Comparative study using different infrared zones of the solventless activation of organic reactions

In this work, the results of a study comparing the use of irradiation from different regions of the infrared spectrum for the promotion of several organic reactions, are presented and discussed. This use of eco-conditions provides a green approach to chemical synthesis. A set of ten different organic reactions were evaluated, including the Knoevenagel, Hantzsch, Biginelli and Meldrum reactions. It is important to highlight the use of a commercial device that produces infrared irradiation in the near infrared region and its distribution by convection providing heating uniformity, significantly reducing reaction times, achieving good yields and proceeding in the absence of solvent. It is also worth noting that a variety of different reactions may be performed at the same time. Finally, the products obtained were identified using TLC, together with corresponding MS-data, complementarily in comparison of NMR (1)H and (13)C data with literature information.     

Urease: A highly biocompatible catalyst for switchable Biginelli reaction and synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines from the in situ formed ammonia

Urease is a superior biocompatible catalyst for switching from the Biginelli reaction to urea-based synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines in water, where 100% switching occurs at 0.02 g/mL of enzyme. Hantzsch reaction with ammonium acetate (NH₄OAc) is inefficiently catalyzed by urease (70%, 4 h), and heavy metal ions inhibit the urease-catalyzed reactions with urea or NH₄OAc. Promotion of the urea-based Hantzsch reaction by urease and its inhibition with Hg^2 + supports specificity of urease for in situ generation of ammonia, whereas the role of urease in further transformations is not so specific. The features of this enzymatic method are reusability, mild reaction conditions, biocompatibility, generality, and high yield of products.

Recent advances in the Biginelli dihydropyrimidine synthesis. New tricks from an old dog

In 1893, P. Biginelli reported the synthesis of functionalized 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones (DHPMs) via three-component condensation reaction of an aromatic aldehyde, urea, and ethyl acetoacetate. In the past decade, this long-neglected multicomponent reaction has experienced a remarkable revival, mainly due to the interesting pharmacological properties associated with this dihydropyrimidine scaffold. In this Account, we highlight recent developments in the Biginelli reaction in areas such as solid-phase synthesis, combinatorial chemistry, and natural product synthesis.

Greener,solvent free three component Biginelli reaction over different recyclable solid acid catalysts

Solid acids comprising 12-tungstophosphoric acid and 12-tungstosilicic acid anchored on to metal oxide (ZrO₂), zeolites (Hβ and HZSM-5), and mesoporous material (MCM-41) were synthesized, characterized and used as the catalysts. A solvent free green route to carry out the Biginelli cyclocondensation reaction is described over synthesized catalysts. The method provides an efficient and much improved protocol of Biginelli reaction in terms of solvent free conditions, high yields up to 98 %, very short reaction time of 15 min, and simple work-up procedure. Based on the above study a best catalyst among all is proposed and is recycled up to four times without any significant change in % yields of the product. Another important feature of this method is survival of a variety of functional groups under the reaction conditions.     

Synthesis of Dihydropyrimidinones Using Large Pore Zeolites

Abstract  

A series of dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (DHPM) belongs to one of the important class of therapeutic and pharmacological active compound, were synthesized through the multicomponent reactions (MCRs) of aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and urea, followed by the heterogeneous catalyzed Biginelli reaction. In the present endeavour, medium (ZSM-5) and large pore zeolites (Y, BEA and MOR) as well as dealuminated zeolites BEA, were studied as catalysts. An excellent activity for DHPMs synthesis is achieved by optimizing accessibility of the reactants to the active sites and the surface polarity of zeolite catalysts. Moreover, the mechanism of Biginelli reaction was studied by means of GAUSSVIEW energy calculations of adsorbed acylimine intermediate on zeolite by using the density functional method (DFT).     

Brønsted-acid-catalyzed asymmetric multicomponent reactions for the facile synthesis of highly enantioenriched structurally diverse nitrogenous heterocycles

