  • Organocatalytic Asymmetric N-Sulfonyl Amide C-N Bond Activation to Access Axially Chiral Biaryl Amino Acids
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-14799-8 OPEN Organocatalytic asymmetric N-sulfonyl amide C-N bond activation to access axially chiral biaryl amino acids Guanjie Wang1, Qianqian Shi2, Wanyao Hu1, Tao Chen1, Yingying Guo1, Zhouli Hu1, Minghua Gong1, ✉ ✉ ✉ Jingcheng Guo1, Donghui Wei 2 , Zhenqian Fu 1,3 & Wei Huang1,3 1234567890():,; Amides are among the most fundamental functional groups and essential structural units, widely used in chemistry, biochemistry and material science. Amide synthesis and trans- formations is a topic of continuous interest in organic chemistry. However, direct catalytic asymmetric activation of amide C-N bonds still remains a long-standing challenge due to high stability of amide linkages. Herein, we describe an organocatalytic asymmetric amide C-N bonds cleavage of N-sulfonyl biaryl lactams under mild conditions, developing a general and practical method for atroposelective construction of axially chiral biaryl amino acids. A structurally diverse set of axially chiral biaryl amino acids are obtained in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. Moreover, a variety of axially chiral unsymmetrical biaryl organocatalysts are efficiently constructed from the resulting axially chiral biaryl amino acids by our present strategy, and show competitive outcomes in asymmetric reactions. 1 Key Laboratory of Flexible Electronics & Institute of Advanced Materials, Jiangsu National Synergetic Innovation Center for Advanced Materials, Nanjing Tech University, 30 South Puzhu Road, Nanjing 211816, China. 2 College

Paulson, Esteban Delgado, III, Andrew L. Cooksy, and Douglas B. Grotjahn* San Diego State University, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, California 92182-1030, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Here we examine in detail two catalysts for their ability to selectively convert 1-alkenes to (E)-2-alkenes while κ2 + limiting overisomerization to 3- or 4-alkenes. Catalysts 1 and 3 are composed of the cations CpRu( -PN)(CH3CN) and * κ2 + − Cp Ru( -PN) , respectively (where PN is a bifunctional phosphine ligand), and the anion PF6 . Kinetic modeling of the fi reactions of six substrates with 1 and 3 generated rst- and second-order rate constants k1 and k2 (and k3 when applicable) that represent the rates of reaction for conversion of 1-alkene to (E)-2-alkene (k1), (E)-2-alkene to (E)-3-alkene (k2), and so on. The k1:k2 ratios were calculated to produce a measure of selectivity for each catalyst toward monoisomerization with each substrate. fi The k1:k2 values for 1 with the six substrates range from 32 to 132. The k1:k2 values for 3 are signi cantly more substrate- dependent, ranging from 192 to 62 000 for all of the substrates except 5-hexen-2-one, for which the k1:k2 value was only 4.7. Comparison of the ratios for 1 and 3 for each substrate shows a 6−12-fold greater selectivity using 3 on the three linear substrates as well as a >230-fold increase for 5-methylhex-1-ene and a 44-fold increase for a silyl-protected 4-penten-1-ol substrate, which are branched three and five atoms away from the alkene, respectively.

We studied the effect of the HPW loading on TiO2 (from 1.4 to 2.7 monolayers) on the dispersion and acid characteristics of the HPW clusters. When the concentration of the heteropoliacid is slightly higher than the monolayer (1.4 monolayers) the acidity of the clusters is perturbed by the surface of titania, while for concentration higher than 1.7 monolayers results in the formation of three-dimensional HPW nanocrystals with acidity similar to the bulk heteropolyacid. Physical hybridization of supported heteropolyacids with the Cu-ZnO(Al) catalyst modifies both the acid characteristics of the supported heteropolyacids and the copper surface area of the Cu-ZnO(Al) catalyst.

