The Synthesis and Applications of N-Alkenyl Aziridines
The Synthesis and Applications of N-Alkenyl Aziridines by Nicholas A. Afagh A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Nicholas A. Afagh 2010 The Synthesis and Applications of N-Alkenyl Aziridines Nicholas A. Afagh Master of Science Department of Chemistry University of Toronto 2010 Abstract N-alkenyl aziridines are a unique class of molecules that do not behave as typical enamines as a result of the inability of the nitrogen atom lone-pair of electrons to delocalize. The attenuated nucleophilicity of these enamines presents opportunities for the selective functionalization and reactivity not available to classical enamines. An operationally simple and mild copper-mediated coupling has been developed that facilitates the preparation of a broad range of N-alkenyl aziridines not available through existing methods. The preparation and reactivity of highly- functionalized N-alkenyl aziridines are reported. Also reported is the application of the chemoselective amine/aldehyde/alkyne (A 3) multicomponent coupling involving amphoteric aziridine aldehydes as the aldehyde component. This coupling allows access to propargyl amines with pendent aziridine functionality. ii Acknowledgments First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor Andrei K. Yudin for his continuous support and encouragement over the past two years. His wealth of knowledge and profound insight into all matters chemistry made for many interesting discussions. In addition, I would like to thank all the members of the Yudin group past and present with whom I have had the distinct pleasure of working alongside and shared many late evenings. -
Radical Approaches to Alangium and Mitragyna Alkaloids
Radical Approaches to Alangium and Mitragyna Alkaloids A Thesis Submitted for a PhD University of York Department of Chemistry 2010 Matthew James Palframan Abstract The work presented in this thesis has focused on the development of novel and concise syntheses of Alangium and Mitragyna alkaloids, and especial approaches towards (±)-protoemetinol (a), which is a key precursor of a range of Alangium alkaloids such as psychotrine (b) and deoxytubulosine (c). The approaches include the use of a key radical cyclisation to form the tri-cyclic core. O O O N N N O O O H H H H H H O N NH N Protoemetinol OH HO a Psychotrine Deoxytubulosine b c Chapter 1 gives a general overview of radical chemistry and it focuses on the application of radical intermolecular and intramolecular reactions in synthesis. Consideration is given to the mediator of radical reactions from the classic organotin reagents, to more recently developed alternative hydrides. An overview of previous synthetic approaches to a range of Alangium and Mitragyna alkaloids is then explored. Chapter 2 follows on from previous work within our group, involving the use of phosphorus hydride radical addition reactions, to alkenes or dienes, followed by a subsequent Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. It was expected that the tri-cyclic core of the Alangium alkaloids could be prepared by cyclisation of a 1,7-diene, using a phosphorus hydride to afford the phosphonate or phosphonothioate, however this approach was unsuccessful and it highlighted some limitations of the methodology. Chapter 3 explores the radical and ionic chemistry of a range of silanes. -

Synthetic Strategies to Access Biologically Important Fluorinated Motifs: Fluoroalkenes and Difluoroketones by Ming-Hsiu Yang Su
Synthetic Strategies to Access Biologically Important Fluorinated Motifs: Fluoroalkenes and Difluoroketones By Ming-Hsiu Yang Submitted to the graduate degree program in Medicinal Chemistry and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Chairperson Ryan A. Altman Michael D. Clift Apurba Dutta Michael F. Rafferty Jon A. Tunge Date Defended: April 26, 2017 The Dissertation Committee for Ming-Hsiu Yang certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Synthetic Strategies to Access Biologically Important Fluorinated Motifs: Fluoroalkenes and Difluoroketones Chairperson Ryan A. Altman Date Approved: April 26, 2017 ii Abstract Ming-Hsiu Yang Department of Medicinal Chemistry, April 2017 The University of Kansas Fluorine plays an important role in drug design, because of some unique features imparted by fluorine. The incorporation of fluorine into small molecules can modulate molecular physicochemical properties, metabolic stability, lipophilicity, and binding affinity to the target proteins. However, few fluorinated molecules are biosynthesized by enzymes. This means incorporating fluorine into the molecules relies on synthetic methods. Thus, efficient synthetic strategies to access the molecules bearing a variety of privileged fluorinated moieties are important for drug discovery. Fluoroalkenes are an isopolar and isosteric mimic of an amide bond with distinct biophysical properties, including decreased H-bond donating and accepting abilities, increased lipophilicity, and metabolic stability. Moreover, fluoroalkenes can also serve as probes for conducting conformational analyses of amides. These potential applications require the development of efficient methods to access fluoroalkenes. In chapter 2, a Shapiro fluorination strategy to access peptidomimetic fluoroalkenes is demonstrated. -

Hydrazones are present in many of the bioactive heterocyclic compounds that are of very important use because of their various biological and clinical applications. Therefore, many researchers have synthesized these compounds as target structures and evaluated their antimicrobial activities. These observations have been guiding for the development of new hydrazones that possess varied biological activities.

Hydrazone is a versatile moiety that exhibits a wide variety of biological activities. A hydrazone is a class of organic compounds with the structure R1R2C=NNH 2. Hydrazones are basically related to ketones and aldehydes. Hydrazones are formed by the replacement of the oxygen of carbonyl compounds with the -NNH 2 functional group. Hydrazones act as reactants in many important reactions e.g. -

Bridging McMurry and Wittig in One-Pot. Olefins from Stereoselective, Reductive Couplings of Two Aldehydes via Phosphaalkenes. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 1755. 112 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0536-3. The formation of C=C bonds is of great importance for fundamental and industrial synthetic organic chemistry. There are many different methodologies for the construction of C=C bonds in the literature, but currently only the McMurry reaction allows the reductive coupling of two carbonyl compounds to form alkenes. This thesis contributes to the field of carbonyl olefinations and presents the development of a new synthetic protocol for a one-pot reductive coupling of two aldehydes to alkenes based on organophosphorus chemistry. The coupling reagent, a phosphanylphosphonate, reacts with an aldehyde to yield a phosphaalkene intermediate which upon activation with a base undergoes an olefination with a second aldehyde. A general overview of synthetic methods for carbonyl olefinations and the chemistry of phosphaalkenes is given in the background chapter. -
