Hooley, Chairperson The Cope rearrangement has been used as the key step of many natural product syntheses but to date there is only one limited example in the literature that is capable of performing a catalytic, asymmetric variant of this reaction. The first half of this dissertation focuses on our efforts towards performing a catalytic asymmetric Cope rearrangement to access remote stereocenters. The rearrangement of 2-formyl-1,5-dienes was achieved with both Brønsted and Lewis acid catalysts. The best Lewis acid catalyst was determined to be AuCl3. As there are no examples of asymmetric Au(III) catalysis, we designed and synthesized bis-α-chiral dipyrromethanes as potential new ligands for organometallic asymmetric Cope rearrangements. This work also focuses on the design and synthesis of functionalized deep cavitands for use as biomimetic C-H oxidation catalysts. Enzymes are capable of performing site-selective oxidations by incorporating substrates in their binding pockets and selectively oxidizing the C-H bond closest in proximity to the active site of the enzyme. Cavitands are capable of selectively binding guests of the appropriate size and v shape, much like enzymes. Specifically, this work involves the synthesis of cavitands that contain deep cavities with functionalized rims that possess the ability to complex to metals such as iron or copper. These deep functionalized cavitands were found to be capable of binding amines and other small guests as well as performing unprecedented anion binding. Metal coordination was also achieved at the rims of the cavitand making these metallobound cavitands potential enzymes mimics by binding a guest in their cavities and selectively oxidizing the groups closest in proximity to the catalytic sites, i.e. the metal bound rims. vi Table of Contents Abstract

Reducing energy consumption and emissions is a continuous challenge for the asphalt industry. Previous studies have focused on the reduction of emissions without characterizing their composition, and detailed characterization of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in asphalt fumes is scarce. This communication describes the characterization and evaluation of VOCs and SVOCs from asphalt mixtures prepared at lower production temperatures using natural zeolite; in some cases, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) was used.

Dean Toste*b Received 30th April 2012, Accepted 7th June 2012 DOI: 10.1039/c2sc20542d This review describes important recent advancements in asymmetric cycloisomerization reactions. A wide variety of catalytic and asymmetric strategies have been applied to these reactions over the past twenty years. Cycloisomerization reactions have the ability to produce diverse polycyclic compounds in excellent yields and selectivity. They constitute a powerful and efficient strategy for asymmetric carbon- carbon bond formation in cyclic compounds. Enyne and related olefin cyclizations comprise the majority of reactions of this type and important advances have recently occurred in this area. However, significant changes have also occurred in the area of classical cyclization as well as intramolecular hydroacylation and C–H activation initiated cyclization and these will also be described. 1 Introduction The purpose of this review is to describe important new advances in asymmetric cycloisomerization reactions. In partic- The synthesis of rings is central to the art of organic synthesis. ular, this review will focus on enantioselective carbon-carbon Cyclic compounds abound in chemistry, from strained three bond forming cycloisomerizations.

  • Elimination Reactions Are Described

    Elimination Reactions Are Described

    Introduction In this module, different types of elimination reactions are described. From a practical standpoint, elimination reactions widely used for the generation of double and triple bonds in compounds from a saturated precursor molecule. The presence of a good leaving group is a prerequisite in most elimination reactions. Traditional classification of elimination reactions, in terms of the molecularity of the reaction is employed. How the changes in the nature of the substrate as well as reaction conditions affect the mechanism of elimination are subsequently discussed. The stereochemical requirements for elimination in a given substrate and its consequence in the product stereochemistry is emphasized. ELIMINATION REACTIONS Objective and Outline beta-eliminations E1, E2 and E1cB mechanisms Stereochemical considerations of these reactions Examples of E1, E2 and E1cB reactions Alpha eliminations and generation of carbene I. Basics Elimination reactions involve the loss of fragments or groups from a molecule to generate multiple bonds. A generalized equation is shown below for 1,2-elimination wherein the X and Y from two adjacent carbon atoms are removed, elimination C C C C -XY X Y Three major types of elimination reactions are: α-elimination: two atoms or groups are removed from the same atom. It is also known as 1,1-elimination. H R R C X C + HX R Both H and X are removed from carbon atom here R Carbene β-elimination: loss of atoms or groups on adjacent atoms. It is also H H known as 1,2- elimination. R C C R R HC CH R X H γ-elimination: loss of atoms or groups from the 1st and 3rd positions as shown below.

Cee Contribution from the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, HarVard UniVersity, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 ReceiVed June 29, 2000 Abstract: The synthesis of phorboxazole B has been accomplished in 27 linear steps and an overall yield of 12.6%. The absolute stereochemistry of the C4-C12,C33-C38, and C13-C19 fragments was established utilizing catalytic asymmetric aldol methodology, while the absolute stereochemistry of the C20-C32 fragment was derived from an auxiliary-based asymmetric aldol reaction. All remaining chirality was incorporated through internal asymmetric induction, with the exception of the C43 stereocenter which was derived from (R)-trityl glycidol. Key fragment couplings include a stereoselective double stereodifferentiating aldol reaction, a metalated oxazole alkylation, an oxazole-stabilized Wittig olefination, and a chelation-controlled addition of the fully elaborated alkenyl metal side chain.

Wittig Olefination: Background and Principles Stereoselectivity with non-stabilized ylides Me OMe Me Ph3P Ph3P Ph3P Me Ph3P Ph3P Not stable; must be made in situ and used immediately Wittig Olefination: Background and Principles Stereoselectivity with non-stabilized ylides Me OMe Me Ph3P Ph3P Ph3P Me Ph3P Ph3P Not stable; must be made in situ and used immediately Addition to carbonyl is an irreversible and concerted [2+2] cycloaddition such that the R groups on the aldehyde and the ylide are as far apart as possible PPh3 Ph3P O H H H O + Me Me Ph3P R O R H -[Ph3P=O] As the size of the R groups increases, selectivity for Z-alkene increases Me Nonpolar solvents favor initial addition Polar solvents favor the elimination Z-alkene Wittig Olefination: Background and Principles Stereoselectivity with stabilized ylides Me O O Ph P Ph3P 3 Ph3P Me OEt semistabilized Incredibly stable; not moisture sensitive, can be chromatographed Price for stability is lower reactivity: reacts well with aldehydes, slowly with ketones Wittig Olefination: Background and Principles Stereoselectivity with stabilized ylides Me O O Ph P Ph3P 3 Ph3P Me OEt semistabilized Incredibly stable; not moisture sensitive, can be chromatographed Price for stability is lower reactivity: reacts well with aldehydes, slowly with ketones Initial addition to carbonyl is reversible so the thermodynamic elimination product results.
