Scalable Cu(Ⅱ)-mediated intramolecular dehydrogenative phenol-phenol coupling:Concise synthesis of enantiopure axially chiral homo-and hetero-diphenols

An intramolecular dehydrogenative homo-and hetero-coupling of phenols has been successfully developed for quick preparation of enantiopure axial diphenols under mild Cu(Ⅱ)-mediated conditions,using((4 S,5 S)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-diyl)dimethanol as the chiral auxiliary.The commercially available(R)-α-met hylbenzy la mine was identified as the best amine ligand for Cu(Ⅱ) in the reactions.A variety of homo/hetero bis-dihydroxylbenzoate substrates were examined,affording the corresponding axially chiral diphenols with satis factory to excellent diastereomeric ratios,and a representative scalable preparation was also attempted.A formal synthesis of natural product(+)-deoxyschizandrin has been achieved in this work using one axially chiral diphenol as the synthetic intermediate.

Synthesis and properties of new chiral dopants containing a δ-lactone ring for practical ferroelectric liquid crystal mixtures

A series of new optically active δ-lactones were synthesized as chiral dopants for ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLCs). The response time of an FLC mixture containing 4 mol% (S)-2,2-dimethyl-5-[2-fluoro-4-(5-n-octylpyrimidin-2-yl)-phenoxy[methyl-δ-valerolactone was 25 μs at 25°C.

New Chiral Diamines of the Dioxolane Series: (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-Dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylaminomethyl)- 1,3-dioxolane and (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-Dimethyl-4,5-bis(methyl- aminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane

The reaction of sodium diphenylamide with 2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(tosyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolane gave (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylaminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane, which was brought into complex formation with cobalt chloride. Treatment of 2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(tosyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolane with sodium N-methylanilide resulted in cleavage of the SÄO bond in the p-toluenesulfonate moiety with formation of N-methyl-N-phenyl-p-toluenesulfonamide and 4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane disodium salt. Diethyl (4R,5R)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dicarboxylate reacted with methylamine to give the corresponding dicarboxamide which was reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to (4S,5S)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(methylaminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane having chiral carbon and nitrogen atoms.     

Di-6R,7R1-4(3H)-Oxo-2-quinazolinyl-substituted Cyclobutanes from Pinic and sym-Homopinic Acids

Treatment of them with formamide leads to the formation of the corresponding 2,2-dimethyl-3-[4(3H)-oxo-2-quinazolinyl]methyl-1-[4(3H)-oxo-2-quinazolinyl]cyclobutanes and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-di[4(3H)-oxo-2-quinazolinylmethyl]cyclobutanes.     

Reactions of dialkyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxohexane-1,6-dioates,-heptane-1,7-dioates with zinc and aromatic aldehydes

Zinc enolates generated from dimethyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxohexane-1,6-dioate and zinc reacted with aromatic aldehydes giving methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxo-3-(5-oxo-2-aryltetrahydrofuran-3-yl)propanoates. The reaction of zinc enolates obtained from dimethyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxoheptane-1,7-dioate and zinc with aromatic aldehydes depending on the synthesis conditions led to the formation either methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxo-3-(6-oxo-2-aryltetrahydropyran-3-yl)propanoates or 3-(5,5-dimethyl-4,6-dioxo-2-aryltetrahydropyran-3-yl)propanoates. The compounds synthesized formed as a single diastereomer of E-configuration.     

Asymmetric hydroformylation with Pt-phosphine-SnCl2 and Pt-bisphosphine-CuCl2 (or CuCl) catalytic systems

A study has been made of asymmetric hydroformylation of styrene with PtCl₂(PPh₃)₂ + bisphosphine + SnCl₂ (bisphosphine: BDPP = (−)-(2S,4S)-2,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)pentane or DIOP = (−)-(4R,5R)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane) and PtCl₂(bisphosphine) + PPh₃ + SnCl₂ catalysts prepared “in situ”. The presence of an excess of the phosphine ligand slightly lowered the reaction rate, but the enantioselectivity of these systems is significantly higher than those involving PtCl(SnCl₃)(bisphosphine) catalysts. Under mild reaction conditions 88.8% enantiomeric excess was achieved. Replacing SnCl₂ in these catalysts by CuCl₂ or CuCl gave a new homogeneous catalytic system which is active at higher reaction temperature (> 100°C), but has a rather moderate enantioselectivity.

The excited-state absorptive domains of these strongly coupled multipigment ensembles can be extensively modulated. For sequential one-photon absorptive processes, these compounds evince large sigmae, sigmae/sigmag, and sigmae - sigmag values. As the combination of all these properties within single chromophoric entities have heretofore lacked precedent within the NIR, these and closely related structures may find particular utility in a variety of technologically important optical-limiting applications.
