A Molecular Electron Density Theory Study of the Reactivity of Azomethine Imine in [3+2] Cycloaddition Reactions
2017
The electronic structure and the participation of the simplest azomethine imine (AI) in [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions have been analysed within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) using DFT calculations at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d) level. Electron localisation function (ELF) topological analysis reveals that AI has a pseudoradical structure, while the conceptual DFT reactivity indices characterise this TAC as a moderate electrophile and a good nucleophile. The non-polar 32CA reaction of AI with ethylene takes place through a one-step mechanism with low activation energy, 5.3 kcal/mol-1. A bonding evolution theory (BET) study indicates that this reaction takes place through a non-…
Synthesis of Elemane Bis-Lactones from Santonin – Synthesis of the Reported Structure ofseco-Isoerivanin Pseudo Acid and Formal Synthesis of (+)-8-De…
2000
The synthesis of the reported structure for seco-isoerivanin pseudo acid (1) and of an elemane bis-lactone 5 from santonin (4) through a common vinylic precursor 12 is described. Compound 5 is a known intermediate in a previous synthesis of the antitumor compound (+)-8-deoxyvernolepin (3). The vinyl group of 12 underwent a regio- and diastereoselective anti addition of an external electrophile and an intramolecular condensation to yield either the selenolactone 13 or the hydroxylactone 17. The lactones 13 and 17 served as key intermediates in the total synthesis of 1 and 5 respectively. A revision of the structure of seco-isoerivanin pseudo acid to the C-10 epimer is suggested on the basis …
Palladium-catalyzed heteroaryl thioethers synthesis overcoming palladium dithiolate resting states inertness: Practical road to sulfones and NH-sulfo…
2018
International audience; We provide efficient synthetic access to heteroaryl sulfones in two-steps using a simple palladium-1,1'-bis [(diphenyl)phosphanyl]ferrocene catalyst to form in high yields variously functionalized heteroaromatic thioethers. Pyridinyl-containing substrates can be subsequently selectively oxidized into sulfones and NH-sulfoximines by using very mild oxidation conditions with a high functional group tolerance. In the palladium catalyzed C-S coupling of heteroaromatic thiols, reactivity limitation is attached with electron-deficient thiols. We show that this limitation can be resolved by the successful use of 2-bromoheteroarenes in the C-S coupling. We established herein…
ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Active Principles from the Leaves of Moringa oleifera Using S-Pent-4-enyl Thioglycosides.
2010
Abstract α - l -Rhamnosides of 4-hydroxy-benzyl compounds with nitrile, carbamate, and thiocarbamate groups occurring in Moringa oleifera leaf extracts and the α - l -rhamnoside of anisaldehyde derivatives were synthesised. Electrophilic activation of S -pent-4-enyl thiorhamnosides was applied for the construction of glycosidic linkages.
First Reactions of 2,2′-Bisindolyls with Electrophilic Azo Compounds and Diethyl Mesoxalate
1992
Conformations and some electronic properties of the 2,2′-bisindolyls 6 were calculated for the prediction of probable Diels-Alder reactivity, in analogy to previous work on 2-vinylindoles. First reactions with dienophiles revealed that compounds 6 did not participate in [4 + 2]cycloadditions but rather underwent simple electrophilic substitutions at the enamine function with, above all, some heterodienophiles. Erste Reaktionen von 2,2′-Bisindolylen mit elektrophilen Azoverbindungen und Diethylmesoxalat Zur Vorhersage moglicher Diels-Alder-Reaktionen an 2,2′-Bisindolylen 6 werden Berechnungen zur Konformation und uber elektronische Eigenschaften durchgefuhrt. Die erstmals durchgefuhrten Reak…
Approaches for the introduction of fluorinated substituents into [1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines
2014
Abstract [1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines functionalization with a trifluoromethyl group has been achieved for the first time using different synthetic strategies. Furthermore, these scaffolds have been employed as starting material in the synthesis of new 2,6-disubstituted pyridines containing the trifluoromethyl group, compounds that are not available using other methodologies. A fluorine-mediated triazolopyridine dimerisation is described, improving the previously known synthetic method. Preliminary studies focused on exploring triazolopyridines reactivity with electrophilic fluorine have revealed a new approach for the obtainment of imidazopyridines.
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…
Synthesis of Densely Functionalised 5-Halogen-1,3-oxazin-2-ones byHalogen-Mediated Regioselective Cyclisation of N-Cbz-ProtectedPropargylic Amines: A…
2013
A very efficient synthesis of 5-halogen-1,3-oxazin-2-ones has been accomplished by the halocyclisation reaction of chiral nonracemic N-carbobenzyloxy (N-Cbz)-protected propargylic amines by using I-2, Br-2 and Cl-2 as electrophile sources. The nature of the halogen influences the reaction time and yield. However, in all cases the reaction is totally regioselective taking place through a 6-endo-dig process regardless of the nature of the halogen and of the substituents in the starting material. To rationalise the experimental results, theoretical studies at the B3LYP/6-311G* level have been performed.
Chemoselective reactions of N1-methyl-2-hydroxy-3-methylamino-3-phenylpropanamide with electrophiles. Synthesis of chiral hexahydro-4-pyrimidinones a…
2002
Abstract The reactivity of (2S,3S)-N1-methyl-2-hydroxy-3-methylamino-3-phenylpropanamide 1 , containing three nucleophilic centres has been studied against dihaloalkanes and aldehydes. Hexahydro-4-pyrimidinones or oxazolidines were obtained chemoselectively. Experimental results were explained by ‘ab initio’ calculations.
