Diastereoselective Michael Addition of (S)-Mandelic Acid Enolate to Nitroalkenes. Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Hydroxy-α,β-diaryl-γ-lactams.

2004

Abstract The reaction of the lithium enolate of the ( S , S )- cis -1,3-dioxolan-4-one derived from optically active ( S )-mandelic acid and pivalaldehyde with several aromatic nitroalkenes in the presence of HMPA proceeds readily to give the corresponding Michael adducts in good yields and diastereoselectivities. Reduction of the nitro group with Zn/HCl/EtOH/H 2 O with concomitant intramolecular aminolysis of the acetal moiety leads directly to enantiomerically pure α-hydroxy-α,β-diaryl-γ-lactams.

Stereoselective Synthesis of (+)-11βH,13-Dihydroestafiatin, (+)-11βH,13-Dihydroludartin, (−)-Compressanolide, and (−)-11βH,13-Dihydromicheliolide fro…

2002

Starting from 2 and 3, obtained from santonin (1), we have synthesized natural guaianolides 4-7. Chemoselective epoxidation of 2 gave (+)-11betaH,13-dihydroestafiatin (4), and epoxidation of 3 followed by regioselective elimination of the hydroxyl group afforded (+)-11betaH,13-dihydroludartin (5). Sharpless' mild regioselective ring-opening of 4 and 5 followed by hydrogenolysis yielded (-)-compressanolide (6) and (-)-11betaH,13-dihydromicheliolide (7), respectively.

Book Review: Stereoselective Synthesis. By Mihály Nógrádi

1987

A density functional theory study of the regio- and stereoselectivity of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of C-methyl substituted pyrazinium-3-olates wi…

2013

Abstract A DFT [B3LYP/6-31G(d)] study was carried out on the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (13DC) reactions of multi C-methyl substituted pyrazinium-3-olates with methyl acrylate (MA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA). Thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of the possible endo/exo stereoisomeric and 6-ester/7-ester regioisomeric pathways have been determined. The skeleton rearrangement of the 6-exo [3 + 2] cycloadducts into the [4 + 2] adducts is also considered. The electrophilic, P k + , and nucleophilic, P k - , Parr functions are used to have better understanding of the regioselectivity of these 13DC reactions. In all cases the exo pathways are more favourable compared to the endo alternatives. …

Stereoselective synthesis and determination of the cytotoxic properties of spicigerolide and three of its stereoisomers.

2003

Stereoselective syntheses of the naturally occurring, cytotoxic lactone spicigerolide and three nonnatural stereoisomers thereof are described. The commercially available sugar l-rhamnose was in all cases the chiral starting material. Key steps in each of these syntheses were asymmetric Brown allylations and ring-closing metatheses. The cytotoxic activities of the four lactones against a range of tumoral lines were then determined.

Control of N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Reactions of Enals: Asymmetric Synthesis of Oxindole-γ-Amino Acid Derivatives.

2017

A strategy to control the switch between a non‐cycloaddition reaction and a cycloaddition reaction of enals, using N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyisis, has been developed. The new scalable protocol leads to γ‐amino‐acid esters bearing a tetrasubstituted stereocenter in good yields and high stereoselectivities by homo‐Mannich reactions of enals and isatin‐derived ketimines. By simply changing the N‐ketimine substituent to an ortho‐hydroxy phenyl group, the corresponding spirocyclic oxindolo‐γ‐lactams are obtained. peerReviewed

Binuclear Cu2+ complex mediated discrimination between L-glutamate and L-aspartate in water.

2005

L-Glutamate and L-aspartate selectivity is achieved by the action of two Cu2+ metal ions rightly disposed in a cyclophanetype macrocyclic framework; electrochemical sensing of glutamate has been achieved by adsorption of the copper complexes on graphite electrodes.

Catalytic Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Lycoperdic Acid.

2020

A concise enantio- and stereocontrolled synthesis of (+)-lycoperdic acid is presented. The stereochemical control is based on iminium-catalyzed Mukaiyama–Michael reaction and enamine-catalyzed organocatalytic α-chlorination steps. The amino group was introduced by azide displacement, affording the final stereochemistry of (+)-lycoperdic acid. Penultimate hydrogenation and hydrolysis afforded pure (+)-lycoperdic acid in seven steps from a known silyloxyfuran. peerReviewed

Immunoassays for trifloxystrobin analysis. Part I. Rational design of regioisomeric haptens and production of monoclonal antibodies

2014

Trifloxystrobin is one of the main active principles belonging to the strobilurin family of crop protection compounds. In this article, the synthesis of a battery of regioisomeric functionalized derivatives of trifloxystrobin is described. The same aliphatic linear carboxylated chain was introduced as spacer arm in all of the synthesized haptens, but it was located at different positions of the parent molecule. N,N′-Disuccinimidyl carbonate was employed for hapten activation, so the resulting N-hydroxysuccinimyl ester could be readily purified and efficiently coupled to proteins. After immunization and hybridoma generation, a collection of 20 mouse monoclonal antibodies from different immun…

endo-Functionalized molecular tubes : selective encapsulation of neutral molecules in non-polar media

2016

Four endo-functionalized molecular tubes with urea/thiourea groups in the deep cavities have been synthesized, and their binding ability to neutral molecules studied. Very high binding affinity and selectivity have been achieved, which are rationalized by invoking the shape and electrostatic complementarity and dipole alignment.
