An iron-catalyzed deconstruction/hydrogenation reaction of alcohols through C-C bond cleavage is developed through photocatalysis, to produce ketones or aldehydes as the products. Tertiary, secondary, and primary alcohols bearing a wide range of substituents are suitable substrates. Complex natural alcohols can also perform the transformation selectively. A investigation of the mechanism reveals a procedure that involves chlorine radical improved O-H homolysis, with the assistance of 2,4,6-collidine.

We report a general protocol for the light-driven isomerization of cyclic aliphatic alcohols to linear carbonyl compounds. These reactions proceed via proton-coupled electron-transfer activation of alcohol O-H bonds followed by subsequent C-C β-scission of the resulting alkoxy radical intermediates. In many cases, these redox-neutral isomerizations proceed in opposition to a significant energetic gradient, yielding products that are less thermodynamically stable than the starting materials. A mechanism is presented to rationalize this out-of-equilibrium behavior that may serve as a model for the design of other contrathermodynamic transformations driven by excited-state redox events.

Background: Antagonists to the H3 receptor are considered to be potential drugs for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, attention deficit-hyperactive disorder, memory and learning deficits, and epilepsy. The initial development of potent H3 receptor antagonists focused on extensive modification of the natural ligand histamine. However, it has appeared that imidazole-containing ligands are associated with inhibition of cytochrome P450 enzymes, caused by imidazole nitrogen complexation to heme iron in the active site of the enzyme. For these reasons, the development of potent non-imidazole H3 receptor antagonists was eagerly awaited. Objective: Previously, we reported the synthesis and pharmacological in vitro characterization of series of potent histamine H3-receptor non-imidazole antagonists belonging to the class of substituted 2-thiazol-4-n-propylpiperazines. A lead compound 1 of this family was a derivative carrying the ethylaminomethylpropyl chain. Methods: With the aim of increasing lipophilicity, that will help the ligands to cross the blood-brain barrier, we synthesized a series of new 2-thiazol-4-n-propylpiperazines where the ethylaminomethylpropyl moiety was replaced by a p-substituted-, an unsubstituted benzene ring, and ω-phenylalkyl substituent at positions 4 and 5 of thiazole ring, respectively. All compounds were tested for H3 antagonistic effects in vitro using the electrically contracting guinea pig jejunum. Results: The most active compounds of presented series 3d, 3e, and 3j showed lower affinity than the lead compound 1 and additionally, derivatives 3d and 3j possessed weak, competitive H1-antagonistic activity. This is in contrast to the lead compound 1 that has no affinity at H1 receptor. Conclusion: We can conclude that a side chain in the 2-thiazol-4-n-propylpiperazine scaffold should contain a basic center and should be present at a favorable position 5 of thiazole ring.