Soft Propargylic Deprotonation and Chiral 2,5- ABSTRACT: The asymmetric isomerization of alkyne to Dihydrofuran Synthesis allene is the most efficient and the completely atom- economic approach to this class of versatile axial chiral structure. However, the state-of-the-art is limited to tert- butyl alk-3-ynoate substrates that possess requisite acidic propargylic C−H bonds. Reported here is a strategy based on gold catalysis that is enabled by a designed chiral bifunctional biphenyl-2-ylphosphine ligand. It permits isomerization of alkynes with nonacidic α-C−H bonds and hence offers a much-needed general solution. With chiral propargylic alcohols as substrates, 2,5-disubstituted 2,5-dihydrofurans are formed in one step in typically good yields and with good to excellent diastereoselectivities. With achiral substrates, 2,5-dihydrofurans are formed with good to excellent enantiomeric excesses. A novel center- chirality approach is developed to achieve a stereocontrol effect similar to an axial chirality in the designed chiral ligand. The mechanistic studies established that the precatalyst axial epimers are all converted into the catalytically active cationic gold catalyst owing to the fluxional axis of the latter. from https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jacs.8b12833.

The catalysts promoted the enantioselective Michael addition of both mono- and diketones to a broad range of nitroalkenes providing the corresponding products in moderate to high yields with excellent enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities (up to 96% yield, 96% ee, 98:2 dr) under mild conditions. These results demonstrate that the assembly of two chiral privileged skeletons, pyrrolidine and cinchonine with a squaramide linker is a useful strategy to reach a wider substrate scope, high reaction efficiency and enantioselectivity. The match of the chiralities between two backbones embedded in the catalysts is also critical for improving enantioselectivity.

  • Bifunctional CYP81AA Proteins Catalyse Identical Hydroxylations but Alternative Regioselective Phenol Couplings in Plant Xanthone Biosynthesis
    ARTICLE Received 27 Oct 2015 | Accepted 30 Mar 2016 | Published 5 May 2016 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms11472 OPEN Bifunctional CYP81AA proteins catalyse identical hydroxylations but alternative regioselective phenol couplings in plant xanthone biosynthesis Islam El-Awaad1,2,w, Marco Bocola3, Till Beuerle1,2, Benye Liu1,2 & Ludger Beerhues1,2 Xanthones are natural products present in plants and microorganisms. In plants, their biosynthesis starts with regioselective cyclization of 2,30,4,6-tetrahydroxybenzophenone to either 1,3,5- or 1,3,7-trihydroxyxanthones, catalysed by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Here we isolate and express CYP81AA-coding sequences from Hypericum calycinum and H. perforatum in yeast. Microsomes catalyse two consecutive reactions, that is, 30-hydro- xylation of 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzophenone and C–O phenol coupling of the resulting 2,30, 4,6-tetrahydroxybenzophenone. Relative to the inserted 30-hydroxyl, the orthologues Hc/HpCYP81AA1 cyclize via the para position to form 1,3,7-trihydroxyxanthone, whereas the paralogue HpCYP81AA2 directs cyclization to the ortho position, yielding the isomeric 1,3,5- trihydroxyxanthone. Homology modelling and reciprocal mutagenesis reveal the impact of S375, L378 and A483 on controlling the regioselectivity of HpCYP81AA2, which is converted into HpCYP81AA1 by sextuple mutation. However, the reciprocal mutations in HpCYP81AA1 barely affect its regiospecificity. Product docking rationalizes the alternative C–O phenol coupling reactions. Our results help understand the machinery of bifunctional CYPs. 1 Institute of Pharmaceutical Biology, Technische Universita¨t Braunschweig, Mendelssohnstrae 1, Braunschweig 38106, Germany. 2 Center of Pharmaceutical Engineering (PVZ), Technische Universita¨t Braunschweig, Franz-Liszt-Strae 35A, Braunschweig 38106, Germany. 3 Institute of Biotechnology, RWTH Aachen University, Worringerweg 1, Aachen 52074, Germany.
