurs without racemization. The cross-coupling reaction is general and gives high yields with arylboronic acids substituted with either donor or acceptor groups but gives poor results with heteroarylboronic acids. The best yields are obtained using degassed solvents and CsF instead of aqueous base. The use of aqueous base and the presence of oxygen favor the homocoupling side reaction.
Stereoselective synthesis of unsaturated and functionalized L-NHBoc amino acids, using Wittig reaction under mild phase-transfer conditions.
2012
The stereoselective synthesis of a new amino acid phosphonium salt was described by quaternization of melting triphenylphosphine with the γ-iodo NHBoc-amino ester, derived from L-aspartic acid. The deprotection of the carboxylic acid function to afford the phosphonium salt with a free carboxylic acid group was achieved by a palladium-catalyzed desallylation reaction. This phosphonium salt was used in the Wittig reaction with aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes and trifluoroacetophenone, under solid-liquid phase-transfer conditions in chlorobenzene and in the presence of K(3)PO(4) as weak base, to afford the corresponding unsaturated amino acids without racemization. Thus, the reaction with subs…
Fluorous (Trimethylsilyl)ethanol: A New Reagent for Carboxylic Acid Tagging and Protection in Peptide Synthesis
2006
Starting with a fluorous analogue of 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethanol, we have designed an easy method for preparing a new fluorous tag ((F)TMSE) for the protection of carboxylic acids. Because mild conditions are employed in the tag cleavage (TBAF in the presence of 4 A molecular sieves, which prevent racemization), this tag can be advantageously used in the synthesis of peptides and modified peptides, as we have demonstrated with several examples, including the fluorous synthesis of short alpha- and beta-peptides as well as of modified fluorinated retropeptides.
Pyrrolide-imine benzyl complexes of zirconium and hafnium: synthesis, structures, and efficient ethylene polymerization catalysis
2004
Abstract A series of pyrrolyl-imines HL1–6 was prepared by the condensation of pyrrole-2-carboxyaldehyde with different amines. The reaction of 2 equiv of pyrrolyl-imine with tetrabenzyl complexes of hafnium and zirconium M(CH2Ph)4 (M=Hf or Zr) gave dibenzyl complexes (L3–6)2M(CH2Ph)2, which were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and crystal structure analysis. NMR spectra of the complexes with secondary alkyl substituents at the imine nitrogen (isopropyl: 3a, 4-tert-butylcyclohexyl: 4a and 4b) suggest that rapid racemization between Δ and Λ configurations occurs in solution on the NMR time scale. The complexes with pyrrolide-imine ligands with a tertiary alkyl group such as tert-butyl (5a …
rac-(3E,3aR,6aR)-3-(Hydroxymethylene)-3,3a,6,6a-tetrahydro-2H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-one
2007
The crystal structure of the title compound, C8H8O3, was determined in the course of our studies of the synthesis of cyclopenta[1,2-b]furan-4-one derivatives. The title compound has two chiral C atoms and was obtained as a racemic mixture. It was found to possess a vinylogous acid group with an E configuration at the double bond. The compound exists in the hydroxymethylene and not in the tautomeric carbaldehyde form. The asymmetric unit consists of two molecules.
