A bifunctional amine/squaramide catalyst promoted direct aldol addition of an hydantoin surrogate to pyridine 2-carbaldehyde N-oxides to afford adducts bearing two vicinal tertiary/quaternary carbons in high diastereo- and enantioselectivity (d.r. up to >20:1; ee up to 98 %) is reported. Acid hydrolysis of adducts followed by reduction of the N-oxide group yields enantiopure carbinol-tethered quaternary hydantoin-azaarene conjugates with densely functionalized skeletons. DFT studies of the potential energy surface (B3LYP/6–31+G(d)+CPCM (dichloromethane)) of the reaction correlate the activity of different catalysts and support an intramolecular hydrogen-bond-assisted activation of the squaramide moiety in the transition state of the catalytic reaction.

A new method for the enantioselective synthesis of 5,5-disubstituted (quaternary) hydantoins was developed on the basis of an organocatalytic Michael reaction approach involving the use of 2-benzylthio-3,5-dihydroimidazol-4-ones as key hydantoin surrogates. The method is general with respect to the substitution pattern at the hydantoin N1 (alkyl, aryl, acyl), N3 (aryl), and C5 (linear/branched alkyl, aryl) positions and affords essentially single diastereomeric products with enantioselectivities higher than 95 % ee in most cases. Among the bifunctional Br?nsted base/H-bond catalysts examined, a known squaramide–tertiary amine catalyst and a newly prepared squaramide–tertiary amine catalyst provide the highest selectivity so far with either nitroolefins or vinyl ketones as the acceptor components. Kinetic measurements support a first-order rate dependence on both reaction partners, the donor template and the Michael acceptor, whereas competitive 1H NMR spectroscopy experiments reveal the high ability of the template for catalyst binding.

A series of compounds containing both 1,3,4-oxadiazole and thiohydantoin were synthesized as a promising scaffold for application in medicinal chemistry. The key step of the synthesis is a microwave-assisted cyclization of semicarbazides possessing a thiohydantoin moiety at one of the acyl termini using POCl3 as a dehydrating reagent. A wide range of semicarbazides were prepared through the substitution of hydrazides with an N-acylated thiohydantoin derived from the cyclization of the corresponding isothiocyanate with an amino acid and subsequent N-acylation of the resultant thiohydrantion. Consequently, the 58 number of 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives having a thiohydantoin substituent were prepared in good overall yields.

Microwave-assisted synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted thiohydantoins using functional ionic liquid as soluble support

experimental part, p. 1121 - 1127 (2011/06/17)
A new approach for the syntheses of 3,5-disubstituted thiohydantoins was described using functionalized ionic liquid as soluble support. The products were obtained in good yields and purities after cyclization-cleavage from the ionic-liquid-supported under microwave irradiation, the ionic-liquid-supported species can there be purified from the reaction mixture by simple washing, and no chromatographic purification were needed during the synthesis.

CHIRAL ANALYSIS OF THE REACTION STAGES IN THE EDMAN METHOD FOR SEQUENCING PEPTIDES

Chiral isothiocyanate reagents suitable for 'Edman sequencing' have been synthesised and used to assess the chiral features of individual stages in the Edman method.Using h.p.l.c. analysis of the diastereoisomeric thiohydantoins obtained, it has been deduced that the cyclisation and cleavage of thiazolinone step is the likely source of racemisation of the chiral centre derived from the N-terminal amino acid.
