- Alcohol Oxidations Using Reduced Polyoxovanadates
-
A full account of our recently communicated room temperature alcohol oxidation using reduced polyoxovanadates (r-POVs) is presented. Extensive optimizations revealed optimal conditions employing 0.02 equiv. of r-POV catalyst Cs5(V14As8O42Cl), 5 equiv. tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide (tBuOOH) as the terminal co-oxidant, in an acetone solvent for the quantitative oxidation of aryl-substituted secondary alcohols to their ketone products. The substrate scope tolerates most aryl substituted secondary alcohols in good to quantitative yields while alkyl secondary and primary activated alcohols were sluggish in comparison under similar conditions. Catalyst recyclability was successful on a 1.0?mmol scale of starting alcohol 1-phenylethanol. The oxidation was also successfully promoted by the VIV/VV mixed valent polyoxovanadate (POV) Cs11Na3Cl5(V15O36Cl). Finally, a third POV, Cs2.64(V5O9)(AsO4)2, was investigated for catalytic activity using our established reaction protocol, but proved ineffective as compared to the other two r-POV catalysts. This study expands the field of POM-mediated alcohol oxidations to include underexplored r-POV catalysts. While our catalysts do not supplant the best catalysts known for the transformation, their study may inform the development of other novel oxidative transformations mediated by r-POVs.

- One-pot sustainable synthesis of tertiary alcohols by combining ruthenium-catalysed isomerisation of allylic alcohols and chemoselective addition of polar organometallic reagents in deep eutectic solvents
-
Ru(iv)-Catalysed redox isomerisation of allylic alcohols has, for the first time, been successfully assembled with the chemoselective addition of organolithium or organomagnesium reagents to the in situ formed ketones, en route to tertiary alcohols, employing deep eutectic solvents as environmentally friendly reaction media. The overall transformation, which formally involves three consecutive and different steps such as (i) the reduction of a C-C double bond, (ii) the oxidation of a secondary carbinol moiety, and (iii) a chemoselective C-C bond formation, takes place in protic and biorenewable eutectic mixtures in a sequential one-pot fashion using a commercially and easily available catalytic system, with excellent conversions (up to 99% yield), at room temperature and under air in the last step, with no concomitant reduction or enolisation processes, and with high atom economy, in agreement with the principles of the so-called green chemistry.

- A highly regio- and stereoselective synthesis of ?±-fluorinated imides via fluorination of chiral enamides
-
A highly ??-facial selective and regioselective fluorination of chiral enamides is described. The reaction involves an enantioselective fluorination exclusively at the electron-rich enamide olefin with N-F reagents such as Selectfluor and N-fluoro-benzenesulfonimide [NFSI] accompanied by trapping of the ?2-fluoro-iminium cationic intermediate with water. The resulting N,O-hemiacetal could be oxidized using Dess-Martin periodinane, leading to an asymmetric sequence for syntheses of chiral ?±-fluoro-imides and optically enriched ?±-fluoro-ketones.

- Ruthenium-Catalyzed Redox Isomerizations inside Living Cells
-
Tailored ruthenium(IV) complexes can catalyze the isomerization of allylic alcohols into saturated carbonyl derivatives under physiologically relevant conditions, and even inside living mammalian cells. The reaction, which involves ruthenium-hydride intermediates, is bioorthogonal and biocompatible, and can be used for the "in cellulo" generation of fluorescent and bioactive probes. Overall, our research reveals a novel metal-based tool for cellular intervention, and comes to further demonstrate the compatibility of organometallic mechanisms with the complex environment of cells.

- One-Pot Transformation of Ketoximes into Optically Active Alcohols and Amines by Sequential Action of Laccases and Ketoreductases or ω-Transaminases
-
An enzymatic one-pot process for asymmetric transformation of prochiral ketoximes into alcohols or amines was developed by sequential coupling of a laccase-catalyzed deoximation either with a ketone reduction (ketoreductase, KRED) or bioamination (ω-transaminase, ω-TA) in aqueous medium. An accurate selection of biocatalysts provided the corresponding products in excellent enantiomeric excesses and overall conversions ranging from 83 to >99 % for alcohols and 70 to >99 % for amines. Likewise, the employment of exclusively 1 % (w/w) of Cremophor, a polyethoxylated castor oil, as co-solvent enabled to reach concentrations up to 100 mM in the chiral alcohols cascade.

