Silica-supported orthophosphoric acid (OPA/SiO2): preparation, characterization, and evaluation as green reusable catalyst for pinacolic rearrangement
Billamboz, Muriel,Banaszak, Estelle
, p. 1029 - 1040 (2019)
In this paper, we report an easy-to-prepare, cost-effective, efficient, and reusable silica-supported orthophosphoric acid (OPA) catalyst for pinacolic rearrangement. The surface properties of this catalyst were successfully characterized with the help of 31P NMR, TGA, DSC, FT-IR, titration, and microscopy. OPA, hydrogen bonded on the surface, is actually the active species and the reaction seems to occur in the liquid phase embedded in the silica support. As a consequence, the extracting solvent should be chosen with cautious to guarantee the recyclability of the catalyst. As example, pinacol rearrangement reactions were successfully realized with this catalyst and OPA/SiO2 proved to be as efficient as homogeneous orthophosphoric acid to promote the reaction of pinacol derivatives. When using dichloromethane as extracting solvent, OPA/SiO2 can be reuse up to ten times without a significant loss of activity. After ten runs, no physical damage of the catalyst has been observed by microscopy proving its suitability for such application.

Leishmaniasis is endemic in 98 countries and territories worldwide. The therapies available for leishmaniasis have serious side effects, thus prompting the search for new therapies. The present study investigated the antileishmanial activities of 2,3-diaryl-substituted quinoxaline derivatives against Leishmania amazonensis. The antiproliferative activities of 6,7-dichloro-2,3-diphenylquinoxaline (LSPN329) and 2,3-di-(4-methoxyphenyl)-quinoxaline (LSPN331) against promastigotes and intracellular amastigotes were assessed, and the cytotoxicities of LSPN329 and LSPN331 were determined. Morphological and ultrastructural alterations were examined by electron microscopy, and biochemical alterations, reflected by the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), mitochondrial superoxide anion (O2.-) concentration, the intracellular ATP concentration, cell volume, the level of phosphatidylserine exposure on the cell membrane, cell membrane integrity, and lipid inclusions, were evaluated. In vivo antileishmanial activity was evaluated in a murine cutaneous leishmaniasis model. Compounds LSPN329 and LSPN331 showed significant selectivity for promastigotes and intracellular amastigotes and low cytotoxicity. In promastigotes, ultrastructural alterations were observed, including an increase in lipid inclusions, concentric membranes, and intense mitochondrial swelling, which were associated with hyperpolarization of ΔΨm, an increase in the O2.- concentration, decreased intracellular ATP levels, and a decrease in cell volume. Phosphatidylserine exposure and DNA fragmentation were not observed. The cellular membrane remained intact after treatment. Thus, the multifactorial response that was responsible for the cellular collapse of promastigotes was based on intense mitochondrial alterations. BALB/c mice treated with LSPN329 or LSPN331 showed a significant decrease in lesion thickness in the infected footpad. Therefore, the antileishmanial activity and mitochondrial mechanism of action of LSPN329 and LSPN331 and the decrease in lesion thickness in vivo brought about by LSPN329 and LSPN331 make them potential candidates for new drug development for the treatment of leishmaniasis.
An Oxidant- And Catalyst-Free Synthesis of Dibenzo[ a, c ]carbazoles via UV Light Irradiation of 2,3-Diphenyl-1 H -indoles

An efficient methodology for the synthesis of dibenzo[a,c]- carbazoles via annulation of 2,3-diphenyl-1H-indoles in EtOH under UV light irradiation (λO = 365 nm) along with hydrogen evolution is described. This method exhibits the advantages of mild reaction conditions, no requirement of any oxidants and catalysts, and release of hydrogen as the only byproduct. Notably, the mechanism investigation confirms that the trans-4b,8a-dihydro-9H-dibenzo[a,c]carbazole intermediate could convert into cis-4b,8a-dihydro-9H-dibenzo[a,c]carbazole, which relies on the nitrogen atom of the indole ring. This is followed by intramolecular dehydrogenation which yields the dibenzo[a,c]carbazoles. 2021. Thieme. All rights reserved.

