Hydrogenation or Dehydrogenation of N-Containing Heterocycles Catalyzed by a Single Manganese Complex

A highly chemoselective base-metal catalyzed hydrogenation and acceptorless dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles is presented. A well-defined Mn complex operates at low catalyst loading (as low as 2 mol %) and under mild reaction conditions. The described catalytic system tolerates various functional groups, and the corresponding reduced heterocycles can be obtained in high yields. Experimental studies indicate a metal-ligand cooperative catalysis mechanism.

Manganese-Catalyzed Regioselective Dehydrogenative C-versus N-Alkylation Enabled by a Solvent Switch: Experiment and Computation

The first base metal-catalyzed regioselective dehydrogenative alkylation of indolines using readily available alcohols as the alkylating reagent is reported. A single air-and moisture-stable manganese catalyst provides access to either C3-or N-alkylated indoles depending on the solvent used. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction takes place through a combined acceptorless dehydrogenation and hydrogen autotransfer strategy.

Indoline Catalyzed Acylhydrazone/Oxime Condensation under Neutral Aqueous Conditions

Acylhydrazones formation has been widely applied in materials science and biolabeling. However, their sluggish condensation rate under neutral conditions limits its application. Herein, indolines with electron-donating groups are reported as a new catalyst scaffold, which can catalyze acylhydrazone, hydrazone, and oxime formation via an iminium ion intermediate. This new type of catalyst showed up to 15-fold rate enhancement over the traditional anilinecatalyzed reaction at neutral conditions. The identified indoline catalyst was successfully applied in hydrogel formation.

Transition-Metal-Free Stereospecific Oxidative Annulative Coupling of Indolines with Aziridines

Tandem C-N bond formation for the oxidative annulation of indolines with aziridines is accomplished employing the combination of DDQ and NaOCl at ambient conditions. Optically active aziridine can be coupled with high enantiomeric purity (>99% ee). The substrate scope, stereocontrol with the enantioenriched substrate, and scale-up are the important practical advantages.

Dual-Active-Sites Design of Co@C Catalysts for Ultrahigh Selective Hydrogenation of N-Heteroarenes

The dual-active-sites Co@C catalyst provides a general powerful strategy to break the limitation of scaling relation on traditional metal surfaces and thus affords unprecedentedly selective hydrogenation of various N-heteroarenes as well as high activity and stability. A porous carbon shell not only allows H2 diffusion to Co sites for activation but also blocks accessibility of N-heteroarenes, and the hydrogenation of N-heteroarenes is achieved on carbon by the spilled hydrogen from Co sites. In addition, the presence of surface/subsurface carbon at the Co sites shows high anti-sulfur poisoning and anti-oxidant capability. Ideal heterogeneous metal hydrogenation catalysts are featured by simultaneously high activity, selectivity, and stability. Herein, we report a general yet powerful strategy to design and fabricate dual-active-sites Co@C core-shell nanoparticle for boosting selective hydrogenation of various N-heteroarenes. It can break the limitation of scaling relation on traditional metal surfaces, and thus afford unprecedentedly high selectivity, activity, and stability. Combining kinetics analysis and DFT calculations with multiple techniques directly unveil that the critical porous carbon shell with a pore size of 0.53 nm not only allows H2 diffusion to Co sites for activation and blocks accessibility of N-heteroarenes but also catalyzes hydrogenation of N-heteroarenes via hydrogen spillover from Co sites. In addition, the presence of surface/subsurface carbon at the Co sites shows high anti-sulfur poisoning and anti-oxidant capability. This work is valuable for guiding the design and manipulation of cost-effective and robust hydrogenation catalysts. Our research can provide an environmentally friendly approach to afford unprecedentedly selective N-heteroarenes hydrogenation, which will greatly reduce the resource and energy consumption and decrease the amount of waste discharge and water pollution. Therefore, these results could help in achieving the “Clean water and sanitation” goal in the 10 UN Sustainable Development Goals. Meanwhile, the products of N-heteroarenes hydrogenation are the core structural motifs in both fine and bulk chemicals, which will make our life more beautiful. Thus, our research also benefits the “Good health and well-being” goal.

Re-Catalyzed Annulations of Weakly Coordinating N-Carbamoyl Indoles/Indolines with Alkynes via C?H/C?N Bond Cleavage

Described herein are rhenium-catalyzed [3+2] annulations of N-carbamoyl indoles with alkynes via C?H/C?N bond cleavage, which provide rapid access to fused-ring pyrroloindolone derivatives. For the first time, the weakly coordinating O-directing group was successfully employed in rhenium-catalyzed C?H activation reactions, enabled by the unique catalytic trio of Re2(CO)10, Me2Zn and ZnCl2. Mechanistic studies revealed that aminozinc species plays an important role in the reaction. Based on the mechanistic understanding, a more powerful catalytic trio of Re2(CO)10, [MeZnNPh2]2 and Zn(OTf)2 was devised and applied successfully in the [4+2] annulations of indolines and alkynes affording pyrroloquinolinone derivatives.

This method provides sustainable and efficient access to synthesize difluoroalkylated pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles with a quaternary carbon center under mild conditions.

Rh(III)-Catalyzed C7-Thiolation and Selenation of Indolines

The rhodium(III)-catalyzed intermolecular C7-thiolation and selenation of indolines with disulfides and diselenides were developed. This protocol relies on the use of a removable pyrimidyl directing group to access valuable C-7 functionalized indoline scaffolds with ample substrate scope and broad functional group tolerance.

Discovery of a novel series of indoline carbamate and indolinylpyrimidine derivatives as potent GPR119 agonists

GPR119 has emerged as an attractive target for anti-diabetic agents. We identified a structurally novel GPR119 agonist 22c that carries a 5-(methylsulfonyl)indoline motif as an early lead compound. To generate more potent compounds of this series, structural modifications were performed mainly to the central alkylene spacer. Installation of a carbonyl group and a methyl group on this spacer significantly enhanced agonistic activity, resulting in the identification of 2-[1-(5-ethylpyrimidin-2-yl)piperidin-4-yl]propyl 7-fluoro-5-(methylsulfonyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-1-carboxylate (20). To further expand the chemical series of indoline-based GPR119 agonists, several heterocyclic core systems were introduced as surrogates of the carbamate spacer that mimic the presumed active conformation. This approach successfully produced an indolinylpyrimidine derivative 37, 5-(methylsulfonyl)-1-[6-({1-[3-(propan-2- yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]piperidin-4-yl}oxy)pyrimidin-4-yl]-2, 3-dihydro-1H-indole, which has potent GPR119 agonist activity. In rat oral glucose tolerance tests, these two indoline-based compounds effectively lowered plasma glucose excursion and glucose-dependent insulin secretion after oral administration.

A divergent SAR study allows optimization of a potent 5-HT2c inhibitor to a promising antimalarial scaffold

From the 13-533 chemical structures published by GlaxoSmithKline in 2010, we identified 47 quality starting points for lead optimization. One of the most promising hits was the TCMDC-139046, a molecule presenting an indoline core, which is well-known for its anxiolytic properties by interacting with serotonin antagonist receptors 5-HT2. The inhibition of this target will complicate the clinical development of these compounds as antimalarials. Herein, we present the antimalarial profile of this series and our efforts to avoid interaction with this receptor, while maintaining a good antiparasitic potency. By using a double-divergent structure-activity relationship analysis, we have obtained a novel lead compound harboring an indoline core.
