Wuest Directeur du jury Prof. Stephen Hanessian Directeur de recherche Prof. Yvan Guindon Membre du jury Mémoire accepté le: III Je sais plus iv Résumé Les tétrazoles sont de plus en plus populaires dans l’industrie pharmaceutique. Les propriétés isostériques du tétrazole permettent de mimer les acides carboxyliques et les amides cis. Bien que plusieurs méthodes soient disponibles pour la synthèse de tétrazoles, ces méthodes nécessitent généralement des conditions fortement acides et des températures élevées. Les tétrazoles bicycliques sont maintenant accessibles en conditions douces à partir de I ,3-dioxolanes portant un azidure proximal. La réaction est promue par une variété d’acides de Lewis en présence de TMSCN et implique une cycloaddition 1 ,3-dipolaire diastéréosélective. Mots clés: Tétrazole oxabicyclique 1 ,5-dialkylé, cyanohydrine, azido-acétal, dioxolane, cycloaddition 1 ,3-dipolaire, acide de Lewis. V Abstract Tetrazoles are an increasingly popular functionality in the pharmaceutical industry. Isosteric properties of the tetrazole help mimic carboxylic acids and cis amide bonds. Even though many methods are available for the synthesis of tetrazoles, they usually employ strongly acidic conditions and high temperatu re. Bicyclic tetrazoles are now accessible under mild conditions from 1,3- dioxolanes bearing a proximal azido group. The reaction is mediated by a variety of Lewis acids in the presence of TMSCN, and proceeds by the formation of an activated cyanohydrin followed by a diastereoselective 1,3- dipolar cycloaddition. Key words: Oxabicyclic-1 ,5-dialkylated tetrazole, cyanohydrine, azido acetals, dioxolane, 1 ,3-dipolar cycloaddition, Lewis acid. vi Table des matières CHAPITRE I Introduction aux tétrazoles I 1.1 Introduction 2 1.2 Les types de structure 2 1.3 Isomérisation Azido-Tetrazolo 3 1.4 Utilisation des tétrazoles en chimie organique 5 Utilisation en chimie médicinale 5 Utilisation en synthèse organique 8 1.5 Principales méthodes de synthèse 9 Type 1 : Formation de tétrazole par condensation d’un azidure avec un nitrile 10 Type 2: Formation de tétrazole à partir d’amides 16 Type 3: Formation de tétrazoles à partir de cétones 20 Type 4: Formation de tétrazole à partir d’alcènes 22 Type 5: Formation de tétrazoles à partir d’imines d’hydrazines 23 1.6 Exemple de molécule naturelle 25 CHAPITRE 2 Découverte de la réaction de formation de tétrazole polycyclique 27 2.1 Historique de la découverte d’une nouvelle méthode de formation de tétrazoles 28 2.2 Nouvelle réaction de formation de tétrazoles oxabicycliques 33 2.3 Ouverture nucléophile de dioxanes et de dioxolanes: une introduction 35 vii Formation de cyanohydrines par substitution nucléophile sur des acétals 35 Ouverture nucléophile d’acétals cycliques et le problème de la sélectivité d’ouverture 38 2.4 Cycloaddition 1 ,3-dipolaire : Une brève introduction 43 CHAPITRE 3 Formation de tétrazole: Synthèse et études mécanistiques 45 3.1 Introduction 46 3.2 Formation des substrats pour l’analyse: Méthodes générales 49 3.3 Formation des intermédiaires réactionnels: Les cyanohydrines 51 3.4 Identification des cyanohydrines 54 3.5 Formation du tétrazole : La cycloaddition dipolaire 57 3.6 Réversibilité de l’addition du nitrile 58 3.7 Effet du solvant sur la réaction de formation de tétrazoles pour le substrat typique 59 La formation des cyanohydrines 60 La cycloaddition 1 ,3-dipolaire 65 3.8 Nucléophile 66 3.9 Variation des acides de Lewis pour la réaction impliquant le substrat typique 67 3.10 Champ d’action de la réaction 70 3.11 Formation d’un nouveau produit, une dihydro-oxazine 72 3.12 Le cas des anisoles : mécanisme de la réaction de formation de tétrazoles etde la dihydro-oxazine (214) 76 Para-méthoxybenzylidène 79 VIII 3.13 Conclusion .83 CHAPITRE 4 Diversification des tétrazoles oxabicycliques 85 4.1 Introduction 86 4.2 Site A.

  • MO STUDIES of SOME NONBENZENOID AROMATIC SYSTEMS Electrons
    MO STUDIESOFSOME NONBENZENOID AROMATIC SYSTEMS MIcL J. S. DEWAR Department of Chemistry, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas 78712, USA ABSTRACT A new version of(MINDO/3) of the MINDO semiempirical SCF MO method has been developed which seems to avoid the serious defects of earlier treat- ments. Very extensive tests show that it gives results at least comparable with those of the best ab initio SCF procedures at one-hundred-thousandth of the cost. Calculations are reported for the benzynes, for various cyclic polymethines, including (CH), (CH)3, (CH), (CH)4, (CH), (CH)5, (CH), (CI{), and (CH)18, for azulene and pentalene, for the cycloheptatriene—norcaradiene equilibrium, for spironoatetraene, for silabenzene, for a variety of poly- azines and polyazoles, and for various aromatic and potentially aromatic sulphur-containing compounds. INTRODUCTION While theoretical organic chemistry has long been based on the results of quantum mechanical treatments, in particular simplified versions of the molecular orbital (MO) method, these until recently have been too inaccurate to give results of more than qualitative significance. Many problems have therefore remained outside the scope of current theory since their solution depended on quantitative estimates of the relative energies of atoms and molecules. Recently it has become possible to carry out such quantitative calculations and the results are already proving of major chemical interest in a number of areas. The purpose of this lecture is to report some preliminary studies of this kind of various aromatic systems and problems connected with them. There is of course no question of obtaining accurate solutions of the Schrodinger equation for molecules large enough to be of chemical interest.

