An enantioselective aza‐Friedel–Crafts reaction of indoles with γ‐hydroxy‐γ‐lactams using a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst is reported. The approach described herein provides an efficient access to 5‐indolylpyrrolidinones in good to quantitative yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee). The results suggest that the reaction may proceed via N‐acyliminium intermediates associated with the chiral phosphoric acid anion. 相似文献
The oxidative carbonylation of readily available (Z)‐(2‐en‐4‐ynyl)amines, catalyzed by the PdI2‐KI system, selectively afforded in satisfactory yields (40–95 %) either pyrrole‐2‐acetic ester or (pyridine‐2‐one)‐3‐acetic amide derivatives, depending on the susbtitution pattern of the substrate and the reaction conditions. The presence of an excess of carbon dioxide proved in most cases to be beneficial to both the reaction rate and product selectivity. 相似文献
Compound 20 , a pseudoenantiomer of β‐isocupreidine (β‐ICD), was synthesized from quinine employing a Barton reaction of nitrosyl ester 13 and acid‐catalyzed cyclization of carbinol 18 as key steps. The Baylis–Hillman reaction of benzaldehyde, p‐nitrobenzaldehyde, and hydrocinnamaldehyde with 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoroisopropyl acrylate (HFIPA) using 20 as a chiral amine catalyst was found to give the corresponding S‐enriched adducts in high optical purity (>91% ee) in contrast to the β‐ICD‐catalyzed reaction which affords R‐enriched adducts. This result suggests that compound 20 can serve as an enantiocomplementary catalyst of β‐ICD in the asymmetric Baylis–Hillman reaction of aldehydes with HFIPA. 相似文献
The synthesis of chiral 3‐hydroxy‐2‐methylpropanoic acid esters (e.g., “Roche ester” 3a ) based on the rhodium‐catalyzed stereoselective hydrogenation of Baylis–Hillman reaction products was investigated. Full conversions and enantioselectivities of up to 99% at a substrate/catalyst ratio of up to 500/1 were achieved by application of bisphospholanes of the catASium M series as ancillary ligands. An interesting kinetic resolution was observed by the diastereoselective hydroxy‐directed hydrogenation of related racemic β‐branched precursors affording mainly anti‐isomers with up to 96%ee. 相似文献
The formation of 4‐alkoxy‐2(5H)‐furanones was achieved via tandem alkoxylation/lactonization of γ‐hydroxy‐α,β‐acetylenic esters catalyzed by 2 mol% of [2,6‐bis(diisopropylphenyl)imidazol‐2‐ylidine]gold bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imidate [Au(IPr)(NTf2)]. The economic and simple procedure was applied to a series of various secondary propargylic alcohols allowing for yields of desired product of up to 95%. In addition, tertiary propargylic alcohols bearing mostly cyclic substituents were converted into the corresponding spiro derivatives. Both primary and secondary alcohols reacted with propargylic alcohols at moderate temperatures (65–80 °C) in either neat reactions or using 1,2‐dichloroethane as a reaction medium allowing for yields of 23–95%. In contrast to [Au(IPr)(NTf2)], reactions with cationic complexes such as [2,6‐bis(diisopropylphenyl)imidazol‐2‐ylidine](acetonitrile)gold tetrafluoroborate [Au(IPr)(CH3CN)][BF4] or (μ‐hydroxy)bis{[2,6‐bis(diisopropylphenyl)imidazol‐2‐ylidine]gold} tetrafluoroborate or bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imidate – [{Au(IPr)}2(μ‐OH)][X] (X=BF4, NTf2) – mostly stop after the alkoxylation. Analysis of the intermediate proved the exclusive formation of the E‐isomer which allows for the subsequent lactonization. 相似文献
Bismuth triflate was found to be an efficient catalyst in the Sakurai reaction of allyltrimethylsilanes with N‐alkoxycarbonylamino sulfones. The reaction proceeded smoothly with a low catalyst loading of Bi(OTf)3⋅4 H2O (2–5 mol%) to afford the corresponding protected homoallylic amines in very good yields (up to 96%). A sequential allylation reaction followed by ring‐closing metathesis delivers 6–8 membered 3‐Cbz‐protected cycloalkenylamines. 相似文献
Some readily available Boc‐protected 2‐(3‐methoxy‐1‐propynyl)anilines and nitrones in platinum‐catalyzed reactions deliver [1,2]oxazino[5,4‐b]indoles. Twelve examples with yields of 41–95% are reported. Different substituents like nitro, trifluoromethyl, fluoro, bromo, and ester groups are tolerated. With regard to the mechanism, this reaction probably combines an initial intramolecular cyclization/elimination to vinylcarbenoid species and a subsequent stepwise intermolecular [3+3] cycloaddition with the nitrones. 相似文献
The present paper describes the synthesis and evaluation of surface properties of a novel series of anionic surfactant, namely sodium 3‐(3‐alkyloxy‐3‐oxopropoxy)‐3‐oxopropane‐1‐sulfonate with varying alkyl chain length (C8–C16). Synthesis involves initial formation of the 3‐alkyloxy‐3‐oxopropyl acrylate along with fatty acrylate during the direct esterification of fatty alcohol with acrylic acid in the presence of 0.5 % NaHSO4 at 110 °C followed by sulfonation of the terminal double bond of the 3‐alkyloxy‐3‐oxopropyl acrylate. Synthesized compounds were evaluated for surface and thermodynamic properties such as critical micelle concentration (CMC), surface tension at CMC (γcmc), efficiency of surface adsorption (pC20), surface excess (Γmax), minimum area per molecule at the air–water interface (Amin), free energy of adsorption (?G°ads), free energy of micellization (?G°mic), wetting time, emulsifying properties, foaming power and calcium tolerance. Effect of chain length on CMC follows the classic trend, i.e. decrease in CMC with the increase in alkyl chain length. High pC20 (>3) value indicates higher hydrophobic character of the surfactant. These surfactants showed very poor wetting time and calcium tolerance, but exhibited good emulsion stability and excellent foamability. Foaming power and foam stability of C14‐sulfonate were found to be the best among the studied compounds. Foam stability of C14‐sulfonate was also studied at different concentrations over time and excellent foam stability was obtained at a concentration of 0.075 %. Thus this novel class of surfactant may find applications as foam boosters in combination with other suitable surfactants. 相似文献
The Wittig reaction of isatin derivatives with Morita–Baylis–Hillman bromides of cinnamaldehydes afforded 3‐dienylidene‐2‐oxindoles. These trienes were converted into the corresponding spirooxindoles in a stereoselective manner in refluxing toluene in good yields. The diastereomeric spirooxindoles could be obtained stereoselectively by adding a catalytic amount of palladium(II) acetate via the palladium‐catalyzed isomerization of EEE‐trienes to ZEE‐trienes followed by a more facile 6π‐electrocyclization process. The obtained spirooxindoles could be further functionalized by palladium‐catalyzed oxidative arylation, thionation with Lawesson’s reagent, catalytic hydrogenation and Friedel–Crafts‐type reaction.
