Ionic liquids such as 1-butyl-3-methyl-1H-imidazolium 4- methylbenzenesulfonate (BmimOTs) and its 1-ethyl analogue EmimOTs are novel effective and recyclable media for acid-catalyzed coupling reaction, of aromatic alkynes with aldehydes affording (E)-enones (Scheme 1, Table) with simple recovery and easy workup due to the absence of volatile organic solvents. This transformation avoids the use of moisture-sensitive and heavy-metal Lewis acids.

We report herein the facile and practical construction of α,β-unsaturated ketones via rhodium-catalyzed direct acylation of vinylsilanes with readily available and abundant carboxylic acids. This protocol features access to a diverse array of synthetically useful functionalities with moderate to excellent yields. More importantly, the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals was also realized with synthetically useful yield.

A ligand-free palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of vinyl iodides with arylboronic acids, permitting the synthesis of chalcones and α-branched enones, has been established. This reaction proceeds smoothly at ambient pressure and temperature, and works well even with a substoichiometric amount of base. Importantly, this mild, efficient, and operationally simple protocol is suitable for the late-stage functionalization of an epiandrosterone-derived complex molecule.

GPR52 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that has been recently implicated as a potential drug target of Huntington's disease (HD), an incurable monogenic neurodegenerative disorder. In this research, we found that striatal knockdown of GPR52 reduces mHTT levels in adult HdhQ140 mice, validating GPR52 as an HD target. In addition, we discovered a highly potent and specific GPR52 antagonist Comp-43 with an IC50 value of 0.63 μM by a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study. Further studies showed that Comp-43 reduces mHTT levels by targeting GPR52 and promotes survival of mouse primary striatal neurons. Moreover, in vivo study showed that Comp-43 not only reduces mHTT levels but also rescues HD-related phenotypes in HdhQ140 mice. Taken together, our study confirms that inhibition of GPR52 is a promising strategy for HD therapy, and the GPR52 antagonist Comp-43 might serve as a lead compound for further investigation.
Remote Functionalization of α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyls by Multimetallic Sequential Catalysis

, p. 16983 - 16990 (2019/10/28)
The remote functionalization of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls by an array of multimetallic sequential catalytic systems is described. The reactions are triggered by hydrometalation using [Pd-H] or [Ru-H] isomerization catalysts and driven by the formation of thermodynamically more stable 1,2-vinyl arenes. The Pd-catalyzed deconjugative isomerization was combined with a Cu-catalyzed β-borylation of the transiently generated styrenyl derivatives to deliver a range of products that would not be accessible with the use of a single catalyst. [Pd/Cu] catalytic systems were also identified for the highly enantioselective α-hydroboration and α-hydroamination of the styrenyl intermediates. Difunctionalization simultaneously at the benzylic and homobenzylic positions was achieved by combining the isomerization process with Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation (SAD) using [Pd/Os] or [Ru/Os] couples. Starting from a simple α,β-unsaturated ester, an isomerization/dihydroxylation/lactonization sequence gave access to a naturally occurring γ-butyrolactone in good yield, with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity.
Organocatalytic Enantioselective Selenosulfonylation of a C-C Double Bond to Form Two Stereogenic Centers in an Aqueous Medium
Chen, Zhili,Hu, Fangli,Huang, Shengli,Zhao, Zhengxing,Mao, Hui,Qin, Wenling
, p. 8100 - 8111 (2019/06/17)
Organocatalytic selenosulfonylation of the C-C double bond of α,β-unsaturated ketones to construct two contiguous stereogenic centers in an aqueous medium was described. A series of α-selenyl and β-sulfonyl ketones with various functional groups were synthesized in good yields and enantioselectivities with saturated NaCl solution as the solvent. In addition, this protocol had been successfully scaled up to a decagram scale via a simple workup procedure.
Bifunctional Thiourea-Catalyzed Stereoablative Retro-Sulfa-Michael Reaction: Concise and Diastereoselective Access to Chiral 2,4-Diarylthietanes
Bacsó, András,Szigeti, Mariann,Varga, Szilárd,Soós, Tibor
, p. 429 - 439 (2016/12/24)
Owing to the chiral recognition capacity of bifunctional thioureas, a stereoablative retro-sulfa-Michael reaction has been developed. Utilization of a biphasic system enabled us to render the process catalytic. The usefulness of this methodology was further illustrated by the diastereoselective synthesis of all possible stereoisomers of 2,4-diarylthiethanes.

2-benzothiazolyl propargyl sulfides: Versatile precursors for enantiopure allenes, E-α,β-unsaturated ketones and Z-sulfonylalkenes
Kapeller, Dagmar C.,Kocienski, Philip J.
, p. 3811 - 3821 (2011/01/12)
A novel, stereospecific route to allenes is described. The approach proceeds via a retro-ene reaction, initiated by lithium aluminium hydride mediated cleavage of benzothiazole from the respective (chiral) 2-benzothiazolyl propargyl sulfone precursors. As
One-pot, fluoride-promoted wittig reaction
Fumagalli, Tiziano,Sello, Guido,Orsini, Fulvia
experimental part, p. 2178 - 2195 (2009/12/01)
A one-pot, fluoride-promoted Wittig reaction was developed. The reactions of ethyl -bromoacetate with aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic aldehydes in the presence of tri-n-butylphosphine and tetrabutylammonium fluoride produced ,-unsaturated esters in good to excellent yields and E-stereoselectivity. Under the same conditions, reactions of ethyl -bromopropionate, -bromo acetonitrile, and -bromoacetophenone with aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of tri-n-butylphosphine and tetrabutylammonium fluoride produced the expected ,-unsaturated derivatives in good E-stereoselectivity. The protocol was extended to semistabilized ylides and applied to the synthesis of some combretastatin analogs.
