General and practical catalytic enantioselective Strecker reaction of ketoimines: significant improvement through catalyst tuning by protic additives

Significant improvement in enantioselectivity and catalyst activity was achieved for the catalytic enantioselective Strecker reaction. Using a catalyst (1-2.5 mol %) prepared from Gd(OⁱPr)₃ and d-glucose derived ligand 1, and in the presence of 2,6-dimethylphenol as an additive, high enantioselectivity was obtained from a wide range of ketoimines, including heteroaromatic and cyclic ketoimines. The new method was applied to an efficient catalytic asymmetric synthesis of sorbinil, a therapeutic agent for diabetic complications.     

Synthese von 4H-Pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidinen

Summary Good yields of substituted 5-(5R-2-furyl)-4H-pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines4 were obtained in the reaction of 2-ethoxymethyleneamino-3-cyano-4H-pyranes2 with ammonia. Compounds2 were prepared by the condensation of the starting 2-amino-5-acetyl-3-cyano-6-methyl-4H-pyranes1 with ethyl orthoformate. Spectral properties of the bicyclic system4 in relation to compounds3 are discussed.

     

Synthesis of new pyrazolo[4,3-e]-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines and related heterocycles

The reaction between 5-amino-4-imino-1(2)-substituted-1(2)H-4,5-dihydropyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines and several commercially available reactants afforded new heterocycles with a conserved pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine nucleus. The key intermediates employed proved to be suitable compounds by virtue of their two vicinal amino and imino groups that were used to obtain five, six and seven-membered rings.     

Iron(III) chloride catalysed three-component Grieco condensation: Synthesis of tetrahydropyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines/quinazolines

Three-component Grieco condensation reaction of 3-aminopyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine, formaldehyde/benzaldehyde and electron rich alkenes in presence of iron(III) chloride gave tetrahydropyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines/quinazolines in single pot. The sequence of reactions is formation of di-azadiene in situ and the subsequent regioselective addition of alkenes in aza-Diels Alder type reaction. The structure and stereochemistry of the products were confirmed by spectral data and single crystal X-ray crystallography.

Synthesis of naturally occurring bioactive butyrolactones: maculalactones A-C and nostoclide I

Starting from citraconic anhydride (13), a simple multistep (9-10 steps) synthesis of naturally occurring butyrolactones maculalactone A (3), maculalactone B (1), maculalactone C (2) and nostoclide I (4) have been described with good overall yields via dibenzylmaleic anhydride (20) and benzylisopropylmaleic anhydride (27). The two anhydrides 20 and 27 were prepared by S_N2′ coupling reactions of appropriate Grignard reagents with dimethyl bromomethylfumarate (14), LiOH-induced hydrolysis of esters to acids, bromination of carbon-carbon double bond, in situ dehydration followed by dehydrobromination and chemoselective allylic substitution of bromoatom in disubstituted anhydrides 19 and 26 with appropriate Grignard reagents. The NaBH₄ reduction of these anhydrides 20 and 27 furnished the desired lactones 21 and 29, respectively. The lactone 21 on Knoevenagel condensation with benzaldehyde, furnished maculalactone B (1), which on isomerization gave maculalactone C (2). Selective catalytic hydrogenation of 1 gave maculalactone A (3). The conversion of lactone 29 to nostoclide I (4) is known.
