Androstane brassinosteroid analogues with alpha-azido acid ester groups in position 17beta were synthesized from 2alpha,3alpha,17beta-trihydroxy-5alpha-androstan-6-one after the protection of the 2alpha,3alpha-diols upon treatment with the corresponding alpha-azido acid and the subsequent deprotection of the diol grouping. Six new castasterone analogues were prepared. The biological activities were evaluated in two bioassays: a rice lamina inclination test and bean second internode bioassays. The activities of the new analogues differ in these two bioassays.

We report an FeCl-catalyzed annulation reaction between α-azido acetamides and cyclic ketones. Two types of -unsaturated γ-lactam products can be obtained, depending on the reaction conditions. When α-azido acetamides were reacted with cyclohexanone, 8-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-indol-2(4)-ones were obtained when a primary amine was present in the reaction system; conducting the reaction in the presence of 2-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, on the contrary, resulted in the formation of 5,6-dihydro-1-indol-2(4)-ones.

An iron-catalyzed alkylazidation of dehydroamino acids using peroxides as alkyl radical precursors is described. Non-natural azidated amino esters bearing an α-alkyl chain could be obtained in 18-94% yields using TMSN as an azide source. The obtained α-alkyl-α-azide α-amino esters could be further functionalized through cycloaddition or azide reduction with amide couplings to afford aminal-type peptides, α-triazolo amino acids, and tetrahydro-triazolopyridine, showing the great versatility of this now easily accessible class of amino acids.

A direct and asymmetric triisopropylsilyltrifluoromethanesulfonate (TIPSOTf) mediated aldol reaction of N-azidoacetyl-1,3-thiazolidine-2-thione with aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by a chiral nickel(II)-Tol-BINAP complex has been developed (BINAP=2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl). The catalytic protocol gives the corresponding anti α-azido-β-silyloxy adducts with outstanding stereocontrol and in high yields. Theoretical calculations account for the stereochemical outcome of the reaction and lay the foundations for a mechanistic model.

An iron-catalyzed radical alkylazidation of electron-deficient alkenes is reported. Alkyl diacyl peroxides work as the alkyl source, and trimethylsilyl azide acts as the azido reservoir. This method features mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope, and good functional group tolerance, providing a range of α-azido esters, an α-azido ketone, and an α-azido cyanide in high yields.

Direct enantioselective Mannich reactions of α-azido cyclic ketones with aldimines are realized through chiral phosphoric acid catalysis, which generate chiral azides possessing an α-quanternary stereocenter with complete regioselectivities and high diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities.
