However, before reacting with water, these aminonitriles can be trapped by aminothiols, such as cysteine or homocysteine, to give 5- or 6-membered ring heterocycles, which in turn are hydrolyzed to dipeptides. We propose that this two-step process enabled the formation of thiol-containing dipeptides in the primitive ocean. These small peptides are able to promote the formation of other peptide bonds and of heterocyclic molecules. Theoretical calculations support our experimental results. They predict that α-aminonitriles should be more reactive than other nitriles, and that imidazoles should be formed from transiently formed amidinonitriles. Overall, this set of reactions delineates a possible early stage of the development of organic chemistry, hence of life, on Earth dominated by nitriles and thiol-rich peptides (TRP).

In this context, Ti offers opportunities that are complementary to late transition metals for reaction discovery. Following foundational work on epoxide reductive functionalization, recent methodological advances have significantly expanded the repertoire of Ti radical chemistry. This Synopsis summarizes recent developments in the burgeoning area of Ti radical catalysis with a focus on innovative catalytic strategies such as radical redox-relay and dual catalysis. 1.

  • Hydrogen Atom Transfer-Mediated Cyclisations of Nitriles
    Hydrogen Atom Transfer-Mediated Cyclisations of Nitriles Oliver J. Turner,*[a,b] John A. Murphy,*[b] David. J. Hirst[a] and Eric P. A. Talbot*[a]† Abstract: Hydrogen atom transfer-mediated intramolecular C-C coupling reactions between alkenes and nitriles, using PhSiH3 and catalytic Fe(acac)3, are described. This introduces a new strategic bond disconnection for ring-closing reactions, forming ketones via imine intermediates. Of note is the scope of the reaction, including formation of sterically hindered ketones, spirocycles and fused cyclic systems. In the early 1960s, Kwiatek and Seyler first reported the use of metal hydrides as catalysts in the hydrogenation of α,β- unsaturated compounds.[1,2] The discovery by Halpern,[3] later elegantly developed by Norton,[4] that metal-hydride hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) proceeded by a free-radical mechanism opened the door to a wide range of alkene hydrofunctionalisation reactions. But it was the pioneering work by Mukaiyama[5] on the catalytic hydration of alkenes, using Co(acac)2 and oxygen, that sparked wider interest in the field of alkene hydrofunctionalisation. As a result, there now exists an extensive ‘toolkit’ for the addition of hydrogen and a functional group to an alkene with Markovnikov selectivity and high chemo-selectivity using cobalt, manganese and iron complexes.[6,7] Efforts have also been made to extend HAT methodologies to C-C bond formation, both in an intra- and intermolecular fashion: Baran’s group developed a general C-C coupling reaction, utilising electron-deficient alkenes as capable radical acceptors (Scheme 1ai).[8–10] Hydropyridylation of alkenes by intramolecular Minisci reaction was recently demonstrated by Starr,[11] which allows for the formation of structures such as Scheme 1.

Ansite 3, 4–6, 35011 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain; [email protected]; Tel.: +34-6-0956-5237 Abstract: Nitriles comprise a broad group of chemicals that are currently being industrially produced and used in fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals, as well as in bulk applications, polymer chemistry, solvents, etc. Aldoxime dehydratases catalyze the cyanide-free synthesis of nitriles starting from aldoximes under mild conditions, holding potential to become sustainable alternatives for industrial processes. Different aldoxime dehydratases accept a broad range of aldoximes with impressive high substrate loadings of up to >1 Kg L−1 and can efficiently catalyze the reaction in aqueous media as well as in non-aqueous systems, such as organic solvents and solvent-free (neat substrates). This paper provides an overview of the recent developments in this field with emphasis on strategies that may be of relevance for industry and sustainability. When possible, potential links to biorefineries and to the use of biogenic raw materials are discussed.

These conditions require the use of a sub-stoichiometric amount of amine (10% mol) for dianion generation and the previous activation of the epoxide with LiCl. Yields are good, with high regioselectivity, but the use of styrene oxide led, unexpectedly, to a mixture resulting from the attack on both the primary and secondary carbon atoms. Generally, a low diastereoselectivity is seen on attack at the primary center, however only one diastereoisomer was obtained from attack to the secondary carbon of the styrene oxide. Keywords: Lactones, lithium chloride, nucleophilic addition, regioselectivity, diastereoselectivity. Introduction Epoxides have been recognized among the most versatile compounds in organic synthesis, not only as final products [1] but as key intermediates for further manipulations. Accordingly, new synthetic developments are continuously being published [2]. Due to its high ring strain (around 27 Kcal/mol) its ring-opening, particularly with carbon-based nucleophiles, is a highly valuable synthetic strategy Molecules 2008, 13 1304 [3].

