  • When Phosphosugars Meet Gold: Synthesis and Catalytic Activities of Phostones and Polyhydroxylated Phosphonite Au(I) Complexes

These novel ligands for Au(I) are based on glycomimetic phosphorus scaffolds, obtained from the chiral pool. The catalytic activities of these complexes are shown in the cyclization of allenols and the hydroamination of 2-(2-propynyl)aniline combined with an organocatalyzed reduction to the corresponding 2-phenyl tetrahydroquinoline. All described gold complexes present excellent catalytic activities. Keywords: gold catalysis; phosphosugars; catalysis; heterocycles; P-stereogeny 1. Introduction One of the major advances of the 21th century in organic chemistry is undoubtedly the increased importance of gold catalysis. Long believed to be useless for catalysis, gold complexes have emerged as powerful tools for the catalysis of myriads of reactions [1–9]. In particular, the gold tolerance towards air, moisture and numerous chemical functionalities renders the use of these catalysts very convenient. However, the bicoordinate linear geometry of gold(I) complexes makes the control of the asymmetry difficult, the chiral ligand being placed in a distal position to the reactive cationic center.

    Towards the Total Synthesis of 1!,25-dihydroxylumisterol A. Simon Partridge Julia Laboratory, Department of Chemistry, Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, London SW7 2AZ, United Kingdom September 2012 A thesis submitted as partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Imperial College London. Abstract This thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter provides a brief review on recent work in the application of cascade cyclisations to the total synthesis of natural products. This is followed by a review of the decarboxylative Claisen rearrangement (dCr), a novel variant of the Ireland-Claisen reaction in which tosylacetic esters of allylic alcohols are transformed into homoallylic sulfones using BSA and potassium acetate, and its applications. The second chapter discusses the results of our studies towards the total synthesis of 1!,25-dihydroxylumisterol via a proposed route containing two key steps; a cascade-inspired, Lewis-acid mediated cyclisation to form the steroid B-ring in I, and the dCr reaction of tosylacetic ester IV to give diene III. Successful syntheses, as well as problems encountered along this route will be discussed, as well as the measures taken to adapt the synthesis to circumvent these problems.

  • Some Transition Metal Complexes of Trivalent Phosphorus Esters

Yoke r The ligands in the series EtnP(OEt)3_11, n = 0 - 3,all form pseudotetrahedral high-spin bis -complexes with cobalt (II) chloride. Magnetic, spectrophotometric, conductivity, and molecular weight data show that the phosphorus ester ligands (but not the phosphine) also form five-coordinate low-spin tris-complexes; these can be isolated with the phosphonite and phosphinite ligands, while the existence of the tris -phosphite is marginal.At cobalt (II) to phosphorus ester mole ratios of 1:2, a mixture of species is present in all cases.All are non-conducting in nitrobenzene. The ester complexes are much more susceptible to autoxidation than is the phosphine complex.

Murtadha All rights reserved 2020 iii ABSTRACT ASYMMETRIC SYNTHESIS OF ORGANOPHOSPHATES AND THEIR DERIVATIVES Name: Murtadha, Batool J. University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. Jeremy Erb Organophosphorus compounds (OPs) are widely used in the agricultural industry especially in the pesticide market. Phosphates play a huge role as biological compounds in the form of energy carrier compounds like ATP, and medicine as antivirals. OPs have become increasingly important as evidenced by the publication of new methods devoted to their uses and synthesis. These well-established studies lay the basis for industrial organic derivatives of phosphorus preparations. The current work explored methods of synthesizing chiral organophosphate triesters. We experimented with different processes roughly divided into either an electrophilic or nucleophilic strategy using chiral Lewis acids, organocatalysts (HyperBTM), activating agents, and chiral auxiliaries with the goal of control stereoselectivity. These methods were explored through the use of different starting materials like POCl3, triethyl phosphate, methyl phosphordichloradate, and PSCl3.

  • Applications of Boronic Acids in Organic Synthesis
    Applications of Boronic Acids in Organic Synthesis A dissertation presented by Pavel Starkov in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY at UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Department of Chemistry Christopher Ingold Laboratories University College London 20 Gordon Street WC1H 0AJ London Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own work. Where information has been derived from other sources it has been clearly indicated so and acknowledged accordingly. /Pavel Starkov/ ii Abstract This thesis describes progress on the application of boronic acids and borate esters as catalysts and reagents in synthetic organic synthesis, focusing on two areas: one-pot enolate formation/aldol reactions and amide bond formation. Chapter 1 introduces the reader to boronic acids and derivatives thereof, their methods of preparation and their use in synthetic organic chemistry as reactants, reagents and catalysts. Chapter 2 covers current chemical methods and cellular alternatives for amide bond formation. Here, we also discuss our use of boron reagents for the activation of carboxylic acids as well as amides. Chapter 3 introduces a new concept in catalytic aldol reactions, i.e. an alternative strategy to access boron enolates in situ. The work covers successful demonstration of the feasibility of such an approach on an intramolecular system. A novel variation of aerobic Chan–Evans– Lam coupling, an intramolecular coupling of an aliphatic alcohol with a boronic acid using catalytic copper, is also introduced Chapter 4 builds on our observations on gold catalysis and especially that in relation to electrophilic halogenations. Chapter 5 contains full details of the experimental procedures.
