Pyrrolidines and Piperidines Bearing Chiral Tertiary Alcohols by Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioselective Reductive Cyclization of N-Alkynones ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s42004-018-0092-1 OPEN Pyrrolidines and piperidines bearing chiral tertiary alcohols by nickel-catalyzed enantioselective reductive cyclization of N-alkynones Guodu Liu 1,2, Wenzhen Fu1, Xingye Mu1, Ting Wu1, Ming Nie1, Kaidi Li1, Xiaodong Xu1 & Wenjun Tang1 1234567890():,; Pyrrolidines and piperidines are important building blocks in organic synthesis. Numerous methods exist for constructing substituted pyrrolidines and piperidines. However, efficient syntheses of pyrrolidines and piperidines bearing chiral tertiary alcohols are limited. Here we report an efficient enantioselective nickel-catalyzed intramolecular reductive cyclization of N- alkynones. A P-chiral bisphosphorus ligand DI-BIDIME is designed and applied in the synthesis of tertiary allylic siloxanes bearing pyrrolidine and piperidine rings in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities, with triethylsilane as reducing reagent. The highest turn over number achieved is 1000 (0.1 mol% catalyst loading) with > 99:1 er. This reaction provides a practical way to synthesize pyrrolidine and piperidine derivatives with chiral tertiary alcohols from easily accessible starting materials under mild conditions. The products can be scaled up and transformed to various useful chiral intermediates. The P-chiral bisphosphorus ligand developed in this study represents one of the few ligands for highly enantioselective cycli- zation of alkynones. 1 State Key Laboratory of Bio-organic and Natural Products Chemistry, Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 345 Ling Ling Road, Shanghai 200032, China. 2 Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Inner Mongolia University, 235 Da Xue West Road, Hohhot 010021, China.

  • End-Of-Line Hyphenation of Chemical Names (IUPAC Provisional
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2020; aop IUPAC Recommendations Albert J. Dijkstra*, Karl-Heinz Hellwich, Richard M. Hartshorn, Jan Reedijk and Erik Szabó End-of-line hyphenation of chemical names (IUPAC Provisional Recommendations) https://doi.org/10.1515/pac-2019-1005 Received October 16, 2019; accepted January 21, 2020 Abstract: Chemical names and in particular systematic chemical names can be so long that, when a manu- script is printed, they have to be hyphenated/divided at the end of a line. Many systematic names already contain hyphens, but sometimes not in a suitable division position. In some cases, using these hyphens as end-of-line divisions can lead to illogical divisions in print, as can also happen when hyphens are added arbi- trarily without considering the ‘chemical’ context. The present document provides recommendations and guidelines for authors of chemical manuscripts, their publishers and editors, on where to divide chemical names at the end of a line and instructions on how to avoid these names being divided at illogical places as often suggested by desk dictionaries. Instead, readability and chemical sense should prevail when authors insert optional hyphens. Accordingly, the software used to convert electronic manuscripts to print can now be programmed to avoid illogical end-of-line hyphenation and thereby save the author much time and annoy- ance when proofreading. The recommendations also allow readers of the printed article to determine which end-of-line hyphens are an integral part of the name and should not be deleted when ‘undividing’ the name. These recommendations may also prove useful in languages other than English.

  • Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of Early Transition Metal
    SYNTHESIS, STRUCTURE, AND REACTIVITY OF EARLY TRANSITION METAL PRECATALYSTS BEARING (N,O)-CHELATING LIGANDS by Philippa Robyn Payne B.Sc., University of Ottawa, 2008 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Chemistry) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2013 © Philippa Robyn Payne, 2013 ABSTRACT The synthesis, structure, and reactivity of early transition metal complexes containing (N,O)-chelating ancillary ligands are described. The ligands investigated include ureates, pyridonates, amidates, and sulfonamidates. These related ligands generate four-membered metallacycles when bound to the metal center in a κ2-(N,O) fashion. The zirconium and tantalum complexes have been examined in terms of their activity and selectivity as precatalyst systems for hydroamination or hydroaminoalkylation. A chiral cyclic ureate ligand has been synthesized from enantiopure L-valine for application in zirconium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroamination of aminoalkenes. Chiral zirconium complexes, prepared in situ from two equivalents of the urea proligand and tetrakis(dimethylamido) zirconium, promote the formation of pyrrolidines and piperidines in up to 12% ee. Isolation of an asymmetric bimetallic zirconium complex containing three bridging ureate ligands confirms that ligand redistribution occurs in solution and is most likely responsible for the low enantioselectivities. Mechanistic investigations focusing on the hydroaminoalkylation reactivity promoted by a bis(pyridonate) bis(dimethylamido) zirconium precatalyst expose a complex catalytic system in solution. Stoichiometric investigations reveal the formation of polymetallic complexes upon addition of primary amines. The kinetic and stoichiometric investigations are most consistent with a bimetallic catalytically active species. A series of mono(amidate) tantalum amido complexes with varying steric and electronic properties have been synthesized via protonolysis.
