  • Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just Like an Alkene, Benzene Has Clouds of  Electrons Above and Below Its Sigma Bond Framework
    Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just like an alkene, benzene has clouds of electrons above and below its sigma bond framework. Although the electrons are in a stable aromatic system, they are still available for reaction with strong electrophiles. This generates a carbocation which is resonance stabilized (but not aromatic). This cation is called a sigma complex because the electrophile is joined to the benzene ring through a new sigma bond. The sigma complex (also called an arenium ion) is not aromatic since it contains an sp3 carbon (which disrupts the required loop of p orbitals). Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page1 The loss of aromaticity required to form the sigma complex explains the highly endothermic nature of the first step. (That is why we require strong electrophiles for reaction). The sigma complex wishes to regain its aromaticity, and it may do so by either a reversal of the first step (i.e. regenerate the starting material) or by loss of the proton on the sp3 carbon (leading to a substitution product). When a reaction proceeds this way, it is electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are a wide variety of electrophiles that can be introduced into a benzene ring in this way, and so electrophilic aromatic substitution is a very important method for the synthesis of substituted aromatic compounds. Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page2 Bromination of Benzene Bromination follows the same general mechanism for the electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS). Bromine itself is not electrophilic enough to react with benzene. But the addition of a strong Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor), such as FeBr3, catalyses the reaction, and leads to the substitution product.

  • Activation of Pyridinium Salts for Electrophilic Acylation: a Method for Conversion of Pyridines Into 3-Acylpyridines
    Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds, Vol. 40, No. 6, 2004 ACTIVATION OF PYRIDINIUM SALTS FOR ELECTROPHILIC ACYLATION: A METHOD FOR CONVERSION OF PYRIDINES INTO 3-ACYLPYRIDINES A. Klapars1 and E. Vedejs2 Cyanide adducts of N-MOM pyridinium salts react with strong acylating reagents to provide 3-acyl-4- cyano-1,4-dihydropyridines that can be aromatized to 3-acylpyridines using ZnCl2 in refluxing ethanol. Keywords: dihydropyridines, pyridine acylation. Electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions of pyridines are extraordinarily challenging. Instead of C-substitution at the pyridine ring, the electrophile typically forms an adduct with the pyridine nitrogen, which even further deactivates the already electron deficient pyridine ring toward electrophilic substitution. For example, the direct nitration of pyridine may require a reaction temperature of 330°C to provide only a 15% yield of 3-nitropyridine [1]. To the best of our knowledge, no direct, intermolecular C-acylations of pyridines have been reported [2]. This seriously limits the choice of methods for the preparation of the ubiquitous 3-substituted pyridines [3, 4]. In a limited number of cases, the lack of reactivity of pyridines toward electrophiles has been addressed by converting the recalcitrant pyridine into a temporarily activated 1,4-dihydropyridine [5-9]. In contrast to the electron poor parent pyridine, the electron rich 1,4-dihydropyridine features strongly enhanced reactivity toward electrophiles at the 3-position. Several steps are typically required including formation of the dihydropyridine, the subsequent reaction with an electrophile, and rearomatization to the desired 3-substituted pyridine. A similar concept has been ingeniously employed in a one pot nitration of pyridines in the presence of sulfite as the nucleophile that temporarily activates the pyridine, and then acts as a leaving group in an aromatization step [10, 11].

  • 1. A. the First Reaction Is a Friedel-Crafts Acylation (FCA), Where the Major Product Is the Para- Isomer (60% Isolated Yield)
    1. a. The first reaction is a Friedel-Crafts Acylation (FCA), where the major product is the para- isomer (60% isolated yield). The second reaction is a nitration, where the incoming electrophile (nitronium ion) is directed to the ortho position of the methoxy group. The last reaction is a Wolff-Kishner reduction that converts the acetyl group into an ethyl group. The nitro group does not react under these conditions.

Tetrahydrofuran is a fairly strong Lewis base, which would react and deactivate the AlCl3 catalyst. Ethanol would also react with AlCl3 and form alcoholates, which are inactive at FCA catalyst. Dichloromethane is polar enough to dissolve all three compounds but does not form adducts with AlCl3. Thus, aluminum chloride maintains its Lewis acidity. 3+ c. As discussed in lecture, AlCl3*6 H2O is not suitable as catalyst because the Al is not a strong Lewis acid anymore. In addition, larger amounts of water would destroy the acetyl chloride as well (=hydrolysis, CH3COCl + H2O ---- > CH3COOH + HCl). Consequently, the reaction would not proceed in the desired fashion. 3+ OH2 H2O OH2 Al H2O OH2 OH2 d.

