- α-Oxocarboxylic Acids as Three-Carbon Insertion Units for Palladium-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Cascade Synthesis of Diverse Fused Heteropolycycles
-
A novel palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative cascade cyclization for the assembly of diverse fused heteropolycycles by employing α-oxocarboxylic acids as three-carbon insertion units is reported. This protocol enables the synthesis of isoquinolinedione- and indolo[2,1-a]isoquinolinone-fused benzocycloheptanones in moderate to good yields by the use of different aryl iodides, including alkene-tethered 2-iodobenzamides and 2-(2-iodophenyl)-1H-indoles. Notably, the approach achieves simultaneous construction of both six- and seven-membered rings via sequential intramolecular carbopalladation, C-H activation, and decarboxylation.

- Atmosphere-Controlled Palladium-Catalyzed Divergent Decarboxylative Cyclization of 2-Iodobiphenyls and α-Oxocarboxylic Acids
-
A novel palladium-catalyzed divergent decarboxylative cyclization of 2-iodobiphenyls and α-oxocarboxylic acids utilizing the atmosphere as a controlled switch is reported. Under the protection of a nitrogen atmosphere, tribenzotropones are synthesized by a [4 + 3] decarboxylative cyclization. Employing a palladium/O2 system enables a [4 + 2] decarboxylative cyclization to assemble triphenylenes. Notably, preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that the formation of triphenylenes involves a double decarboxylation.

- The intramolecular reaction of acetophenoneN-tosylhydrazone and vinyl: Br?nsted acid-promoted cationic cyclization toward polysubstituted indenes
-
In the presence of TsNHNH2, a Br?nsted acid-promoted intramolecular cyclization ofo-(1-arylvinyl) acetophenone derivatives was developed, leading to polysubstituted indenes with complexity and diversity in moderate to excellent yields. In sharp contrast with either the radical or carbene involved cyclization of aldehydicN-tosylhydrazone with vinyl, a cationic cyclization pathway was involved, whereN-tosylhydrazone served as an electrophile and alkylation reagent during this transformation.

- Divergent Access to Benzocycles through Copper-Catalyzed Borylative Cyclizations
-
A copper-catalyzed chemodivergent approach to five- and six-membered benzocycles from dienyl arenes tethered with a ketone has been developed. Through proper choice of coordinating ligands and catalytic conditions, copper-catalyzed borylative cyclization of a single dienyl arene can be diverted to two different pathways, leading to indanols and dihydronaphthalenols with high stereoselectivity. The chiral bidentate bisphosphine ligand (S,S)-Ph-BPE was optimal for asymmetric copper-allyl addition to a tethered ketone via a boat-like transition state, whereas NHC ligands led to boro-allyl addition producing indanols with high diastereoselectivity. (Figure presented.).

- Asymmetric Synthesis and Application of Chiral Spirosilabiindanes
-
Reported here is the development of a class of chiral spirosilabiindane scaffolds by Rh-catalyzed asymmetric double hydrosilation, for the first time. Enantiopure SPSiOL (spirosilabiindane diol), a new type of chiral building block for the preparation of various chiral ligands and catalysts, was readily prepared on greater than 10 gram scale using this protocol. The potential of this new spirosilabiindane scaffold in asymmetric catalysis was preliminarily demonstrated by development of the corresponding monodentate phosphoramidite ligands (SPSiPhos), which were used in both a Rh-catalyzed hydrogenation and a Pd-catalyzed intramolecular carboamination.

- PdII-Catalyzed Oxidative Tandem aza-Wacker/Heck Cyclization for the Construction of Fused 5,6-Bicyclic N,O-Heterocycles
-
A PdII-catalyzed oxidative tandem cyclization was developed for the construction of fused 5,6-bicyclic N, O-heterocycles. This reaction was enabled by the combined use of a 3-methylpyridine ligand and pentafluorobenzoic acid additive. A range of heterocyclic products with different substituents could be prepared in moderate to good yields via this methodology. Several transformations, including a scaled-up preparation of product 2 a, were also carried out showing the good applicability of our methodology.

- Ring-substituted 1,2-dialkylated 1,2-bis(hydroxyphenyl)ethanes. 3. Synthesis, estrogen receptor binding affinity, and evaluation of antiestrogenic and mammary tumor inhibiting activity of 2,2'-disubstituted butestrols and 6,6'-disubstituted metabutestrols
-
The syntheses of symmetrically 2,2'-disubstituted butestrols [meso-2,3-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)butanes] and of 6,6'-disubstituted metabutestrols [meso-2,3-bis(3-hydroxyphenyl)butanes] are described [2,2'-substituents: H (1), OH (2), F (3), Cl (4), Br (5), CH3 (6), and C2H5 (7); 6,6'-substituents: H (8), OH (9), Cl (10), and CH3 (11)]. Compounds 1-11 were obtained by reductive coupling of the corresponding 1-phenylethanols with TiCl3/LiAlH4 and separation of the meso diastereomers. The binding affinity of the test compounds to the calf uterine estrogen receptor was measured relative to that of [3H]estradiol by a competitive binding assay. With the exception of 9, all other compounds showed remarkably high relative binding affinity (RBA) values between 1.0 and 29% that of estradiol. Compounds 3 and 6 (RBA values: 15 and 29), as well as 10 and 11 (1.7 and 5.2), exceeded those of the corresponding unsubstituted compounds 1 and 8 (12 and 1.0). The compounds exhibited strong (3, 4, 6, and 7), moderate (1, 2, and 10), weak (11), or no (8) estrogenic activity in the uterine weight test of the immature mouse. Compounds 1, 2, 8, 10 and 11 showed antiestrogenic activity inhibiting the estrone-stimulated uterine growth (25-35% inhibition). Compound 11 led to a significant inhibition of the tumor growth when tested on the 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene induced, hormone-dependent mammary carcinoma of the Sprague-Dawley rat.
