Structural requirements in chiral diphosphine-rhodium complexes. X asymmetric homogeneous hydrogenation of z-N-acetyldehydroamino acids and esters with (1R,2R)-trans-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)cyclobutane/rhodium(I) complexes.

Z--acetamidocinnamate esters were hydrogenated with neutral rhodium(I) complexes containing (1R,2R)-trans-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)cyclobutane. Increasing the steric bulk of the alcohol moiety in the unsaturated esters had little influence upon the optical purity of the N-acetylphanylalanine ester products. In the series Me, Et, i-Pr, and t-Bu the optical purity decreased from 44 % ee-(R) [Me] to 40 % ee-(R) [t-Bu]. The chiral cyclobutane diphosphine appears to be only slightly more effective than the heterocyclic DIOP when ring-substituted Z--acetamidocinnamic acids are hydrogenated with neutral rhodium(I) complexes without the addition of triethylamine. Addition of triethylamine to the solvent blend seems to be more beneficial to the cyclobutane analogue than to DIOP.     

Stereoselective hydrocoupling of [(1R)-exo]-3-exo-(diphenylmethyl)bornyl cinnamates by electroreduction

[reaction: see text]. The chiral auxiliary [(1R)-exo]-3-exo-(diphenylmethyl)borneol, synthesized from (1R)-(+)-camphor in three steps, was highly effective for the stereoselective hydrocoupling of its cinnamates by electroreduction. From the resulting hydrodimers, (3R,4R)-3,4-diaryladipic acid esters and (3R,4R)-3,4-diarylhexane-1,6-diols were synthesized in 87-95% ee.     

Synthesis, characterization, and structural studies of mixed-ligand diorganotin esters, [R2Sn(OP(O)(OH)Ph)(OS(O)2R1)]n [R = n-Bu, R1 = Me (1), n-Pr(2); R = Et, R1 = Me (3)] with 1D and 3D coordination polymeric motifs

Mixed-ligand diorganotin esters, [R 2Sn(OP(O)(OH)Ph)(OS(O) 2R (1))] n [R = n-Bu, R (1) = Me ( 1), n-Pr ( 2); R = Et, R (1) = Me ( 3)], have been synthesized by reacting the tin precursors, R 2Sn(OR (1))OS(O) 2R with an equimolar amount of phenylphosphonic acid under mild conditions (room temperature, 6-8 h, CH 2Cl 2). These have been characterized by IR, multinuclear ( (1)H, (13)C{ (1)H}, (31)P, and (119)Sn) NMR, and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The asymmetric unit of 1 is comprised of a tetramer with four crystallographically unique tin atoms. The structure reveals a central eight-membered (Sn-O-S-O) 2 cyclic ring with two exocyclic tin atoms, which results from micro 3-binding of the two methanesulfonate groups. The remaining two sulfonates are monodentate and contribute in O...HO(P) hydrogen bonding. The molecular structure is extended into a 3D coordination polymer with the aid of hydrogenphenylphosphonate group on each tin atom, acting in a micro 2-O 2P mode and forms a series of eight-membered (Sn-O-P-O) 2 rings in the structural framework. 2 and 3 are isostructural and represent linear 1D coordination polymers via micro 2-binding mode of both alkanesulfonate and hydrogenphenylphosphonate groups.

Combinatorial solution-phase synthesis of alkyl (1S*,2S*,3R*,5R*,6R*)-1-alkyl-3-aryl-6-benzoylamino-1-hydroxy-7- oxo-5-phenylhexahydropyrazolo[1,2-a]pyrazole-2-carboxylates

Combinatorial solution-phase cycloadditions of (1Z,4R*,5R*)-4-benzoylamino-5-phenylpyrazolidin-3-on-1-azomethine imines 3 to beta-keto esters 4 afforded a library of 26 bicyclic pyrazolidinones 5 in 6-89% yields and in 14-100% de. All products were isolated in >90% purity according to 1H NMR, and 25 of them were analytically pure. The structures of cycloadducts were confirmed by NMR and X-ray diffraction. Most of the products were isolated as mixtures of the major (1S*,2S*,3R*,5R*,6R*)-epimers 5 and the minor (1R*,2S*,3R*,5R*,6R*)-epimers 6. Epimerization of cycloadducts 5/6 at the anomeric position 1 in solution was confirmed by 1H NMR.     

