  • 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.

  • Toward Thermodynamically Stable Triplet Carbenes Yumiao Ma* BSJ Institute, Haidian, Beijing, 100084 [email protected] Abstr
    Toward Thermodynamically Stable Triplet Carbenes Yumiao Ma* BSJ Institute, Haidian, Beijing, 100084 [email protected] Abstract In sharp contrast to the widely studied and applied stable singlet carbenes, only several kinetically persistent triplet carbenes have been studied, and thermodynamically stable triplet carbenes are much less developed. With the Gibbs free energy of C-H bond insertion into methane as a probe, DFT calculations were employed to examine a variety of candidate molecules for stable triplet carbenes. Guided by these calculations, some molecules with significant stability against C-H insertion were designed by fine tuning of geometry and electronic structures. These compounds might be potential candidates for experimental development of stable triplet carbenes. Introduction Pioneered by Guy Bertrand, Armin Arduengo and others, stable singlet carbenes have been well developed since 1980s1-3, and have exhibited great importance as ligands, reagents, etc. On the other hand, stable, or even kinetically persistent triplet carbenes are still scarce. A persistent triplet carbene, 2, 2', 4, 4', 6, 6'-hexabromodiphenylcarbene, was reported by Hideo Tomioka et al in 19954, with a half-life at ~1 s. In 2001, persistent triplet carbene with half-life of 19 min at room temperature was reported5, which was a great breakthrough. Several other kinetically persistent triplet carbenes were also studied, and the half-life ranges from microseconds to a week6, 7. However, thermodynamically stable triplet carbenes are still unknown hitherto, to the best of our knowledge. In this work, a variety of potential candidates for stable triplet carbenes were designed and examined by quantum chemical calculations. Guided by calculations and rational design, some competitive candidates were obtained, which may be helpful for the development of stable triplet carbenes, and for the understanding of the chemical properties related to open shell organic compounds.

College of Pharmacy, Maharishi Markandeshwar University, Ambala, Haryana, India ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT This review includes detailed study of structures of various hydrazones synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activity. Hydrazone is a class of organic compounds with structure R 1R2C=NNH 2. Hydrazones containing an azomethine -NHN=CH- proton which leads to an important class of compounds for new drug development. Hydrazones are present in many of the bioactive heterocyclic compounds that are of very important use because of their various biological and clinical applications. Therefore, many researchers have synthesized these compounds as target structures and evaluated their antimicrobial activities. These observations have been guiding for the development of new hydrazones that possess varied biological activities. Key Words: Hydrazones, Hydrazide, Antifungal Activity, Antimicrobial Activity. ______________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION The need to design new compounds to deal with the resistant strains has become one of the most important areas of research today. Hydrazone is a versatile moiety that exhibits a wide variety of biological activities. A hydrazone is a class of organic compounds with the structure R1R2C=NNH 2. Hydrazones are basically related to ketones and aldehydes. Hydrazones are formed by the replacement of the oxygen of carbonyl compounds with the -NNH 2 functional group. Hydrazones act as reactants in many important reactions e.g.

  • Synthesis of Transition Metal N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes and Applications in Catalysis
    Université de Montréal Synthesis of Transition Metal N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes and Applications in Catalysis Par Michael Holtz-Mulholland Département de chimie Faculté des arts et des sciences Thèse présentée à la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales en vue de l’obtention du grade de philosophiæ doctor (Ph.D.) en chimie Août, 2014 © Michael Holtz-Mulholland, 2014 Université de Montréal Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales Cette thèse intitulée: Synthesis of Transition Metal N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes and Applications in Catalysis Présentée par: Michael Holtz-Mulholland A été évaluée par un jury composé des personnes suivantes: Pr. Davit Zargarian, président-rapporteur Pr. Shawn K. Collins, directeur de recherche Pr. André B. Charette, membre du jury Pr. Bruce A. Arndtsen, examinateur externe Pr. David Morse, représentant du doyen de la FAS Abstract A new class of C1-symmetric N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands has been developed. The new ligands exploit a biaryl methyne as a chiral relay, and an N-methyl group as a reactivity controlling element. The precursors for the new ligands were synthesized via a modular scheme that allows for facile diversification. Several of the new ligands were installed onto both copper and gold, generating mono N-heterocyclic carbene transition metal complexes. The new C1-symmetric copper complexes were tested as catalysts for the synthesis of binaphthols via the oxidative coupling of electron poor 2-naphthols. The new C1-symmetric ligands afforded higher yields than their C2-symmetric counterparts. During the course of the optimization, small molecule additives were found to modulate the reactivity of the copper catalyst.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT Abstract This thesis is divided into six chapters. Chapter one presents a review on metallocarbenoid chemistry and is divided into three parts. The first part gives a general survey of the influence of substituents on the reactivity and stability of free carbenes. The second part describes the reactions of transition metal carbenoids, particularly in relation to the oxidation state of the metal and the stoichiometry of carbenoid generation. The final part discusses the reactions of zinc carbenoids and the means of their formation. Chapter two is prefaced by a review on the generation and reactivity of organozinc carbenoids within the group, coupled with a mechanistic study of their formation.
