The recent discovery of a Diels±Alderase enzyme has provided insights into the mechanism of biosynthetic cycloaddition. As a follow-up to our book Dienes in the Diels±Alder Reaction -1990) and in light of our personal experience as well as the reviews and books that have been published on this topic to date,we decided that a book collecting and describing the experimental methods that have been developed to perform the Diels±Alder reaction would be a useful tool for researchers working in organic synthesis. The first chapter presents the general aspects of the reaction; Chapters 2±6 illustrate the various methods and their applications in organic synthesis. At the end of each chapter a list of graphically abstracted Diels±Alder reactions is presented to show selected synthetic applications of the specific methodology. The discussion of the various topics is not exhaustive because our aim has been to emphasize the synthetic potential of each method. Chapter 7 reports a list of books,reviews,monographs and symposia proceedings which have appeared since 1990 and an index of keywords to help the reader find a particular paper of interest. The book is directed toward undergraduate and graduate level students,as well as to academic and industrial researchers working in organic synthesis.

    Alkyne-Nitrone Cycloadditions for Functionalizing Cell Surface Proteins by Craig McKay Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Candidate Supervisor Craig McKay Dr. John Paul Pezacki Ottawa-Carleton Chemistry Institute Faculty of Science University of Ottawa © Craig McKay, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 Alkyne-Nitrone Cycloadditions for Functionalizing Cell Surface Proteins by Craig McKay Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies On July 31, 2012 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Organic Chemistry Abstract Over the past decade, bioorthogonal chemistry has emerged as powerful tools used for tracking biomolecules within living systems. Despite the vast number of organic transformations in the literature, only select few reactions meet the stringent requirements of bioorthogonality. There is increasing demands to develop biocompatible reactions that display high specificity and exquisitely fast kinetics under physiological conditions. With the goal of increasing reaction rates as a means for reducing the concentrations of labelling reagents used for bioconjugation, we have developed metal-catalyzed and metal-free alkyne- nitrone cycloadditions as alternatives to azide-alkyne cycloadditions and demonstrate their applications for imaging cell surface proteins. The copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition, also known as the Kinugasa reaction, is typically conducted with a Cu(I) catalyst in the absence of air. We have developed highly efficient micelle promoted multicomponent Kinugasa reactions in aqueous media to make the reaction faster and more efficient. Despite good product yields, the slow kinetics, limited substrate scope and competing side-reaction pathways precludes its practical applicability for biological labelling.

  • Investigations Into the Ruthenium Catalyzed Ring Opening and Dimerization Reactions of Oxabicyclic Alkenes
    Investigations into the Ruthenium Catalyzed Ring Opening and Dimerization Reactions of Oxabicyclic Alkenes by Kelsey Jack A Thesis Presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Kelsey Jack, December 2012 ABSTRACT INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE RUTHENIUM CATALYZED RING OPENING AND DIMERIZATION REACTIONS OF OXABICYCLIC ALKENES Kelsey Jack Advisor: University of Guelph, 2012 Professor W. Tam Oxabicyclic alkenes have been the focus of many synthetic studies as they are versatile compounds which act as synthetic intermediates to produce a variety of useful heterocyclic, carbocyclic and acyclic products. The nucleophilic ring opening reaction of oxabenzonorbornadiene was studied. Methanol was the primary nucleophile used throughout the investigation, however various other alcohol nucleophiles were also tested for their efficacy. The effects of substitution were explored, providing ring opened products in yields of up to 81%. The [2+2] cyclodimerization reaction of oxanorbornadienes was also examined providing the first examples of dimers of this kind. The scope was expanded to include other 2,3-diester oxanorbornadienes as well as various C1 substitutions. Changing the ester moiety did not affect the reaction, however the addition of a C1 alkyl substituent did result in lower yields. Moderate yields of up to 66% were obtained. Additionally, a new ruthenium complex was discovered in the process. Acknowledgments First and foremost I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. William Tam for all of his support and guidance over the years. This Master’s would never have happened if it weren’t for your encouragement and faith in me as an undergraduate student.

Ils ont de nombreux rôles biologiques, allant du transport d’électrons, à la biosynthèse des membranes cellulaires. Malgré la diversité des isoprénoïdes, ils sont synthétisés à partir de deux précurseurs : le diphosphate d’isopentényle (IPP) et le diphosphate de diméthylallyle (DMAPP). Deux voies de biosynthèse existent pour la formation de ces molécules : la voie du mévalonate et la voie du méthylérythritol phosphate (MEP), découverte plus récemment. 2, 3 Cette dernière voie de synthèse est utilisée par les micro-organismes dont des pathogènes comme Mycobacterium tuberculosis (bactérie responsable de la tuberculose), Vibrio cholerae (bactérie responsable du choléra) et Plasmodium falciparum (parasite responsable de la malaria). Elle est cependant absente chez l’humain et, par conséquent, est une cible de choix pour le développement d’un nouveau médicament antibactérien ou antiparasitaire.
