The novel structure of Hg(II) complexes including the pyridinium ylide CHNCHC(O)CH-m-Br (Y) were synthesized and reported in this study. In the first step, the pyridinium salt CHNCHC(O)CH-m-Br (S) was produced by reacting 2,3'-dibromoactophenone and pyridine. then, treatment of S with KCO gave the related pyridinium ylide Y. Finally, the reaction of Y with HgX and Hg(NO)·HO leads to the formation of novel binuclear [HgY][HgX] (X=Cl (1); X=Br (2); X=I (3)) and polymeric [HgY(NO)] (4) complexes. The structure of complex 2 was also determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The obtained analyses proved the coordination through the ylidic carbon to metallic center. Additionally, Natural Bond Orbital (NBO), Energy Decomposition Analysis (EDA), and EDA-NOCV studies are also used to investigate the nature of metal-ligand bonding in the complexes. Finally, the antibacterial activity of 1-4 was also examined against Gram positive and negative represented significant levels of inhibitory potency respected to used standards.

DNA-compatible one-pot synthesis of multi-substituted dihydrofuran pyridinium ylide-mediated cyclization.

Org Biomol Chem

Synthesis of chemically diverse heterocyclic scaffolds in DNA-encoded libraries is highly demanded. We herein reported a convenient one-pot multi-component on-DNA synthetic strategy to afford multi-substituted 2,3-dihydrofuran scaffolds pyridinium ylide-mediated cyclization. This reaction exhibited modest to excellent conversions for a broad range of DNA-conjugated aldehydes, β-ketonitriles and pyridinium salts under mild reaction conditions.

An effective method for the construction of functionalized indolizines has been developed in which β,β-difluoro peroxides act as novel C2-building blocks to implement [3+2] annulation with pyridinium ylides under base-mediated conditions. With this protocol, a broad range of multisubstituted indolizines were prepared in moderate to good yields under mild conditions, and many useful functional groups were tolerated.

We report a cascade approach for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydropyrroles derivatives via a formal [4 + 1] annulation reaction of α,β-unsaturated imines with generated pyridinium ylides. Importantly, this protocol is compatible with diverse substituted imines as well as pyridinium ylides, constructing 2,3-dihydropyrroles with excellent yield and selectivity. Thereafter, the Merrifield resin-supported pyridinium ylide as a potential C1 synthon was also employed in our strategy and reused several times, resulting in products with excellent yield and diastereoselectivity.

A pyridinium ylide-alkylation strategy has been developed for selectively accessing ,-disubstituted pyridinium salts from monosubstituted pyridinium salts possessing ambident nucleophiles. The method was shown to be tolerant toward an array of different pyridinium scaffolds and common electrophiles, enabling access to structurally diverse pyridinium salts. The potential versatility of the approach was demonstrated through the synthesis of chemically complex, heterotrifunctional pyridinium salts containing a pyridinium warhead, a click chemistry handle, and a third, high-value, payload.

Molecular rearrangement via carbene transfer is a powerful tool to access molecular diversity. Herein, we describe an efficient approach to selective pyridyl/aryl relocation via a rhodium-catalyzed aminoarylation of diazo compounds, providing a promising strategy to access -pyridyl N-alkylated pyridone scaffolds in a single operation. This reaction features the novel reactivity of oxy-pyridinium ylide, rhodium-associated five-membered transition state, and 1,4-pyridyl/aryl relocation.
