Copper-catalyzed enantioselective 1,4-conjugate addition of dialkylzinc reagents to α,β- and α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated ketones

An enantioselective Cu(II)-catalyzed conjugate addition of dialkylzinc reagents to α,β- or α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated ketones with chiral cyclohexane-based amidophosphine ligands was developed. With 2 mol% of Cu(OAc)₂·H₂O/L5, the conjugate addition of diethylzinc to α,β-unsaturated ketones was achieved in good-to-excellent yields (up to 98%) and high enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee). This catalytic system was shown to be efficient for the 1,4-conjugate addition of Et₂Zn to (2E,4E)-1,5-diphenylpenta-2,4-dien-1-one with 85% yield and 90% ee. Moreover, with 1 mol% of Cu(OTf)₂/L11, the conjugate addition of α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated ketones was accomplished with 1,4-regioselectivity, good yields (79–86%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee).     

1,4-Addition of tetraethyl fluoromethylenebisphosphonate to α,β-unsaturated compounds

Tetraethyl fluoromethylenebisphosphonate in the presence of cesium carbonate in DMF undergoes efficient 1,4-addition to Michael acceptors having terminal double bond such as α,β-unsaturated ketones, esters, sulfones, sulfoxides, and phosphonates to yield the corresponding adducts (α-alkyl-α-fluoromethylenebisphosphonates) in good to excellent yields.     

Palladium-catalyzed 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated N-acylpyrroles

Highly stereoselective asymmetric 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated N-acylpyrroles catalyzed by a PCP pincer-Pd complex has been developed for the synthesis of chiral phosphines with excellent stereoselectivity (91-99% ee) under mild conditions. The products obtained can be further converted into chiral phosphine-oxazoline ligands.     

Synthesis of 2-(β-Hetarylaminoethyl)-3,5,6-trichloro-1,4-benzoquinones

4,6,7-Trichloro-2-hetarylamino-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furans have been prepared from 4,6,7-trichloro-2,5-dihydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan and hetarylamines. Reductive opening of the dihydrobenzofuran ring in these compounds gave 3,5,6-trichloro-2-(-hetarylaminoethyl)hydroquinones. The latter could be oxidised to the target 3,5,6-trichloro-2-(-hetarylaminoethyl)-1,4-benzoquinones which are novel 1,4-benzoquinone derivatives with intramolecular charge transfer.     

Palladium-catalyzed 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes

A highly stereoselective asymmetric 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by a bis(phosphine) pincer-Pd complex has been developed for the synthesis of chiral phosphines with excellent stereoselectivity (up to 98% ee) under mild conditions. The application of the current method to the synthesis of enantiopure bisphosphine and its pincer-Pd complex has also been demonstrated.     

Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of sodium tetraarylborates to β,β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated esters

A rhodium-catalyzed 1,4-addition of sodium tetraarylborates to β,β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated esters has been developed. Highly efficient asymmetric catalysis has also been described to create quaternary carbon stereocenters at the β-position of esters by tuning the ester group of substrates and employing a readily available chiral diene ligand.     

Reaction of aminals of conjugated unsaturated ω-dimethylaminoaldehydes with 1,2-, 1,3-, 1,4-, 1,5-, and 1,6-diketones

The condensation of aminals of -dimethylaminoacrolein and 5-dimethylaminopenta-2,4-dienal with cyclic and acyclic 1,2-, 1,3-, 1,4-, 1,5-, and 1,6-diketones was studied. A series of previously unknown bis(,-dimethylaminopolyenyl)diketones was synthesized; their structures were established by means of¹H and¹³C NMR spectroscopies. The electron absorption spectra were employed to study the mutual influence of -aminopolyene chromophores separated by two C=O groups.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Extracellular Enzymes of the White-Rot Fungus Fomes fomentarius and Purification of 1,4-β-Glucosidase

