Inherently Chiral Calixarenes; Methodology and Applications Inherently chiral calixarenes; methodology and applications by Dominic Christian Castell Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy at Stellenbosch University Department of Chemistry and Polymer Science Faculty of Science Supervisor: Dr. G. E. Arnott Date: August 2016 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly stated otherwise) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. ______________________ Signature ______________________ Name in full ______/_____/__________ Date Copyright © 2016 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract The use of chiral directing groups has provided an efficient route to meta-functionalised inherently chiral calixarenes. Previously reported ortholithiation methods, incorporating chiral oxazolines have been reexamined, with the aim of revising the individual roles of the three major components of the reaction. The potential mechanistic ramifications of the solvent, additive and alkyllithium structure on the reaction outcomes were individually evaluated. The overarching complexity inherent in this chemistry, coupled with a wide scope of experimental results, point to a number of substrate, solvent and also reagent dependent reaction mechanisms. In addition to the oxazolines, the tert-butyl sulfoxide functional group has also been established as an effective chiral auxiliary for this ortholithiation strategy, yielding enriched diastereomeric mixtures of inherently chiral sulfoxide calixarenes. The absolute stereochemistry of these major and minor products were determined crystallographically. Despite restrictions in electrophile choice, an efficient desulfurization method afforded a route to a new class of meta-functionalised inherently chiral compounds. With the view to evaluating the potential of inherent chirality, oxazoline-directed ortholithiation methods were used to synthesize a new class of inherently chiral phosphine oxazoline ligands. The results from the application studies of these compounds, to both the Tsuji-Trost allylation and asymmetric Suzuki coupling reactions, suggested a definitive relationship between the configurations of the inherent chirality of the calixarene, and central chirality of the oxazoline auxiliary. A model of the -allyl palladium intermediate responsible for the enantioselection seen in the Tsuji-Trost reaction has been proposed for these calixarene ligands. The model was constructed using previously reported calixarene crystallographic data, in conjunction with numerous solid-state and computational studies of simpler Phox ligand systems. The experimental results obtained for this reaction were found to be in good correlation with the proposed model for the inherently chiral calixarene ligands. To confirm these observations, two additional inherently chiral Phox ligands, lacking a stereocenter on the oxazoline, were synthesized. Their preliminary application to the Tsuji-Trost allylation also yielded enantiomerically enriched product mixtures. These results point to a significant contribution made by the inherent chirality, toward the overall asymmetric induction observed in the reaction. These findings serve as a positive affirmation of the viability of inherently chiral calixarenes in the field of asymmetric catalysis, and create a platform for further development of new ligands containing this structural property. ii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Opsomming Die gebruik van chirale regie groepe verskaf ‘n doeltreffende roete tot meta-gefunksionaliseerde inherente chirale calixarene. Ortolitiëring metodes wat chirale oksasoliene inkorporeer, waarop daar voorheen verslag gelewer is, is weer ondersoek. Hierdie ondersoek is onderneem om die individuele rolle van die drie hoofkomponente van die reaksie te hersien. Die potensiële meganistiese effek van die oplosmiddel, ligande, en alkiellitiumstruktuur op die reaksie uitkomstes (not sure about uitkomstes, maybe produkte?), is individueel ondersoek. Die oorkoepelende inherente kompleksiteit van hierdie chemie, tesame met die breë omvang van die eksperimentele resultate, dui daarop dat daar ‘n hele paar substraat-, oplosmiddel-, en reagensafhanklike reaksiemeganismes teenwoordig is. Tersiêre-butielsulfoksied funksionele groepe is ook bevestig as ‘n effektiewe chirale hulpsgroep vir hierdie ortolitiasiestrategie, wat ‘n opbrengs van verrykde diastereomeriese mengsels van inherente chirale sulfoksied calixerene lewer. Die absolute stereochemie van die hoof- en byprodukte is bepaal deur die gebruik van kristallografie. Ten spyte van beperkte keuse van elektrofiele, is ‘n doeltreffende ontswawelingsmetode gebruik om ‘n nuwe klas van meta-gefunksionaliseerde inherent chirale molekule te produseer. Oksasolien-gerigte ortolitiasie metodes is gebruik om ‘n reeks nuwe inherente chirale fosfiene ligande te sintetiseer, en om sodoende die potensiaal van inherente chiraliteit te evalueer. Die resultate van die toepassingstudies van hierdie molekules op beide die Tsuji-Trost allilering en die asimetriese Suzuki koppelingsreaksies, dui op ‘n definitiewe verhouding tussen die konfigurasie van die inherente chiraliteit van die calixareen en die sentrale chiraliteit van die oksasoliene hulpgroep. ‘n Hipotetiese model van die - alliel palladium intermediêr wat verantwoordelik is vir die enantiomeer seleksie wat tydens Tsuji-Trost reaksie waargeneem word, is vir die calixareen ligande voorgestel. Die model is gebou deur die gebruik van voorheen gerapporteerde kristallografiese data, talle vastetoestand studies en berekeningsstudies van eenvoudige fosfienoksasolienligandsisteme. Die eksperimentele resultate wat vir hierdie reaksie verkry is, het goed gekorreleer met die voorgestelde model vir die inherente chirale calixareen ligande. Twee addisionele inherent chirale fosfienoksasolienligande waar die stereosentrum op die oksasolien ontbreek, is gesintetiseer om hierdie waarnemings te bevestig. Hul voorlopige toepassing op die Tsuji-Trost allilasie het ook enantiomeriese verrykde produkmengsels opgelewer. Hierdie resultate dui op ‘n betekenisvolle bydrae deur die inherente chiraliteit tot die algehele asimetriese induksie wat in die reaksie waargeneem word. Hierdie bevindinge dien as ‘n positiewe bevestiging van die moontlike sukses van inherente chirale calixarene in die gebied van asimetriese katalise, en skep ‘n fondasie waarop verdere ontwikkeling gedoen kan word van nuwe ligande wat hierdie strukturele eienskap besit. iii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Acknowledgements First on my list of thanks are my parents, who have never let me down and given me more than I could ever return.

