  • The Synthesis of Molecules Containing Quaternary Stereogenic Centers Via the Intramolecular Asymmetric Heck Reaction
    The Synthesis of Molecules Containing Quaternary Stereogenic Centers via the Intramolecular Asymmetric Heck Reaction Reported by Eric P. Gillis April 19, 2007 INTRODUCTION The enantioselective synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters continues to be a challenging endeavor and is a field of intense interest and development.1,,,,2 3 4 5 From the perspective of methods development, the asymmetric synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters poses a distinct challenge due to the sterically congested environment in which C-C bonds must be formed and stereochemical information must be transferred. Existing asymmetric methods have been applied successfully in desymmetrization processes that transform prochiral quaternary centers into stereodefined quaternary centers. However, for processes in which a quaternary stereocenter is created directly via a C-C bond forming reaction, only a few asymmetric reactions have been fruitful. The diversity in the array of methods that exist for the synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters is necessitated in part because of the number of distinct quaternary stereocenter architectures that are possible (Scheme 1). The construction of acyclic quaternary stereocenters is particularly challenging due to the number of degrees of freedom associated with these structures. However, promising results for the construction of these stereocenters via allylation,6 allylic alklyation,7 and Michael addition8 have been reported recently. For the synthesis of cyclic quaternary stereocenters a number of methods have been employed successfully including the intramolecular Heck reaction,9 alkylation,10 arylation,11 and Michael addition12. Fused bicyclic quaternary stereocenters are generally accessed via the desymmetrization of a prochiral quaternary center. In this regard, theoretically any SCHEME 1.

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].

  • 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

  • 1 Stilbenes Preparation and Analysis
    j1 1 Stilbenes Preparation and Analysis 1.1 General The name for stilbene (1,2-diphenylethylene) was derived from the Greek word stilbos, which means shining. There are two isomeric forms of 1,2-diphenylethylene: (E)-stilbene (trans-stilbene), which is not sterically hindered, and (Z)-stilbene (cis-stilbene), which is sterically hindered and therefore less stable. trans-stilbene cis-stilbene (E)-Stilbene has a melting point of about 125 C, while the melting point of (Z)-stilbene is 6 C. Stilbene is a relatively unreactive colorless compound practically insoluble in water [1]. trans-Stilbene isomerizes to cis-stilbene under the influence of light. The reverse path can be induced by heat or light. The stilbene feature is associated with intense absorption and fluorescence properties, which correspond to the excitation of p-electrons of the conjugated ethenediyl group into pà orbitals, as well as some other dynamic processes. The excited singlet state behavior of fl trans-stilbene is governed by uorescence from the S1 state that effectively competes with isomerization. This phenomenon of photochromism, namely, trans–cis photo- isomerization of stilbene derivatives, can be readily monitored by a single steady-state fluorescence technique. A necessary stage in the olefinic photoisomerization process, in the singlet or triplet excited state, involves twisting (about the former double bond) of stilbene fragments relative to one another. The chemistry and photochemistry of stilbenes have been extensively investigated for decades and have been reviewed [2–25]. Stilbene derivatives are synthesized relatively easily, are usually thermally and chemically stable, and possess absorption and fluorescence properties that are Stilbenes.

The results show that when this reaction takes place, it affords only the 5-exo-trig cyclization products, viz. dihydrobenzofurans or indoles. Depending on the tethered heteroatom (O or N), the outcome of the cyclization differs. While allylic ethers are relatively poor substrates that undergo a side elimination and need an intracyclic double bond to proceed, allylic amines react well and afford indoline and indole derivatives. Finally, the synthesis of the trinuclear ACE core of a morphine-like skeleton was achieved by using NiBr2bipy catalysis. Introduction Carbometalation is a reaction involving the addition of an thesis of pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates using organometallic species to a nonactivated alkene or alkyne nonactivated olefins with high regio- and stereoselectivity [7].

    Formal Synthesis of (+/-) Morphine via an Oxy-Cope/Claisen/Ene Reaction Cascade by Joel Marcotte Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science The University of Ottawa August, 2012 © Joel Marcotte, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 ABSTRACT For years now, opium alkaloids and morphinans have been attractive synthetic targets for numerous organic chemists due to their important biological activity and interesting molecular architecture. Morphine is one of the most potent analgesic drugs used to alleviate severe pain. Our research group maintains a longstanding interest in tandem pericyclic reactions such as the oxy-Cope/Claisen/ene reaction cascade and their application to the total synthesis of complex natural products. Herein we report the ventures towards the formal synthesis of (+/-)-morphine based on the novel tandem oxy- Cope/Claisen/ene reaction developed in our laboratory. These three highly stereoselective pericyclic reactions occurring in a domino fashion generate the morphinan core structure 2 via precursor 1 after only 7 steps. The formal synthesis culminated in the production of 3 after a total of 18 linear steps, with an overall yield of 1.0%, successfully intersecting two previous syntheses of the alkaloids, namely the ones of Taber (2002) and Magnus (2009). ii À ma famille, sans qui rien de cela n’aurait été possible iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to start by thanking my supervisor Dr. Louis Barriault, who has been my mentor in chemistry for the past three years. I am grateful for his guidance, patience and encouragements, especially when facing the many challenges that awaited me on this project.

  • Chapter 1 the Basic Chemistry of Organopalladium Compounds
    Chapter 1 The Basic Chemistry of Organopalladium Compounds 1.1 Characteristic Features of Pd-Promoted or -Catalyzed Reactions There are several features which make reactions involving Pd catalysts and reagents particularly useful and versatile among many transition metals used for organic synthesis. Most importantly, Pd catalysts offer an abundance of possibilities of carbon–carbon bond formation. Importance of the carbon–carbon bond forma- tion in organic synthesis needs no explanation. No other transition metals can offer such versatile methods of the carbon–carbon bond formations as Pd. Tol- erance of Pd catalysts and reagents to many functional groups such as carbonyl and hydroxy groups is the second important feature. Pd-catalyzed reactions can be carried out without protection of these functional groups. Although reactions involving Pd should be carried out carefully, Pd reagents and catalysts are not very sensitive to oxygen and moisture, and even to acid in many reactions catalyzed by Pd–phosphine complexes. It is enough to apply precautions to avoid oxidation of coordinated phosphines, and this can be done easily. On the other hand, the Ni(0) complex is extremely sensitive to oxygen. Of course, Pd is a noble metal and expensive. Its price frequently fluctuates drastically. A few years ago, Pd was more expensive than Pt and Au but cheaper than Rh. As of October 2003, the comparative prices of the noble metals were: Pd (1), Au (1.8), Rh (2.8), Pt (3.3), Ru (0.2). Recently the price of Pd has dropped dramatically, and Pt is currently the most expensive noble metal. Also, the toxicity of Pd has posed no serious problem so far.
