ABSTRACT TESKE, JESSE ALEXANDER. Natural Product Synthesis Via [2+2+2] Cyclotrimerization Reactions. (Under the Direction Of ABSTRACT TESKE, JESSE ALEXANDER. Natural Product Synthesis via [2+2+2] Cyclotrimerization Reactions. (Under the direction of Dr. Alex Deiters). The transition metal mediated [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization reaction of alkynes is a highly convergent approach to the synthesis of polysubstituted carbo- and heterocyclic aromatic ring systems. However, few examples of the application of cyclotrimerization reactions in natural product synthesis have been reported. In order to supplement the understanding of various aspects of the cyclotrimerization chemistry such as reactivity, regioselectivity, and chemoselectivity of advanced diyne intermediates, we explored the development of the [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization reaction towards benzene and pyridine derivatives as well as its application to the total synthesis of natural products. As an approach to solve the chemoselectivity issues associated with the cyclotrimerization reaction, a solid supported cyclotrimerization reaction was utilized as the key step in the regioselective synthesis of an indanone natural product in only 11 steps. The development of microwave assisted nickel catalyzed cyclotrimerization reactions allowed for the rapid synthesis of fused benzene ring systems and led to the total synthesis of the isoquinoline natural product illudinine in only eight steps. Several strategies towards the synthesis of anthraquinone and anthracycline natural products were investigated. The efficiency of these reactions was sensitive to both the electronic and steric properties of the investigated diynes. A novel approach to the tricyclic cannabinoid ring structure via the cyclotrimerization reaction was developed and led to the total synthesis of three cannabinoid natural products all in >20% overall yield. Furthermore, easy access to cannabinoid analogues is possible with this strategy. Initial investigations into the synthesis of four neolignan natural products from a common precursor were accomplished. The cyclotrimerization reaction successfully provided the core structures; however, subsequent steps to yield the natural products are needed. With respect to pyridine derivatives, the syntheses of the Streptomyces anticancer natural products streptonigrin and lavendamycin were explored. Several model routes, including the use of ynamides, were initiated to access the core structures, and further examination into the substitution of the diynes is necessary to realize the total synthesis of these two natural products. Attempts to synthesize two lycopodium alkaloids, lycopladine A and lycodine, via the cyclotrimerization reaction of alkyne-nitriles have been studied. However, access to the requisite alkyne-nitriles for the cyclotrimerization reaction has been problematic.

Lindsey Dr. David Shultz DEDICATION To my father, for nourishing my interest in science… To my mother, for support and encouragement… And to my wife, for unfailing love and understanding… ii BIOGRAPHY The author, Jesse Alexander Teske, was born in Monterey, CA on November 18, 1982 to Dewey and Dori Teske. After living briefly in Connecticut and Virginia, he moved to Charleston, SC at the age of three and stayed through high school. After high school, Jesse attended the University of Georgia and graduated magna cum laude with honors with a BSCHEM degree in Chemistry and a BS degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. During his undergraduate research under the direction of Professor George Majetich, his passion for Organic Chemistry developed and inspired him to pursue graduate studies in that discipline. In 2004, Jesse began his graduate career at North Carolina State University under the supervision of Professor Alex Deiters. In July of 2005, Jesse married his high school sweetheart, Amber Mincey. Upon completion of his Ph.D. in 2009, he began a postdoctoral research position at Vanderbilt University under the direction of Professor Gary Sulikowski. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are quite a few people worth mentioning from whom I have received help throughout the course of my education. First, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Alex Deiters, for relaying some of the finer intricacies of being an organic chemist, for the independence in the lab, and for the high expectations that will ultimately make me a better and more successful scientist. My time in graduate school was enriched by the distinctive personalities of Dabney Hall. The members of the Deiters group, especially Doug, Ramesh, Wesleigh, Andrew, and Yan have contributed to my growth as a scientist as well as provided much needed comic relief. I thank the members of the Melander group, especially The Rob, EB, and VB; the Comins group; and the Lindsey group. Finally, I would not be who or where I am today without my family. To my Mom and Dad, thank you for allowing me to choose my own path as you provided support and advice that continues to this day. To my brother, thanks for introducing me to things outside of school. And to my wife, you have stood by me these last five years and have provided me with your love, understanding, friendship, and support.