Chiral clusters in a supersonic beam: R2PI-TOF spectroscopy of diastereomeric carboxylic esters/(R)-(+)-1-phenyl-1-propanol complexes

Wavelength and mass resolved resonance-enhanced two photon ionization (R2PI) excitation spectra of (R)-(+)-1-phenyl-1-propanol (P(R)) and its complexes with some chiral esters, i.e. methyl lactates (L(R) and L(S)), methyl 3-hydroxybutyrates (H(R) and H(S)), and methyl 2-chloropropionates (C(R) and C(S)), have been recorded after a supersonic molecular beam expansion and interpreted in the light of DFT calculations. The spectral features of the selected complexes were found to depend on the nature of hydrogen-bond interactions within the diasteromeric complexes, whose intensity in turn depends upon the structure and the configuration of the estereal moiety. The study further confirms resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy, coupled with time-of-flight mass resolution (R2PI-TOF), as an excellent tool for gathering valuable information on the interactive forces in molecular clusters and for the enantiodiscrimination of chiral molecules in the gas phase.     

E.S.R. investigation of helix inversion in induced cholesteric phases

The phenomenon of a reversible helix inversion in induced cholesteric mesophases caused by variation of the temperature has been investigated by E.S.R. spectroscopy using the nitroxide radical tempone as spin probe. Chiral esters of optically active (R)-(+)-2,2'-dihydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyl were added as dopants to the nematic mixture RO-TN 404. The inversion temperatures and the handedness of the helices were determined. In addition to the distortion parameter which is a measure of the helix pitch, order parameters and rotational correlation times of the spin probe were obtained from line-shape analyses.     

Synthesis of (R)-5-(2′-pentyl)barbituric acid derivatives of high optical purity

Natural (R)-(+)-pulegone ( 1 ) was converted to 3-methylhexanoic acid ( 4 ) by a sequence which precluded racemization. Conversion of this to malonic esters 8 , 5 , and 11 permitted the synthesis of pentobarbital ( 6 ) secobarbital ( 12 ), thiopental ( 9 ), thiamylal(10 ), and 5-(2′-pentyl)barbituric acid ( 7 ), all having the ( R )-configuration in the side chain.     

Selectivity tuning of serially coupled (S,S) Whelk-O 1 and (R,R) Whelk-O 1 columns in HPLC

The selectivity tuning of two columns coupled in series is investigated in chiral high-performance liquid chromatography. Two columns with reversal enantioselectivities [(R,R) Whelk-O 1 and (S,S) Whelk-O 1] are coupled in series via a T connector. Selectivity of such a column series is tuned by varying the mobile phase flows in the individual columns. The flow ratio necessary for the required selectivity is calculated on the basis of retention factors measured on the individual columns. The performance of this method for adjusting the required selectivity is studied by the separation of enantiomers of alkoxy substituted esters of phenylcarbamic acid. It is demonstrated that the change of the mobile phase flows in the individual columns enables change in the elution order of enantiomers.     

Studies on penem and carbapenem. I. Syntheses and oral absorption of ester-type prodrugs of sodium (5R,6S)-2-(2-fluoroethylthio)-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]penem-3-c arboxylat e

Acyloxyalkyl esters (2a-d), alkyloxycarbonyloxyalkyl esters (2e-g) and (5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxol-4-yl)methyl ester (2h) of (5R,6S)-2-(2-fluoroethylthio)-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]penem-3- carboxylic acid (1) were synthesized. Enhanced oral absorption was observed in mice reflecting increased lipophilicity, compared with the parent 1 itself. Among them, the ester 2h showed a prolonged plasma level and a large area under the blood concentration-time curve (AUC) in rats. These ester-type prodrugs of penem 1 in phosphate buffer (pH 6.86) were much more stable than those of cephalosporins which easily degraded via isomerization to delta 2 cephalosporins.     

Highly diastereoselective enolate addition of O-protected alpha-hydroxyacetate to (S(R))-tert-butanesulfinylimines: synthesis of taxol side chain

The taxol side chain (S(R),2R,3S)-N-tert-butanesulfinyl-O-Boc-3-phenylisoserine benzyl ester 4c was synthesized through a lithium enolate addition of O-Boc-alpha-hydroxyacetate benzyl ester 5c to benzylidene (S(R))-tert-butanesulfinamide 6a in excellent yield and diastereoselectivity. By similar approach, a series of enantiopure 3-substituted isoserine benzyl esters 4 useful for the semi-syntheses of taxol derivatives were also prepared in high to excellent yields and diastereoselectivities. The diastereoselective addition mechanism was discussed on the basis of the experimental observation.     

