ABSTRACT Synthesis of New Chiral Pyrylium Salts, the Corresponding ABSTRACT Synthesis of New Chiral Pyrylium Salts, the Corresponding Phosphinine and Pyridine Derivatives and the Kinetic Studies of the Epimerization of Pyrylium Salts Nelson A. van der Velde, Ph.D. Mentor: Charles M. Garner, Ph.D. Despite the versatility of pyrylium salts as precursors to many heteroaromatic systems, chiral pyrylium salts are almost unknown in the literature. One reason for this scarcity is that pyrylium salts are often involved as intermediates rather than as isolated and characterized materials. Another is that many pyrylium salts preparations tend to result in non-characterizable black solid due to polymerization reactions. We have developed the synthesis of several new chiral pyrylium salts and their conversion to the corresponding pyridines and phosphinines. This work almost triples the number of reported chiral pyrylium salts, and also represents the first racemizable/epimerizable pyrylium salts. The derived phosphinines and pyridines represent rare alpha-chiral ligands for transition metals. Interestingly, only a few examples of chiral phosphinines have been reported in the literature. Incorporation of chirality directly (i.e., alpha to aromatic ring) onto these planar ring systems has proven to be difficult. From our pyrylium salts we have synthesized new phosphinines with the chirality as close as possible to the phosphorus center. Two known pyridinium salts were also prepared with the thiosemicarbazone moiety. The cytotoxicity and inhibition of cruzain were evaluated and found to be non-actives. Our interest in chiral pyrylium salts led us to investigate the configurational stability of chiral centers alpha to the pyrylium ring. Although no epimerizable (or even racemizable) pyrylium salts have been reported, deuterium exchange at ortho and especially para benzylic positions is well-known, suggesting that epimerization is possible. Described here is the first study of the base-catalyzed epimerization of chiral pyrylium salts. In one case, this required identifying all components of a complex mixture of diastereomers. It was found that the base-catalyzed epimerization mechanism of the pyrylium salts studied is first order on the pyrylium and first order on the pseudobase formed.

  • Aromatic Compounds from Pyrylium Salts
    Aromatic Compounds from Pyrylium Salts K. DlMROTH AND K. H. WOLF Chemisettes Institut der Universitat Marburg/Lahn Introduction The readily obtainable substituted pyrylium salts lend themselves to the preparation of numerous, often difficultly accessible, aromatic com­ pounds of both the heterocyclic and isocyclic series. The first known example of these reactions is the formation of pyridine and pyridinium derivatives described by Baeyer. Another reaction of this kind is the formation of thiopyrylium salts reported by Wizinger. Especially numer­ ous are the possibilities for the preparation of isocyclic aromatic com­ pounds, whereby known phenols and alkylated amines together with new nitrocompounds, ketones, carboxylic acids, nitriles, phenol carboxylic acids, aminonitriles, or hydrocarbons of the benzene, naphthalene, and phenanthrene series can be prepared in generally good yield. The use of pyrylium salts as the starting materials for the preparation of azulenes is also possible. In addition to a discussion of these reactions a survey of the methods available for the preparation of pyrylium salts will be given. Conversion of Pyrylium Salts into Heterocyclic Compounds Possessing Aromatic Character DERIVATIVES OF PYRIDINE As found by Baeyer [1], the original worker in this field, pyrylium salts can readily be converted into pyridine derivatives by warming with an aqueous ammonium carbonate solution. Following the preparation by Baeyer and Piccard [2] of collidine (2a) and 2,6-dimethyl-4-phenyl- pyridine (2b) from 2,4,6-trimethylpyrylium perchlorate (la) and 2,6- dimethyl-4-phenylpyrylium perchlorate (lb) respectively, this synthesis was extended to include other 2,4,6-tri-alkyl- and aryl-substituted pyryl­ ium salts by Dilthey [3], Gastaldi [4], and others [5], These reactions, however, served more to elucidate the constitution of the pyrylium salts, than in the preparation of specific pyridine derivatives.

García Mancheño Catalytic Enantioselective Reactions with (Benzo)Pyrylium Salts Sumi Josepha, Gaukhar Khassenovaa, and Olga García Mancheño* Abstract: The use of (benzo)pyrylium salts as versatile synthetic building blocks has become an attractive plat- form for the preparation of valuable heterocyclic compounds. Besides other numerous direct applications of (benzo)pyryliums, the intrinsic electrophilic nature of these species or the dipole character of the related oxi- dopyrylium derivatives have been exploited towards the development of enantioselective transformations such as nucleophilic dearomatization and cycloaddition reactions. This review aims at providing an overview on the relevant catalytic enantioselective methodologies developed in the past years, which are presented considering the involved metal- and/or organic catalytic system, as well as the type of reaction.
