Heck Diversification of Indole-Based Substrates under Aqueous Conditions: From Indoles to Unprotected Halo-tryptophans and Halo-tryptophans in Natural Product Derivatives

The blending of synthetic chemistry with biosynthetic processes provides a powerful approach to synthesis. Biosynthetic halogenation and synthetic cross-coupling have great potential to be used together, for small molecule generation, access to natural product analogues and as a tool for chemical biology. However, to enable enhanced generality of this approach, further synthetic tools are needed. Though considerable research has been invested in the diversification of phenylalanine and tyrosine, functionalisation of tryptophans thorough cross-coupling has been largely neglected. Tryptophan is a key residue in many biologically active natural products and peptides; in proteins it is key to fluorescence and dominates protein folding. To this end, we have explored the Heck cross-coupling of halo-indoles and halo-tryptophans in water, showing broad reaction scope. We have demonstrated the ability to use this methodology in the functionalisation of a brominated antibiotic (bromo-pacidamycin), as well as a marine sponge metabolite, barettin.

Tandem heck/decarboxylation/heck strategy: Protecting-group-free synthesis of symmetric and unsymmetric hydroxylated stilbenoids

Ride the (micro)wave: The title strategy has been developed for the synthesis of various symmetric or unsymmetric hydroxylated stilbenoids utilizing 4-halophenols and acrylic acid as coupling partners (see scheme; DMA=N,N-dimethylacetamide, MW=microwave). Protecting groups are not necessary and a single palladium catalyst is used. Copyright
