- Antifungal Application of Rosin Derivatives from Renewable Pine Resin in Crop Protection
-
In the current work, we synthesized two series of dehydroabietyl amide derivatives from natural product rosin and evaluated their antifungal effects on Valsa mali, Phytophthora capsici, Botrytis cinerea, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Fusarium oxysporum. In vitro and in vivo antifungal activities results indicated that rosin-based amide compounds containing thiophene heterocycles had better inhibitory effects on B. cinerea. In particular, compound 5b (5-fluoro-2-thiophene dehydroabietyl amide) exhibited the excellent antifungal properties against B. cinerea with an EC50 of 0.490 mg/L, which was lower compared to the positive control penthiopyrad (0.562 mg/L). Physiological and biochemical studies showed that the primary action mechanism of compound 5b on B. cinerea changes mycelial morphology, increases cell membrane permeability, and inhibits the TCA pathway in respiratory metabolism. Furthermore, QSAR and SAR studies revealed that charge distribution of rosin-based amides derivatives have a key role in the antifungal activity through the hydrogen bonding, conjugation, and electrostatic interaction between the compounds and the receptors of the target. To sum up, this study contributes to the development of rosin-based antifungal agents with a novel structure and preferable biological activity.

- Sulfoxide ligand metal catalyzed oxidation of olefins
-
The enantioselective synthesis of isochroman motifs has been accomplished via Pd(II)-catalyzed allylic C—H oxidation from terminal olefin precursors. Critical to the success of this goal was the development and utilization of a novel chiral aryl sulfoxide-oxazoline (ArSOX) ligand. The allylic C—H oxidation reaction proceeds with the broadest scope and highest levels asymmetric induction reported to date (avg. 92% ee, 13 examples ≥90% ee). Additionally, C(sp3)-N fragment coupling reaction between abundant terminal olefins and N-triflyl protected aliphatic and aromatic amines via Pd(II)/sulfoxide (SOX) catalyzed intermolecular allylic C—H amination is disclosed. A range of 52 allylic amines are furnished in good yields (avg. 76%) and excellent regio- and stereoselectivity (avg. >20:1 linear:branched, >20:1 E:Z). For the first time, a variety of singly activated aromatic and aliphatic nitrogen nucleophiles, including ones with stereochemical elements, can be used in fragment coupling stiochiometries for intermolecular C—H amination reactions.

- 1-(1)-dehydroabietylimidazolium salts as enantiomer discriminators for NMR spectroscopy
-
Nine new (+)-dehydroabietylimidazolium salts were synthesised and studied as chiral solvating agents for several different racemic aromatic and non-aromatic carboxylate salts. These cationic chiral solvating agents resolve racemic ionic analytes better than non-ionic ones. Bis(dehydroabietylimidazolium) bis(trifluoromethanesulfonimide) gave the best discrimination for the enantiomers of carboxylate salts. Its resolution behaviour was studied by an NMR titration experiment, which indicated 1 : 1 complexation with the racemic analyte. The dehydroabietylimidazolium salts were also useful in enantiomeric excess (ee) determinations, and for the recognition of chirality of racemic aromatic and nonaromatic a-substituted carboxylic acids.

- Reductive deprotection of allyl, benzyl and sulfonyl substituted alcohols, amines and amides using a naphthalene-catalysed lithiation
-
The reaction of different protected alcohols, amines and amides with lithium and a catalytic amount of naphthalene (4 mol %) in THF at low temperature leads to their deprotection under very mild reaction conditions, the process being in many cases chemoselective.

- Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenolysis of N-Benzyl Protecting Groups
-
The catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis of a number of N-benzyl compounds has been examined.Of the three hydrogen donors studied, ammonium formate and hydrazine hydrate were more effective than sodium hypophosphite.In general, debenzylation of secondary and tertiary benzylamines could be readily accomplished by refluxing the substrate with an excess of the hydrogen donor in alcoholic solvents for a few hours using catalytic amounts of 10percent palladium on carbon.The two N-benzyl heteroaromatic amines studies were stable to the above conditions.

- Dehydroabietylammonium salts of 6-oxo-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid
-
6-Oxo-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid has been resolved via direct crystallization of pure S-6-oxo-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid dehydroabietylammonium salt from a solvent system consisting of dimethylformamide, cyclohexane and acetone. The S-enantiomer is a required component for making certain tripeptides related to thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) which are central nervous system stimulants.