Azidation of alkenes is an efficient protocol to synthesize organic azides which are important structural motifs in organic synthesis. Enantioselective radical azidation, as a useful strategy to install a C-N3 bond, remains challenging due to the inherently instability and unique structure of radicals. Here, we disclose an efficient enantioselective radical carboazidation and diazidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones and amides catalyzed by chiral N,N′-dioxide/Fe(OTf)2 complexes. An array of substituted alkenes was transformed to the corresponding α-azido carbonyl derivatives in good to excellent enantioselectivities, benefiting the preparation of chiral α-amino ketones, vicinal amino alcohols, and vicinal diamines. Control experiments and mechanistic studies proved the radical pathway in the reaction process. The DFT calculations showed that the azido transferred to the radical intermediate via an intramolecular five-membered transition state with the internal nitrogen of the Fe-N3 species.

A series of (E)-1,2-diarylethylidenehydrazine carboximidamides 2a–j were synthesized and characterized by NOESY experiment as anticonvulsant agents and their antiseizure activity was evaluated by intracerebroventricular administration of compounds. Most of the compounds had significant protection against tonic-clonic seizures and 2a was found to be as equipotent as carbamazepine in seizures control. In order to find their anticonvulsant mechanism of action, 2a was subjected to further electrophysiological studies using patch-clamp technique. The results confirmed that this compound is neither a voltage-gated sodium channel blocker nor a NMDA/AMPA antagonist. Although 2a did not show any direct GABA agonistic activity, it could decrease EPSP and increase IPSP frequency without any change in amplitude. Finally, the results indicated most likely a presynaptic GABA-mediated mechanism of 2a for its antiseizure activity such as inhibition of the GABA-T which was validated by molecular docking.
Diazaphosphinyl radical-catalyzed deoxygenation of α-carboxy ketones: A new protocol for chemo-selective C-O bond scission: Via mechanism regulation

C-O bond cleavage is often a key process in defunctionalization of organic compounds as well as in degradation of natural polymers. However, it seldom occurs regioselectively for different types of C-O bonds under metal-free mild conditions. Here we report a facile chemo-selective cleavage of the α-C-O bonds in α-carboxy ketones by commercially available pinacolborane under the catalysis of diazaphosphinane based on a mechanism switch strategy. This new reaction features high efficiency, low cost and good group-tolerance, and is also amenable to catalytic deprotection of desyl-protected carboxylic acids and amino acids. Mechanistic studies indicated an electron-transfer-initiated radical process, underlining two crucial steps: (1) the initiator azodiisobutyronitrile switches originally hydridic reduction to kinetically more accessible electron reduction; and (2) the catalytic phosphorus species upconverts weakly reducing pinacolborane into strongly reducing diazaphosphinane.

Reported herein is a palladium-catalyzed secondary benzylic imidoylative Negishi reaction leveraging the sterically bulky aromatic isocyanides as the imine source. This method allows the facile access of alkyl-, (hetero)aryl-, and alkynylzinc reagents to afford various α-substituted phenylacetone products under mild acidic hydrolysis, which are ubiquitous motifs in many pharmaceuticals and biologically active compounds. The diastereoselective reduction of imine can be accomplished to provide the expedient conversion of secondary benzylic halide into α-substituted phenethylamine derivatives with high atom economy.

As a key element in the construction of complex organic scaffolds, the formation of C?C bonds remains a challenge in the field of synthetic organic chemistry. Recent advancements in single-electron chemistry have enabled new methods for the formation of various C?C bonds. Disclosed herein is the development of a novel single-electron reduction of acyl azoliums for the formation of ketones from carboxylic acids. Facile construction of the acyl azolium in situ followed by a radical–radical coupling was made possible merging N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and photoredox catalysis. The utility of this protocol in synthesis was showcased in the late-stage functionalization of a variety of pharmaceutical compounds. Preliminary investigations using chiral NHCs demonstrate that enantioselectivity can be achieved, showcasing the advantages of this protocol over alternative methodologies.
