- Direct Access to Primary Amines from Alkenes by Selective Metal-Free Hydroamination
-
Direct and selective synthesis of primary amines from easily available precursors is attractive yet challenging. Herein, we report the rapid synthesis of primary amines from alkenes via metal-free regioselective hydroamination at room temperature. Ammonium carbonate was used as ammonia surrogate for the first time, allowing for efficient conversion of terminal and internal alkenes into linear, α-branched, and α-tertiary primary amines under mild conditions. This method provides a straightforward and powerful approach to a wide spectrum of advanced, highly functionalized primary amines which are of particular interest in pharmaceutical chemistry and other areas.

- Biocatalytic Formal Anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination and Hydration of Aryl Alkenes
-
Biocatalytic anti-Markovnikov alkene hydroamination and hydration were achieved based on two concepts involving enzyme cascades: epoxidation-isomerization-amination for hydroamination and epoxidation-isomerization-reduction for hydration. An Escherichia coli strain coexpressing styrene monooxygenase (SMO), styrene oxide isomerase (SOI), ω-transaminase (CvTA), and alanine dehydrogenase (AlaDH) catalyzed the hydroamination of 12 aryl alkenes to give the corresponding valuable terminal amines in high conversion (many ≥86%) and exclusive anti-Markovnikov selectivity (>99:1). Another E. coli strain coexpressing SMO, SOI, and phenylacetaldehyde reductase (PAR) catalyzed the hydration of 12 aryl alkenes to the corresponding useful terminal alcohols in high conversion (many ≥80%) and very high anti-Markovnikov selectivity (>99:1). Importantly, SOI was discovered for stereoselective isomerization of a chiral epoxide to a chiral aldehyde, providing some insights on enzymatic epoxide rearrangement. Harnessing this stereoselective rearrangement, highly enantioselective anti-Markovnikov hydroamination and hydration were demonstrated to convert α-methylstyrene to the corresponding (S)-amine and (S)-alcohol in 84-81% conversion with 97-92% ee, respectively. The biocatalytic anti-Markovnikov hydroamination and hydration of alkenes, utilizing cheap and nontoxic chemicals (O2, NH3, and glucose) and cells, provide an environmentally friendly, highly selective, and high-yielding synthesis of terminal amines and alcohols.

- Selective hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines catalyzed by a novel iron complex
-
Hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines constitutes an atom-efficient and environmentally benign synthetic reaction. Herein we present a novel complex based on earth-abundant iron, and its application in the catalytic homogeneous hydrogenation of (hetero)aromatic, benzylic, and aliphatic nitriles to selectively form primary amines.

- Design and synthesis of novel androgen receptor antagonists via molecular modeling
-
Several androgen receptor (AR) antagonists are clinically prescribed to treat prostate cancer. Unfortunately, many patients become resistant to the existing AR antagonists. To overcome this, a novel AR antagonist candidate called DIMN was discovered by our research group in 2013. In order to develop compounds with improved potency, we designed novel DIMN derivatives based on a docking study and substituted carbons with heteroatom moieties. Encouraging in vitro results for compounds 1b, 1c, 1e, 3c, and 4c proved that the new design was successful. Among the newly synthesized compounds, 1e exhibited the strongest inhibitory effect on LNCaP cell growth (IC50= 0.35 μM) and also acted as a competitive AR antagonist with selectivity over the estrogen receptor (ER) and the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). A docking study of compound 1e fully supported these biological results. Compound 1e is considered to be a novel, potent and AR-specific antagonist for treating prostate cancer. Thus, our study successfully applied molecular modeling and bioisosteric replacement for hit optimization. The methods here provide a guide for future development of drug candidates through structure-based drug discovery and chemical modifications.

- Selective Hydrogenation of Nitriles to Primary Amines Catalyzed by a Cobalt Pincer Complex
-
The catalytic hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines represents an atom-efficient and environmentally benign reduction methodology in organic chemistry. This has been accomplished in recent years mainly with precious-metal-based catalysts, with a single exception. Here we report the first homogeneous Co-catalyzed hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines. Several (hetero)aromatic, benzylic, and aliphatic nitriles undergo hydrogenation to the corresponding primary amines in good to excellent yields under the reaction conditions.

- Catalytic N-sulfonyliminium ion-mediated cyclizations to α-vinyl-substituted isoquinolines and β-carbolines and applications in metathesis
-
Catalytic Sn(OTf)2-induced cyclization of linear, aryl-containing allylic N,O-acetals produced vinyl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines and tetrahydro-1H-β-carbolines. The usefulness of the vinyl moiety in the resulting products was demonstrated via the synthesis of various key building blocks for alkaloid structures. The α-vinyl moiety was utilized in a [2,3] sigmatropic rearrangement, in ring-closing metathesis and a cross-metathesis-based synthesis of vincantril, an antianoxia agent, and a synthetic member of the vincamine type natural products.

- Pictet-Spengler condensation of N-sulfonyl-β-phenethylamines with α- chloro-α-phenylselenoesters. New synthesis of 1,2,3,4- tetrahydroisoquinoline-1-carboxylates
-
The reaction of N-sulfonyl-β-phenethylamines with α-chloro-a- phenylseleno acetate/propionate esters under Lewis acid promotion gives moderate to good yields of the corresponding 1,2,3, 4- tetrahydroisoquinoline-1-carboxylates. Varying degrees of diastereoselection were obtained using chiral sulfonamides and/or esters. Employing this strategy, the achievement of a new total synthesis of Calycotomine is reported.

- MOLECULAR CONFORMATION AND ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF AZOMETHINES. VIII. DIPOLE MOMENTS OF 3,4-DIHYDROISOQUINOLINES
-
The dipole moments of some methyl derivatives of 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline have been measured in benzene at 25 deg C and the experimental directions determined.The correlation with the theoretical dipole moments of the corresponding benzaldimines supports the view that the 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines can be used as models for the Z conformation of N-benzylidenemethylamines.Moreover, the differences between the dipole moment of 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines and that of the corresponding benzaldimines can be ascribed to conjugation across the -CH2-CH2- bridge.Experimental and calculated values of the methyl replacement vectors are in good agreement.

- Diazaestrones and analogs. I. Pharmacological study and synthesis of heterosteroid analogs to establish structure-analgesic activity relationships
-
With the intention of showing the effect, about pharmacological properties, in replacing two estron asymetric carbon by nitrogen atoms and removal of angular methyl from steroid, stereospecific synthesis of 8,13-diazaestron and several substituted similar compounds was realized from β-1-(succinimidoethyl)-dihydroisoquinolines, precursors of a C open ring synthesis. The splitting of the 2-methoxydiazaestron methyl ester was carried out by mean of binaphthylphosphoric acid, and synthesis of several modified analogs of heterosteroid, was carried out to determine the effect of aromatic ring reduction, lactamic carbonyl reduction, and distance between 8 and 13 nitrogen atoms, about pharmacological activity. Hormonal, spasmolytic and analgesic activities were studied, good results were observed in analgesic activity.