A ketal group in a furyl position affords arene oxides from γ‐alkynylfurans even with the simple gold(III) chloride (AuCl3) catalyst. These can either undergo Diels–Alder reactions, isomerise to stable oxepines by an oxygen‐walk reaction or by the addition of water selectively be converted to phenols which differ in the position of the hydroxy group from the normal phenols formed in the gold‐catalysed phenol synthesis. With a phenyl substituent on the furan, the 2‐hydroxymethylpyridinato‐gold(III) complex, not the usual arene oxide but an oxepine is obtained, still the arene oxide can be trapped from the valence‐tautomeric equilibrium by a Diels–Alder reaction. 相似文献
An asymmetric Michael addition of α‐substituted cyano ketones to β,γ‐unsaturated α‐keto esters to form chiral dihydropyrans catalyzed by a series of α‐amino acid‐derived thiourea‐tertiary amines is presented. A novel tyrosine‐derived thiourea catalyst was identified as the optimal catalyst providing the desired product in 91–95% yields and with 90–96% ee at a low catalyst loading of 2.0 mol%. The utility of the reaction was exemplified by facile conversion of the dihydropyran product into pharmaceutically useful dihydropyridine. 相似文献
The highly enantioselective organo‐co‐catalytic aza‐Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH)‐type reaction between N‐carbamate‐protected imines and α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes has been developed. The organic co‐catalytic system of proline and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) enables the asymmetric synthesis of the corresponding N‐Boc‐ and N‐Cbz‐protected β‐amino‐α‐alkylidene‐aldehydes in good to high yields and up to 99% ee. In the case of aza‐MBH‐type addition of enals to phenylprop‐2‐ene‐1‐imines, the co‐catalytic reaction exhibits excellent 1,2‐selectivity. The organo‐co‐catalytic aza‐MBH‐type reaction can also be performed by the direct highly enantioselective addition of α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes to bench‐stable N‐carbamate‐protected α‐amidosulfones to give the corresponding β‐amino‐α‐alkylidene‐aldehydes with up to 99% ee. The organo‐co‐catalytic aza‐MBH‐type reaction is also an expeditious entry to nearly enantiomerically pure β‐amino‐α‐alkylidene‐amino acids and β‐amino‐α‐alkylidene‐lactams (99% ee). The mechanism and stereochemistry of the chiral amine and DABCO co‐catalyzed aza‐MBH‐type reaction are also discussed. 相似文献
In accordance with a novel strategy for generating the 2‐benzazepine scaffold by connecting C6–C1 and C3–N building blocks, a set of 5‐phenylsulfanyl‐ and 5‐benzyl‐substituted tetrahydro‐2‐benzazepines was synthesized and pharmacologically evaluated. Key steps of the synthesis were the Heck reaction, the Stetter reaction, a reductive cyclization, and the introduction of diverse N substituents at the end of the synthesis. High σ1 affinity was achieved for 2‐benzazepines with linear or branched alk(en)yl residues containing at least an n‐butyl substructure. The butyl‐ and 4‐fluorobenzyl‐substituted derivatives, (±)‐5‐benzyl‐2‐butyl‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐2‐benzazepine ( 19 b ) and (±)‐5‐benzyl‐2‐(4‐fluorobenzyl)‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐2‐benzazepine ( 19 m ), show high selectivity over more than 50 other relevant targets, including the σ2 subtype and various binding sites of the N‐methyl‐D ‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor. In the Irwin screen, 19 b and 19 m showed clean profiles without inducing considerable side effects. Compounds 19 b and 19 m did not reveal significant analgesic and cognition‐enhancing activity. Compound 19 m did not have any antidepressant‐like effects in mice. 相似文献
The asymmetric synthesis of a set of hydroxyphenyl γ‐valerolactones was achieved starting from 2‐silyloxyfuran and alkoxy‐substituted benzaldehydes as common precursors. Key synthesis steps included an enantioselective vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction and a Barton–McCombie deoxygenation. Five enantioenriched γ‐valerolactone targets were obtained in 5–6 steps, 18–63% overall yields and 82–98 % ee, paving the way for the straightforward entry to this class of biologically effective and poorly available flavan‐3‐ol metabolites. In parallel, an unprecedented one‐pot reductive ring expansion process was fortuitously discovered, yielding racemic δ‐lactone analogues from phenolic butanolide precursors.
