Deoxygenative Divergent Synthesis : En Route to Quinic Acid Chirons
2020
The installation of vicinal mesylate and silyl ether groups in a quinic acid derivative generates a system prone for stereoselective borane-catalyzed hydrosilylation through a siloxonium intermediate. The diversification of the reaction conditions allowed the construction of different defunctionalized fragments foreseen as useful synthetic fragments. The selectivity of the hydrosilylation was rationalized on the basis of deuteration experiments and computational studies. peerReviewed
Stereoselective Hydrosilylation of Enals and Enones Catalysed by Palladium Nanoparticles
2011
A highly versatile and efficient hydrosilylation method by palladium nanoparticle catalysis allows the direct and chemoselective synthesis of 1) enolsilanes of high isomeric purity, 2) saturated aldehydes or ketones, or 3) the corresponding saturated acetals from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes or ketones. The choice of the product is determined by simply switching the solvent from THF to mixtures of THF/water or THF/alcohol.
A Selective Synthesis of Fluorinated Cispentacin Derivatives
2014
A facile selective method has been developed for the synthesis of new fluorine-containing cispentacin stereoisomers. Mono- and difluorinated cispentacin derivatives were synthetized from a bicyclic β-lactam in five or six steps involving a regio- and stereoselective hydroxylation through iodooxazoline formation, followed by deoxygenation by fluorination. Starting from an enantiomerically pure bicyclic β-lactam obtained by enzymatic resolution of the racemic compound, an enantiodivergent procedure allowed the preparation of both dextro- and levorotatory difluorinated cispentacins.
Regio- and stereoselective oxyfunctionalization at C-1 and C-5 in sesquiterpene guaianolides
1998
Abstract The regio- and stereoselective functionalization at C-1 and C-5 positions in a guaiane skeleton by allylic hydroxylation are described. The stereochemistry of the resulting compounds are identical to those of the majority of natural 1- and 5-hydroxy-guaianolides.
Inhibition of imidazolidinone intermediate formation in the aldol reactions catalyzed by zinc–prolinamide complexes
2011
Abstract The use of zinc salts as cocatalysts in aldol condensations catalyzed by single prolinamide (and in the extension by other more complex prolinamides) can prevent the formation of the parasitic intermediate imidazolidinone, with faster and also more stereoselective reactions than those catalyzed by the free amine. This new finding, together with this ion’s already known properties, make zinc salts highly suitable additives for aldol reactions catalyzed for prolinamide derivatives.
Chemoselective heterogeneous iridium catalyzed hydrogenation of cinnamalaniline
2020
International audience; Selective hydrogenation of unsaturated imines over heterogeneous catalysts is an ecologically feasible and effective way to produce commercially valuable saturated imines and unsaturated amines under mild conditions, avoiding the utilization of toxic halides. The liquid-phase hydrogenation of a model imine, cinnamalaniline, over Ir, Ru, Pd and Au catalysts was studied in polar protic (methanol, 2-propanol), polar aprotic (methyl tert-butyl ether) and non-polar aprotic (toluene) solvents at 40-80°C under atmospheric hydrogen pressure. Different metal oxides (Al 2 O 3 , ZrO 2 , SiO 2) and carbon composites based on carbon nitrides synthesized by pyrolysis of ethylenedi…
Convenient synthesis of pyrrolo[3,4-g]indazole
2013
Abstract The synthesis of a novel class of tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4-g]indazoles is reported, by annelation of the pyrazole ring on the isoindole moiety by means of 5-hydroxymethylene tetrahydroisoindole-4-ones key intermediates, with good regioselectivity. Dihydroderivatives were also obtained by oxidation with DDQ of the corresponding tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4-g]indazoles. The growth inhibitory effect was evaluated at the National Cancer Institute of Bethesda and some derivatives showed modest activity.
Design and synthesis of 1-aryl-5-anilinoindazoles as c-Jun N-terminal kinase inhibitors.
2012
Starting from pyrazole HTS hit (1), a series of 1-aryl-1H-indazoles have been synthesized as JNK3 inhibitors with moderate selectivity against JNK1. SAR studies led to the synthesis of 5r as double digital nanomolar JNK3 inhibitor with good in vivo exposure.
Hydroxy-Directed Enantioselective Hydroxyalkylation in the Carbocyclic Ring of Indoles
2017
[EN] A Cinchona-derived squaramide catalyzes the reaction between hydroxyindoles and isatins leading to enantioenriched indoles substituted in the carbocyclic ring. The reaction proceeds efficiently with differently substituted isatins, yielding the desired products with excellent regioselectivity, good yields, and high enantiocontroi. Moreover, every position of the carbocyclic ring of the indole can be functionalized by using the appropriate starting hydroxyindole. The OH group was removed smoothly upon hydrogenolysis of the corresponding triflate.
Straight Access to Indoles from Anilines and Ethylene Glycol by Heterogeneous Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Condensation.
2017
The development of original strategies for the preparation of indole derivatives is a major goal in drug design. Herein, we report the first straight access to indoles from anilines and ethylene glycol by heterogeneous catalysis, based on an acceptorless dehydrogenative condensation, under noninert conditions. In order to achieve high selectivity, a combination of Pt/Al2O3 and ZnO have been found to slowly dehydrogenate ethylene glycol generating, after condensation with the amine and tautomeric equilibrium, the corresponding pyrrole-ring unsubstituted indoles.