Pericosines show significant in vitro cytotoxicity against P388 lymphocytic leukemia cells. Pericosine A, in particular, shows the most potent activity and significant in vivo antitumor activity against P388 cells. Thus, pericosines are promising candidates for seed compounds of anticancer drugs. However, before the total syntheses of pericosines were accomplished, their stereo structures could not be determined by spectral analyses because they have multi- functionalized cyclohexenoid structures with torsional strain. In this review, synthetic efforts for pericosines in this decade are surveyed. Keywords: marine natural product, antitumor, pericosine, structure determination, total synthesis, carbasugar 1. Introduction Synthetic studies of carbasugars have been progressing on a worldwide scale [1-3]. Carbasugars are a class of carbocyclic analogues of monosaccharides in which oxygen atom in the ring is replaced with a carbon atom. Because of this, they are also called pseudo-sugars. Carbasugars exhibit gycosidase inhibitory, antitumor (including anticancer), antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial, and antimalarial activities.

Inadvertent N-terminal gluconoylation has been reported during expression of proteins with an N-terminal His tag. Here we report the development of this side-reaction into a general method for highly selective N-terminal acylation of proteins to introduce functional groups. We identify an optimized N-terminal sequence, GHHHn− for the reaction with gluconolactone and 4-methoxyphenyl esters as acylating agents, facilitating the introduction of functionalities in a highly selective and efficient manner. Azides, biotin or a fluorophore are introduced at the N-termini of four unrelated proteins by effective and selective acylation with the 4-methoxyphenyl esters. This Gly-Hisn tag adds the unique capability for highly selective N-terminal chemical acylation of expressed proteins. We anticipate that it can find wide application in chemical biology and for biopharmaceuticals. 1 Department of Chemistry, University of Copenhagen, Thorvaldsensvej 40, 1871 Frederiksberg, Denmark. 2 Biomolecular Nanoscale Engineering Center, University of Copenhagen, Thorvaldsensvej 40, 1871 Frederiksberg, Denmark. 3 Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 5, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark.

  • Nucleophilic Dearomatization of Activated Pyridines
    Review Nucleophilic Dearomatization of Activated Pyridines Giulio Bertuzzi *, Luca Bernardi * and Mariafrancesca Fochi * Department of Industrial Chemistry “Toso Montanari” and INSTM RU Bologna, Alma Mater Studiorum-University of Bologna, Via Risorgimento 4, 40136 Bologna, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] (G.B.); [email protected] (L.B.); [email protected] (M.F.); Tel.: +39-051-209-3626 (M.F.) Received: 16 November 2018; Accepted: 1 December 2018; Published: 6 December 2018 Abstract: Amongst nitrogen heterocycles of different ring sizes and oxidation statuses, dihydropyridines (DHP) occupy a prominent role due to their synthetic versatility and occurrence in medicinally relevant compounds. One of the most straightforward synthetic approaches to polysubstituted DHP derivatives is provided by nucleophilic dearomatization of readily assembled pyridines. In this article, we collect and summarize nucleophilic dearomatization reactions of - pyridines reported in the literature between 2010 and mid-2018, complementing and updating previous reviews published in the early 2010s dedicated to various aspects of pyridine chemistry. Since functionalization of the pyridine nitrogen, rendering a (transient) pyridinium ion, is usually required to render the pyridine nucleus sufficiently electrophilic to suffer the attack of a nucleophile, the material is organized according to the type of N-functionalization. A variety of nucleophilic species (organometallic reagents, enolates, heteroaromatics, umpoled aldehydes) can be productively engaged in pyridine dearomatization reactions, including catalytic asymmetric implementations, providing useful and efficient synthetic platforms to (enantioenriched) DHPs. Conversely, pyridine nitrogen functionalization can also lead to pyridinium ylides. These dipolar species can undergo a variety of dipolar cycloaddition reactions with electron-poor dipolarophiles, affording polycyclic frameworks and embedding a DHP moiety in their structures.

Overman,' and Garry Pairaudeau Department of Chemistry University of California Imine, California 9271 7-2025 Received July 8, 1993 OTlPS Strychnine (1) has played a vital role in the development of d h,i natural productschemistry. First isolated in 1818 fromstrychnos ignatii by Pelletier and Caventou, strychnine was among the first plant alkaloids obtained in pure form. After decades of inves- OBU' (-)-Strychnine(1) tigation, the structural elucidation of strychnine in 1946 repre- sented one of the crowning accomplishments of classical structural chemistry.394 Its total synthesis by Woodward only 8 years later was an achievement of even greater significance, since prior to this feat no compound approaching the complexity of strychnine ,oms had been prepared by chemical synthesis.* That strychnine's P' seven rings displayed on only 24 skeletal atoms still represents a formidable challenge for total synthesis is apparent in the fact that only last year was a second total synthesis of strychnine published by Magnus and co-workers.6 This synthesis, like the pioneering Woodward synthesis, involved intersection with an intermediate available by degradation of stry~hnine.~.~Most recently, two syntheses of (*)-strychnine have been communicated by the groups of Stork' and Kuehne.* Herein we report the first asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-strychnine. This highly efficient total synthesis features the use of the cationic aza-Cope-Mannich reaction to assemble the pentacyclic strychnan c~re.~J~ The preparation in enantiopure form of the unsaturated azabicyclo[3.2.
