- Synthesis of Pyrido[2,3-b]indole Derivatives via Rhodium-Catalyzed Cyclization of Indoles and 1-Sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles
-
Acyloxy-substituted α,β-unsaturated imines generated in situ from triazoles can act as aza-[4 C] synthons and be trapped by indoles in a stepwise [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, thus providing rapid access to valuable pyrido[2,3-b]indoles in high yields. Attractive features of this reaction system include operational simplicity, readily available substrates, construction of sterically demanding quaternary centers, and convenient derivatization using triflate. (Figure presented.).

- Discovery of a lead series of potent benzodiazepine 5-HT2C receptor agonists with high selectivity in functional and binding assays
-
A series of potential new 5-HT2 receptor scaffolds based on a simplification of the clinically studied, 5-HT2CR agonist vabicaserin, were designed. An in vivo feeding assay early in our screening process played an instrumental part in the lead identification process, leading us to focus on a 6,5,7-tricyclic scaffold. A subsequent early SAR investigation provided potent agonists of the 5-HT2C receptor that were highly selective in both functional and binding assays, had good rat PK properties and that significantly reduced acute food intake in the rat.

- Methylation of C(sp3)-H/C(sp2)-H bonds with methanol catalyzed by cobalt system
-
A highly efficient Co-based catalytic system, composed of a commercially available Co salt, a tetradentate phosphine ligand P-(CH2CH2PPh2)3(PP3), and a base (denoted as [Co]/PP3/base), is developed for the methylation of C(sp3)-H and C(sp2)-H bonds using methanol as a methylating reagent. The Co(BF4)2.6H2O/PP3/K2CO3 catalytic system showed high catalytic activity for the methylation of C-H bonds in aryl alkyl ketones, aryl acetonitriles, and indoles, with wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance, and methylsubstituted products were obtained in good to excellent yields at 100 °C. This cheap, readily available, and highly efficient Co-based catalytic system may have promising applications in methylation reaction using methanol.

- Asymmetric Synthesis of Furo[3,4-b]indoles by Catalytic [3+2] Cycloaddition of Indoles with Epoxides
-
A highly efficient N,N′-dioxide-NiII catalyst system for the catalytic [3+2] cycloaddition of indoles with epoxides through C-C cleavage of oxiranes was accomplished under mild conditions. It provided a promising approach for chiral furo[3,4-b]indoles in up to 98 % yield with up to 91 % enantiomeric excess (ee) and >95:5 diastereomeric ratio (d.r.). A promising approach: Catalytic de-aromatic [3+2] cycloaddition of indoles with epoxides by C-C cleavage of oxiranes is accomplished by using a highly efficient N,N′-dioxide-NiII catalyst system. A range of chiral furo[3,4-b]indoles is obtained with high enantiomeric excesses and diastereomeric ratios.

- Synthesis of functionalized indole- and benzo-fused heterocyclic derivatives through anionic benzyne cyclization
-
The development of a new method for the regioselective synthesis of functionalized indoles and six-membered benzo-fused N-, O-, and S-heterocycles is reported. The key step involves the generation of a benzyne-tethered vinyl or aryllithium compound that undergoes a subsequent intramolecular anionic cyclization. Reaction of the organolithium intermediates with selected electrophiles allows the preparation of a wide variety of indole, tetrahydrocarbazole, dihydrofenantridine, dibenzopyran, and dibenzothiopyran derivatives. Finally, the application of this strategy to the appropriate starting materials allows the preparation of some tryptamine and serotonin analogues.
