Thesis (2020); McMaster University, Hamilton Ontario – Chemistry TITLE: Total asymmetric synthesis of ring-A derivatives of (+)-trans- dihydronarciclasine. AUTHOR: Jon R. Scattolon, H. B. Sc. Minor Physics (Brock University). SUPERVISOR: Professor James McNulty. PAGES xvii, 181. ii M. Sc. Thesis – J.R. Scattolon; McMaster University – Chemical Biology Lay Abstract This thesis is primarily driven towards the development of four antiviral lycorane structural type alkaloids, and an analogue synthesized via a copper-cocatalyzed Sonogashira reaction, utilizing a labile phenol-derived sulfonated hydroxyl group in its coupling towards an alkyne tagged structure. This method provides easy access for a variety of compounds without a fluorescent tag, taking steps forward in elucidating how the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids are delivering their biological effects. The densely substituted ring-C was obtained via an asymmetric organocatalytic [3+3] sequence for the assembly of the aminocyclitol core and is described. This sequence has provided effective regio, diastereo, and enantioselective access to five unnatural products. Preparation of the precursors were prepared using a Wittig methodology previous reported by the McNulty group that has been used in many syntheses for various Amaryllidaceae alkaloids. iii M. Sc. Thesis – J.R. Scattolon; McMaster University – Chemical Biology Abstract Significant attention from the medicinal and pharmaceutical communities has been pushed towards the design and development of natural products for defence against many forms of illnesses. The Amaryllidaceae plant family has shown their prevalence over time aiding towards our needs and becoming viable sources of alkaloids due to their wide variety of bioactivities presented. The low availability towards these often-complex structures with at times comprising up to six contiguous chiral centers have made practical testing scarce. More dominantly the isocarbostyrils are well recognized, being hydroxylated phenanthridones providing increased activities making them model targets to test and develop new synthetic strategies towards. These compounds represent a subset of the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids that lack a basic nitrogen center. This thesis describes the total synthesis of four derivatives of the antiviral natural product (+)-trans-dihydronarciclasine from α-azidoacetone and m-anisaldehyde. Herein we demonstrate constructive routes towards ring-A modified, fully functionalized rings-B/C derivatives synthesized via asymmetric chemical syntheses providing further insight into SAR studies. This thesis expands on the organocatalytic [3+3]-cycloaddition sequence to produce aminocyclitol cores providing effective routes towards the development of five stereogenic centers in all targeted ring-C structures. Such studies were attributed to the enal adducts isolated from the Wittig reaction towards four natural product derivatives gaining knowledge related to the targeted molecules mode of action. One additional (+)-trans- dihydrolycoricidine analogue will be communicated, that enables the imaging while inside live cells with use of alkyne-tag Raman imaging. iv M. Sc. Thesis – J.R. Scattolon; McMaster University – Chemical Biology Limitations of the alkaloids include the toxicity that accompanies these agents and the poor aqueous solubilities they provide, eliciting an increased need for new antiviral agents. The syntheses communicated provide effective routes towards unnatural alkaloids and can be pushed towards alternative chiral aminocyclitol targets for future studies. All compounds have been sent away for screening including against coronavirus at Johns Hopkins. v M. Sc. Thesis – J.R.

  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

Keywords: aqueous reaction medium; MAOS; Mizoroki–Heck reaction; Pd nanoparticle; sustainable organic synthesis Abstract Aqueous Mizoroki–Heck coupling reactions under microwave irradiation (MW) were carried out with a colloidal Pd nanocatalyst stabilized with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). Many stilbenes and novel heterostilbenes were achieved in good to excellent yields starting from aryl bromides and different olefins. The reaction was carried out in a short reaction time and with low catalyst loading, leading to high turnover frequency (TOFs of the order of 100 h−1). The advantages like operational simplicity, high robust- ness, efficiency and turnover frequency, the utilization of aqueous media and simple product work-up make this protocol a great option for stilbene syntheses by Mizoroki–Heck reaction. Introduction Palladium-catalyzed reactions have emerged as an important basic types of Pd-catalyzed reactions, particularly the vinyl- tool for organic synthesis. Among them, cross-coupling and ation of aryl/vinyl halides or triflates [7-10], explored not only coupling reactions have been broadly applied for C–C and in the inter- and intramolecular version [2,11-13], but also in C–heteroatom bond formation [1-6].

