    POLYMETHYLENE PYRIDINES , A thesis submitted by David Robert Brittain in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OP PHILOSOPHY in the University of London Organic Chemistry Department, dune, 1965. Imperial College, LONDON, S.W.7. ABSTRACT This thesis describes a series of attempts to syn- thesise 2,5- and 1,4-polymethylene bridged pyridines. Nuclear magnetic resonance theory predicts that protons, which are held directly over an aromatic ring, will be abnormally shielded compared with protons in aliphatic straight-chain hydrocarbons. This prediction has been verified for the central methylene protons of paracyclo- phanes. The degree of shielding, expressed in terms of the distance from the aromatic ring, is a measure of the induced ring current and hence the aromaticity of the benzene ring. Similar measurements upon 2,5- or 1,4— polymethylene bridged pyridines would make it possible to determine the degree of aromaticity of the pyridine ring relative to benzene. A review of the subject of aromaticity is presented in which special reference has been made to its inter- pretation by nuclear magnetic resonance. The synthetic work has not been brougL.t to a truly satisfactory conclusion. However, the synthetic routes to 2,5-dialkylpyridines have been thoroughly investigated and a wide variety of such compounds prepared. The functional groups at the ends of the alkyl chains have been varied in an effort to produce a derivative which would cyclise to give a 2,5-bridged pyridine. The attempted intramolecular oxidative coupling of 2,5-dihex- 51 -ynylpyridine received much attention. In the attempts to obtain a 1,4-bridged pyridine, two tricyclic compounds, each containing two quaternised pyridine rings linked by polymethylene chains, were obtained.

Optimization of the previous synthetic route was successful. Synthesis of the key cc-diazo intermediate 30 was achieved and the construction of the carbocyclic frame was completed. Key reactions of the strategy involve a ring contraction via a Wolff rearrangement, and formation of the lactone 78 which undergoes diisobutylaluminum hydride reduction followed by acid catalyzed cyclization to the paeoniflorin ring system 80. A new synthetic strategy was initiated to prepare the key [3.2.1]bicyclooctanone 81 using a palladium mediated olefin cyclization of the acyloin substrate 82.

  • Syntheses of Morphine and Codeine (1992 – 2002): Templates for Exploration of Synthetic Tools

Dalton* Department of Chemistry (016-00), Beury Hall, 13th and Norris Streets, Temple University, Philadelphia, PA 19122, USA and Department of Chemistry, Arcadia University, Glenside, PA, 19038, USA Abstract: Morphine (1) and its O-methylated analogue codeine (2), analgesic alkaloids of the opium poppy (Papaver Somniferium), have been targets of organic chemists engaged in synthetic activities for at least half a century. The “first” (Gates) and “most efficient” (Rice) syntheses of morphine (1) and codeine (2) are well known and have been reviewed and analyzed extensively numerous times. However, syntheses of the same two alkaloids that have been reported since 1992 and which have been used as devices to advance the art of organic synthesis are not as widely recognized and they have not been as thoroughly reviewed. Here they are analyzed in the spirit of the use of these two compounds as templates. Further, since both racemic and enantiospecific syntheses are important and since all eight (8) approaches (since 1992) are sufficiently different so as to warrant more tha n superficial examination, they are all considered.

    molecules Review Advances in the Asymmetric Total Synthesis of Natural Products Using Chiral Secondary Amine Catalyzed Reactions of α,β-Unsaturated Aldehydes Zhonglei Wang 1,2 1 School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China; [email protected] 2 School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Qufu Normal University, Qufu 273165, China Academic Editor: Ari Koskinen Received: 12 August 2019; Accepted: 19 September 2019; Published: 19 September 2019 Abstract: Chirality is one of the most important attributes for its presence in a vast majority of bioactive natural products and pharmaceuticals. Asymmetric organocatalysis methods have emerged as a powerful methodology for the construction of highly enantioenriched structural skeletons of the target molecules. Due to their extensive application of organocatalysis in the total synthesis of bioactive molecules and some of them have been used in the industrial synthesis of drugs have attracted increasing interests from chemists. Among the chiral organocatalysts, chiral secondary amines (MacMillan’s catalyst and Jorgensen’s catalyst) have been especially considered attractive strategies because of their impressive efficiency. Herein, we outline advances in the asymmetric total synthesis of natural products and relevant drugs by using the strategy of chiral secondary amine catalyzed reactions of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes in the last eighteen years. Keywords: bioactive natural products; pharmaceuticals; asymmetric total synthesis; chiral secondary amines; α,β-unsaturated aldehydes 1. Introduction In 2000, the MacMillan group [1] first described the fundamental concept of LUMO-lowering iminium-ion activation. In 2005, the Jørgensen group [2,3] reported diarylprolinol silyl ether catalysts, which have also been used in iminium-ion catalysis.

