This paper reports the synthesis of polyene oligomers (" oligoenes") that contain up to 15 double bonds that are identical to the "all five-membered ring" species formed through cyclopolymerization of diisopropyldipropargylmalonate. The oligoenes contain

An unprecedented silver-catalyzed cascade 1,6-addition/5-exo-dig cyclization reaction between para-quinone methides and propargyl malonates under mild reaction conditions has been described. This reaction provides an efficient method to construct versatile spiro[4.5]cyclohexadienones in moderate to excellent yields with high atom economy and scalability.
When cobalt-mediated [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction dares go astray: Synthesis of unprecedented cobalt(III)-complexes
Delorme, Marion,Punter, Alexander,Oliveira, Raquel,Aubert, Corinne,Carissan, Yannick,Parrain, Jean-Luc,Amatore, Muriel,Nava, Paola,Commeiras, Laurent

In sharp contrast with the standard [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of diyne/ene, cobalt-mediated cycloadditions with γ-alkylidenebutenolide led to unprecedented cobalt(iii) polycyclic complexes. A plausible mechanism supported by a computational study based on an unusual fragmentation of the butenolide moiety was postulated to account for this original reaction.
Periodically clickable polyesters: Study of intrachain self-segregation induced folding, crystallization, and mesophase formation

A series of polyesters based on 2-propargyl-1,3-propanediol or 2,2-dipropargyl-1,3-propanediol or 2-allyl-2-propargyl-1,3-propanediol and 1,20-eicosanedioic acid were prepared by solution polycondensation using the corresponding diacid chloride; these polyesters were quantitatively "clicked" with a fluoroalkyl azide, namely CF3(CF 2)7CH2CH2N3, to yield polyesters carrying long-chain alkylene segments in the backbone and either one or two perfluoroalkyl segments located at periodic intervals along the polymer chain. The immiscibility of the alkylene and fluoroalkyl segments causes the polymer chains to fold in a zigzag fashion to facilitate the segregation of these segments; the folded chains further organize in the solid state to form a lamellar structure with alternating domains of alkyl (HC) and fluoroalkyl (FC) segments. Evidence for the self-segregation is provided by DSC, SAXS, WAXS, and TEM studies; in two of the samples, the DSC thermograms showed two distinct endotherms associated with the melting of the individual domains, while the WAXS patterns confirm the existence of two separate peaks corresponding to the interchain distances within the crystalline lattices of the HC and FC domains. SAXS data, on the other hand, reveal the formation of an extended lamellar morphology with an interlamellar spacing that matches reasonably well with those estimated from TEM studies. Interestingly, a smectic-type liquid crystalline phase is observed at temperatures between the two melting transitions. These systems present a unique opportunity to develop interesting nanostructured polymeric materials with precise control over both the domain size and morphology; importantly, the domain sizes are far smaller than those typically observed in traditional block copolymers.

In this report, a synthetic protocol for the preparation of phosphinic dipeptides of type 5 is presented. These compounds serve as valuable building blocks for the development of highly potent phosphinopeptidic inhibitors of medicinally relevant Zn-metalloproteases and aspartyl proteases. The proposed method is based on the tandem esterification of α-aminophosphinic and acrylic acids under silylating conditions in order to subsequently participate in a P-Michael reaction. The scope of the transformation was investigated by using a diverse set of readily available acrylic acids and (R)-α-aminophosphinic acids, and high yields were achieved in all cases. In most examples reported herein, the isolation of biologically relevant (R,S)-diastereoisomers became possible by simple crystallization from the crude products, thus enhancing the operational simplicity of the proposed method. Finally, functional groups corresponding to acidic or basic natural amino acids are also compatible with the reaction conditions. Based on the above, we expect that the practicality of the proposed protocol will facilitate the discovery of pharmacologically useful bioactive phosphinic peptides.
Preparation of mono-substituted malonic acid half oxyesters (SMAHOs)

The use of mono-substituted malonic acid half oxyesters (SMAHOs) has been hampered by the sporadic references describing their preparation. An evaluation of different approaches has been achieved, allowing to define the best strategies to introduce diversity on both the malonic position and the ester function. A classical alkylation step of a malonate by an alkyl halide followed by a monosaponification gave access to reagents bearing different substituents at the malonic position, including functionalized derivatives. On the other hand, the development of a monoesterification step of a substituted malonic acid derivative proved to be the best entry for diversity at the ester function, rather than the use of an intermediate Meldrum acid. Both these transformations are characterized by their simplicity and efficiency, allowing a straightforward access to SMAHOs from cheap starting materials.

Page/Page column 49; 50, (2021/04/23)
The present invention relates to the field of oncology, laboratory tools and methods, and especially anti-tumor DNA crosslinking agents. Most patients with advanced solid tumors develop resistance to chemotherapy due to the ability of cancer cells to repair or tolerate sustained DNA damages. The inventors showed that the compounds according to the present invention allow the detection and visualization of alkylated DNA damages induced by PBDs without altering their DNA crosslinking ability. This enables the study of the effect and properties of PBDs. In particular, the present invention relates new derivates of PBD molecules and their synthesis. The present invention also relates to a method for visualizing DNA crosslinking; to a method for assessing the resistance of a tumor to a crosslinking agent and to a method for identifying a molecule or treatment for improving the efficiency of a crosslinking agent.

The chemical inertness of abundant and commercially available alkyl chlorides precludes their widespread use as reactants in chemical transformations. Presented in this work is a metallaphotoredox methodology to achieve the catalytic intramolecular reductive cyclization of unactivated alkyl chlorides with tethered alkenes. The cleavage of strong C(sp3)?Cl bonds is mediated by a highly nucleophilic low-valent cobalt or nickel intermediate generated by visible-light photoredox reduction employing a copper photosensitizer. The high basicity and multidentate nature of the ligands are key to obtaining efficient metal catalysts for the functionalization of unactivated alkyl chlorides.

The gold-catalyzed hydrofluorination reaction of internal alkynes using hydrofluoric acid is reported. Notably, those conditions use one of the most economical sources of HF and are free of additional additives. Both symmetrical and unsymmetrical internal alkynes can be utilized, and the use of alkynes bearing a fluorinated group at the propargylic position as substrates allowed for a regioselective hydrofluorination reaction.

We have explored here the scope of the age-old diethyl malonate-based accesses to α-amino esters involving Knoevenagel condensations of diethyl malonate on aldehydes, reductions of the resulting alkylidenemalonates, the preparation of the corresponding α-hydroxyimino esters and their final reduction. This synthetic pathway turned out to be general although some unexpected limitations were encountered. The synthetic modifications of some of the intermediates - using Suzuki-Miyaura coupling or cycloadditions - before undertaking the oximation step - provided accesses to further α-amino esters. Moreover, other pathways to α-hydroxyimino esters were explored including an attempt to improve the cycloadditions between ethyl β-bromo-α-hydroxyiminocarboxylate and various alkylfuranes.
