Experimental and semiemprical studies of chemical reactivity of dialkylcadmium reagents addition to α,β-enones

, p. 4918 - 4925 (2006)
Experimental and semiempirical calculations were carried out to study the reactivity of dialkylcadmium reagents addition to α,β-enones. It was demonstrated that α,β-enone such as benzoquinone with low lying LUMO energy reacts via single electron transfer (SET) mechanism with the formation of the 1,2 or 1,4-type alkyl addition product depending on the reaction temperature and substrate structure. Site and chemoselectivity in unsymmetrical benzoquinone derivatives are determined by the stability of the cadmium coordinated semienone complex intermediates and the carbon spin densities of these reactive species respectively. On the other hand, by increasing the LUMO energy of α,β-enone system, the reaction mechanism changes from SET to polar addition affording the 1,4-type alkyl addition product. The establishment of a correlation scale between substrate LUMO energies and reaction mechanism presented in this article will be discussed.

The insect Blaps japanensis have been used as an ethnomedicine in China for the treatment of several disorders such as cancer and inflammation. Our investigation with this insect led to the isolation of eight new and two known phenolic compounds. The structures of the new compounds, blapsins C?J (1–8), were identified by spectroscopic data. The inhibitory activities of all the compounds except of 9 against human cancer cells (A549, K562 and Huh-7), COX-2, ROCK1, and JAK3 were evaluated. Several compounds were found to be biologically active in these assays.

Four palladium(ii) complexes with tripodal ligands of the tpa family (tpa = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) have been synthesized and X-ray characterized. These complexes efficiently catalyze benzylic C-H oxidation of various substrates with peracetic acid, affording the corresponding ketones in high yields (up to 100%), at 1 mol% catalyst loadings. Complex [(tpa)Pd(OAc)](PF6) with the least sterically demanding ligand tpa demonstrates the highest substrate conversions and ketone selectivities. Preliminary mechanistic data provide evidence in favor of metal complex-mediated rate-limiting benzylic C-H bond cleavage by an electron-deficient oxidant.

The dienone-phenol rearrangement of 4,4-disubstituted cyclohexadienones catalyzed by Re2O7 has been described. Multi-substituted phenols can be efficiently obtained in good to excellent yields by employing this catalytic protocol.
Candida antarctica lipase B-mediated regioselective acylation of dihydroxybenzenes in organic solvents

Candida antarctica lipase B proved to be a highly active biocatalyst for the direct acylation of phenolic hydroxy groups of substituted hydroquinones and resorcinols, which have rarely been reported so far. More importantly, the acylation reactions took place generally in a markedly regioselective manner: the hydroxy group remote from the substituent was preferentially acylated. In the case of substituted hydroquinones, the selectivity increased with the increase in the bulk of the substituent. Interestingly, the 1-O-monoacylated derivatives were obtained as the sole products in the case of 4-substituted resorcinols.
Candida antarctica lipase B-catalyzed regioselective deacylation of dihydroxybenzenes acylated at both phenolic hydroxy groups

, p. 44 - 49 (2016/01/16)
Candida antarctica lipase B proved to be highly active in the deacylation of substituted hydroquinones and resorcinols acylated at both phenolic hydroxy groups. The deacylation reactions were much faster than the corresponding direct acylations of these dihydroxybenzenes catalyzed by the same lipase. More importantly, they took place generally in a markedly regioselective manner: the acyloxy group remote from the substituent was preferentially cleaved. The main or exclusive products obtained were the regioisomers of those produced through the direct acylation of the dihydroxybenzenes. In the case of alkyl-substituted hydroquinone derivatives, the regioselectivity increased with an increase in the bulk of the substituent. In the case of 4-substituted diacylated resorcinols, the 3-O-monoacyl derivatives were obtained generally as the sole products. Quite interestingly, some secondary alcohols proved to act as better acyl acceptors than the corresponding primary alcohols in these enzymatic deacylations.

Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) was found to be highly regioselective as well as active in the deacylation of resorcinols and hydroquinones acylated at both phenolic hydroxyls. Contrary to expectation, secondary alcohols acted as better nucleophiles than primary alcohols in these enzymatic deacylations.

Several previous studies have addressed pheromone communication in various flour beetles (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), including the confused flour beetle, Tribolium confusum (du Val). Different stereoisomers of 4,8-dimethyldecanal (DMD) were reported as the only components of an aggregation pheromone, but the behavioral activity of DMD is low. In the present study, additional previously reported secondary metabolites (benzoquinones and hydrocarbons) were tested for electrophysiological activity (EAG) with both sexes of T. confusum. Two benzoquinones and three monoenic hydrocarbons elicited significant EAG activity from both male and female antennae. There was an elevated male EAG response (vs. the females) to two out of the three hydrocarbons and for both quinones. The EAG-active compounds were subsequently investigated for behavioral activity in a walking bioassay. Benzoquinones are considered toxic and have been assigned a function as alarm substances in flour beetles, but we found that methyl-1, 4-benzoquinone in intermediate concentrations was attractive to both male and female beetles and could therefore act as an aggregation pheromone component. Males were also attracted to ethyl-1,4-benzoquinone. The corresponding hydroquinones, presumed precursors of the benzoquinones, did not elicit any electrophysiological response and were not tested for behavioral activity. The unsaturated hydrocarbons (1-tetradecene, 1-pentadecene, and 1-hexadecene) elicited significant EAG responses from both male and female antennae and were also attractive in the behavioral assay. Our results show that several beetle-produced compounds, in addition to 4,8-dimethyldecanal, may be part of a complex pheromone system in flour beetles and play a role in mediating aggregation in T. confusum.
