Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals
Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals • Although, the open chain structures of monosaccharides are consistent with the chemistry of carbohydrates, in reality they are oversimplifications of the true structure of carbohydrates. • It is common knowledge that aldehydes react with alcohols to form hemiacetals. In cases where a molecule is a hydroxyaldehyde such as 4- hydroxybutanal or 5-hydroxypentanal, cyclic hemiacetals result. 9:47 AM 1 Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals • Aldoses often contain an aldehyde group and several hydroxyl groups as part of the same molecule; they have a greater tendency of forming cyclic hemiacetals. In fact, in aqueous solution carbohydrates exist almost exclusively in the ring-closed form At equilibrium, the linear aldehyde or ketone structure represents less than 1% of the sugar present. • Five and six-membered rings are thermodynamically more stable than their corresponding four and seven membered rings, since they are less strained. • Five- (furanoses) and six-membered cyclic hemiacetals (pyranoses) are often more stable than their open-chain forms. In particular the six-membered rings which can adopt a chair conformation are 9:47 AM 2 essentially free from all types of strains. Structures of Monosaccharides Evidence for Existence of Monosacharides as Hemiacetals What physical, chemical and spectroscopic evidence support the existence of monosaccharide sugars as cyclic hemi-acetals. (a) Two anomers of glucose capable of existing independently with different physical (melting points and specific optical rotation) and chemical properties can be obtained by recrystallization. (b) the 1H-NMR and IR-spectra of solutions of pure sugars show the presence of mixtures (anomeric hemiacetals) and absence of an aldehydic peak is a sufficient indicator that the sugars exist in some other form other than the open-chain form. -

Enantioselective Synthesis of (−)-Vallesine: Late-stage C17- Oxidation via Complex Indole Boronation Alyssa H. Antropow, Nicholas R. Garcia, Kolby L. White, and Mohammad Movassaghi* Department of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139, USA Abstract The first enantioselective total synthesis of (−)-vallesine via a strategy that features a late-stage regioselective C17-oxidation, followed by a highly stereoselective transannular cyclization is reported. The versatility of this approach is highlighted by divergent synthesis of the archetypal alkaloid of this family, (+)-aspidospermidine, and an A-ring oxygenated derivative (+)- deacetylaspidospermine, the precursor to (−)-vallesine, from a common intermediate. -
Aldehydes Can React with Alcohols to Form Hemiacetals
340 14 . Nucleophilic substitution at C=O with loss of carbonyl oxygen You have, in fact, already met some reactions in which the carbonyl oxygen atom can be lost, but you probably didn’t notice at the time. The equilibrium between an aldehyde or ketone and its hydrate (p. 000) is one such reaction. O HO OH H2O + R1 R2 R1 R2 When the hydrate reverts to starting materials, either of its two oxygen atoms must leave: one OPh came from the water and one from the carbonyl group, so 50% of the time the oxygen atom that belonged to the carbonyl group will be lost. Usually, this is of no consequence, but it can be useful. O For example, in 1968 some chemists studying the reactions that take place inside mass spectrometers needed to label the carbonyl oxygen atom of this ketone with the isotope 18 O. 16 18 By stirring the ‘normal’ O compound with a large excess of isotopically labelled water, H 2 O, for a few hours in the presence of a drop of acid they were able to make the required labelled com- í In Chapter 13 we saw this way of pound.

Electrochemistry and Photoredox Catalysis: a Comparative Evaluation in Organic Synthesis
molecules Review Electrochemistry and Photoredox Catalysis: A Comparative Evaluation in Organic Synthesis Rik H. Verschueren and Wim M. De Borggraeve * Department of Chemistry, Molecular Design and Synthesis, KU Leuven, Celestijnenlaan 200F, box 2404, 3001 Leuven, Belgium; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +32-16-32-7693 Received: 30 March 2019; Accepted: 23 May 2019; Published: 5 June 2019 Abstract: This review provides an overview of synthetic transformations that have been performed by both electro- and photoredox catalysis. Both toolboxes are evaluated and compared in their ability to enable said transformations. Analogies and distinctions are formulated to obtain a better understanding in both research areas. This knowledge can be used to conceptualize new methodological strategies for either of both approaches starting from the other. It was attempted to extract key components that can be used as guidelines to refine, complement and innovate these two disciplines of organic synthesis. Keywords: electrosynthesis; electrocatalysis; photocatalysis; photochemistry; electron transfer; redox catalysis; radical chemistry; organic synthesis; green chemistry 1. Introduction Both electrochemistry as well as photoredox catalysis have gone through a recent renaissance, bringing forth a whole range of both improved and new transformations previously thought impossible. In their growth, inspiration was found in older established radical chemistry, as well as from cross-pollination between the two toolboxes. In scientific discussion, photoredox catalysis and electrochemistry are often mentioned alongside each other. Nonetheless, no review has attempted a comparative evaluation of both fields in organic synthesis. Both research areas use electrons as reagents to generate open-shell radical intermediates. Because of the similar modes of action, many transformations have been translated from electrochemical to photoredox methodology and vice versa. -