Learning Outcomes After studying this module, you shall be able to Know about protecting groups. Study the characteristics of protecting groups. Understand the functional group protection. Know the protection of important functional groups. 2. Introduction Protection and deprotection is an important part of organic synthesis. During the course of synthesis, we many times desire to perform reaction at only one of the two functional groups in any single organic molecules. For example, in an organic compound possessing two functional groups like ester and ketone, we have to perform reaction at only ester group, them the keto group needs to be protected. If we want to reduce the ester group, then keto group will also get reduced. To avoid this type of complications, protection and deprotection of functional groups are necessary. 3. Protecting groups for carbonyl compounds The protecting groups allow the masking of a particular functional group where a specified reaction is not to be performed. The protection is required as it interferes with another reaction.

  • Mechanisms of the Mizoroki-Heck Reaction
    P1: OTA c01 JWBK261-Oestreich December 16, 2008 10:9 Printer: Yet to come 1 Mechanisms of the Mizoroki–Heck Reaction Anny Jutand Departement´ de Chimie, Ecole Normale Superieure,´ CNRS, 24 Rue Lhomond, Paris Cedex 5, France 1.1 Introduction The palladium-catalysed Mizoroki–Heck reaction is the most efficient route for the vinyla- tion of aryl/vinyl halides or triflates. This reaction, in which a C C bond is formed, proceeds in the presence of a base (Scheme 1.1) [1, 2]. Nonconjugated alkenes are formed in re- actions involving cyclic alkenes (Scheme 1.2) [1e, 2a,c,e,g] or in intramolecular reactions (Scheme 1.3) [2b,d–g] with creation of stereogenic centres. Asymmetric Mizoroki–Heck reactions may be performed in the presence of a chiral ligand [2]. The Mizoroki–Heck reaction has been intensively developed from a synthetic and mechanistic point of view, as expressed by the impressive number of reviews and book chapters [1, 2]. In the late 1960s, Heck reported that arylated alkenes were formed in the reaction of alkenes with a stoichiometric amount of [Ar–Pd Cl] or [Ar–Pd–OAc], generated in situ by reacting ArHgCl with PdCl2 or ArHgOAc with Pd(OAc)2 respectively [3]. A mechanism was proposed which involves a syn migratory insertion of the alkene into the Ar–Pd bond, followedbyasyn β-hydride elimination of a hydridopalladium [HPdX] (X = Cl, OAc) (Scheme 1.4a). In the case of cyclic alkenes, in which no syn β-hydride is available, a syn β-hydride elimination occurs, leading to a nonconjugated alkene (Scheme 1.4b).

Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Pharmacy 244. 74 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 91–554–4883–6 The palladium-catalysed Heck-reaction has been utilised in organic synthesis, where the introduction of aryl groups at the internal, β-carbon of different allylic substrates has been performed with high regioselectivity. The β-stabilising effect of silicon enhances the regiocontrol in the internal arylation of allyltrimethylsilane, while a coordination between palladium and nitrogen induces very high regioselectivities in the arylation of N,N-dialkylallylamines and the Boc-protected allylamine, producing β-arylated arylethylamines, which are of interest for applications in medicinal chemistry. Phthalimido-protected allylamines are arylated with poor to moderate regioselectivity. Single-mode microwave heating can reduce the reaction times of Heck-, Stille- and radical mediated reactions drastically from approximately 20 hours to a few minutes with, in the majority of cases, retained, high

AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll.