Enzymatic kinetic resolution and chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of delta-hydroxy esters. An efficient route to chiral delta-lactones

A successful kinetic resolution of a racemic mixture of delta-hydroxy esters 1 was obtained via lipase-catalyzed transesterification (E value up to 360). The combination of the enzymatic kinetic resolution with a ruthenium-catalyzed alcohol racemization led to an efficient dynamic kinetic resolution (ee up to 99% and conversion up to 92%). The synthetic utility of this procedure was illustrated by the practical syntheses of delta-lactones (R)-6-methyl- and (R)-6-ethyl-tetrahydropyran-2-one and (S)-5-(tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)heptanal. The former are important building blocks in the synthesis of natural products and biologically active compounds, and the latter is a key intermediate in the synthesis of widely used commercial insecticide Spinosyn A.     

Pfeiffer effect optical activity developed in lanthanide tris(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate) complexes by chiral tartrate substrates

Optical activity has been induced in the title complexes through outer-sphere complexation with L-tartaric acid, and with several carboxyl and hydroxyl esters. The optical activity was studied in the Tb(III) and Eu(III) complexes by means of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectroscopy, and the symmetry changes associated with the adduct formation were followed by examining the hypersensitive absorption of the Ho(III) complexes. Optical activity was found to be induced by each substrate, although the nature of the outer-sphere interaction was necessarily different in the various systems. It was found in every case that the presence of a (R,R)-tartrate substrate led to enrichment of the A-isomer of the lanthanide complexes.     

Kinetic Resolution of (R,S)-2-Butanol Using Enzymatic Synthesis of Esters

Kinetic resolution of (R,S)-2-butanol using enzymatic synthesis of esters has been studied. (R,S)-2-Butanol is commonly found as a racemic mixture, and the products of its esterification are racemic mixtures too. This work is of great significance in the field of the enzymatic kinetic resolution due to the little information found in literature about the resolution of (R,S)-2-butanol as pure compound. So, this article is a contribution about the enzymatic resolution of (R,S)-2-butanol. The reaction here studied is the esterification/transesterification of (R,S)-2-butanol in organic media (n-hexane) using as biocatalyst the lipase Novozym 435?. The main target of this study is to analyze the influence of certain variables in this reaction. Some of these variables are acyl donor (acids and esters), concentration of substrates, enzyme/substrate ratio, and temperature. The main conclusions of this study are the positive effect of higher substrates concentration (1.5 M) and larger amount of enzyme (13.8 g mol(-1) substrate) on kinetic resolution rate but not a very noticeable effect on enantiomeric excesses. The longer the carboxylic acid chain is, the better results are obtained. Besides to achieve a satisfactory kinetic resolution, it is recommendable to select reaction times (180 min) at which the highest substrate enantiomeric excess is reached (~60%). The temperature has not an appreciable influence on the resolution in the range studied (40-60 °C). When an ester (vinyl acetate) is used as acyl donor, the resolution shows better results than when using a carboxylic acid as acyl donor (ee(s)?~90% at 90 min). Moreover, Michaelis-Menten parameters, v(max) and K(M), were determined, 0.04 mol l(-1) min(-1) and 0.41 mol l(-1), respectively.     

Design and synthesis of a 3,4-dehydroproline amide discovery library

The synthesis of a discovery library of 80 3,4-dehydroproline amides was achieved in a four-step reaction sequence from easily accessible 3-aminoallene-3-carboxylate methyl esters. Diversification of these proline mimics was introduced at five different sites: the substituents at the 3-pyrroline unit (R1, R2, R3), at the nitrogen (R4), and the C-terminus (R5). The 3-pyrroline scaffold was synthesized in excellent yields by a silver-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of aminoallenes, followed by N-functionalization reactions. Maximum diversity was introduced in the final step of the reaction sequence by taking advantage of the carboxylic acid handle of the 3-pyrroline subunit. Amide coupling reactions using polystyrene-carbodiimide (PS-carbodiimide) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) under microwave irradiation led to 3,4-dehydroproline amides that were obtained in purities greater than 85% by LC/MS/ESLD after scavenging the excess HOBt on a silica-bound carbonate SPE cartridge.     

