Cover design:KunkelLopka¨ GmbH Printed on acid-free paper Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) To Vivien Foreword I don't have my name on anything that I don't really do. –Heidi Klum Can the organic chemists associated with so-called “Named Reactions” make the same claim as supermodel Heidi Klum? Many scholars of chemistry do not hesitate to point out that the names associated with “name reactions” are often not the actual inventors. For instance, the Arndt–Eistert reaction has nothing to do with either Arndt or Eistert, Pummerer did not discover the “Pummerer” rearrangement, and even the famous Birch reduction owes its initial discovery to someone named Charles Wooster (first reported in a DuPont patent). The list goes on and on… But does that mean we should ignore, boycott, or outlaw “named reactions”? Absolutely not. The above examples are merely exceptions to the rule. In fact, the chemists associated with name reactions are typically the original discoverers, contribute greatly to its general use, and/or are the first to popularize the transformation. Regardless of the controversial history underlying certain named reactions, it is the students of organic chemistry who benefit the most from the cataloging of reactions by name. Indeed, it is with education in mind that Dr. Jack Li has masterfully brought the chemical community the latest edition of Name Reactions. It is clear why this beautiful treatise has rapidly become a bestseller within the chemical community. The quintessence of hundreds of named reactions is encapsulated in a concise format that is ideal for students and seasoned chemists alike. Detailed mechanistic and occasionally even historical details are given for hundreds of reactions along with key references. This “must- have” book will undoubtedly find a place on the bookshelves of all serious practitioners and students of the art and science of synthesis. Phil S. Baran May 2009 La Jolla, California Preface The first three editions of this book have been warmly embraced by the organic chemistry community. Many readers have indicated that while they like the detailed mechanisms, they prefer to have more real case applications in synthesis. For this edition, we have revolutionized the format, which finally liberated more space to accomodate many more synthetic examples. As a consequence, the subtitle of the book has been changed to A Collection of Detailed Mechanisms and Synthetic Applications. When putting together the 4th edition, I also strived to cap- ture the latest references, up to 2009 whenever possible. Coincidentally, my daughter Vivien, a sophomore at the University of Michigan, will take soon Or- ganic Chemistry. I hope she finds this book useful in preparing for her exams. I am very much indebted to the readers who have kindly written to me with suggestions, which helped transform this book into a useful reference book for senior undergrate and graduate students around the world—the second edition was translated to both Chinese and Russian. I am grateful to my good friend Derek A. Pflum at Ash Stevens Inc. who kindly proofead the entire manuscript and provided many invaluable suggestions. Prof. Derrick L. J. Clive at University of Alberta also proofread the first half of the manuscript and offered helpful comments. I also wish to thank Prof. Phil S. Baran at Scripps Research Institute and his students, Tanja Gulder, Yoshi Ishihara, Chad A. Lewis, Jonathan Lockner, Jun Cindy Shi, and Ian B. Seiple for proofreading the final draft of the manuscript. Their knowledge and time have tremendously enhanced the quality of this book. Any remaining errors are, of course, solely my own responsibility. As always, I welcome your critique!

  • Expanding the Scope of Thiophene Based Semiconductors: Perfluoroalkylated Materials and Fused Thienoacenes
    Expanding the Scope of Thiophene Based Semiconductors: Perfluoroalkylated Materials and Fused Thienoacenes Hayden Thompson Black A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry Chapel Hill 2012 Approved By: Dr. Valerie Sheares Ashby Dr. James Cahoon Dr. Carrie Donley Dr. Wei You Dr. Malcolm Forbes ABSTRACT HAYDEN THOMPSON BLACK: Expanding the Scope of Thiophene Based Semiconductors: Perfluoroalkylated Materials and Fused thienoacenes (Under the direction of Valerie Sheares Ashby) Thiophene based semiconductors with new molecular and macromolecular structures were explored for applications in field effect transistors. Perfluoroalkylation was studied both as a means for controlling the self-assembly properties of polythiophenes, as well as modifying the molecular orbital energies of a series of oligothiophenes. End-perfluoroalkylation of poly(3-hexylthiophene) resulted in interesting self-assembly of the polymer into a bilayer vesicle. Similar fluorophilic assembly may be useful for controlling blend morphologies in heterojunction based devices. On the other hand, perfluoroalkylation of small molecule thiophene semiconductors leads to low lying LUMO levels, and can be used to promote electron injection for n-type transistor devices. This strategy was employed in combination with a π-electron deficient benzothiadiazole to afford a new n-type semiconductor with an exceptionally low LUMO. Monoperfluoroalkylated oligothiophenes were also synthesized and studied in field effect transistors for the first time. In addition, two new fused thienoacene compounds were synthesized and their crystal structures were analyzed. The fused compounds showed exceptional π-π stacking and assembled into well defined one-dimensional microcrystals from the vapor phase.

