- Selective Synthesis of β-Ketonitriles via Catalytic Carbopalladation of Dinitriles
-
A practical, convenient, and highly selective method of synthesizing β-ketonitriles from the Pd-catalyzed addition of organoboron reagents to dinitriles has been developed. This method provides excellent functional-group tolerance, a broad scope of substrates, and the convenience of using commercially available substrates. The method is expected to show further utility in future synthetic procedures.

- Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Dual-Stage Antimalarial Pyrazolo[3,4- b]pyridines
-
Malaria remains one of the most deadly infectious diseases, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths each year, primarily in young children and pregnant mothers. Here, we report the discovery and derivatization of a series of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines targeting Plasmodium falciparum, the deadliest species of the malaria parasite. Hit compounds in this series display sub-micromolar in vitro activity against the intraerythrocytic stage of the parasite as well as little to no toxicity against the human fibroblast BJ and liver HepG2 cell lines. In addition, our hit compounds show good activity against the liver stage of the parasite but little activity against the gametocyte stage. Parasitological profiles, including rate of killing, docking, and molecular dynamics studies, suggest that our compounds may target the Qo binding site of cytochrome bc1.

- Microwave synthesis of 1-aryl-1H-pyrazole-5-amines
-
A microwave-mediated synthesis of 1H-pyrazole-5-amines utilizing 1 M HCl at 150 °C was developed in order to provide products in a matter of minutes with minimal purification. Most reactions are complete in only 10 min and can be isolated via a simple filtration without the need for further purification by column chromatography or recrystallization. This method tolerates a range of functional groups and can be performed on milligram to gram scales.

- A Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution cascade: Via an asymmetric desymmetrization for the synthesis of bicyclic dihydrofurans
-
A Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution cascade of allylic meso-dicarbonates with 3-oxo-nitriles has been developed for the synthesis of chiral bicyclic dihydrofurans bearing two vicinal carbon stereocenters. The reaction proceeds via an asymmetric desymmetrization process with the desired products being obtained in high yields and with up to 97% ee. The reaction was performed on a gram-scale and the corresponding bicyclic dihydrofurans could undergo several transformations. The methodology provides an efficient synthetic route to biologically active chiral bicyclic dihydrofurans derivatives.

- Preparation of 3,4-Substituted-5-Aminopyrazoles and 4-Substituted-2-Aminothiazoles
-
3,4-Substituted-5-aminopyrazoles and 4-substituted-2-aminothiazoles are frequently used intermediates in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery projects. We report an expedient flexible synthesis of 3,4-substituted-5-aminopyrazoles (35 examples), based on palladium-mediated α-arylation of β-ketonitriles with aryl bromides. A library of 4-substituted-2-aminothiazoles (21 examples) was assembled by a sequence employing Suzuki coupling of newly prepared, properly protected pinacol ester and MIDA ester of 4-boronic acid-2-aminothiazole with (hetero)aryl halides.

- Chemoselective efficient synthesis of functionalized β-oxonitriles through cyanomethylation of Weinreb amides
-
A synthesis of β-oxonitriles is reported via the generation of R1R2CLiCN species followed by the trapping with variously decorated Weinreb amides. The optimization study revealed that lithiation of acetonitriles is best accomplished by deprotonation with MeLi-LiBr at low temperature. The protocol can be conveniently adapted to the synthesis of α-mono or α,α-disubstituted cyanoketones. 15N- and 17O-NMR data are reported for selected compounds. This journal is

- Palladium-catalyzed carbonylation with Mo(CO)for the synthesis of benzoylacetonitriles

Benzoylacetonitriles were synthesized by the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of aryl iodides and trimethylsilylacetonitrile using Mo(CO)as a carbon monoxide source. Pd(PPhCland CuFwere employed as the catalyst and activator, respectively. A variety of aryl iodides bearing alkyl, alkoxy, fluoro, chloro, bromo, nitrile, ester, and ketone groups afforded the corresponding benzoylacetonitriles in moderate to good yields.
