MANGANESE BASED COMPLEXES AND USES THEREOF FOR HOMOGENEOUS CATALYSIS

The present invention relates to novel manganese complexes and their use, inter alia, for homogeneous catalysis in (1) the preparation of imine by dehydrogenative coupling of an alcohol and amine; (2) C-C coupling in Michael addition reaction using nitriles as Michael donors; (3) dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols to give esters and hydrogen gas (4) hydrogenation of esters to form alcohols (including hydrogenation of cyclic esters (lactones) or cyclic di-esters (di- lactones), or polyesters); (5) hydrogenation of amides (including cyclic dipeptides, lactams, diamide, polypeptides and polyamides) to alcohols and amines (or diamine); (6) hydrogenation of organic carbonates (including polycarbonates) to alcohols or hydrogenation of carbamates (including polycarbamates) or urea derivatives to alcohols and amines; (7) dehydrogenation of secondary alcohols to ketones; (8) amidation of esters (i.e., synthesis of amides from esters and amines); (9) acylation of alcohols using esters; (10) coupling of alcohols with water and a base to form carboxylic acids; and (11) preparation of amino acids or their salts by coupling of amino alcohols with water and a base. (12) preparation of amides (including formamides, cyclic dipeptides, diamide, lactams, polypeptides and polyamides) by dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines; (13) preparation of imides from diols.

Manganese-Catalyzed Environmentally Benign Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols and Amines to Form Aldimines and H2: A Catalytic and Mechanistic Study

The catalytic dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines to form aldimines represents an environmentally benign methodology in organic chemistry. This has been accomplished in recent years mainly with precious-metal-based catalysts. We present the dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines to form imines and H2 that is catalyzed, for the first time, by a complex of the earth-abundant Mn. Detailed mechanistic study was carried out with the aid of NMR spectroscopy, intermediate isolation, and X-ray analysis.

Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of N-(2-arylethyl) isoquinoline derivatives as human scavenger receptor CD36 antagonists

By using human scavenger receptor CD36 as the target, twenty-five N-(2-arylethyl) isoquinoline derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antagonistic activities for CD36-oxidatively low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) binding. The primary analysis of structure-activity relationship (SAR) indicated a methoxyl at the 7-position and a hydroxyl at the 6- or 8-position could afford good activities. Among these analogs, compounds 7e and 7t showed the potential CD36 antagonistic activities with IC50 values of 0.2 and 0.8 μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, both of them could effectively inhibit oxLDL uptake in insect Sf9 cells overexpressing human CD36, and thus have been selected for further investigation. We consider N-(2-arylethyl) isoquinoline analogs to be a family of novel CD36 antagonists.

Synthesis, structure-activity relationship and in vitro biological evaluation of N-arylethyl isoquinoline derivatives as Coxsackievirus B3 inhibitors

Currently, there is no approved antiviral drug for the infection caused by enteroviruses. A series of novel N-arylethyl isoquinoline derivatives defined with substituents on the ring A and C were designed, synthesized and evaluated in vitro for their activities against Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3). The primary structure-activity relationship revealed that substituents on the ring A were not beneficial for the activity. Among these analogs synthesized, compound 7f bearing a methylenedioxy at the R4 and R5 positions afforded an anti-CVB3 activity and a reasonable selectivity index (SI = 26.8); furthermore, 7f exhibited a moderate activity against enterovirus 71 (EV71) with SI value of 9.0. Thus it has been selected as an anti-enteroviral lead compound for further investigation.

Direct synthesis of imines from alcohols and amines with liberation of H2

"Chemical equation presented" A clean sweep: Aryl and aliphatic mines can be synthesized directly and efficiently from alcohols and amines under mild, neutral conditions with the liberation of only molecular hydrogen and water (see scheme; R=isopropyl, tert-butyl). This general, environmentally benign reaction is catalyzed by a de-aromatized ruthenium PNP pincer complex (0.2 mol%), and can proceed in toluene under an inert atmosphere or under air.
