Nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides with allylic zirconium reagents generated in situ from zirconocene(alkene) complexes

Facile Synthesis of Chiral Arylamines, Alkylamines and Amides by Enantioselective NiH-Catalyzed Hydroamination

Regio- and enantioselective hydroarylamination, hydroalkylamination and hydroamidation of styrenes have been developed by NiH catalysis with a simple bioxazoline ligand under mild conditions. A wide range of enantioenriched benzylic arylamines, alkylamines and amides can be easily accessed by nitroarenes, hydroxylamines and dioxazolones, respectively as amination reagents. The chiral induction in these reactions is proposed to proceed through an enantiodifferentiating syn-hydronickellation step.

Highly Selective and Potent Human β-Secretase 2 (BACE2) Inhibitors against Type 2 Diabetes: Design, Synthesis, X-ray Structure and Structure–Activity Relationship Studies

Herein we present the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of potent and highly selective β-secretase 2 (memapsin 1, beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 2, or BACE 2) inhibitors. BACE2 has been recognized as an exciting new target for type 2 diabetes. The X-ray structure of BACE1 bound to inhibitor 2 a {N3-[(1S,2R)-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-[[(1S,2S)-2-hydroxy-1-(isobutylcarbamoyl)propyl]amino]propyl]-5-[methyl(methylsulfonyl)amino]-N1-[(1R)-1-phenylpropyl]benzene-1,3-dicarboxamide} containing a hydroxyethylamine isostere was determined. Based on this structure, a computational docking study was performed which led to inhibitor 2 a-bound BACE2 models. These were used to optimize the potency and selectivity of inhibitors. A systematic structure–activity relationship study led to the identification of determinants of the inhibitors’ potency and selectivity toward the BACE2 enzyme. Inhibitors 2 d [N3-[(1S,2R)-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-[[(1S,2S)-2-hydroxy-1-(isobutylcarbamoyl)pentyl]amino]propyl]-N1-methyl-N1-[(1R)-1-phenylpropyl]benzene-1,3-dicarboxamide; Ki=0.031 nm, selectivity over BACE1: ≈174 000-fold] and 3 l [N1-((2S,3R)-3-hydroxy-1-phenyl-4-((3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)amino)butan-2-yl)-N3,5-dimethyl-N3-((R)-1-phenylethyl)isophthalamide; Ki=1.6 nm, selectivity over BACE1: >500-fold] displayed outstanding potency and selectivity. Inhibitor 3 l is nonpeptide in nature and may pave the way to the development of a new class of potent and selective BACE2 inhibitors with clinical potential.

Preferential Photoreaction in a Porous Crystal, Metal-Macrocycle Framework: PdII-Mediated Olefin Migration over [2+2] Cycloaddition

A nanosized confined space with well-defined functional surfaces has great potential to control the efficiency and selectivity of catalytic reactions. Herein we report that a 1,6-diene, which normally forms an intramolecular [2+2] cycloadduct under photoirradiation, preferentially undergoes a photoinduced olefin migration in a porous crystal, metal-macrocycle framework (MMF), and alternatively [2+2] cycloaddition is completely inhibited in the confined space. A plausible reaction mechanism for olefin migration triggered by the photoinduced dissociation of the Pd-Cl bond is suggested based on UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, single-crystal XRD, and MS-CASPT2 calculation. The substrate scope of the photoinduced olefin migration in MMF was also examined using substituted allylbenzene derivatives.

Cobalt-Catalyzed Allylic C(sp3)-H Carboxylation with CO2

Catalytic carboxylation of the allylic C(sp3)-H bond of terminal alkenes with CO2 was developed with the aid of a Co/Xantphos complex. A wide range of allylarenes and 1,4-dienes were successfully transformed into the linear styrylacetic acid and hexa-3,5-dienoic acid derivatives in moderate to high yields, with excellent regioselectivity. The carboxylation showed remarkable functional group tolerability, so that selective addition to CO2 occurred in the presence of other carbonyl groups such as amide, ester, and ketone. Since styrylacetic acid derivatives can be readily converted into optically active γ-butyrolactones through Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation, this allylic C(sp3)-H carboxylation showcases a facile synthesis of γ-butyrolactones from simple allylarenes via short steps.

Visible-light-mediated anti-regioselective nitrone 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction and synthesis of bisindolylmethanes

The development of photoredox reactions of 1, 3- dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones with alkenes is reported. It offers an efficient synthetic method to obtain isoxazolidine derivatives under mild conditions in synthetically useful yields. The nitrones are cyclized with oxidizable styrenes and aliphatic alkenes via a polar radical crossover cycloaddition reaction through photocatalytic reaction without additives. In addition, bis(indole)methanes can also be prepared through this method.

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of potassium alkenyltrifluoroborates with organic halides in aqueous media

Potassium vinyl and alkenyltrifluoroborates are cross-coupled with aryl and heteroaryl bromides using 1 mol % Pd loading of 4-hydroxyacetophenone oxime derived palladacycle or Pd(OAc)2 as precatalysts, K 2CO3 as base, and TBAB as additive and water reflux under conventional or microwave heating to afford styrenes, stilbenoids, and alkenylbenzenes. These borates can be cross-coupled diastereoselectively with allyl and benzyl chlorides using KOH as base in acetone-water (3:2) at 50°C and 0.1 mol % Pd loading, giving the corresponding 1,4-dienes and allylarenes, respectively. These simple phosphine-free reaction conditions allow the palladium recycling from the aqueous phase during up to five runs by extractive separation of the products, which contain 58-105 ppm of Pd.