  • Complexes for Click Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition Reactions
    Well-defined Copper(I) Complexes for Click Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition Reactions: One Click Beyond Silvia Díez-González* Department of Chemistry, Imperial College London Exhibition Road, South Kensington, SW7 2AZ London (UK) [email protected] Abstract: The discovery of copper(I) species as excellent catalysts for the regioselective cycloaddition reactions of azides and alkynes served as proof-of-concept of the importance of Click chemistry and opened a broad field of research that has found numerous ramifications in biochemistry, materials and medicinal science, for instance. The use of ligands in this context not only serves to stabilize the oxidation state of copper, but has also been shown to increase and modulate its reactivity. Still, efforts focused on developing more efficient catalytic systems for this transformation remain limited. Herein, the catalytic activities of ligated copper systems are reviewed in a way intended inspirational for further developments. 1. Introduction Transition metal catalysis is one of the most powerful tools available to chemists for the development of cleaner and more sustainable processes. Although simple metal salts can mediate a number of transformations, it was the use of ligands that catapulted organometallic catalysis to its present leading status. In particular, the use of well-defined complexes allows for a better control of the nature of the species present in the reaction media and generally avoids the need for excess of ligand and/or reagents for achieving optimal catalytic performance. These two points are crucial in the continuous quest of molecular chemistry for more efficient and less contaminating processes capable of providing diverse and complex architectures.

Received: 28 September 2020; Accepted: 30 September 2020; Published: 1 October 2020 Cross-coupling reactions stand among the most important reactions in chemistry [1,2]. Nowadays, they are a highly valuable synthetic tool used for the preparation of a wide variety of organic compounds, from natural and synthetic bioactive compounds to new organic materials, in all fields of chemistry [3]. Almost 50 years from its discovery, the research in this topic remains active, and important progresses are accomplished every year. For this reason, we believe that a Special Issue on this topic is of general interest for the chemistry community. Advances in cross-coupling reactions have been developed with the aim to expand the synthetic utility of the methodology, through the involvement of new components, reaction conditions, and therefore, novel synthetic applications [4]. Although initially the term “cross-coupling” referred to the reaction of an organometallic reagent with an unsaturated organic halide or pseudohalide under transition metal catalysis, currently the definition is much more general and applies to reactions involving other components, conditions, and more complex synthetic transformations. In addition to the well-known and recognized cross-coupling reactions using organoboron (Suzuki-Miyaura), organotin (Stille), organozinc (Negishi), or organosilicon (Hiyama) nucleophiles, reactions involving other organometallic reagents such as organoindium [5,6], organolithium [7], and Grignard reagents [8] are now useful synthetic alternatives.

  • Multimetallic Catalysed Radical Oxidative C(Sp3)–H/C(Sp)–H Cross-Coupling Between Unactivated Alkanes and Terminal Alkynes
    ARTICLE Received 2 Jan 2016 | Accepted 19 Apr 2016 | Published 24 Jun 2016 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms11676 OPEN Multimetallic catalysed radical oxidative C(sp3)–H/C(sp)–H cross-coupling between unactivated alkanes and terminal alkynes Shan Tang1, Pan Wang1, Haoran Li1 & Aiwen Lei1,2 Radical involved transformations are now considered as extremely important processes in modern organic synthetic chemistry. According to the demand by atom-economic and sustainable chemistry, direct C(sp3)–H functionalization through radical oxidative coupling represents an appealing strategy for C–C bond formations. However, the selectivity control of reactive radical intermediates is still a great challenge in these transformations. Here we show a selective radical oxidative C(sp3)–H/C(sp)–H cross-coupling of unactivated alkanes with terminal alkynes by using a combined Cu/Ni/Ag catalytic system. It provides a new way to access substituted alkynes from readily available materials. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that this reaction proceeds through a radical process and the C(sp3)–H bond cleavage is the rate-limiting step. This study may have significant implications for controlling selective C–C bond formation of reactive radical intermediates by using multimetallic catalytic systems. 1 College of Chemistry and Molecular Sciences, Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS), Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China. 2 National Research Center for Carbohydrate Synthesis, Jiangxi Normal University, Nanchang 330022, China.