  • Synthetic Strategies to Access Biologically Important Fluorinated Motifs: Fluoroalkenes and Difluoroketones by Ming-Hsiu Yang Su
    Synthetic Strategies to Access Biologically Important Fluorinated Motifs: Fluoroalkenes and Difluoroketones By Ming-Hsiu Yang Submitted to the graduate degree program in Medicinal Chemistry and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Chairperson Ryan A. Altman Michael D. Clift Apurba Dutta Michael F. Rafferty Jon A. Tunge Date Defended: April 26, 2017 The Dissertation Committee for Ming-Hsiu Yang certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Synthetic Strategies to Access Biologically Important Fluorinated Motifs: Fluoroalkenes and Difluoroketones Chairperson Ryan A. Altman Date Approved: April 26, 2017 ii Abstract Ming-Hsiu Yang Department of Medicinal Chemistry, April 2017 The University of Kansas Fluorine plays an important role in drug design, because of some unique features imparted by fluorine. The incorporation of fluorine into small molecules can modulate molecular physicochemical properties, metabolic stability, lipophilicity, and binding affinity to the target proteins. However, few fluorinated molecules are biosynthesized by enzymes. This means incorporating fluorine into the molecules relies on synthetic methods. Thus, efficient synthetic strategies to access the molecules bearing a variety of privileged fluorinated moieties are important for drug discovery. Fluoroalkenes are an isopolar and isosteric mimic of an amide bond with distinct biophysical properties, including decreased H-bond donating and accepting abilities, increased lipophilicity, and metabolic stability. Moreover, fluoroalkenes can also serve as probes for conducting conformational analyses of amides. These potential applications require the development of efficient methods to access fluoroalkenes. In chapter 2, a Shapiro fluorination strategy to access peptidomimetic fluoroalkenes is demonstrated.

  • Intramolecular Ene Reactions of Functionalised Nitroso Compounds
    INTRAMOLECULAR ENE REACTIONS OF FUNCTIONALISED NITROSO COMPOUNDS A Thesis Presented by Sandra Luengo Arratta In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Award of the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Christopher Ingold Laboratories Department of Chemistry University College London 20 Gordon Street London WC1H 0AJ July 2010 DECLARATION I Sandra Luengo Arratta, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where work has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ABSTRACT This thesis concerns the generation of geminally functionalised nitroso compounds and their subsequent use in intramolecular ene reactions of types I and II, in order to generate hydroxylamine derivatives which can evolve to the corresponding nitrones. The product nitrones can then be trapped in the inter- or intramolecular mode by a variety of reactions, including 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions, thereby leading to diversity oriented synthesis. The first section comprises the chemistry of the nitroso group with a brief discussion of the current methods for their generation together with the scope and limitations of these methods for carrying out nitroso ene reactions, with different examples of its potential as a powerful synthetic method to generate target drugs. The second chapter describes the results of the research programme and opens with the development of methods for the generation of functionalised nitroso compounds from different precursors including oximes and nitro compounds, using a range of reactants and conditions. The application of these methods in intramolecular nitroso ene reactions is then discussed. Chapter three presents the conclusions which have been drawn from the work presented in chapter two, and provides suggestions for possible directions of this research in the future.