Optically pure nitrogenous compounds, and especially nitrogen-containing heterocycles, have drawn intense research attention because of their frequent isolation as natural products. These compounds have wide-ranging biological and pharmaceutical activities, offering potential as new drug candidates. Among the various synthetic approaches to nitrogenous heterocycles, the use of asymmetric multicomponent reactions (MCRs) catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids has recently emerged as a particularly robust tool. This method combines the prominent merits of MCRs with organocatalysis, thus affording enantio-enriched nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds with excellent enantioselectivity, atom economy, bond-forming efficiency, structural diversity, and complexity. In this Account, we discuss a variety of asymmetric MCRs catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids that lead to the production of structurally diverse nitrogenous heterocycles. In MCRs, three or more reagents are combined simultaneously to produce a single product containing structural contributions from all the components. These one-pot processes are especially useful in the construction of heterocyclic cores: they can provide a high degree of both complexity and diversity for a targeted set of scaffolds while minimizing the number of synthetic operations. Unfortunately, enantioselective MCRs have thus far been relatively underdeveloped. Particularly lacking are reactions that proceed through imine intermediates, which are formed from the condensation of carbonyls and amines. The concomitant generation of water in the condensation reaction can deactivate some Lewis acid catalysts, resulting in premature termination of the reaction. Thus, chiral catalysts typically must be compatible with water for MCRs to generate nitrogenous compounds. Recently, organocatalytic MCRs have proven valuable in this respect. Br?nsted acids, an important class of organocatalysts, are highly compatible with water and thereby offer great potential as chiral catalysts for multicomponent protocols that unavoidably release water molecules during the course of the reaction. We present a detailed investigation of several MCRs catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids, including Biginelli and Biginelli-like reactions; 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions; aza Diels-Alder reactions; and some other cyclization reactions. These approaches have enabled the facile preparation of 3,4-dihydropyrimidinones, pyrrolidines, piperidines, and dihydropyridines with high optical purity. The synthetic applications of these new protocols are also discussed, together with theoretical studies of the reaction transition states that address the regio- and stereochemistry. In addition, we briefly illustrate the application of a recently developed strategy that involves relay catalysis by a binary system consisting of a chiral phosphoric acid and a metal complex. This technique has provided access to new reactions that generate structurally diverse and complex heterocycles. Enantioselective organocatalytic MCRs remain a challenge, but we illustrate success on several fronts with chiral phosphoric acids as the primary catalysts. Further progress will undoubtedly provide even better access to the chiral nitrogen-containing heterocycles that are not only prevalent as natural products but also serve as key chiral building blocks in organic synthesis.

Model Reactions Involving Ester Functional Groups during Thermo-Oxidative Degradation of Biodiesel

Biodiesel is a renewable fuel used in diesel engines that is typically blended with diesel fuel. However, biodiesel is susceptible to oxidation, which has the potential to produce higher molecular weight materials that may adversely impact vehicle fuel-system performance. To investigate the chemical reactions potentially important in biodiesel oxidation, four different types of chemical reactions involving esters were studied: (1) ester formation (reactions of acids with alcohols), (2) alcoholysis (reactions of alcohols with esters), (3) acidolysis (reaction of acids with esters), and (4) ester exchange (reactions between two esters). Experiments with representative model compounds were used to evaluate these reactions at 90 °C with aeration; conditions previously used to simulate thermo-oxidative degradation during biodiesel aging. Reactions were monitored using gas chromatography, fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and total acid number (TAN). Evidence is presented suggesting that alcoholysis and ester formation (Reactions 1 and 2), catalyzed by carboxylic acids, are important reactions of esters that could lead to larger molecules. Acidolysis (Reaction 3) proceeded at a comparatively slow rate and ester exchange reaction products (Reaction 4) were not detected under these aging conditions.

A study of the temperature effect on Hantzsch reaction selectivity using Mn and Ce oxides under solvent-free conditions

In this communication, four materials (CeO₂, CeO₂(Cu), MnO_x, and MnO_x(Cu)) were prepared, characterized and tested as catalysts, in solvent-free conditions, for the multicomponent Hantzsch reactions to obtain alternatively the 1,4-dihydropyridine or 2-phenylpyridine depending on the reaction conditions. 1,4-Dihydropyridine 4 was the main product formed at 80 °C (76%), and 2-phenylpyridine 7 was the main product at 40 °C (91%), in oxidant-free conditions, using CeO₂ catalyst. It is the first report that shows that, not only the temperature but also the nature of the catalyst may change the product selectivity in Hantzsch reactions.     

Development of Multivalent Conjugates with a Single Non-Canonical Amino Acid

Proteins represent powerful biomacromolecules due to their unique functionality and broad utility both in the cell and in non-biological applications. The genetic encoding of non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) facilitates functional diversification of these already powerful proteins. Specifically, ncAAs have been demonstrated to provide unique functional handles to bioorthogonally introduce novel functionality via conjugation reactions. Herein we examine the ability of a single ncAA to serve as a handle to generate multivalent bioconjugates to introduce two or more additional components to a protein, yielding a multivalent conjugate. To accomplish this aim, p-bromopropargyloxyphenyalanine (pBrPrF) was genetically encoded into both superfolder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP) and ubiquitin model proteins to serve as a conjugation handle. A sequential bioconjugation sequence involving a copper-assisted cycloaddition reaction coupled with a subsequent Sonogashira cross-coupling was then optimized. The linkage of two additional molecules to the model protein via these reactions yielded the desired multivalent bioconjugate. This domino approach using a single ncAA has a plethora of applications in both therapeutics and diagnostics as multiple unique moieties can be introduced into proteins in a highly controlled fashion.
