Esterification in an aqueous micellar medium is catalyzed by a commercially available lipase in the absence of any co-factors. The presence of only 2 wt% designer surfactant, TPGS-750-M, assists in a 100% selective enzymatic process in which only primary alcohols participate (in a 1?:?1 ratio with carboxylic acid). An unexpected finding is also disclosed where the simple additive, PhCF3 (1 equiv. vs. substrate), appears to significantly extend the scope of usable acid/alcohol combinations. Taken together, several chemo- and bio-catalyzed 1-pot, multi-step reactions can now be performed in water.

We have developed a method for the esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols using amphipathic, monolithic-resin bearing sulfonic acid moieties as cation exchange functions (monolith-SO3H). Monolith-SO3H efficiently catalyzed the esterification of aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids with various primary and secondary alcohols (1.55.0 equiv) in toluene at 6080 °C without the need to remove water generated during the reaction. The amphipathic property of monolith-SO3H facilitates dehydration due to its capacity for water absorption. This reaction was also applicable to thioesterification, wherein the corresponding thioesters were obtained in excellent yield using only 2.0 equiv of thiol in toluene, although heating at 120 °C was required. Moreover, monolith-SO3H was separable from the reaction mixtures by simple filtration and reused for at least five runs without decreasing the catalytic activity.

A new triazinedione-based reagent, (N,N′-dialkyl)triazinedione-4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (ATD-DMAP) was developed for the operationally simple dehydrative condensation of carboxylic acids. This reagent comprises an ATD core and DMAP as the leaving group, which is liberated into the reaction system to accelerate acyl transfer reactions. Upon adding ATD-DMAP to a mixture of carboxylic acids and alcohols in the presence of an amine base, the corresponding esters were formed rapidly at room temperature. Moreover, dehydrative condensation between carboxylic acids and amines using ATD-DMAP proceeded in high yield.
Manganese-catalyzed homogeneous hydrogenation of ketones and conjugate reduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives: A chemoselective, robust, and phosphine-free in situ-protocol
Topf, Christoph,Vielhaber, Thomas
, (2021/07/10)
We communicate a user-friendly and glove-box-free catalytic protocol for the manganese-catalyzed hydrogenation of ketones and conjugated C[dbnd]C[sbnd]bonds of esters and nitriles. The respective catalyst is readily assembled in situ from the privileged [Mn(CO)5Br] precursor and cheap 2-picolylamine. The catalytic transformations were performed in the presence of t-BuOK whereby the corresponding hydrogenation products were obtained in good to excellent yields. The described system offers a brisk and atom-efficient access to both secondary alcohols and saturated esters avoiding the use of oxygen-sensitive and expensive phosphine-based ligands.

The invention discloses a method for selectively reducing carbon-carbon double bonds in α and β - unsaturated carbonyl compounds, which comprises the following steps of adding α, β - unsaturated carbonyl compounds shown in formula (I) in an electrolysis system and reducing α and β - unsaturated carbonyl compounds with carbonyl-conjugated carbon-carbon double bonds through an electrochemical cathodic reduction reaction. Compared with the reported method, the method disclosed by the invention does not use a metal catalyst and an external oxidant; and the reaction raw material and the electrolyte are low in price, nontoxic and tasteless, simple and convenient in post-treatment.

We have developed new triazine-based esterifying reagents comprising pyridines that can act as a nucleophilic catalyst. 1-(4,6-Dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-3,5-lutidinium chloride (DMT-3,5-LUT) was found to exhibit a superior reactivity for the dehydrating condensation reaction between carboxylic acids and alcohols. The reaction of DMT-3,5-LUT with carboxylic acids produces intermediacy of acyloxytriazines, which is known to exhibit moderate reactivity toward alcohols, with concomitant liberation of 3,5-lutidine. The subsequent chemical transformation of the acyloxytriazines and alcohols into esters can be accelerated by the action of 3,5-lutidine as a nucleophilic catalyst. The detailed reaction mechanism revealed by a time-course analysis of the reactions is also discussed.

An α-ketoacid could be converted into a reactive acylating agent by treatment with hypervalent iodine(III) species, and in so doing, we discovered a novel decarboxylative acylation of alcohols that affords a variety of esters in excellent yields. The esterification has been applied to a sterol bearing a free carboxylic acid and shows unique chemoselectivity. The procedure is racemization-free and operates under mild conditions.

An efficient, broadly applicable, operationally simple, and divergent process for the transformation of imides into a range of carboxylic acid derivatives under mild conditions is reported. By simply using catalytic amounts of ytterbium(III) triflate as a Lewis acid promoter in the presence of alcohols, water, amines, or N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine, a broad range of imides is smoothly and readily converted to the corresponding esters, carboxylic acids, amides, and Weinreb amides in good yields. This method notably enables an easy cleavage of oxazolidinone-based auxiliaries.

Amyloid-β aggregation inhibitors are expected to be therapeutic or prophylactic agents for Alzheimer's disease. Rosmarinic acid, which is one of the main aggregation inhibitors derived from Lamiaceae, was employed as a lead compound and its 25 derivatives were synthesized. In this study, the structure–activity relations of rosmarinic acid derivatives for the amyloid-β aggregation inhibitory effect (MSHTS assay), antioxidant properties, and xanthine oxidase inhibition were evaluated. Among the tested compounds, compounds 16d and 19 were found to the most potent amyloid aggregation inhibitors. The SAR revealed that the necessity of the presence of the phenolic hydroxyl on one side of the molecule as well as the lipophilicity of the entire molecule. The importance of these structural properties was also supported by docking simulations.
