Abstract The present thesis describes the development of new catalytic protocols to transform allylic substrates into a wide variety of versatile carbonyl and vinyl organic compounds. All procedures that are described in this work have in common the existence of one or more hydrogen shifts as key steps in the mechanism of the reactions. The thesis is divided into two mayor sections depending on the strategy employed, metal catalysis or organocatalysis. The introductory chapter (Chapter 1) starts with an overview of the different types of catalysis and the importance of allylic substrates in organic chemistry. The chapter continues with an extensive description of the isomerization of allylic alcohols and finishes with a short introduction about hypervalent iodine chemistry. The goals of the thesis are also depicted at the end of this chapter. Chapters 2, 3 and 4 embody the use of iridium catalysis as an effective tool to synthesize α-functionalized carbonyl compounds selectively as single constitutional isomers from allylic alcohols. The first two chapters of this section describe the employment of several electrophiles to trap enolate derivatives formed from the corresponding allylic alcohols. Chapter 2 shows the development of two new protocols for the preparation of challenging α-iodinated carbonyl compounds. In chapter 3, the synthesis of α-aminooxy and α-hydroxyketones is investigated by employing an N-oxoammonium salt as electrophilic agent. Chapter 4 describes the development of an umpolung strategy that allows the synthesis of α- functionalized carbonyls through the reaction of two formal nucleophiles: enolate derivatives and alcohols. Mechanistic investigations performed in this section point to the presence of an iridium-catalyzed hydride shift operating in the reaction pathways. The last three chapters (5, 6 and 7) describe the development of metal-free methods for the conversion of allylic substrates into valuable products by means of base catalysis. Chapter 5 and 6 depict the stereospecific isomerization of a large scope of allylic alcohols, ethers and halides. A simple guanidine-type base, TBD (1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5- ene), is an effective catalyst to isomerize allylic substrates with excellent levels of transfer of chirality. The mechanism of this transformation is studied in detail experimentally and computationally and it is suggested to involve a [1,3]- proton shift through the formation of a tight ion-pair. Chapter 7 shows that base-catalysis allows the isomerization of conjugated polyenyl alcohols and ethers which has been proved to be challenging with metal–catalysis. Experimental and computational investigations in this last chapter suggests that the mechanism may proceed through a series of iterative [1,3]-proton shifts or “base-walk”.

Från läkemedel och jordbrukskemikalier till sensorer, bränslen eller hushållsprodukter. Deras existens i vår vardag är enorm. En stor utmaning för kemister är att skapa metoder för att få tillgång till organiska molekyler på ett effektivt och selektivt sätt. Numera är det viktigare än någonsin att dessa metoder är hållbara och har minimal påverkan på miljön. Av dessa skäl är det extremt viktig att forskningen syftar till att utveckla nya effektiva och miljövänliga reaktioner för att få tillgång till viktiga organiska molekyler. I detta sammanhang presenteras i denna doktorsavhandling flera projekt som syftar till att söka nya metoder för syntes av användbara molekyler inom organisk kemi. Det övergripande målet är att utveckla effektiva och selektiva metoder med olika katalysatorer och använda vanligt förekommande allyliska substrat som råmaterial. Den första delen av denna avhandling handlar om användningen av iridiumkatalys som ett effektivt verktyg för selektiv syntes av a-funktionaliserade karbonylföreningar. Lättillgängliga allyliska alkoholer omvandlas effektivt till en mängd olika funktionaliserade aldehyder och ketoner som är extremt mångsidiga föreningar i organisk syntes. Därefter handlar den andra delen om upptäckten av nya metallfria reaktioner vilka utnyttjar baskatalys. Allyliska substrat såsom allyliska alkoholer, etrar och halogenider omvandlas till relevanta molekyler under milda reaktionsbetingelser och med användning av en enkel bas som katalysator. Reaktionsvägen har alltid studerats och undersökts i alla projekt genom denna avhandling. Att få en djup förståelse av reaktionsmekanismen möjliggör att metoden i framtiden förbättras och utvecklas på ett bättre och mer effektivt