- Isomerization of Allylic Alcohols to Ketones Catalyzed by Well-Defined Iron PNP Pincer Catalysts
-
[Fe(PNP)(CO)HCl] (PNP=di-(2-diisopropylphosphanyl-ethyl)amine), activated in situ with KOtBu, is a highly active catalyst for the isomerization of allylic alcohols to ketones without an external hydrogen supply. High reaction rates were obtained at 80 °C, but the catalyst is also sufficiently active at room temperature with most substrates. The reaction follows a self-hydrogen-borrowing mechanism, as verified by DFT calculations. An alternative isomerization through alkene insertion and β-hydride elimination could be excluded on the basis of a much higher barrier. In alcoholic solvents, the ketone product is further reduced to the saturated alcohol.

The hydroxyethoxy substituent on the arene induces water-solubility of the resulting complexes (up to 755 g L-1); in particular derivative 2a being one hundred times more soluble in water than its p-cymene congener [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene){P(OMe)3}]. Compounds 2a-e are active catalysts for isomerization of allylic alcohols into the corresponding ketones in aqueous medium. The best performances are obtained with derivatives 2a-c which have shown the highest activity reported to date for the isomerization of aromatic or disubstituted substrates in water.

- Programming cascade reactions interfacing biocatalysis with transition-metal catalysis in: Deep Eutectic Solvents as biorenewable reaction media
-
The first application of Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) in the asymmetric bioreduction of ketones has been accomplished for purified ketoreductases (KREDs). The performance of the biocatalysts was enhanced by increasing the percentage of neoteric solvent in DES-buffer mixtures. At a buffer content of 50% (w/w) and even 20% (w/w), the combination of either choline chloride (ChCl)/glycerol (Gly) (1:2) or ChCl/sorbitol (1:1) proved to be most effective for achieving up to >99% conversion and up to >99% enantiomeric excess of the corresponding secondary alcohols. Moreover, this reaction medium was used to perform the first example of a chemoenzymatic cascade process in DES-buffer mixtures, namely the ruthenium-catalysed isomerisation of racemic allylic alcohols coupled with a further enantioselective bioreduction, in both sequential and concurrent modes.

The ruthenium-catalyzed redox isomerization of allylic alcohols was successfully coupled with the enantioselective enzymatic ketone reduction (mediated by KREDs) in a concurrent process in aqueous medium. The overall transformation, formally the asymmetric reduction of allylic alcohols, took place with excellent conversions and enantioselectivities, under mild reaction conditions, employing commercially and readily available catalytic systems, and without external coenzymes or cofactors. Optimization resulted in a multistep approach and a genuine cascade reaction where the metal catalyst and biocatalyst coexist from the beginning.

Very high conversions could be obtained using a solvent-free reaction system. A detailed DFT study reveals a self-dehydrogenation/hydrogenation reaction mechanism which was verified by the isolation of the α,β-unsaturated ketone as intermediate and a deuterium labeling experiment. It also provided a rationale for the observed selectivity and the higher efficiency of phenyl over isopropyl substitution.

Here, we first report that photoexcitation of Hantzsch ester can directly activate chromium reagents through a single-electron transfer process. The synthetic application was demonstrated through a photoredox decarboxylative allylation of aldehydes with feedstock butadiene without exogenous photocatalysts, metallic reductants, or additives.

- Novel benzene-based carbamates for ache/bche inhibition: Synthesis and ligand/structure-oriented sar study
-
A series of new benzene-based derivatives was designed, synthesized and comprehensively characterized. All of the tested compounds were evaluated for their in vitro ability to potentially inhibit the acetyl-and butyrylcholinesterase enzymes. The selectivity index of individual molecules to cholinesterases was also determined. Generally, the inhibitory potency was stronger against butyryl-compared to acetylcholinesterase; however, some of the compounds showed a promising inhibition of both enzymes. In fact, two compounds (23, benzyl ethyl(1-oxo-1-phenylpropan-2-yl)carbamate and 28, benzyl (1-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-oxopropan-2-yl) (methyl)carbamate) had a very high selectivity index, while the second one (28) reached the lowest inhibitory concentration IC50 value, which corresponds quite well with galanthamine. Moreover, comparative receptor-independent and receptor-dependent structure–activity studies were conducted to explain the observed variations in inhibiting the potential of the investigated carbamate series. The principal objective of the ligand-based study was to comparatively analyze the molecular surface to gain insight into the electronic and/or steric factors that govern the ability to inhibit enzyme activities. The spatial distribution of potentially important steric and electrostatic factors was determined using the probability-guided pharmacophore mapping procedure, which is based on the iterative variable elimination method. Additionally, planar and spatial maps of the host–target interactions were created for all of the active compounds and compared with the drug molecules using the docking methodology.