  • Non-Empirical Calculations on the Electronic Structure of Olefins and Aromatics
    NON-EMPIRICAL CALCULATIONS ON THE ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF OLEFINS AND AROMATICS by Robert H. Findlay, B.Sc. Thesis presented for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy University of Edinburgh December 1973 U N /),, cb CIV 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I Wish to express my gratitude to Dr. M.H. Palmer for his advice and encouragement during this period of study. I should also like to thank Professor J.I.G. Cadogan and Professor N. Campbell for the provision of facilities, and the Carnegie Institute for the Universities of Scotland for a Research Scholarship. SUMMARY Non-empirical, self-consistent field, molecular orbital calculations, with the atomic orbitals represented by linear combinations of Gaussian-type functions have been carried out on the ground state electronic structures of some nitrogen-, oxygen-, sulphur- and phosphorus-containing heterocycles. Some olefins and olefin derivatives have also been studied. Calculated values of properties have been compared with the appropriate experimental quantities, and in most cases the agreement is good, with linear relationships being established; these are found to have very small standard deviations. Extensions to molecules for which there is no experimental data have been made. In many cases it has been iôtrnd possible to relate the molecular orbitals to the simplest member of a series, or to the hydrocarbon analogue. Predictions of the preferred geometry of selected molecules have been made; these have been used to predict inversion barriers and reaction mechanisms. / / The extent of d-orbital participation in molecules containing second row atoms has been investigated and found to be of trivial importance except in molecules containing high valence states of the second row atoms.

However, synthesis and storage of such compounds remain a big challenge because of difficulties to find energy efficient synthetic routes and stabilization mechanisms. Compounds of metals with nitrogen represent promising candidates for realization of energetic polynitrogen compounds, which are also environmentally benign. Here we report the synthesis of polynitrogen planar N6 hexazine rings, stabilized in K2N6 compound, which was formed from K azide upon laser heating in a diamond anvil cell at high pressures in excess of 45 GPa and remains metastable down to 20 GPa. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy are used to identify this material, also exhibiting metallic luster, being all consistent with theoretically predicted structural, vibrational and electronic properties. The documented here N6 hexazine rings represent new highly energetic polynitrogens, which have a potential for future recovery and utilization.

The results revealed excellent agreement with the available experimental data and were interpreted using the triadic approach. We found out that pyrroles, which are more reactive towards EAS reaction than benzene, are stronger carbon bases than the latter compound, whereas pyridines exhibit lower carbon basicity, be- ing at the same time less reactive toward substitution by electrophiles than benzene. In all of the investigated molecules the frontier orbital describing the corresponding π–electron density at the carbon atom to be protonated is HOMO as calculated by the HF/G3large//B3LYP/6–31G(d) level of theory. Our results are in a disagreement with the work by D’Auria (M. D’Auria, Tetrahedron Lett. 2005, 46, 6333–6336; Lett. Org. Chem. 2005, 2, 659–661), who at B3LYP/6–311+G(d,p) level found out that in some of systems investigated here the HOMO orbital is not of π–symme- try, which was used to rationalize the lower reactivity of these systems towards EAS.

    QUANTIFYING NON-COVALENT INTERACTIONS IN BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS THROUGH COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY A Dissertation by YI AN Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Steven E. Wheeler Committee Members, Robert R. Lucchese Christian Hilty Wonmuk Hwang Head of Department, Francois P. Gabbai December 2015 Major Subject: Chemistry Copyright 2015 Yi An ABSTRACT Non-covalent interactions, especially those involving arenes, perform critical roles in biological processes, including ligand-protein and ligand-nucleic acid interactions, as well as protein and DNA/RNA stability and function. We investigated non-covalent interactions involving aromatic rings using computational chemistry in four contexts: sequence-selective DNA-binding antibodies, nitroarene-protein interactions, heterocycle-adenine interactions, and the tuning of amino acid pKa’s. We first surveyed recent advances in our understanding of alkali metal cation-π interactions and their role in both experimental and theoretical fields. Then quantum mechanical computations and classical molecular mechanics based molecular dynamics simulations were utilized as the main tools to explore non-covalent interactions involving π-system in biological systems. We present computational analyses of the binding of four dinucleotides to a sequence-selective single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding antibody (ED-10) and selected point-mutants using MMGBSA as well as DFT applied to a cluster model of the binding site. The results indicate that the sequence selectivity arises primarily from differences in the strength of π-stacking and XH/π interactions with the surrounding aromatic residues; hydrogen bonds play little role.