Production of the lignocellulose-degrading enzymes endo-1,4-β-glucanase, 1,4-β-glucosidase, cellobiohydrolase, endo-1,4-β-xylanase, 1,4-β-xylosidase, Mn peroxidase, and laccase was characterized in a common wood-rotting fungus Fomes fomentarius, a species able to efficiently decompose dead wood, and compared to the production in eight other fungal species. The main aim of this study was to characterize the 1,4-β-glucosidase produced by F. fomentarius that was produced in high quantities in liquid stationary culture (25.9 U?ml^?1), at least threefold compared to other saprotrophic basidiomycetes, such as Rhodocollybia butyracea, Hypholoma fasciculare, Irpex lacteus, Fomitopsis pinicola, Pleurotus ostreatus, Piptoporus betulinus, and Gymnopus sp. (between 0.7 and 7.9 U?ml^?1). The 1,4-β-glucosidase enzyme was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by both anion-exchange and size-exclusion chromatography. A single 1,4-β-glucosidase was found to have an apparent molecular mass of 58 kDa and a pI of 6.7. The enzyme exhibited high thermotolerance with an optimum temperature of 60 °C. Maximal activity was found in the pH range of 4.5–5.0, and K _M and V _max values were 62 μM and 15.8 μmol?min^?1?l^?1, respectively, when p-nitrophenylglucoside was used as a substrate. The enzyme was competitively inhibited by glucose with a K _i of 3.37 mM. The enzyme also acted on p-nitrophenylxyloside, p-nitrophenylcellobioside, p-nitrophenylgalactoside, and p-nitrophenylmannoside with optimal pH values of 6.0, 3.5, 5.0, and 4.0–6.0, respectively. The combination of relatively low molecular mass and low K _M value make the 1,4-β-glucosidase a promising enzyme for biotechnological applications.     

Application of Endo-β-1,4,d-mannanase and Cellulase for the Release of Mannooligosaccharides from Steam-Pretreated Spent Coffee Ground

Spent coffee ground (SCG), a present waste stream from instant coffee production, represents a potential feedstock for mannooligosaccharides (MOS) production. MOS can be used in nutraceutical products for humans/animals or added to instant coffee, increasing process yield and improving product health properties. The SCG was evaluated for MOS production by steam pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis with a recombinant mannanase and a commercial cellulase cocktail (Acremonium, Bioshigen Co. Ltd, Japan). The mannanase was produced using a recombinant strain of Yarrowia lipolytica, used to produce and secrete endo-1,4-β,d-mannanase from Aspergillus aculeatus in bioreactor cultures. Endo-1,4-β,d-mannanase was produced with an activity of 183.5 U/mL and 0.23 mg protein/mL. The enzyme had an optimum temperature of 80 °C, and the activity in the supernatant was improved by 150 % by supplementation with 0.2 % sodium benzoate and 35 % sorbitol as a preservative and stabiliser, respectively. The steam pretreatment of SCG improved the enzymatic digestibility of SCG, thus reducing the required enzyme dosage for MOS release. Combined enzymatic hydrolysis of untreated or steam-pretreated (150, 190 and 200 °C for 10 min) SCG with mannanase and cellulase cocktail resulted in 36–57 % (based on mannan content) of MOS production with a degree of polymerization of up to 6. The untreated material required at least 1 % of both mannanase and cellulase loading. The optimum mannanase and cellulase loadings for pretreated SCG hydrolysis were between 0.3 and 1 and 0.4 and 0.8 %, respectively. Statistical analysis suggested additive effect between cellulase cocktail and mannanase on MOS release, with no indication of synergism observed.     

Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of arylboron reagents to α,β-unsaturated esters

Reaction of arylboron reagents, arylboronic acids or arylborates, which are readily accessible by lithiation of aryl bromides followed by treatment with trimethoxyborane, with α,β-unsaturated esters in the presence of rhodium/(S)-binap catalyst proceeded with high enantioselectivity to give high yields of optically active β-aryl esters of up to 98% ee. The enantioselectivity depends on the steric bulkiness of the ester moiety.     

Synthesis of esters of α-chloroacetoxy-β,β,β,-trichloroethylphosphonic acids

Summary The synthesis of 11 previously unreported dialkyl esters of -mono-, -di-, and -trichloroacetoxy-,,-trichloroethylphosphonic acids has been effected.     