  • An Umpolung Strategy to React Catalytic Enols with Nucleophiles
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13175-5 OPEN An umpolung strategy to react catalytic enols with nucleophiles Amparo Sanz-Marco 1, Samuel Martinez-Erro 1, Martin Pauze 1,2, Enrique Gómez-Bengoa 2 & Belén Martín-Matute 1* The selective synthesis of α-functionalized ketones with two similar enolizable positions can be accomplished using allylic alcohols and iridium(III) catalysts. A formal 1,3-hydrogen shift 1234567890():,; on allylic alcohols generates catalytic iridium-enolates in a stereospecific manner, which are able to react with electrophiles to yield α-functionalized ketones as single constitutional isomers. However, the employment of nucleophiles to react with the nucleophilic catalytic enolates in this chemistry is still unknown. Herein, we report an umpolung strategy for the selective synthesis of α-alkoxy carbonyl compounds by the reaction of iridium enolates and alcohols promoted by an iodine(III) reagent. Moreover, the protocol also works in an intra- molecular fashion to synthesize 3(2H)-furanones from γ-keto allylic alcohols. Experimental and computational investigations have been carried out, and mechanisms are proposed for both the inter- and intramolecular reactions, explaining the key role of the iodine(III) reagent in this umpolung approach. 1 Department of Organic Chemistry, Stockholm University, Stockholm SE-10691, Sweden. 2 Departamento de Química Orgánica I, Universidad del País Vasco/UPV-EHU, Manuel de Lardizabal 3, Donostia – San Sebastián 20018, Spain. *email: [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2019) 10:5244 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13175-5 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13175-5 mpolung reactions represent a powerful approach for the halogen and oxygen-based electrophilic species.

Although numerous stoichiometric variants have been published to date, this article covers just the catalytic C-C bond forming reactions due to their major benefits such as atom economy, less pollution, and workable simplicity. In the context of umpolung, the studies are evaluated under 3 main titles: enzyme, N -heterocyclic carbene, and cyanide ion catalyzed reactions. In particular, enzyme and NHC catalyzed reactions mainly involve asymmetric applications. Key words: Umpolung, thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), N -heterocyclic carbene, asymmetric synthesis 1. Introduction to umpolung As an outcome of extensive efforts dedicated to the development of new approaches for the construction of either complex synthetic targets or small synthetic building blocks, numerous synthetic organic methods are now available for a wide range of bond-forming reactions. 1 In particular, carbon-carbon (C-C) bond-forming reactions have been the key point among all the organic reactions in the history of organic synthesis. 2 However, the investigation of catalytic methods for C-C bond formation reactions, while generating functionality, remains a formidable challenge in the ongoing development of effective and reliable chemical processes.

  • Α-Hydrogen) on Carbon Adjacent to the Carbonyl Group (Α-Position) Is Replaced by the Electrophile (E)
    α-Substitution Reactions of Carbonyl Group The α-substitution reactions occur when the mobile hydrogen atom (α-hydrogen) on carbon adjacent to the carbonyl group (α-position) is replaced by the electrophile (E). This reaction occurs via enol or enolate ions. Keto-enol Tautomerism Carbonyl compounds containing hydrogen atom in the α-carbon atom can be converted to the enol form by displacement of this hydrogen. This transformation between the two structures is an isomorphism known as tautomerism. These isomers are called tautomers. Many carbonyl compounds are present in keto form. It is often difficult to isolate the pure enol form. Example: The keto-enol tautomerism of carbonyl compounds occurs by acid or base catalysis. In acid-catalyzed keto-enol tautomerism; The protonation of the carbonyl oxygen atom (Lewis base) gives an intermediate cation, which then forms a neutral enol form with loss of H + in the α-carbon. In the base-catalyzed enol formation, the enolate anion is formed primarily by the removal of the acidic hydrogen in the α-position of the carbonyl compound by the base, and the protonation of this anion forms the enol form. α-Halogenation of Aldehydes And Ketones Aldehydes and ketones give halogen derivatives with Cl2, Br2, I2 in α-positions in acidic solutions. Acid-catalyzed bromination mechanism of acetone: α-Bromoketones are suitable starting materials in organic synthesis. For this reason, dehydrobromination is used to obtain α, β-unsaturated ketone. Note: Haloform Reaction (base catalysed) Carbonyl Condensation Reactions Aldol Condensation of Ketones And Aldehydes Condensations are very important enolate reactions of carbonyl compounds.