The purpose of this year’s project was to teach students how to synthesize a molecule that potentially mimics an existing drug that works against the COVID-19. The available drugs chosen for the project are those that are proposed to work either by prohibiting the easy entry of the virus into respiratory tissues or those who deprive the virus’s ability to reproduce once they enter the cell. An investigative search in historical literature and the current conditions of the virus enabled students to create a unique and innovative product that requires a cumulative learned knowledge. History has shown that when a new virus becomes pandemic it takes time for researchers to create a drug, test the results, and gets approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for public availability. -

Levinson Cornell University 2016 Part I: Fungi serve as a rich source of prenylated indole alkaloids, which exhibit important biological activities including antiproliferative, antibiotic, and antihelminthic properties. Their promise as therapeutics, coupled with their diverse and complex molecular architectures, have made prenylated indole alkaloids popular targets for synthetic chemists in order to probe their activities and develop new synthetic methods. Herein, we describe the first total synthesis of aspeverin, a unique bridged carbamate-containing prenylated indole alkaloid isolated from Aspergillus versicolor. We also describe the synthesis of a closely related congener, penicimutamide A, isolated from a mutant strain of Penicillium purpurogenum. These molecules belong to a recently described subclass of prenylated indoles thought to be degradation products of parent bicyclo[2.2.2]diazaoctane congeners. In this research, we showcase a highly diastereoselective Diels−Alder cycloaddition, followed by an electrophilic Rawal arylation – reductive indolization to forge the pentacyclic scaffold of these natural products. A novel sequence for installation of a geminal dimethyl group was also developed. -

Disaccharides with a free hemiacetal group (Reducing disaccharide) ii. Disaccharides without a free hemiacetal group (Non- Reducing Disaccharide) 10:51 AM 3 Nomenclature of Reducing Disaccharides • A disaccharide in which one glycosyl unit appears to have replaced the hydrogen atom of a hydroxyl group of the other is named as a glycosylglycose. The locants of the glycosidic linkage and the anomeric descriptor(s) must be given in the full name. • The parent sugar residue in such a reducing disaccharide is chosen on the basis of the following criteria: • The parent sugar residue is the one that includes the functional group most preferred by general principles of organic nomenclature. -
A General N-Alkylation Platform Via Copper Metallaphotoredox and Silyl Radical Activation of Alkyl Halides
ll Article A general N-alkylation platform via copper metallaphotoredox and silyl radical activation of alkyl halides Nathan W. Dow, Albert Cabre´, David W.C. MacMillan [email protected] Highlights General, room temperature N- alkylation via copper metallaphotoredox catalysis Broad reactivity across diverse alkyl bromides, N-heterocycles, and pharmaceuticals Convenient approach to N- cyclopropylation using easily handled bromocyclopropane Readily extended to functionalization of unactivated secondary alkyl chlorides Traditional substitution reactions between nitrogen nucleophiles and alkyl halides feature well-established, substrate-dependent limitations and competing reaction pathways under thermally induced conditions. Herein, we report that a metallaphotoredox approach, utilizing a halogen abstraction-radical capture (HARC) mechanism, provides a valuable alternative to conventional N-alkylation. This visible-light-induced, copper-catalyzed protocol is successful for coupling >10 classes of N-nucleophiles with diverse primary, secondary, or tertiary alkyl bromides. Moreover, this open-shell platform alleviates outstanding N-alkylation challenges regarding regioselectivity, direct cyclopropylation, and secondary alkyl chloride functionalization.

Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are compounds that have the general formula CnH2nOn Because CnH2nOn can also be written Cn(H2O)n, they appear to be “hydrates of carbon” Carbohydrates are also called “sugars” or “saccharides” Carbohydrates can be either aldoses (ald is for aldehyde and ose means a carbohydrate) or ketoses (ket is for ketone) OH OH O OH CH2OH CH2OH OHC HOH2C OH OH OH OH An Aldose A Ketose (D-Glucose) (D-Fructose) Carbohydrates Due to the multiple chiral centers along a linear carbon chain for carbohydrates, Emil Fischer developed the “Fischer Projection” in order to represent these compounds Remember how to draw a Fischer projection: 1) View the linear carbon chain along the vertical axis (always place the more oxidized carbon [aldehyde in an aldose] towards the top) 2) The horizontal lines are coming out of the page toward the viewer 3) Will need to change the viewpoint for each carbon so the horizontal substituents are always pointing towards the viewer CHO OH OH H OH HO H CH2OH = OHC H OH OH OH H OH CH2OH Emil Fischer (1852-1919) Carbohydrates The aldoses are thus all related by having an aldehyde group at one end, a primary alcohol group at the other end, and the two ends connected by a series of H-C-OH groups CHO CHO CHO CHO CHO H OH H OH H OH H OH HO H CH2OH H OH H OH H OH HO H CH2OH H OH H OH HO H CH2OH H OH HO H CH2OH CH2OH Aldotriose Aldotetrose Aldopentose Aldohexose Aldohexose D-glyceraldehyde D-erythose D-ribose D-allose L-allose The D-aldoses are named according to glyceraldehyde, the D refers to the configurational