Characterization of a New 1,3-1,4-β-Glucanase Gene from Bacillus tequilensis CGX5-1

1,3-1,4-β-Glucanase received great interest due to its application in brewing and feed industries. Application of 1,3-1,4-β-glucanase in brewing industry helps make up for the defect that plant-derived β-glucanases are heat-sensitive. A new strain, CGX5-1, exhibited remarkable 1,3-1,4-β-glucanase, was isolated from Asian giant hornet nest and identified Bacillus tequilensis. Moreover, a new 1,3-1,4-β-glucanase gene from B. tequilensis was cloned and measured to be 720 bp encoding 239 amino acids, with a predicted molecular weight of 26.9 kDa. After expressed in Escherichia coli BL21, active recombinant enzyme of 24 kDa was detected in the supernatant of cell culture, with the activity of 2,978.2 U/mL. The new enzyme was stable in the pH 5.0–7.5 with the highest activity measured at pH 6.0. Moreover, it is thermostable within 45 to 60 °C. The property of the new recombinant enzyme makes this enzyme a broad prospect in brewing industry. Moreover, this is the first report on 1,3-1,4-β-glucanase produced by B. tequilensis.     

NHC–copper-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated ketones

N-Heterocyclic carbene–copper-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated ketones was developed for the synthesis of chiral phosphorus derivatives in high yields with moderate enantioselectivity under mild conditions.     

Use of the Pictet-Spengler reaction for the synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carbolines and 1,4-disubstituted-β-carbolines: formation of γ-carbolines

Microwave-assisted conjugate addition of indole on nitro-olefins furnished nitro compounds, which were reduced to tryptamines. Further, by using Pictet-Spengler condensation, new 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carbolines were synthesized in diastereoselective manner. Dehydrogenation of the tetrahydro-β-carbolines produced new 1,4-disubstituted-β-carbolines. As a new observation, in some of the cases, Pictet-Spengler condensation and dehydrogenation gave two products, namely 1,4-disubstituted-β-carbolines and 1,4-disubstituted-γ-carbolines. A mechanism is proposed for this observation.     

A new resolution of (1α,2β,3α,4β)-2,3-dibromocyclohex-5-en-1,4-diol by lipase from Mucor miehei

An efficient resolution of 2,3-dibromocyclohex-5-en-1,4-diol has been carried out, using Mucor miehei lipase operating in an organic solvent. The enantioforms obtained may find application in the preparation of chiral conduritols.     

Iodine-catalyzed 1,4-addition of 2-(trimethylsilyloxy)furan to α,β-unsaturated ketones: a facile synthesis of γ-butenolides

The α,β-unsaturated compounds undergo smooth conjugate addition with 2-(trimethylsilyloxy)furan (TMSF) in the presence of 10 mol % of iodine under mild and neutral conditions to afford the corresponding γ-substituted butenolides in high yields and with good diastereoselectivity. The use of iodine makes this procedure simple, convenient and cost effective.     

Interactions of amphiphilic drugs withα-,β-, andγ-cyclodextrins

The association of several amphiphilic drugs with -, -, and -cyclodextrins has been measured by use of drug-sensitive electrodes. Drugs investigated are hydrochlorides of chlorpromazine, dibucaine, tetracaine, and procaine, and valethamate bromide. Each drug forms the drug:cyclodextrin=11 complex with - and -cyclodextrin, and both the 11 and 21 complex with -cyclodextrin, except valethamate which only forms the 11 complex. The strength of the 11 complex formations is in the order of CyD>-CyD>-CyD. The association constant of the 21 complex in drug--CyD is larger than that of 11 complex. The free energy change of the conplex formation has a positive correlation with that of the micelle formation of drugs. The deviation from this relation is explained in terms of fittability of the bulky hydrophobic group of drugs into the cyclodextrin's cavity. The free energy change for the complex formation between chlopromazine or valethamate and -CyD is governed by the enthalpy term and not by the entropy term which controls the surfactant--CyD interactions.
