- Conjugate Addition Reactions Mediated by Samarium(II) Iodide
-
Samarium(II) iodide in conjunction with a catalytic low-valent transition metal species has been employed to promote the conjugate addition reaction of primary and secondary alkyl halides onto α,β-unsaturated esters and amides. The method has been determined to be quite general and hence has been extended to the cyclization reactions of alkyl halides onto α,β-unsaturated lactones, lactams, and nitriles. The cyclization reactions described herein provide a very general approach to the synthesis of functionalized carbocycles from simple acyclic precursors with excellent diastereoselectivity and under very mild reaction conditions.

- Discovery and Preclinical Pharmacology of INE963, a Potent and Fast-Acting Blood-Stage Antimalarial with a High Barrier to Resistance and Potential for Single-Dose Cures in Uncomplicated Malaria
-
A series of 5-aryl-2-amino-imidazothiadiazole (ITD) derivatives were identified by a phenotype-based high-throughput screening using a blood stage Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) growth inhibition assay. A lead optimization program focused on improving antiplasmodium potency, selectivity against human kinases, and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity properties and extended pharmacological profiles culminated in the identification of INE963 (1), which demonstrates potent cellular activity against Pf 3D7 (EC50 = 0.006 μM) and achieves “artemisinin-like” kill kinetics in vitro with a parasite clearance time of 1/2) across species. These properties suggest the significant potential for INE963 (1) to provide a curative therapy for uncomplicated malaria with short dosing regimens. For these reasons, INE963 (1) was progressed through GLP toxicology studies and is now undergoing Ph1 clinical trials.

- Iron-Catalyzed Intermolecular Functionalization of Non-Activated Aliphatic C?H Bonds via Carbene Transfer
-
The modification of strong Csp3?H bonds via iron carbene intermediates under mild reaction conditions has been an important challenge with attractive prospective in organic synthesis. In this work, we show the efficient combination of an electrophilic iron catalyst with a lithium Lewis acid for the functionalization of strong Csp3?H bonds of cyclic and linear alkanes by the activation of commercially available ethyl diazoacetate (EDA). The reaction proceeds with good yields, under mild reaction conditions (40 °C) and large excess of substrate is not needed. In addition, excellent activity is observed in the cyclopropanation of challenging aliphatic olefins. (Figure presented.).

- Measuring the Relative Reactivity of the Carbon–Hydrogen Bonds of Alkanes as Nucleophiles
-
We report quantitative measurements of the relative reactivities of a series of C?H bonds of gaseous or liquid CnH2n+2 alkanes (n=1–8, 29 different C?H bonds) towards in situ generated electrophiles (copper, silver, and rhodium carbenes), with methane as the reference. This strategy surpasses the drawback of previous model reactions of alkanes with strong electrophiles suffering from C?C cleavage processes, which precluded direct comparison of the relative reactivities of alkane C?H bonds.

- Zinc(II)-Mediated Carbene Insertion into C-H Bonds in Alkanes
-
The cationic zinc adduct {[HB(3,5-(CF3)2Pz)3]Zn(NCMe)2}ClO4 catalyzes the functionalization of tertiary, secondary, and primary C-H bonds of alkanes via carbene insertion. Ethyl diazoacetate serves as the:CHCO2Et carbene precursor. The counteranion, supporting ligand, and coordinating solvents affect the catalytic activity. An in situ generated {[HB(3,5-(CF3)2Pz)3]Zn}+ species containing a bulkier {B[3,5-(CF3)2C6H3]4}- anion gives the best results among the zinc catalysts used.

- Catalytic, enantioselective, and highly chemoselective bromocyclization of olefinic dicarbonyl compounds
-
Overriding preferences: An amine-thiocarbamate catalyst can mediate the facile, efficient, and highly enantioselective bromocyclization of olefinic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. In the presence of the bifunctional catalyst, the bromination occurs chemoselectively at the olefinic moiety rather than at the carbon atom in the α-position to the carbonyl units. Copyright