Silyl enol ethers were used to trap the radicals, furnishing ketones after successive single-electron oxidation and elimination of the silyl cation.

- Solvent free, light induced 1,2-bromine shift reaction of α-bromo ketones
-
Photolysis of α-bromopropiophenones in acetonitrile results in formation of β-bromopropiophenones with good product selectivity, which can be coined as 1,2-Br shift reaction. The product selectivity increases when the reaction is done in neat or solid state, where only the 1,2-Br shift product is formed in some cases. The reaction is suggested to proceed by C–Br bond homolysis to give a radical pair, followed by disproportionation and conjugate addition of HBr to the α,β-unsaturated ketone intermediate. When the unsaturated intermediate is stabilized by an extra conjugation, the reaction stops at the stage, in which the unsaturated ketone becomes a major product. The synthetic method described in this research fits in a category of eco-friendly organic synthesis nicely since the reaction does not use volatile organic solvents and any other additives such as acid, base or metal catalysts, etc. Besides, the method fits into perfect atom economy, which does not give any side products. The synthetic method should find much advantage over other alternative methods to obtain β-bromo carbonyl compounds.

- Manganese complex-catalyzed oxidation and oxidative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols by hydrogen peroxide
-
The highly efficient catalytic oxidation and oxidative kinetic resolution (OKR) of secondary alcohols has been achieved using a synthetic manganese catalyst with low loading and hydrogen peroxide as an environmentally benign oxidant in the presence of a small amount of sulfuric acid as an additive. The product yields were high (up to 93%) for alcohol oxidation and the enantioselectivity was excellent (>90% ee) for the OKR of secondary alcohols. Mechanistic studies revealed that alcohol oxidation occurs via hydrogen atom (H-atom) abstraction from an α-CH bond of the alcohol substrate and a two-electron process by an electrophilic Mn-oxo species. Density functional theory calculations revealed the difference in reaction energy barriers for H-atom abstraction from the α-CH bonds of R- and S-enantiomers by a chiral high-valent manganese-oxo complex, supporting the experimental result from the OKR of secondary alcohols.

- Room-temperature catalytic oxidation of alcohols with the polyoxovanadate salt Cs5(V14As8O42Cl)
-
While many known methods for oxidation mediated by polyoxometalates (POMs) employ environmentally friendly co-oxidants, they tend to employ large catalyst loadings (e.g. 40 mol%) and costly high reaction temperatures (~90-135 °C) that potentially contribute to the degradation of the catalyst and reduce their effectiveness. Herein, we present some initial results demonstrating a room temperature catalytic oxidation using the reduced salt-inclusion polyoxometalate, Cs5(V14As8O42Cl), that contains polyoxovanadate (POV) clusters as an efficient catalyst (e.g., 2 mol%) in the transformation of secondary alcohols to their corresponding ketones in very good to quantitative yields. Further, the catalyst can be suspended on celite and recycled.

- Base-Catalyzed Stereospecific Isomerization of Electron-Deficient Allylic Alcohols and Ethers through Ion-Pairing
-
A mild base-catalyzed strategy for the isomerization of allylic alcohols and allylic ethers has been developed. Experimental and computational investigations indicate that transition metal catalysts are not required when basic additives are present. As in the case of using transition metals under basic conditions, the isomerization catalyzed solely by base also follows a stereospecific pathway. The reaction is initiated by a rate-limiting deprotonation. Formation of an intimate ion pair between an allylic anion and the conjugate acid of the base results in efficient transfer of chirality. Through this mechanism, stereochemical information contained in the allylic alcohols is transferred to the ketone products. The stereospecific isomerization is also applicable for the first time to allylic ethers, yielding synthetically valuable enantioenriched (up to 97% ee) enol ethers.

