Article Synopsis
  • - A study investigated how gold catalysts affect the synthesis of pyrazolines and dihydropyridines from imines and methyl phenylpropiolate, focusing on three different imines with unique substituents.
  • - The research found that the type of nitrogen substituent influences the reaction path: NHCOMe leads to outward ring opening and pyrazoline products, while aromatic substituents prompt inward ring opening and dihydropyridine products.
  • - The configuration of dihydropyridine is determined by the substituent on the aromatic ring, with electron-donating groups causing direct formation of 1,4-dihydropyridine and electron-withdrawing groups leading to 1,2-dihyd

Herein, we present a general approach for synthesizing pluramycin hybrids, which are analogous to the pluramycinone carbocyclic skeleton. This method involves a sequence of relay ring-closing enyne metathesis, Diels-Alder and oxidative aromatization reactions to synthesize pluramycinone-sugar hybrids. As part of our ongoing research, we have successfully synthesized two pluramycin hybrid analogues by carefully monitoring the late-stage oxidative aromatization steps, which depend on the stereo-orientation of the Diels-Alder cycloadduct at the C-4 center.

Photochemical Divergent Ring-Closing Metathesis of 1,7-Enynes: Efficient Synthesis of Spirocyclic Quinolin-2-ones.

A photocatalytic method for the ring-closing 1,7-enyne metathesis using the α-amino radical as an alkene deconstruction auxiliary is present. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer is the key to the generation and β-scission of the α-amino radical, while the dearomatization of arenes and ring opening of cyclopropanes are the key to construct spirocyclic quinolin-2-ones. This approach highlights the potential of ring-closing 1,7-enyne metathesis, providing a green, efficient, and step-economical way for the synthesis of spirocyclic quinolin-2-ones.

Herein, we report the first asymmetric total synthesis of 4-hydroxy-8--methyltetrangomycin (), 4-hydroxytetrangomycin (), and 4-keto-8--methyltetrangomycin (), angucyclinones featuring a highly oxidized nonaromatic A ring. A sequential enyne metathesis/Diels-Alder approach was utilized successfully to construct the tetracyclic skeleton of the angucyclinones. Late-stage acetonide deprotection challenges were overcome by A ring functional group manipulation, yielding a dihydroxy intermediate prior to the benzylic photo-oxidation, facilitating the total syntheses of angucyclinones -.

Chiral Acetal-Based Stereo-Controlled Degradable Polymer Synthesis.

Chemistry

September 2024

Department of Chemistry, Chungbuk National University, 1 Chungdae-ro, Seowon-gu, Cheongju, 28644, Republic of Korea.

The precise synthesis of chiral polymers remains a significant challenge in polymer chemistry, particularly for applications in advanced biomedical and electronic materials. The development of degradable polymers is important for eco-friendly and advanced materials. Here, we introduce a stereo-controlled degradable polymer via cascade enyne metathesis polymerization and enantioselective acetal synthesis through Pd-catalyzed asymmetric hydroamination.
