Trifluoroethanol as a Unique Additive for the Chemoselective Electrooxidation of Enamines to Access Unsymmetrically Substituted NH-Pyrroles

An electrochemical method for the synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted NH-pyrroles is described. The synthetic strategy comprises a challenging heterocoupling between two structurally diverse enamines via sequential chemoselective oxidation, addition,

Regioselective Synthesis of N2-Aryl 1,2,3-Triazoles via Electro-oxidative Coupling of Enamines and Aryldiazonium Salts

An efficient synthetic route for the construction of N2-aryl 1,2,3-triazoles is reported via sequential C-N bond formation and electro-oxidative N-N coupling under metal-free conditions. Readily accessible 2-aminoacrylates and aryldiazonium salts were used as starting materials, and the developed protocol displays excellent functional group tolerance, allowing an extensive range of substrate scope up to 91% isolated yield. Various mechanistic studies, along with the isolation of an intermediate adduct, refer to successive ionic and radical reaction sequences.

Tetrasubstituted 1,3-Enynes by Gold-Catalyzed Direct C(sp2)-H Alkynylation of Acceptor-Substituted Enamines

A gold-catalyzed synthesis of tetrasubstituted 1,3-enynes from hypervalent iodine(III) reagents and activated alkenes is reported. This reaction involves an in situ formed alkynyl Au(III) species and a subsequent direct C(sp2)-H functionalization of alkenes, offering 26 enynes in 62-92% yield with excellent functional group tolerance.

Cu-Mediated Expeditious Annulation of Alkyl 3-Aminoacrylates with Aryldiazonium Salts: Access to Alkyl N2-Aryl 1,2,3-Triazole-carboxylates for Druglike Molecular Synthesis

Alkyl N-aryl 1,2,3-triazole-carboxylates are important molecules or intermediates in medicinal chemistry, but the synthesis of N2-aryl counterparts remains elusive. Herein, we describe a Cu-mediated annulation reaction of alkyl 3-aminoacrylates with aryldiazonium salts, both of which are readily available substrates. Furthermore, alkyl 2-aminoacrylates are also viable substrates. Diverse alkyl N2-aryl 1,2,3-triazole-carboxylates and their analogues can be rapidly prepared under mild conditions. Especially, this protocol allows one to access several druglike variants of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and celecoxib.

Synthesis of Thiazoles and Isothiazoles via Three-Component Reaction of Enaminoesters, Sulfur, and Bromodifluoroacetamides/Esters

A three-component strategy for the synthesis of thiazoles and isothiazoles has been developed by employing enaminoesters, fluorodibromoiamides/ester, and sulfur. The thiazoles and isothiazoles were formed via two C-F bond cleavages along with the formation of new C-S, C-N, and N-S bonds. The strategy provides high selectivity for the synthesis of thiazoles/isothiazoles, which have vital applications in drug discovery and development.

Divergent Synthesis of Multisubstituted Unsymmetric Pyrroles and Pyrrolin-4-ones from Enamino Esters via Copper-Catalyzed Aerobic Dimerization

A facile synthetic method to access multisubstituted unsymmetric pyrrole and pyrrolin-4-one derivatives is disclosed. In the presence of Cu(OAc)2 and KOAc, substituted pyrrole derivatives are produced in good yields (up to 93 %) through oxidative cyclization of enamino esters. Meanwhile, using CuCl2 and TFA (trifluoroacetic acid), pyrrolin-4-one derivatives are obtained in excellent yields (up to 94 %) through 1,2-aryl migration. A wide range of functional groups have been tolerated, and a reliable method for the synthesis of valuable multisubstituted pyrroles and pyrrolin-4-ones has been developed.

Copper-Catalyzed Tandem Reaction of Enamino Esters with ortho-Halogenated Aromatic Carbonyls: One-Pot Approach to Functionalized Quinolines

An efficient and practical approach for the synthesis of functionalized quinolines has been developed by using the copper-catalyzed tandem C–C bond formation and C–N coupling reaction of enamino esters and ortho-halogenated aromatic carbonyl compounds. Various functional groups were tolerated under the reaction conditions, and a series of quinolines were easily obtained in moderate to good yields. A gram-scale reaction was also performed to demonstrate a further application of this synthetic method.

Copper-Catalyzed One-pot Synthesis of Pyrimidines from Amides, N,N′-dimethylformamide dimethylacetal, and Enamines

A versatile copper catalyzed one-pot synthesis of diversely substituted pyrimidines directly from amides, N,N′-dimethylformamide dimethylacetal (DMF?DMA) and enamines has been established. The reaction involved the two C?N bonds and one C?C bond formation by formal [2+1+3] annulation approach to pyrimidines. This protocol is based on the use of readily available primary amides, DMF?DMA and enamines to install di- and tri-substituted pyrimidine structure with diverse functionality in one-pot manner, which makes this strategy to be appealing for the medicinal chemistry. (Figure presented.).

Chiral Lewis Base-Catalyzed, Enantioselective Reduction of Unprotected β-Enamino Esters with Trichlorosilane

Catalytic asymmetric reduction of N-unsubstituted β-enamino esters represents a major challenge for asymmetric catalysis. In this paper, the first organocatalytic system that could be used for the asymmetric hydrosilylation of N-unsubstituted β-enamino esters has been developed. Using N-tert-butylsulfinyl-L-proline-derived amides and L-pipecolinic acid-derived formamides as catalyst, a broad range of β-aryl- and β-alkyl-substituted free β-amino esters could be prepared with high yields and enantioselectivities. The practicality was illustrated by the gram-scale asymmetric synthesis of ethyl (R)-3-amino-3-phenylpropanoate and isopropyl (S)-3-amino-4-(2,3,5-trifluorophenyl)butanoate. The resulting product can be smoothly transformed to the FDA approved medicines dapoxetine and sitagliptin in a short synthetic route.