- Chemoselective synthesis of ketones and ketimines by addition of organometallic reagents to secondary amides
-
The development of efficient and selective transformations is crucial in synthetic chemistry as it opens new possibilities in the total synthesis of complex molecules. Applying such reactions to the synthesis of ketones is of great importance, as this motif serves as a synthetic handle for the elaboration of numerous organic functionalities. In this context, we report a general and chemoselective method based on an activation/addition sequence on secondary amides allowing the controlled isolation of structurally diverse ketones and ketimines. The generation of a highly electrophilic imidoyl triflate intermediate was found to be pivotal in the observed exceptional functional group tolerance, allowing the facile addition of readily available Grignard and diorganozinc reagents to amides, and avoiding commonly observed over-addition or reduction side reactions. The methodology has been applied to the formal synthesis of analogues of the antineoplastic agent Bexarotene and to the rapid and efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical diketones in a one-pot procedure.

Amination with ethylene diamine was efficient even in the absence of an additive ligand, whereas no reaction occurred with ethanolamine whatever the conditions used. The anilinoethanolamines were evaluated as NR2B receptor antagonists in a functional inhibition assay. Aminoethylanilines displayed inhibition effects close to that of ifenprodil.

In contrast to the normal oxidative Heck coupling, this new method works in the absence of a base, oxygen, or other external oxidants. With a wide variety of substrates tolerated, the method broadens the scope of palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. Copyright

- Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ruthenium: an efficient catalyst for the redox isomerization of functionalized allylic alcohols into carbonyl compounds
-
The catalytic activity of the ruthenium(II) complex [RuCp*(CH3CN)3][PF6] 1 in the transposition of allylic alcohols into carbonyl compounds, in acetonitrile, is reported. This catalyst has proven to be able to catalyze the transformation of poorly reactive and/or functionalized substrates under smooth conditions.

- Axially chiral NHC-Pd(II) complexes in the oxidative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols using molecular oxygen as a terminal oxidant
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Axially chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) Pd(II) complexes were prepared from optically active 1,1′-binaphthalenyl- 2,2′-diamine (BINAM) and H8-BINAM and applied in the oxidative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols using molecular oxygen as a terminal oxidant. The corresponding sec-alcohols can be obtained in good yields with moderate to good enantioselectivities.

- Selective iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of Grignard reagents with enol triflates, acid chlorides, and dichloroarenes
-
Cheap, readily available, air stable, nontoxic, and environmentally benign iron salts such as Fe(acac)3 are excellent precatalysts for the cross-coupling of Grignard reagents with alkenyl triflates and acid chlorides. Moreover, it is shown that dichloroarene and -heteroarene derivatives as the substrates can be selectively monoalkylated by this method. All cross-coupling reactions proceed very rapidly under notably mild conditions and turned out to be compatible with a variety of functional groups in both reaction partners. A detailed analysis of the preparative results suggests that iron-catalyzed C-C bond formations can occur via different pathways. Thus, it is likely that reactions of methylmagnesium halides involve iron-ate complexes as the active components, whereas reactions of Grignard reagents with two or more carbon atoms are effected by highly reduced iron-clusters of the formal composition [Fe(MgX)2]n generated in situ. Control experiments using the ate-complex [Me4Fe]Li2 corroborate this interpretation.

- One-pot chemoselective functionalization of arylsilanes via cascade metal-metal exchange reactions
-
A cascade-transmetallation sequence allows a one-pot conversion of arylsilanes into functionalized arylcoppers; they react with various types of electrophiles (allylic halides, acid chlorides, bromoalkynes); bimetallic zinc-copper-reagents can be prepared by this method either directly or in a sequential fashion.