Determination of the Absolute Configuration of Amines and alpha-Amino Acids by (1)H NMR of (R)-O-Aryllactic Acid Amides

(R)-O-Aryllactic acid (ROAL) amides derived from alpha-chiral primary amines and alpha-amino acid esters show different chemical shifts in (1)H NMR spectroscopy (300 MHz) depending on their configuration. Molecular mechanics, semiempirical calculations, and (1)H NMR studies suggest that, in solution, these amides prefer an ap-Z conformation with the C(alpha)OAr and C=O groups close to anti-periplanar as in the case of mandelic acid amides. The proposed conformational preference is different from that of the ROAL esters (C(alpha)H and C=O groups in a syn-periplanar conformation). The conformational model for ROAL amides allows the absolute configuration assignment of primary amines and alpha-amino acid esters according to the relative position of the aryl group and the substituents on the amine moiety, and also their enantiomeric composition.     

Highly selective addition of chiral,sulfonimidoyl substituted bis(allyl)titanium complexes to N-sulfonyl alpha-imino esters: asymmetric synthesis of gamma,delta-unsaturated alpha-amino acids bearing a chiral,electron-withdrawing nucleofuge at the delta-position

Selective addition of the chiral, sulfonimidoyl substituted bis(allyl)titanium complexes 5a-d, which are configurationally labile in regard to the Calpha-atoms, to N-toluenesulfonyl (Ts)-, N-2-trimethylsilylethanesulfonyl (SES)-, and N-tert-butylsulfonyl (Bus) alpha-imino ester (9a-c) in the presence of Ti(OiPr)(4) and ClTi(OiPr)(3) afforded with high regio- and diastereoselectivities in good yields the (syn, E)-configured beta-alkyl-gamma,delta-unsaturated alpha-amino acid derivatives 2a-g, which carry a chiral, electron-withdrawing nucleofuge at the delta-position and a cyclohexyl, an isopropyl, a phenyl, and a methyl group at the beta-position. Addition of the cyclic bis(allyl)titanium complex 14 to N-Bus alpha-imino ester 9c afforded with similar high regio- and diastereoselectivities the (E)- and (Z)-configured amino acid derivatives (E)-8 and (Z)-8. Reaction of complexes 5a-d with alpha-imino esters 9a-c in the presence of Ti(OiPr)(4) occurs stepwise to give first the mono(allyl)titanium complexes containing 2a-g as ligands, which react in the presence of ClTi(OiPr)(3) with a second molecule of 9a-c with formation of two molecules of 2a-g. Formation of (S,R,E)-configured homoallylic amines 2a-g entails Si,Re,E processes of alpha-imino esters 9a-c with the (R,R)-configured bis(allyl)titanium complexes (R,R)-5a-d and (R)-configured mono(allyl)titanium complexes (R)-17a-d, both of which are most likely in rapid equilibrium with their (S,S)-diastereomers and (S)-diastereomers, respectively. Interestingly, in the reaction of 5a-d with aldehydes, the (S,S)-configured complexes (S,S)-5a-d are the ones which react faster. Reaction of the N-titanated amino acid derivatives Ti-2a and Ti-2b with N-Ts alpha-imino ester 9a led to the highly diastereoselective formation of imidazolidinones 15a and 15b, respectively. Cleavage of the sulfonamide group of the N-Bus amino acid derivative 2d with CF(3)SO(3)H gave quantitatively the sulfonimidoyl functionalized amino acid H-2d. A Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of the amino acid derivative 2e with ZnPh(2) led to a substitution of the sulfonimidoyl group by a phenyl group and furnished the enantiomerically pure protected alpha-amino acid Bus-1. Two new N-sulfonyl alpha-imino esters, the SES and the Bus alpha-imino esters 9b and 9c, respectively, have been synthesized from the corresponding sulfonamides by the Kresze method in medium to good yields. The N-SES alpha-imino ester 9b and the N-Bus alpha-imino ester 9c should find many synthetic applications, in particular, in cases where the N-Ts alpha-imino ester 9a had been used before.
