Stereocontrolled synthesis of (+)- and (−)-iridomyrmecin from citronellene enantiomers

Natural (+)-iridomyrmecin and its unnatural enantiomer (−)-iridomyrmecin were synthesized by intramolecular [3+2] dipolar cycloaddition of silyl nitronates that had been generated from the nitro derivatives of (+)- and (−)-citronellenes, respectively.

Synthesis and photochemistry of beta,beta'-di(2-furyl)-substituted o-divinylbenzenes: intra- and/or intermolecular cycloaddition as an effect of annelation

New heteroaryl-substituted o-divinylbenzenes, 2,2'-(1,2-phenylenedivinylene)difuran (9), 2,2'-(1,2-phenylenedivinylene)bisbenzo[b]furan (10), and 2,2'-(1,2-phenylenedivinylene)bisnaphtho[2,1-b]furan (11), were prepared and irradiated at various concentrations; intramolecular photocycloaddition and intermolecular [2+2] twofold photoaddition reactions took place to give bicyclo[3.2.1]octadiene derivatives 12-14 and cyclophane derivatives 15-17, respectively. Compound 11 was the most selective of these o-divinylbenzenes, which, owing to pi-pi intra- or intermolecular complexation, gave only the exo-bicyclo[3.2.1]octadiene derivative 14 at low concentrations, and only the cyclophane derivative 17 at high concentrations.     

Synthesis of dihydropyrazolo[3′,4′:3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles and spiro-[3H-indole-3,3′-[Δ-1,2,4]-triazolin]-2-ones via intra and intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions

A new class of dihydropyrazolo[3′,4′:3,4]pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles and spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[Δ²-1,2,4]-triazoline]-2-ones were synthesised via intra and intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions in good yields.     

1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of azides with electron-deficient alkynes under mild condition in water

We report a simple synthetic protocol for the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides with electron-deficient alkynes. Alkyne with at least one neighboring electron-withdrawing group proceeds with the cycloaddition successfully without any catalysts at room temperature in water. Under this simple condition, we evaluated a series of small molecule model reactions and then coupled an azido-DNA molecule with electron-deficient alkynes for the formation of [1,2,3]-triazole heterocycle, providing a potential method for introducing functional groups to DNA under biological conditions.     

Synthesis of new CF3-containing 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans

The reactions of vinyl sulfides with -sulfonylvinyl trifluoromethyl ketones afforded CF₃-containing 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans. An attempt to synthesize 1,1,1-trifluoro-3-(methylthio)but-3-en-2-one resulted in its dimerization into a CF₃-containing 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran.     

Three-component cyclization of hydroxylamino-substituted quinoline with reactive methylene compounds and formaldehyde: new method for the synthesis of 7-(isoxazolidin-2-yl)-6-fluoroquinolones

A one-step procedure was developed for the synthesis of new 6-fluoro-7-(isoxazolidin-2-yl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinolines. The procedure is based on the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the azomethine oxide and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes, which are generated in situ from 6-fluoro-7-hydroxylamino-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid and CH-active compounds (dialkyl malonates, ethyl acetoacetate), respectively, in the presence of formaldehyde at 100—120 °C.     

Substituent control in the diastereoselectivity of dipolar cycloadditions of nitrones and their Zn(II) complexes with N-arylmaleimides

The π-π stacking interactions between maleimide's and nitrone's aromatic rings during the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition were assumed to control the exo-endo selectivity of the reaction. The exo-endo ratios change during the reactions until they reach a constant value, which depends on the substituent. Electron-withdrawing groups favour the exo adduct while electron-donating groups favour the endo adduct. The nitrone ZnBr₂ complexes react much more slowly than the free nitrone and the cycloaddition is exo selective in all cases independent of the substituents on the maleimide's aromatic ring. Thermal retrocycloaddition of the cycloadducts produce the corresponding nitrones. The ring opening in the presence of secondary amines did not induce imine formation. endo Adducts were shown for the first time to be the stable paramagnetic compounds.