  • DEVELOPMENT of NOVEL METHODOLOGIES UTILIZING QUATERNARY AMMONIUM SALTS AS CATALYSTS by LINDSEY RAE CULLEN DISSERTATION Submitted
    DEVELOPMENT OF NOVEL METHODOLOGIES UTILIZING QUATERNARY AMMONIUM SALTS AS CATALYSTS BY LINDSEY RAE CULLEN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Scott E. Denmark, Chair Professor Martin D. Burke Professor Scott K. Silverman Professor Steven C. Zimmerman ii Abstract The first half of this thesis (Chapter 2) described the development of a fluoride-promoted conjugate addition of sulfur-stabilized carbanion nucleophiles to α,β-unsaturated ketones and esters. This reaction was achieved using a substoichiometric amount of TBAF, resulting in high yields on the desired 1,4-addition product. The addition of 1,3-dithianes was given particular focus as a novel method for the preparation of differentially protect 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds. Observation by 13C NMR spectroscopy provided evidence that the reaction proceeds through an ion pair, and attempts to extend this reaction to asymmetric additions using a chiral counterion are presented in detail. The second half of this thesis (Chapter 3) details development of a phase transfer catalyzed [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of allyloxy carbonyl compounds. Initial investigation focused on identifying viable substrate classes that would undergo selective [2,3]-rearrangement under phase transfer conditions. Under certain conditions, the [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of allyloxy carbonyl compounds takes place in the presence of a phase transfer agent, providing a rare example of a phase transfer catalyzed unimolecular reaction. In the course of this investigation it was found that catalysis is dependent on several variables including base concentration, catalyst structure, and substrate lipophilicity.

  • Nickel-Catalyzed Cyanation of Benzylic and Allylic Pivalates
    Nickel-Catalyzed Cyanation of Benzylic and Allylic Pivalates by Alexandria Daria Maria Jeanneret A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Alexandria Daria Maria Jeanneret 2018 Nickel-Catalyzed Cyanation of Benzylic and Allylic Pivalates Alexandria Daria Maria Jeanneret Master of Science Department of Chemistry University of Toronto 2018 Abstract Nitriles are considered very versatile functional groups due to their ability to easily be transformed into a variety of other functional groups in one or two steps. In particular, the synthesis of α-arylnitriles is of interest to organic chemists due to their presence in pharmaceuticals and their value as synthetic intermediates. Taking advantage of nickel’s unique ability to insert into a C‒O bond, the focus of this thesis is on the nickel-catalyzed cyanation of benzylic and allylic pivalates, exploring the use of inorganic and organic cyanide sources for this transformation. The substrate scope for the synthesis of benzylic and allylic nitriles will be presented as well as studies examining the functional group tolerance of this cyanation reaction, which led to further insights into the mechanism and applicability of this chemistry. ii Acknowledgments First and foremost, I would like to thank Professor Sophie Rousseaux for the opportunity to work to work in her lab over the last year. Her passion for chemistry is beyond contagious and her guidance has been invaluable. I would also like to thank Professor Mark Taylor for his help with this thesis. Secondly, I would like to thank all the staff at the NMR and AIMS facility for all their hard-work and dedication to ensuring the instruments run smoothly and for always taking the time to answer questions.

  • A Biosynthetically Inspired Synthetic Route to Substituted Furans, and Its Application to the Total Synthesis of the Furan Fatty
    A Biosynthetically Inspired Synthetic Route to Substituted Furans, and its Application to the Total Synthesis of the Furan Fatty Acid F5 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree Doctor of Philosophy Robert Jack Lee Supervisors: Dr Gareth J. Pritchard and Dr Marc C. Kimber 1 Thesis Abstract Dietary fish oil supplementation has long been shown to have significant health benefits, largely stemming from the anti-inflammatory activity of the ω-3 and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) present in fish oils. The anti-inflammatory properties of these fatty acids has been linked to beneficial health effects, such as protecting the heart, in individuals consuming diets rich in fish, or supplemented with fish oils.1 These effects are highly notable in the Māori people native to coastal regions of New Zealand; the significantly lower rates of heart problems compared to the inland populous has been attributed to the consumption of the green lipped mussel Perna Canaliculus. Commercially available health supplements based on the New Zealand green lipped mussel include a freeze-dried powder and a lipid extract (Lyprinol®), the latter of which has shown anti- inflammatory properties comparable to classical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Naproxen.2 GCMS analysis of Lyprinol by Murphy et al. showed the presence of a class of ω-4 and ω-6 PUFAs bearing a highly electron rich tri- or tetra-alkyl furan ring, which were designated furan fatty acids (F-acids).3 Due to their instability, isolation of F- acids from natural sources cannot be carried out and a general synthetic route toward this class of natural products was required.

Halogenation of 1-kestose was conducted via the Appel reaction with the use of carbon tetrahalide (CBr4 or CCl4) and triphenylphosphine, which was then followed by conventional acetylation. The per-O-acetylated form of 6,6’,6’’-trihalogenated derivatives of 1- kestose were conveniently isolated. Further deprotection of the per-O-acetylated form resulted in 6-, 6’-, and 6’’-trihalogenated derivatives. The structure elucidation by one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance established that halogenations are specific at the 6-, 6’-, and 6’’-position of 1-kestose primary alcohols.
