Course CHEM 2323.HN1 Organic Chemistry I Professor Michael Biewer Term Fall 2015 Meetings T/R 8:30-9:45 AM, ATC 2.101 Course CHEM 2323.HN1 Organic Chemistry I Professor Michael Biewer Term Fall 2015 Meetings T/R 8:30-9:45 AM, ATC 2.101 Professor’s Contact Information Office Phone 972-883-2811 Office Location BE 3.326 Email Address [email protected] Office Hours T/R 1-2 General Course Information Pre-requisites, Co-requisites, & CHEM 1312 General Chemistry II other restrictions This course is designed to provide a unified overview of fundamental organic chemistry for science majors. Students who successfully complete this course acquire an integrated understanding of molecular architecture, molecular transformations, reaction energetics and mechanisms, synthetic strategy, and structure determination. Tests will be given on the dates given in the syllabus during class time. There will be three quizzes given on the days indicated in the syllabus. You are allowed to drop your lowest quiz score. Students often view organic chemistry as a difficult course. I strongly recommend Course that everyone attempt to keep up with the class as it proceeds. This is not a course Description where it is easy to ‘cram’ for a test. Students invariably do better once they learn how to visualize organic molecules, and reactions, in three dimensions. If you know this is a problem I recommend using molecular models to try and view the molecules. Also try to realize that this is not a memorization course. While some memorization is unavoidable, the purpose of this course is to teach everyone the underlying basic principles that drive an organic reaction. Once these principles are handled a student will be able to understand, and predict, why any reaction occurs. The course notes used during lectures can be downloaded as pdf files from www.utdallas.edu/~biewerm. (Go to CHEM 2323 HONORS link under teaching section). Upon completing this class, students will: • Be able to predict bonding and three-dimensional structure, including chiralty, and Learning to analyze properties of this 3-D structure of organic compounds. Outcomes • Be able to compare reactivity amongst a series of organic compounds. • Be able to predict reactivity of specific functional groups and to construct simple and efficient routes for the preparation of desired organic compounds.

Published 2012 by Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. j3 1 Introduction – Principles and Historical Landmarks of Enzyme Catalysis in Organic Synthesis Harald Gr€oger and Yasuhisa Asano 1.1 General Remarks Enzyme catalysis in organic synthesis – behind this term stands a technology that today is widely recognized as a first choice opportunity in the preparation of a wide range of chemical compounds. Notably, this is true not only for academic syntheses but also for industrial-scale applications [1]. For numerous molecules the synthetic routes based on enzyme catalysis have turned out to be competitive (and often superior!) compared with classic chemicalaswellaschemocatalyticsynthetic approaches. Thus, enzymatic catalysis is increasingly recognized by organic chemists in both academia and industry as an attractive synthetic tool besides the traditional organic disciplines such as classic synthesis, metal catalysis, and organocatalysis [2]. By means of enzymes a broad range of transformations relevant in organic chemistry can be catalyzed, including, for example, redox reactions, carbon–carbon bond forming reactions, and hydrolytic reactions. Nonetheless, for a long time enzyme catalysis was not realized as a first choice option in organic synthesis. Organic chemists did not use enzymes as catalysts for their envisioned syntheses because of observed (or assumed) disadvantages such as narrow substrate range, limited stability of enzymes under organic reaction conditions, low efficiency when using wild-type strains, and diluted substrate and product solutions, thus leading to non-satisfactory volumetric productivities.

Abstract: In this review, we present an assessment of recent advances in alkyne functionalization reactions, classified according to different classes of recyclable catalysts. In this work, we have in- corporated and reviewed the activity and selectivity of recyclable catalytic systems such as polysiloxane- encapsulated novel metal nanoparticle-based catalysts, silica–copper-supported nanocatalysts, graphitic carbon-supported nanocatalysts, metal organic framework (MOF) catalysts, porous organic frame- work (POP) catalysts, bio-material-supported catalysts, and metal/solvent free recyclable catalysts. In addition, several alkyne functionalization reactions have been elucidated to demonstrate the success and efficiency of recyclable catalysts. In addition, this review also provides the fundamental knowl- edge required for utilization of green catalysts, which can combine the advantageous features of both homogeneous (catalyst modulation) and heterogeneous (catalyst recycling) catalysis.

