- Repurposing an Aldolase for the Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Substituted Quinolines
-
Quinoline derivatives are important natural products and pharmaceuticals, but their synthesis can be challenging due to poor yields, harsh reaction conditions, and instability of starting materials. Here we report the chemoenzymatic synthesis of quinaldic acids under mild conditions using an aldolase, trans-o-hydroxybenzylidenepyruvate hydratase-aldolase (NahE, or HBPA). A series of 2-aminobenzaldehydes derived from reduction of the corresponding nitro analogue were reacted with pyruvate in the presence of NahE to give substituted quinolines in up to 93% isolated yield. This reaction differs from the aldol condensation catalyzed by NahE in vivo, instead resembling the heterocycle formation catalyzed by its homologue, dihydrodipicolinate synthase.

- Benzoazepine-Fused Isoindolines via Intramolecular (3 + 2)-Cycloadditions of Azomethine Ylides with Dinitroarenes
-
Aminobenzaldehydes bearing a pendant 3,5-dinitrophenyl group react thermally with N-substituted α-amino acids to form unprecedented benzoazepine-fused isoindolines. The reaction proceeds via a dearomatization/rearomatization sequence involving an intramolecular (3 + 2)-cycloaddition between the in situ formed azomethine ylide and the dinitroarene. Various glycine derivatives are tolerated as well as branched substrates based on cyclic, α-mono-, and α,α-disubstituted amino acids, giving single diastereomers in many cases. The method is scalable and gives products with a nitro group ready for further manipulation.

- Gold(I)-catalyzed unprecedented rearrangement reaction between 2-aminobenzaldehydes with propargyl amines: An expedient route to 3-aminoquinolines
-
Access to aminoquinolines: A gold(I)-catalyzed unprecedented rearrangement reaction between 2-aminobenzaldehydes with propargyl amine was studied. The study provided, for the first time, direct access to 3-aminoquinolines in one step starting from readily available starting materials (see scheme). Elegantly designed experiments were employed to unravel the mechanism of this unprecedented rearrangement, which are corroborated by DFT calculations.

- One-pot friedlnder quinoline synthesis: Scope and limitations
-
A highly effective one-pot Friedlnder quinoline synthesis from o-nitroarylcarbaldehydes and ketones or aldehydes was developed and the scope and limitations of the method were examined. The o-nitroarylcarbaldehydes were reduced to o-aminoarylcarbaldehydes with iron in the presence of a catalytic amount of aqueous hydrochloric acid; the amino compounds were then condensed in situ with ketones or aldehydes to form mono- or disubstituted quinolines, respectively, in good-to-excellent yields (58-100%).

- A highly effective one-pot synthesis of quinolines from o-nitroarylcarbaldehydes
-
A simple and an efficient one-pot quinoline synthesis using inexpensive and readily available reagents was proposed. The solids were removed by filtration and the filtrate was treated with ketone and powdered KOH. The o-Nitroarylcarbaldehydes were reduced to aminocarbaldehydes with iron in the presence of catalytic HCl and subsequently condensed in situ with aldehydes or ketones to form mono- or di-substituted quinolines in high yields. The method can be used to prepare 2,3-disubstituted quinolines. A mixture of isomers was generated when an unsymmetrical ketone was used, which proved to be easily separable by silica gel column chromatography. The one-pot procedure is mild enough to allow a phenyl-substituted α,β-unsaturated ketone for using as a reactant under basic conditions in refluxing ethanol without significant competition from 1,4-Michael addition. The method provides efficient means to synthesize biologically active natural and unnatural quinoline-derived compounds.