- Tolan derivative, liquid crystal composition containing the derivative, and liquid crystal display device having the composition
-
A tolan derivative of a formula: STR1 where R represents a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms; X1, X2 and X3 independently represent a fluorine atom or a hydrogen atom, provided that one of them is necessarily a fluorine atom and the others are hydrogen atoms; and Y represents a nitrile group or a linear alkyl group having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms; and a liquid crystal composition containing the derivatives; and a liquid crystal display device having the composition are produced. The compound is compatible with other liquid crystal compounds, and by blending the compound with ordinary liquid crystal compounds, a liquid crystal composition having a broadened practical temperature range and an enlarged double refraction anisotropy is obtained.

- Diiodosilane. 2. A Multipurpose Reagent for Hydrolysis and Reductive Iodination of Ketals, Acetals, Ketones, and Aldehydes
-
The reaction patterns of diiodosilane (SiH2I2, DIS) with ketals, acetals, ketones, and aldehydes were explored.The reagent may be used for mild cleavage of ketals and acetals either hydrolytically to give the parent carbonyl functionality or reductively to produce the corresponding alkyl iodide.At low temperatures (-42 deg C) and short reaction times (few minutes), catalytic amounts (5-10 molpercent) of DIS provide clean deprotection of various ketals and acetals to yield ketones and aldehydes, with no apparent reduction of the latter.At temperatures above 0 deg C, DIS effectively reduces ketals and acetals to iodoalkanes.This reduction is quite general both with respect to ketals and acetals and unprotected ketones and aldehydes.Reaction rates, however, are strikingly dependent on the substrate, with the following tendencies: (a) aromatic functionalities are generally reduced much faster than their aliphatic analogues; (b) ketals and acetals are rapidly reduced to the corresponding iodoalkanes, while free aldehydes, and particularly ketones, are essentially inert under the reaction conditions (but can be significantly activated by catalytic amounts of iodine); (c) dimethyl ketals form the parent ketones preferentially, while all other ketals, including diethyl ketals and dioxolanes, are reduced to iodoalkanes.

- Synthesis and Liquid Crystal Behaviour of Further 4,4"-Disubstituted 2'-Fluoro-1,1':4',1"-Terphenyls
-
Further to earlier work on the liquid crystal properties of fluoro-1,1':4',1"-terphenyls we have now extended this series to include terminally fluoro- and cyano-substituted 2'-fluoro-1,1':4',1"-terphenyls, chiral 2'-fluoro-1,1':4',1"-terphenyls, and esters derived from 2'-fluoro-1,1':4',1"-terphenyls and incorporating the alkylcyclobutyl group.The preparations and transition temperatures for these series of compounds are presented and their transition temperatures and mesophase types are discussed.An interesting result from this work was the appearence of an S*C phase for one chiral homologue and of SC phases for the esters incorporating the alkylcyclobutyl group.The SC formation is attributed to the presence of the fluoro-substituent.Keywords: terphenyls, fluoroterphenyls, smectic C phases, cyclobutyl esters.

- CARBONYLATIVE CROSS-COUPLING REACTION OF ARYL IODIDES WITH ALKYLALUMINUMS BY PALLADIUM COMPLEX CATALYSIS
-
Secondary and/or tertiary alcohols and unsymmetrical ketones have been obtained in moderate to good yields by palladium-catalyzed (5 molpercent) carbonylative coupling of aryl iodides with alkylaluminum compounds under very mild conditions (20-50 deg C, 1 atm of carbon monoxide).The type of th reaction product depended on the aluminum reagent employed.While the selective formation of secondary alcohols was observed in the reaction with i-Bu3Al, the use of Et3Al led to a mixture of a ketone and two alcoholic products.With Et2AlCl predominantly unsymmetrical ketones were produced.In all cases, formation of directly cross-coupled products was not observed.DME and benzene can be used as solvents, but THF is unsuitable.Nickel catalysts were found to be ineffective for this reaction.

- Process for the manufacture of ketones
-
Ketones are prepared by reacting carboxylic acid halides, in particular carboxylic acid chlorides, with aluminum-alkyl compounds, optionally in the presence of an aluminum trihalide, in methylene chloride as the solvent, at a temperature between about 20° and about 100° C., preferably between about 30° and about 60° C., more preferably of about 40° C. which is the reflux temperature of the methylene chloride. When operating at a temperature above approximately 40° C., pressure higher than atmospheric is applied. The reaction mixture is worked up in usual manner, suitably by decomposition with water followed by distillation.
