Azirinyl-substituted conjugated ynones were first synthesized by the reaction of lithiated acetylenes with 2H-azirine-2-carbonyl chlorides. Azirinyl ethynyl ketones containing only a C(O)C≡CR substituent at position 2 azirine ring are good precursors for obtaining α-C(O)C≡CR substituted NH-pyrroles and 5-[C(O)C≡CR]-substituted NH-imidazoles, reacting selectively moiety 1,3-diketones arylamidines, respectively. Various N-heterocyclic hybrids (pyrrole-pyrimidine, imidazole-pyrimidine, pyrrole-isoxazole, imidazole-isoxazole, pyrimidine-pyrrole-thiophene, pyrrole-pyrimidine-thiophene, imidazole-pyrimidine-thiophene, isoxazole-pyrrole-thiophene) have been prepared based on orthogonal or domino reactions an moieties azirinyl ketones.

Cyclic Bifunctional Reagents Enabling a Strain-Release-Driven Formal [3 + 2] Cycloaddition of 2H-Azirines by Cascade Energy Transfer

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 10, 2025

The energy transfer (EnT)-catalyzed ring opening and further decarboxylation of isoxazole-5(4H)-ones enables the in situ generation strained 2H-azirines. Subsequent selective C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond cleavage azirine intermediate allows a formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition with wide range electrophiles, unlocking access to valuable pyrroline-type moieties. Mechanistic experiments combination density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed unique nature EnT-cascade process for three-membered aza-cycle while providing insight into regio- diastereoselectivity annulation. This mild straightforward method ensures rapid construction highly substituted cyclic imines, which can be easily converted pyrrolidines, fused oxaziridines, biologically relevant β-amino acid precursors.

Telescoped Flow Synthesis of Azacyclic Scaffolds Exploiting the Chromoselective Photolysis of Vinyl Azides and Azirines

Chemistry - A European Journal, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 30(38)

Опубликована: Май 8, 2024

An efficient chromoselective photochemical process is presented for the synthesis of 2H-azirines and 1,3-diazabicylo[3.1.0]hex-3-enes from readily available vinyl azides. The method exploits continuous flow photochemistry to enable safe consumption hazardous azide group provides uniform irradiation using high-power LEDs at 365-450 nm. Additionally, a scaled telescoped has been developed providing access drug-like 1,6-dihydropyrimidines pyrimidines via integrated ring-expansion oxidation reactions. Given prevalence various azacyclic targets in pharmaceutical, agrochemical materials applications it anticipated that this methodology will further exploitations these important scaffolds.

Employing Metadynamics to Predict the Membrane Partitioning of Carboxy-2H-Azirine Natural Products

Опубликована: Апрель 16, 2024

Natural products have diverse chemical structures and biological activities which often serve as sources of new therapeutic agents. Those containing a carboxy-2H-azirine moiety are an exciting target for investigation due in part to the broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity these compounds significant space novel development offered by this unique scaffold. The moiety, including those appended well-characterized scaffolds, is understudied, creates challenge understanding potential modes inhibition. In particular, some known natural product carboxy-2H-azirines long hydrophobic tails, might lead amphipathicity implicate them membrane associated processes. Metadynamics effective method calculating free energy changes with embedding study, we examined small set products, analogs alkyl chains, geometric isomers, one comprising simple core. We compared physiochemical properties established embedders similar scaffolds. This was intended isolate group understand molecular influences on partitioning. To accomplish this, developed force field 2H-azirine functional performed metadynamics simulations partitioning into model (75 % POPE, 25 POPG) from aqueous solution. determine that likely hydrophilic, imbuing chain binding molecules they were compared. For analogs, headgroup stays within 1 nm phosphate layer, while lacking partitions completely

Photochemical Synthesis and Ring‐Opening of Aziridines and Epoxides: State‐of‐the‐Art

ChemPhotoChem, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 8(9)

Опубликована: Май 13, 2024

Abstract The development of greener methods for the preparation three‐membered rings has increased in last decade, not only due to their biological activity but also ring strain those heterocycles that make them useful precursors more complex molecules. In this work, visible‐light‐promoted synthesis and ring‐opening aziridines epoxides, reported five years, were reviewed. Both homogeneous heterogeneous catalysts discussed and, addition, plausible mechanism pathways highlighted.
