CuBr-mediated intramolecular oxidative cyclopropanation of α-oxo ketene ,-acetals was efficiently achieved to afford 2-thioalkyl-3-azabicyclo-[3.1.0]hexenes under mild conditions. 2-Oxyalkyl- and 2-aminoallyl-3-azabicyclo-[3.1.0]hexenes were also obtained from the corresponding α-oxo ketene ,- and ,-acetals. Further C-S bond transformations led to diverse 2-aryl-substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexene derivatives in good to high yields.

The synthesis of degradable polymer prodrug nanoparticles is still a challenge to be met, which would make it possible to remedy both the shortcomings of traditional formulation of preformed polymers (, low nanoparticle concentrations) and those of the physical encapsulation of drugs (, burst release and poor drug loadings). Herein, through the combination of radical ring-opening polymerization (rROP) and polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) under appropriate experimental conditions, we report the successful preparation of high-solid content, degradable polymer prodrug nanoparticles, exhibiting multiple drug moieties covalently linked to a degradable vinyl copolymer backbone. Such a rROPISA process relied on the chain extension of a biocompatible poly(ethylene glycol)-based solvophilic block with a mixture of lauryl methacrylate (LMA), cyclic ketene acetal (CKA) and drug-bearing methacrylic esters by reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) copolymerization at 20 wt% solid content.

The enantioselective synthesis of 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds continues to pose a significant challenge in organic synthesis, and a catalytic process which generates two adjacent stereogenic centers with full stereochemical control is lacking until now. The 1,4-relationship of the functional groups requires an Umpolung strategy as one of the α-carbonyl positions has to be inverted into an electrophilic center to react with a normal enolate. We report herein the highly enantio- and diastereoselective addition of silyl ketene acetals toward electrophilic 1-azaallyl cations to furnish chiral 4-hydrazonoesters, which are masked 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds.

Switching CO-to-Acetate Electroreduction on Cu Atomic Ensembles.

J Am Chem Soc

The electrocatalytic reaction pathway is highly dependent on the intrinsic structure of the catalyst. CO/CO electroreduction has recently emerged as a potential approach for obtaining C products, but it is challenging to achieve high selectivity for a single C product. Herein, we develop a Cu atomic ensemble that satisfies the appropriate site distance and coordination environment required for electrocatalytic CO-to-acetate conversion, which shows outstanding overall performance with an acetate Faradaic efficiency of 70.

Stereoselective Total Synthesis of Rhodocoranes I and J.

Org Lett

October 2024

Department of Biochemistry, The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, Texas 75390-9038, United States.

We report the stereoselective total synthesis of rhodocoranes I and J in 10 steps and 16.4% overall yield from ()-limonene. The synthesis was accomplished through the convergent assembly of a highly substituted chiral cyclopentanone and a lithiated furanyl silyl ketene acetal.
