1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) is a polar, strongly hydrogen bond-donating solvent that has found numerous uses in organic synthesis due to its ability stabilize ionic species, transfer protons, and engage range of other intermolecular interactions. The use this exponentially increased the past decade become choice some areas, such as C–H functionalization chemistry. In review, following brief history HFIP an overview physical properties, literature examples reactions using or additive are presented, emphasizing effect each reaction.

Organocatalytic Atroposelective Synthesis of N−N Axially Chiral Indoles and Pyrroles by De Novo Ring Formation

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 61(17)

Опубликована: Янв. 26, 2022

Abstract The first highly atroposelective construction of N−N axially chiral indole scaffolds was established via a new strategy de novo ring formation. This makes use the organocatalytic asymmetric Paal–Knorr reaction well‐designed N ‐aminoindoles with 1,4‐diketones, thus affording ‐pyrrolylindoles in high yields and excellent atroposelectivities (up to 98 % yield, 96 ee). In addition, this is applicable for synthesis bispyrroles 97 More importantly, such heterocycles can be converted into organocatalysts applications catalysis, some molecules display potent anticancer activity. work not only provides but also offers members atropisomer family promising synthetic medicinal chemistry.

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Axially Chiral 3,3'‐Bisindoles by Direct Coupling of Indole Rings

Chinese Journal of Chemistry, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 40(18), С. 2151 - 2160

Опубликована: Май 31, 2022

Comprehensive Summary A new strategy for the enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral 3,3'‐bisindoles was devised by direct coupling two indole rings. This makes use C3‐umpolung reactivity 2‐indolylmethanols, which enables catalytic asymmetric addition reaction 2‐indolylmethanols with rationally designed 2‐substituted indoles, thus constructing 3,3'‐bisindole scaffolds in overall excellent yields (up to 98%) high enantioselectivities 96 : 4 er). approach not only has overcome challenges five‐five‐membered heterobiaryls, but also represents a application catalysis. More importantly, this class can undergo variety post‐functionalizations give 3,3'‐bisindole‐based organocatalysts, have found their preliminary applications

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 62(15)

Опубликована: Фев. 7, 2023

This study establishes the first organocatalytic enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral N,N'-bisindoles via phosphoric acid-catalyzed formal (3+2) cycloadditions indole-based enaminones as novel platform molecules with 2,3-diketoesters, where de novo indole-ring formation is involved. Using this new strategy, various were synthesized in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 87 % yield 96 ee). More importantly, class exhibited some degree cytotoxicity toward cancer cells was derived into phosphine ligands high catalytic activity. provides a strategy for using asymmetric organocatalysis realize applications such scaffolds medicinal chemistry catalysis.

Asymmetric (4+n) Cycloadditions of Indolyldimethanols for the Synthesis of Enantioenriched Indole‐Fused Rings

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 62(37)

Опубликована: Июнь 24, 2023

Catalytic asymmetric construction of chiral indole-fused rings has become an important issue in the chemical community because significance such scaffolds. In this work, we have accomplished first catalytic (4+2) and (4+3) cycloadditions 2,3-indolyldimethanols by using indoles 2-naphthols as suitable reaction partners under catalysis phosphoric acids, constructing enantioenriched six-membered seven-membered high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. addition, approach is used to realize enantioselective challenging tetrahydroindolocarbazole scaffolds, which are found show promising anticancer activity. More importantly, theoretical calculations pathways activation mode offer in-depth understanding class indolylmethanols. This work not only settles challenges realizing indolyldimethanols but also provides a powerful strategy for rings.

Опубликована: Янв. 30, 2024

Abstract Herein, we have synthesized multifunctionalized 2‐oxa‐3‐azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes, which are considered potential bioisosteres for meta ‐substituted arenes, through Eu(OTf) 3 ‐catalyzed formal dipolar [4π+2σ] cycloaddition of bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes with nitrones. This methodology represents the initial instance fabricating bicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes adorned multiple heteroatoms. The protocol exhibits both mild reaction conditions and a good tolerance various functional groups. Computational density theory calculations support that mechanism likely involves nucleophilic addition nitrones to bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes, succeeded by an intramolecular cyclization. synthetic utility this novel has been demonstrated in concise synthesis analogue Rupatadine.