  • Bio-Organic Mechanism Game – Simplistic Biochemical Structures and Simplistic Organic Reaction Mechanisms Are Used to Explain Common Biochemical Transformations
    1 Bio-Organic Mechanism Game – Simplistic biochemical structures and simplistic organic reaction mechanisms are used to explain common biochemical transformations. Simplified biochemical molecules are presented first. Many biomolecules have a somewhat complex structure that makes it difficult to write out step by step mechanisms. However, if we simplify those structures to the essential parts necessary to explain the mechanistic chemistry of each step, it becomes much easier to consider each step through an important cycle. I have proposed possible simplified structures that are used in the later examples of biochem cycles and problems. The usual strategy in biochem cycles is to just write names, or perhaps, names and a structure. Occasionally a few mechanistic steps are suggested, but almost never is a detailed sequence of mechanistic steps provided. Since it is hard to find such detailed mechanistic steps anywhere (sometimes they are not known) our proposed steps are, of necessity, somewhat speculative. In this book we are not looking for perfection, which is not possible, but for sound organic logic that is consistent with the biochemical examples presented below. There is great satisfaction in blending organic knowledge with real life reactions that help explain how life works. In working through some of the problems, you may develop an alternative mechanism that is just as good, or even better than the one I have proposed. If you do, I hope you will share it with me and if an improved version of this book ever gets written I can include it the next edition (and give you credit). It is almost certain that I have made some errors and I would appreciate it if you would let me know about them.

Perspective pubs.acs.org/joc Photoredox Catalysis in Organic Chemistry Megan H. Shaw, Jack Twilton, and David W. C. MacMillan* Merck Center for Catalysis at Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey 08544, United States ABSTRACT: In recent years, photoredox catalysis has come to the forefront in organic chemistry as a powerful strategy for the activation of small molecules. In a general sense, these approaches rely on the ability of metal complexes and organic dyes to convert visible light into chemical energy by engaging in single-electron transfer with organic substrates, thereby generating reactive intermediates. In this Perspective, we highlight the unique ability of photoredox catalysis to expedite the development of completely new reaction mechanisms, with particular emphasis placed on multicatalytic strategies that enable the construction of challenging carbon−carbon and carbon− heteroatom bonds. ■ INTRODUCTION this catalytic platform to organic synthesis begun to be fully Over the last century, the discovery, development, and use of realized. A key factor in the recent yet rapid growth of this activation platform has been the recognition that readily light-mediated catalysis has enabled the invention of a wide accessible metal polypyridyl complexes and organic dyes can variety of nontraditional bond constructions in organic facilitate the conversion

Received: 2 August 2017; Accepted: 2 September 2017; Published: 7 September 2017 Abstract: Cyclodextrins are well-known macrocyclic oligosaccharides that consist of α-(1,4) linked glucose units and have been widely used as artificial enzymes, chiral separators, chemical sensors, and drug excipients, owing to their hydrophobic and chiral interiors. Due to their remarkable inclusion capabilities with small organic molecules, more recent interests focus on organic reactions catalyzed by cyclodextrins. This contribution outlines the current progress in cyclodextrin-catalyzed organic reactions. Particular emphases are given to the organic reaction mechanisms and their applications. In the end, the future directions of research in this field are proposed. Keywords: cyclodextrin; catalysis; mechanism; green chemistry; organic reaction; asymmetric reaction 1. Introduction Supramolecular chemistry is defined as the chemistry of the intermolecular bond, and focuses on the chemical systems made up of a discrete number of assembled molecular subunits or components. It aims at developing highly complex chemical systems from molecular components reversibly held together by non-covalent intermolecular forces [1,2].
