Synthesis of C3-dihydrofuran substituted coumarins via multicomponent approach

An efficient method was developed for the synthesis of dihydrofuran substituted coumarin from a one-pot, four-component reaction of 2-hydroxy aromatic aldehydes, 6-methyl, 4-hydroxy pyranone, aromatic aldehyde, and pyridinium ylide in the presence of tri-ethylamine under microwave irradiation. The reaction proceeds under solvent-free conditions to afford C3-dihydrofuran substituted coumarin in a diastereoselective manner in good yields (71–89%).     

Synthesis of chimeric oligonucleotides containing phosphodiester, phosphorothioate, and phosphoramidate linkages

[reaction: see text] H-Phosphonate monomers of 2'-O-(2-methoxyethyl) ribonucleosides have been synthesized. Oxidation of oligonucleotide H-phosphonates has been optimized to allow the synthesis of oligonucleotides containing either 2'-deoxy or 2'-O-(2-methoxyethyl) ribonucleoside residues combined with three different phosphate modifications in the backbone, i.e., phosphodiester (PO), phosphorothioate (PS), and phosphoramidate (PN). Phosphodiester linkages were introduced by oxidation with a cocktail of 0.1 M Et(3)N in CCl(4)/Pyr/H(2)O (5:9:1) without affecting phosphorothioate or phosphoramidate linkages. For the synthesis of phosphoramidate-modified oligonucleotides, N(4)-acetyl deoxycytidine-3'-H-phosphonate monomers were used to avoid transamination during the oxidation step.     

One‐Pot Synthesis of Hydrophobically Modified Iminosugar C‐Alkynylglycosides: Facile Synthesis of Polyhydroxy Tetrahydroindolizines

A mild and efficient one‐pot method has been developed for the stereoselective synthesis of structurally diverse novel iminosugar C‐alkynylglycosides. The generality of this methodology has been demonstrated with a wide variety of amines and copper acetylides. This one‐pot method has been exploited in the synthesis of new class of DNA cross‐linking agents, polyhydroxy 1‐vinyl‐tetrahydroindolizine derivatives.     

Total Synthesis of (+)‐Cryptocaryalactone and of a Diastereoisomer of (+)‐Strictifolione via Ring‐Closing Metathesis (RCM) and Olefin Cross‐Metathesis (CM)

Ring‐closing metathesis (RCM) and olefin cross‐metathesis (CM) reactions were used as the key steps for the synthesis of (+)‐cryptocaryalactone ( 1 ) and the first synthesis of the diastereoisomer 3 of (+)‐strictifolione, starting from the commercially available L ‐malic acid (=(2S)‐2‐hydroxybutanedioic acid).     

Non-nucleoside building blocks for copper-assisted and copper-free click chemistry for the efficient synthesis of RNA conjugates

Novel non-nucleoside alkyne monomers compatible with oligonucleotide synthesis were designed, synthesized, and efficiently incorporated into RNA and RNA analogues during solid-phase synthesis. These modifications allowed site-specific conjugation of ligands to the RNA oligonucleotides through copper-assisted (CuAAC) and copper-free strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions. The SPAAC click reactions of cyclooctyne-oligonucleotides with various classes of azido-functionalized ligands in solution phase and on solid phase were efficient and quantitative and occurred under mild reaction conditions. The SPAAC reaction provides a method for the synthesis of oligonucleotide-ligand conjugates uncontaminated with copper ions.     

Synthesis of oxalate doped polyaniline and its corrosion protection performance

It is known that dopants present in polyaniline (PANI) play an important role in corrosion protection of mild steel since the dopant ions form a secondary layer with iron. Since oxalate ions form a stable iron oxalate layer on mild steel, a study has been made on the corrosion protection performance of steel by vinyl coating containing oxalate doped PANI in acid and neutral media. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies have shown that the oxalate doped PANI is able to protect mild steel in sodium chloride solution since the impedance values are maintained at 10¹⁰ Ω cm² even after 100 days of exposure.

An expedient diastereoselective synthesis of pyrrolidinyl spirooxindoles fused to sugar lactone via [3+2] cycloaddition of azomethine ylides

Synthesis of pyrrolidinyl-spirooxindoles fused to sugar lactone has been achieved by a one pot three component 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (1,3-DC) reaction. A unique dipolarophile (α,β-unsaturated lactone) derived from d-glucose/d-galactose reacted with azomethine ylide generated in situ from isatin/N-substituted isatin and secondary amino acids (sarcosine/proline/piperidine-2-carboxylic acid) to give the corresponding cycloadducts in good yield. The cycloaddition was found to be highly regio- and diastereoselective.     

Palladium-catalyzed regioselective synthesis of benzosultams from functionalized ynamides and benzotriazoles/tetrazoles

Palladium-catalyzed highly regioselective synthesis of benzotriazole appended benzosultams by the tandem-cyclization of functionalized ynamides with benzotriazoles has been accomplished. This transformation involves the formation of both CN and CC bonds in a single step. Donor solvents appear to enhance the yields of the products. The methodology is also applicable for the generation of triazole/tetrazole appended benzosultams.
