Catalytic Formal [2π+2σ] Cycloaddition of Aldehydes with Bicyclobutanes: Expedient Access to Polysubstituted 2‐Oxabicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 62(34)

Published: June 12, 2023

Synthesis of bicyclic scaffolds has attracted tremendous attention because they are playing an important role as saturated bioisosteres benzenoids in modern drug discovery. Here, we report a BF3 -catalyzed [2π+2σ] cycloaddition aldehydes with bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) to access polysubstituted 2-oxabicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes. A new kind BCB containing acyl pyrazole group was invented, which not only significantly facilitates the reactions, but can also serve handle for diverse downstream transformations. Furthermore, aryl and vinyl epoxides be utilized substrates undergo BCBs after situ rearrangement aldehydes. We anticipate that our results will promote challenging sp3 -rich frameworks exploration BCB-based chemistry.

Silver‐Catalyzed Dearomative [2π+2σ] Cycloadditions of Indoles with Bicyclobutanes: Access to Indoline Fused Bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes**

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 62(48)

Published: Oct. 12, 2023

Bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes (BCHs) are becoming ever more important in drug design and development as bridged scaffolds that provide underexplored chemical space, but difficult to access. Here a silver-catalyzed dearomative [2π+2σ] cycloaddition strategy for the synthesis of indoline fused BCHs from N-unprotected indoles bicyclobutane precursors is described. The strain-release operates under mild conditions, tolerating wide range functional groups. It capable forming with up four contiguous quaternary carbon centers, achieving yields 99 %. In addition, scale-up experiment synthetic transformations cycloadducts further highlighted utility.

Abstract The cycloaddition reaction involving bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) offers a versatile and efficient synthetic platform for producing C(sp 3 )‐rich rigid bridged ring scaffolds, which act as phenyl bioisosteres. However, there is scarcity of catalytic asymmetric cycloadditions BCBs to fulfill the need enantioenriched saturated bicycles in drug design development. In this study, an synthesis valuable azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes (aza‐BCHs) by enantioselective zinc‐catalyzed (3+2) with imines reported. proceeds effectively novel type BCB that incorporates 2‐acyl imidazole group diverse array alkynyl‐ aryl‐substituted imines. target aza‐BCHs, consist α‐chiral amine fragments two quaternary carbon centers, are efficiently synthesized up 94 % 96.5:3.5 er under mild conditions. Experimental computational studies reveal follows concerted nucleophilic ring‐opening mechanism This distinct from previous on Lewis acid‐catalyzed BCBs.

Skeletal metalation of lactams through a carbonyl-to-nickel-exchange logic

Nature Communications, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 14(1)

Published: Aug. 29, 2023

Classical metalation reactions such as the metal-halogen exchange have had a transformative impact on organic synthesis owing to their broad applicability in building carbon-carbon bonds from carbon-halogen bonds. Extending logic metal-carbon would enable direct modification of carbon frameworks with new implications retrosynthetic analysis. However, transformation requires selective cleavage highly inert chemical and formation stable intermediates amenable further synthetic elaborations, hence its development has remained considerably challenging. Here we introduce skeletal strategy that allows lactams, prevalent motif bioactive molecules, be readily converted into well-defined, synthetically useful organonickel reagents. The reaction features activation unstrained amide C-N mediated by an easily prepared Ni(0) reagent, followed CO deinsertion dissociation under mild room temperature conditions formal carbonyl-to-nickel-exchange process. underlying principles this unique reactivity are rationalized organometallic computational studies. is applied excision isotope underscoring potential synthesis.
