Chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed enantioselective annulation of acyclic enecarbamates to: In situ -generated ortho -quinone methides
The first organocatalytic asymmetric reaction of acyclic enecarbamates with o-quinone methides is disclosed. BINOL-based phosphoric acid catalysts were found to be suitable for the annulation reaction. With 10 mol% of the TRIP catalyst, high yields as well as excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities are achieved for a variety of 2,3,4-trisubstituted chroman products.

5-Nitrofuran-2-ylmethyl group as a potential bioreductively activated pro-drug system
5-Substituted isoquinolin-1-ones have been synthesised by one-pot Curtius rearrangement of the corresponding substituted 3-phenylpropenoyl azides and cyclisation. Arylmethylation of the anions of the isoquinolinones with benzyl halides [4-methoxybenzyl chloride, 2-(chloromethyl)furan and 5-nitro-2-(tosyloxymethyl)furan] takes place exclusively at nitrogen. Nitration of 2-(furan-2-ylmethyl)isoquinolin-1-one in strongly acidic medium gives 2-(5-nitrofuran-2-ylmethyl)isoquinolin-1-one, whereas weaker acidic conditions lead to dinitration. Curtius rearrangement of 3-carboranylbutanoyl azide and trapping with 5-nitrofuran-2-ylmethanol gives 5-nitrofuran-2-ylmethyl N-(3-carboranylpropyl)carbamate. Biomimetic reduction of these nitrofuranylmethyl derivatives of anticancer drugs triggers release of the parent drugs. Thus, these nitrofurans have potential applications as pro-drugs for selective release of therapeutic drugs in hypoxic solid tumours.