Box 36, Muscat 123, Oman; [email protected]; Tel.: +968-2414-1473 Abstract: Cross-coupling reactions furnishing carbon–carbon (C–C) and carbon–heteroatom (C–X) bond is one of the most challenging tasks in organic syntheses. The early developed reaction protocols by Ullmann, Ullman–Goldberg, Cadiot–Chodkiewicz, Castro–Stephens, and Corey–House, utilizing elemental copper or its salts as catalyst have, for decades, attracted and inspired scientists. However, these reactions were suffering from the range of functional groups tolerated as well as severely restricted by the harsh reaction conditions often required high temperatures (150–200 ◦C) for extended reaction time. Enormous efforts have been paid to develop and achieve more sustainable reaction conditions by applying the microwave irradiation. The use of controlled microwave heating dramatically reduces the time required and therefore resulting in increase in the yield as well as the efficiency of the reaction. This review is mainly focuses on the recent advances and applications of copper catalyzed cross-coupling generation of carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond under microwave technology.

  • A. Discovery of Novel Reactivity Under the Sonogashira Reaction Conditions B. Synthesis of Functionalized Bodipys and BODIPY-Sug
    A. Discovery of novel reactivity under the Sonogashira reaction conditions B. Synthesis of functionalized BODIPYs and BODIPY-sugar conjugates Ravi Shekar Yalagala, M.Phil Department of Chemistry Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Mathematics and Science, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © 2016 ABSTRACT A. During our attempts to synthesize substituted enediynes, coupling reactions between terminal alkynes and 1,2-cis-dihaloalkenes under the Sonogashira reaction conditions failed to give the corresponding substituted enediynes. Under these conditions, terminal alkynes underwent self-trimerization or tetramerization. In an alternative approach to access substituted enediynes, treatment of alkynes with trisubstituted (Z)- bromoalkenyl-pinacolboronates under Sonogashira coupling conditions was found to give 1,2,4,6-tetrasubstituted benzenes instead of Sonogashira coupled product. The reaction conditions and substrate scopes for these two new reactions were investigated. B. BODIPY core was functionalized with various functional groups such as nitromethyl, nitro, hydroxymethyl, carboxaldehyde by treating 4,4-difluoro-1,3,5,7,8- pentamethyl-2,6-diethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene with copper (II) nitrate trihydrate under different conditions. Further, BODIPY derivatives with alkyne and azido functional groups were synthesized and conjugated to various glycosides by the Click reaction under the microwave conditions. One of the BODIPY–glycan conjugate was found to form liposome upon rehydration. The photochemical properties of BODIPY in these liposomes were characterized by fluorescent confocal microscopy. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am extremely grateful to a number of people. Without their help, this document would have never been completed. First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor and mentor Professor Tony Yan for his guidance and supervision to make the thesis possible.

Dr. BK SINGH, Department of Chemistry, University of Delhi Applications of Pd(0) and Pd(II) complexes in organic synthesis- Heck, Negishi, Suzuki, Stille and Sonogashira Coupling 2010 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded jointly to Richard F. Heck, Ei-ichi Negishi, and Akira Suzuki "for palladium-catalyzed cross couplings in organic synthesis" Dr. BK SINGH, Department of Chemistry, University of Delhi Palladium-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation via cross coupling The principle of palladium-catalyzed cross couplings is that two molecules are assembled on the metal via the formation of metal-carbon bonds. In this way the carbon atoms bound to palladium are brought very close to one another. In the next step they couple to one another and this leads to the formation of a new carbon-carbon single bond. There are two types of cross-coupling reactions that have become important in organic synthesis. Both reactions are catalyzed by zero valent Pd and both reactions employ an organohalide RX (or analogous compound) as the electrophilic coupling partner. The nucleophilic coupling partner differs in these two reactions. In the first type it is an olefin whereas in the second type it is an organometallic compound R’’M where, M is typically zinc, boron, or tin. Both reactions begin by generating an organopalladium complex RPdX from the reaction of the organic halide with Pd(0).
