Herein, we describe an unusual, divergent skeletal reorganization of N-sulfonyl ynamides. Upon treatment with lithium dii- N 1234567890():,; sopropylamine (LDA), -sulfonyl ynamides undergo a skeletal reorganization to deliver thiete sulfones, while the additional use of 1,3-dimethyl-tetrahydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (DMPU) shifts the process to furnish propargyl sulfonamides. This skeletal reorganization divergence features broad substrate scope and scalability. Mechanistically, experimental and computa- tional studies reveal that these processes may initiate from a lithiation/4-exo-dig cyclization cascade, and the following ligand-dependent 1,3-sulfonyl migration or β-elimination would control the chemodivergence. This protocol additionally provides a facile access to a variety of privileged molecules from easily accessible ynamides. 1 Institute of Drug Discovery and Design, College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Zhejiang University, 866 Yuhangtang Road, 310058 Hangzhou, China. 2 Laboratory of Organic Chemistry, Gifu Pharmaceutical University, Gifu 501-1196, Japan. 3 School of Food Science and Biotechnology, Zhejiang Gongshang ✉ University, 310018 Hangzhou, China. email: [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2020) 11:5639 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19467-5 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19467-5 keletal reorganization is a type of process involving multiple investigated in C–H functionalization to establish axially chiral bond cleavage and formation for molecule framework molecules and macrocyclic compounds25,26.

  • Radical Approaches to Alangium and Mitragyna Alkaloids
    Radical Approaches to Alangium and Mitragyna Alkaloids A Thesis Submitted for a PhD University of York Department of Chemistry 2010 Matthew James Palframan Abstract The work presented in this thesis has focused on the development of novel and concise syntheses of Alangium and Mitragyna alkaloids, and especial approaches towards (±)-protoemetinol (a), which is a key precursor of a range of Alangium alkaloids such as psychotrine (b) and deoxytubulosine (c). The approaches include the use of a key radical cyclisation to form the tri-cyclic core. O O O N N N O O O H H H H H H O N NH N Protoemetinol OH HO a Psychotrine Deoxytubulosine b c Chapter 1 gives a general overview of radical chemistry and it focuses on the application of radical intermolecular and intramolecular reactions in synthesis. Consideration is given to the mediator of radical reactions from the classic organotin reagents, to more recently developed alternative hydrides. An overview of previous synthetic approaches to a range of Alangium and Mitragyna alkaloids is then explored. Chapter 2 follows on from previous work within our group, involving the use of phosphorus hydride radical addition reactions, to alkenes or dienes, followed by a subsequent Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. It was expected that the tri-cyclic core of the Alangium alkaloids could be prepared by cyclisation of a 1,7-diene, using a phosphorus hydride to afford the phosphonate or phosphonothioate, however this approach was unsuccessful and it highlighted some limitations of the methodology. Chapter 3 explores the radical and ionic chemistry of a range of silanes.

Received: 24 September 2012; in revised form: 12 November 2012 / Accepted: 13 November 2012 / Published: 19 November 2012 Abstract: Thiols are important molecules in the environment and in biological processes. Cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), glutathione (GSH) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) play critical roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. The selective detection of thiols using reaction-based probes and sensors is very important in basic research and in disease diagnosis. This review focuses on the design of fluorescent and colorimetric probes and sensors for thiol detection. Thiol detection methods include probes and labeling agents based on nucleophilic addition and substitution, Michael addition, disulfide bond or Se-N bond cleavage, metal-sulfur interactions and more. Probes for H2S are based on nucleophilic cyclization, reduction and metal sulfide formation.

  • Vinylogous Sulfonamides in the Total Synthesis of Indolizidine Alkaloids from Amphibians and Ants
    VINYLOGOUS SULFONAMIDES IN THE TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF INDOLIZIDINE ALKALOIDS FROM AMPHIBIANS AND ANTS Susan Winks A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. January 2010 i Declaration I declare that the work presented in this thesis was carried out exclusively by me under the supervision of Professor J. P. Michael and Professor C. B. de Koning. It is being submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination in any other university. ______________________ 15th day of January 2010. ii Abstract This thesis describes the application of vinylogous sulfonamides in a generalised synthetic protocol for the synthesis of indolizidine alkaloids, viz. monomorine I, 5-epi-monomorine I and the key precursor to indolizidine 209D. Chapter one puts the work into perspective with a review of the different classes of amphibian alkaloids, with specific emphasis on previous syntheses of indolizidine 209D and monomorine I. This is followed by a brief overview of previous synthetic strategies employed for alkaloid synthesis in the Wits laboratories and an introduction to vinylogous sulfonamides. Chapter 2 concludes with our aims and proposed strategies for the project. The attempted total synthesis of (−)-indolizidine 209D is described in Chapter 3. The initial three steps to prepare t-butyl (3R)-3-{benzyl[(1R)-1- phenylethyl]amino}nonanoate (274) proceeded well, but the fourth step, deprotecting the nitrogen, gave inconsistent results and hindered the completion of the synthesis.

  • Synthetic Exploration of Sulfinyl Radicals Using Sulfinyl Sulfones
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-25593-5 OPEN Synthetic exploration of sulfinyl radicals using sulfinyl sulfones Zikun Wang 1,5, Zhansong Zhang1,5, Wanjun Zhao1, Paramasivam Sivaguru 1, Giuseppe Zanoni2, ✉ Yingying Wang1, Edward A. Anderson 3 & Xihe Bi 1,4 Sulfinyl radicals – one of the fundamental classes of S-centered radicals – have eluded synthetic application in organic chemistry for over 60 years, despite their potential to 1234567890():,; assemble valuable sulfoxide compounds. Here we report the successful generation and use of sulfinyl radicals in a dual radical addition/radical coupling with unsaturated hydrocarbons, where readily-accessed sulfinyl sulfones serve as the sulfinyl radical precursor. The strategy provides an entry to a variety of previously inaccessible linear and cyclic disulfurized adducts in a single step, and demonstrates tolerance to an extensive range of hydrocarbons and functional groups. Experimental and theoretical mechanistic investigations suggest that these reactions proceed through sequential sulfonyl and sulfinyl radical addition. 1 Department of Chemistry, Northeast Normal University, Changchun, China. 2 Department of Chemistry, University of Pavia, Pavia, Italy. 3 Chemistry Research Laboratory, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK. 4 State Key Laboratory of Elemento-Organic Chemistry, Nankai University, Tianjin, China. 5These ✉ authors contributed equally: Zikun Wang, Zhansong Zhang. email: [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2021) 12:5244 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-25593-5 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-25593-5 rganosulfur compounds are of fundamental importance significantly longer than the S–S bond lengths of other disulfide Oin synthetic and biological chemistry.