Wendt 2 1Department of Chemistry, Makerere University, P. O. Box 7062 Kampala, Uganda. 2Organic Chemistry, Department of Chemistry, Lund University, P. O. Box 124, 221 00 Lund, Sweden. Accepted 31 January, 2013 The catalytic epoxidation of olefins is an important reaction in chemical industry since epoxides are versatile and important intermediates in the synthesis of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The current epoxidation procedures often use stoichiometric organic and sometimes toxic inorganic oxidants that are less favourable from an environmental and economical point of view. In contrast to such processes, catalytic epoxidation processes employing H2O2 oxidant are preferred for green processing. Herein is reported a highly efficient green process for the epoxidation of olefins using H2O2 oxidant and modified silver polyoxometalate catalysts at 65°C. The preparation and activity of the catalysts are described. The method enjoys >90% conversion and ≥99% selectivity to the epoxide for a variety of cyclic and linear olefins including terminal ones. The catalysts are easily recovered by filtration and are reusable several times. Key words: Epoxidation, olefins, hydrogen peroxide, polyoxometalate, silver catalysts. INTRODUCTION The catalytic epoxidation of olefins is very important in compared to organic peroxides and peracids (Jones, the chemical industry since epoxides are versatile and 1999; Lane and Burgess, 2003).

  • Part I. the Total Synthesis Of
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Lester Percy Joseph Burton forthe degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry presentedon March 20, 1981. Title: Part 1 - The Total Synthesis of (±)-Cinnamodialand Related Drimane Sesquiterpenes Part 2 - Photochemical Activation ofthe Carboxyl Group Via NAcy1-2-thionothiazolidines Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy DT. James D. White Part I A total synthesis of the insect antifeedant(±)-cinnamodial ( ) and of the related drimanesesquiterpenes (±)-isodrimenin (67) and (±)-fragrolide (72)are described from the diene diester 49. Hydro- boration of 49 provided the C-6oxygenation and the trans ring junction in the form of alcohol 61. To confirm the stereoselectivity of the hydroboration, 61 was convertedto both (t)-isodrimenin (67) and (±)-fragrolide (72) in 3 steps. A diisobutylaluminum hydride reduction of 61 followed by a pyridiniumchlorochromate oxidation and treatment with lead tetraacetate yielded the dihydrodiacetoxyfuran102. The base induced elimination of acetic acid preceded theepoxidation and provided 106 which contains the desired hydroxy dialdehydefunctionality of cinnamodial in a protected form. The epoxide 106 was opened with methanol to yield the acetal 112. Reduction, hydrolysis and acetylation of 112 yielded (t)- cinnamodial in 19% overall yield. Part II - Various N- acyl- 2- thionothiazolidineswere prepared and photo- lysed in the presence of ethanol to provide the corresponding ethyl esters. The photochemical activation of the carboxyl function via these derivatives appears, for practical purposes, to be restricted tocases where a-keto hydrogen abstraction and subsequent ketene formation is favored by acyl substitution.

Read Full License Page 1/18 Abstract A novel strategy has been established to assemble an array of densely substituted pyridine derivatives from nitriles and o-substituted aryl alkynes or 1-methyl-1,3-enynes via a non-classical [4 + 2] cycloaddition along with 1,5-hydrogen shift process. The well-balanced anities of two different alkali metal salts enable the C(sp3)-H bond activation as well as the excellent chemo- and regioselectivities. This protocol offers a new guide to construct pyridine frameworks from nitriles with sp3-carbon pronucleophiles, and shows potential applications in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. Introduction Compounds containing pyridine core structures, not only widely exist in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and functional materials,1–7 but also serve as useful and valuable building blocks for metal ligands.8,9 For instance, pyridine derivative Actos I10 is a famous drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes; Bi-(or tri-)pyridines II11–15 are often used as ligands in metal-catalyzed reactions; Kv1.5 antagonist III16 and alkaloid papaverine IV17 are two representative isoquinolines as a promising atrial- selective agent and a smooth muscle relaxant, respectively (Fig.
