Understanding the cooperative NHC/LA catalysis for stereoselective annulation reactions with homoenolates. A DFT study.
2011
The role of Ti(Oi-Pr)(4) Lewis acid (LA) in the cooperative N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)/LA catalyzed addition of enals to enones to yield cis-cyclopentenes has been investigated using DFT methods at the B3LYP/6-31G** computational level. Ti(IV) effectively catalyzes the reaction by formation of a complex with cinnamaldehyde 1, which favors the nucleophilic attack of NHC 5 on 1, and the subsequent proton abstraction to yield the extended Ti(IV)-Breslow intermediate 21. The nature of the metal involved in the LA catalyst plays a relevant role due to the more basic character of NHCs than aldehydes. Thus, strong LAs, such as Zn(OTf)(2), prevent the catalytic behavior of NHCs to form a very sta…
Synthesis and conformational analysis of tetrahydroisoquinoline- and piperidine-fused 1,3,4,2-oxadiazaphosphinanes, new ring systems
2006
Abstract Through cyclization of tetrahydroisoquinoline and piperidine 1,2-hydrazino alcohols with phenylphosphonic dichloride and phenyl dichlorophosphate, P-epimeric diastereomers of 1,6,7,11b-tetrahydro-4H-1,3,4,2-oxadiazaphosphino[5,4-a]isoquinoline-3-oxides ( 13 and 14 ), 1,6,11,11a-tetrahydro-4H-1,3,4,2-oxadiazaphosphino[4,5-b]isoquinoline-3-oxides ( 15 and 16 ) and 1,6,7,8,9,9a-hexahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-d][1,3,4,2]oxadiazaphosphinane-3-oxides ( 17 and 18 ), the first representatives of these ring systems, were prepared. NMR and X-ray diffraction studies revealed that, independently of the P-substituent and the relative configuration of the phosphorus atom, 13 , 14 , 17 and 18 could be c…
Switchable Access to Different Spirocyclopentane Oxindoles by N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Reactions of Isatin-Derived Enals and N-Sulfonyl Ketim…
2017
A novel NHC-catalyzed annulation protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of biologically important β-lactam fused spirocyclopentane oxindoles with four contiguous stereocenters, including two quaternary carbon centers, was developed. Alternatively, spirocyclopentane oxindoles containing an enaminone moiety can be achieved using the same starting materials, isatin-derived enals, and N-sulfonyl ketimines, in the presence of a slightly different NHC catalytic system. This switchable annulation strategy enables the selective assembly of both heterocyclic scaffolds with good yields and excellent enantioselectivities for a broad range of substrates.
Synthesis of Piperidines and Dehydropiperidines
2017
Abstract The present review focuses on strategies for the construction of piperidines and dehydropiperidines, which have appeared in the literature since 2003/2004 through mid-2016. Synthetic methods involving the construction of the six-membered ring from essentially acyclic starting materials in intra- or intermolecular will be highlighted and discussed. In contrast, methods using only the decoration or modification of previously generated pyridines or piperidines will not be part of this review. The published syntheses will be categorized based on the topology of the bond forming events generating the piperidine core.
Asymmetric Synthesis of Spiro-oxindole-ε-lactones through N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalysis
2018
An unprecedented N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed annulation of isatin-derived enals and o-hydroxyphenyl-substituted p-quinone methides as bifunctional reagents has been discovered. The new protocol involves a 1,6-addition of the homoenolate equivalent intermediates to the hydroxy donor-1,6-Michael acceptors and leads to spirocyclic oxindole-ε-lactones in high yields and very good stereoselectivities.
Tin(IV) catalyzed D-galacturonic acid anomerization
2008
A comparative kinetic study of anomerization between the four main forms (alpha/beta-pyranosides and alpha/beta-furanosides) of D-galacturonic acid (GalAH(2), 1) and tin(IV) complexed D-galacturonate ([Sn(CH(3))(2)(GalA)(H(2)O)(2)], 2) in D(2)O, is reported. Important differences are shown by pD vs. mutarotation rate profiles of 1 and 2. Coordination, in fact, causes: i) a spectacular increase of the rate due to kinetic template assistance of the carboxylic tail holding the metal in close proximity to the reactive centre and ii) a change in the dependence of the rate on the pD. Entropic and enthalpic factors contribute to the huge activation energy decrease in 2. Anomerization rates of the …
Synthesis, characterization and the first crystal structure of the Zn(II) complex of 4,6-O-ethylidine-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-β-D-glucopyranosylamine
2001
4,6-O-Ethylidine-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-β-D-glucopyranosylamine (H3L1) and N-(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene-4,6-O-ethylidine-β-D-glucopyranosylamine (H3L2) molecules possessing a–C-1–N=C(H)–moiety for metal-ion binding were synthesized by condensing the 4,6–O–ethylidene–β–D–glucopyranosylamine with salicylaldehyde or 5–bromosalicylaldehyde. Complexes of these ligands with Zn(II) were isolated and characterized using elemental analysis, FTIR, UV–Vis absorption, NMR spectroscopic and FAB mass spectrometric techniques. The structure of the Zn(II) complex derived from H3L1 was established for the first time by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The anomeric nature of the saccharide moie…
Synthesis, characterization and X-ray structure of glycosyl-1,2-isoxazoles and glycosyl-1,2-isoxazolines prepared via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition
2013
Abstract A convenient preparative method of a series of glycosyl-1,2-isoxazoles ( 6–11 ) and glycosyl-1,2-isoxazolines ( 15–20 ) by a simple and efficient 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a series of aryl nitrile oxide, generated in situ from aryl oximes ( 4–5 ), with a variety of O -propargyl glycosyles ( 1 – 3 ) or O -allyl glycosyles ( 12–14 ) respectively, is reported. The carbohydrate-containing 1,2-isoxazoles and 1,2-isoxazolines compounds were isolated in excellent yields (81–91%) and they were fully characterized by 1 H, 13 C NMR and mass spectrometry. The relative stereochemistry of the glycosyl-1,2-isoxazole 10 was confirmed by single crystal X-ray analysis. The molecular structure of…
Interaction of metal ions with D-glucobenzothiazoline: isolation and characterization of the resultant products
2002
Six different metal-ion complexes of D-glucobenzothiazoline were synthesized and characterized by analytical and spectral techniques. Formation of different types of species (ML and ML2) were observed with Cu2+, Ag+, Cd2+, Hg2+, and Zn2+ ions. Existence of an anomeric mixture in the case of the Cu2+ complex is identified from the EPR spectra, and the results were further supported by the simulated spectra. The structures were proposed based on different studies.
Biomimetic diels–alder cyclizations for the construction of the brevianamide, paraherquamide, sclerotamide, asperparaline and VM55599 ring systems
1998
Abstract A potentially bio-mimetic Diels–Alder cyclization to construct the bicyclo[2.2.2] ring system common to the paraherquamides, marcfortines, sclerotamides, brevianamides, VM55599, and asperparaline is reported. Epi-deoxybrevianamide E (22) is converted into the corresponding lactim ether (23) and then oxidized with DDQ to provide an azadiene (24) which is tautomerized in the presence of base to azadiene 25 which, spontaneously cyclizes to give a 2:1 mixture of cycloadducts 26 and 27. These cycloadducts are each in turn, converted into d , l -C-19-epi-brevianamide A (20) and d , l -brevianamide B (6). The stereochemical implications of the [4+2] cycloaddition is discussed in the conte…
