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.
Understanding the regio- and chemoselective polar [3+2] cycloaddition of the Padwa carbonyl ylides with α-methylene ketones. A DFT study
2009
The regio- and chemoselective polar [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) of the Padwa carbonyl ylide (CY) with α-methylene ketone (αMK) to yield the oxa-bridged spirocycloadduct has been studied using the DFT method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) computational level. Six reactive channels associated to the stereo-, regio-, and chemoselective approach modes of the CY to the CC and CO reactive sites of the αMK have been analyzed. DFT calculations for this cycloaddition are in complete agreement with the experimental outcome, explaining the reactivity and selectivity of the formation of the [3+2] cycloadduct. Analysis of the global and local electrophilicity and nucleophilicity indices allows an explanation abou…
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…
ChemInform Abstract: Novel Strategy for the Synthesis of Fluorinated β-Amino Acid Derivatives from Δ2-Oxazolines.
2010
Abstract Racemic and chiral non-racemic β-fluoroalkyl-β-amino acid derivatives have been prepared in two steps starting from 2-alkyl-Δ2-oxazolines and fluorinated imidoyl chlorides. Subsequent chemoselective reduction of the C-masked β-enamino acid derivatives initially formed provided the target β-amino acids. The process takes place with total chemoselectivity, high yields and satisfactory diastereoselectivity.

Exploring the Chemoselectivity towards Cysteine Arylation by Cyclometallated Au III Compounds: New Mechanistic Insights
2020
To gain more insight into the factors controlling the efficient cysteine arylation by cyclometalated Au(III) complexes, the reaction between selected gold compounds and different peptides was investigated by high‐resolution liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR‐LC‐ESI‐MS). The deducted mechanisms of C–S cross‐coupling, also supported by density functional theory (DFT) and quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) calculations, evidenced the key role of secondary peptidic gold binding sites in favouring the process of reductive elimination.
Mixed Dialkylaluminum Chlorides and Mixed Trimethylorganoaluminates in Chemoselective 1,4 Addition Reactions to Alkylidene Malonic Acid Diethyl Ester
2000
Mixed alkyl-methyl- and aryl-methylorganoaluminum chlorides 6 were formed by reaction of methylaluminum dichloride with organolithium or Grignard compounds and used for chemoselective 1,4 addition of higher alkyl, aryl, alkenyl and alkinyl groups to alkylidine malonic esters 1 and 2. As an alternative, mixed trimethylorganoaluminates 7 can also be applied for these Michael addition reactions. For conjugate addition of alkenyl groups to alkylidene malonates 1 and 2, alkenyl diisopropylalanes 10 obtained from alkynes and diisopropylaluminum hydride proved the most efficient reagents. Using these novel mixed organoaluminum compounds, β-branched malonic (carboxylic) acid derivatives 3c, 8, 9 an…
Squaric acid mediated chemoselective PEGylation of proteins: reactivity of single-step-activated α-amino poly(ethylene glycol)s.
2012
The covalent attachment of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to therapeutically active proteins (PEGylation) has become an important method to deal with the pharmacological difficulties of these polypeptides, such as short body-residence times and immunogenicity. However, the derivatives of PEG used for PEGylation lack further functional groups that would allow the addition of targeting or labeling moieties. Squaric acid diethyl ester was used for the chemoselective single-step activation of poly(ethylene glycol)s into the respective ester amides. The resultant selective protein-reactive poly(ethylene glycol)s were investigated with respect to their selectivity towards amino acid residues in bovi…
A new and expeditious strategy for the synthesis of β-amino acids from Δ2-oxazolines
2001
Abstract A new, mild two-step synthesis of racemic β-amino acids starting from 2-alkyl-Δ2-oxazolines is described. The process implies the initial formation of masked N-substituted or N-unsubstituted β-enamino acid derivatives followed by chemoselective reduction of the enamino moiety. The process takes place with high yields, total chemoselectivity and moderate diastereoselectivity.