The most prevalent way to alter enzyme activity in terms ofre- gioselectivity and stereoselectivity for both industry and fundamental research is to engineer the enzyme. In a recent article by Keinanen¨ et al., published in Bioscience Reports 2018, ‘Controlling the regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of FAD-dependent polyamine oxidases with the use of amine-attached guide molecules as conformational modulators’, an inverse approach was presented that focuses on the manipulation of the enzyme substrate rather than the enzyme. This approach not only uncovered dormant enantioselectivity in related enzymes but allowed for its control by the use of guide molecules simply added to the re- action solution or covalently linked to an achiral scaffold molecule. In this study, flavo-enzymes that catalyse reactions involved in polyamine metabolism were investi- gated, namely human acetylpolyamine oxidase (APAO), human spermine oxidase (SMOX) and yeast polyamine oxidase (Fms1) [1]. Malfunction in polyamine metabolism is implicated in diseases such as cancer and diabetes [1]; also, it differs between bacteria, parasites and the host organism identifying it asapossibletargetpathwayfornoveldrugs[2].Itisthereforeusefulandworthwhiletostudythemech- anism of these enzymes.

  • Arenes with Planar Chirality: Two New Entries to the Family
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2014; 86(11): 1819–1828 Conference paper José V. Prata*, Patrícia D. Barata and Gennaro Pescitelli Inherently chiral calix[4]arenes with planar chirality: two new entries to the family Abstract: The synthesis of two new inherently chiral calix[4]arenes (ICCs, 1 and 2), endowed with elec- tron-rich concave surfaces, has been achieved through the desymmetrization of a lower rim distal-bridged oxacyclophane (OCP) macrocycle. The new highly emissive ICCs were resolved by chiral HPLC, and the enan- tiomeric nature of the isolated antipodes proved by electronic circular dichroism (CD). Using time-dependent density functional calculations of CD spectra, their absolute configurations were established. NMR studies with (S)-Pirkle’s alcohol unequivocally showed that the host-guest interactions occur in the chiral pocket comprehending the calix-OCP exo cavities and the carbazole moieties.

DOI 10.1515/pac-2014-0707 Introduction Calixarenes are widely recognized as one of the most useful classes of synthetic molecular receptors [1, 2]. Endowed with the capability of recognizing neutral molecules, metal and molecular cations, and anions, calixarenes have been extensively used as building blocks in the construction of countless three-dimensional hosts for applications in various fields [1–3]. Calix[4]arene compounds in particular, due to their bowl-shaped intramolecular cavities in a cone conformation, are known to selectively interact with structurally comple- mentary molecular species in fluid phase and solid state, once structural rigidification and proper function- alization of the basic calixarene skeleton has been accomplished.

Many approaches have been proposed, but unfortunately however most of them suffer from some drawback, like complex preparation, high cost and/or lack of robustness...., but above all, in most cases, they result in current differences between the two enantiomer of chiral probes, while a difference in peak potentials would be the desirable feature for enantiorecognition purposes.[1,2] In this context, we have recently reported the outstanding performances of "inherently chiral" electrodes prepared by fast and reproducible electrodeposition of a thin film of thiophene-based oligomers from "inherently chiral" monomers S like BT2T4 (right) [3-6]. "Inherent chirality" implies that chirality S S and key functional properties originate from the same structural element; in the cited monomer cases, this is obtained by a tailored S S torsion in the conjugated electroactive system, with an energy barrier too high to be overcome at room T, so that the monomer S exists in two stable enantiomers.

Enantiomers differ considerably in their physiological reactions with the human body. Safeguarding the quality and safety of drugs requires an efficient analytical platform by which to selectively probe chiral compounds to ensure the extraction of single enantiomers. Asymmetric synthesis is a mature approach to the production of single enantiomers; however, it is poorly suited to mass production and allows for only specific enantioselective reactions. Furthermore, it is too expensive and time-consuming for the evaluation of therapeutic drugs in the early stages of development.
