Highly reactive catalysts for ortho-hydroarylations of alkynes have previously been reported to result from activation of CoBr2 by Grignard reagents, but the operative mechanism and identity of the active cobalt species have been undefined. A mechanistic analysis of a related system, involving hydroarylations of a (N-aryl)aryl ethanimine with diphenylacetylene, was performed using isolable reduced Co complexes. Studies of the stoichiometric reaction of Co(I) or Co(II) precursors with CyMgCl implicated catalyst initiation via a β-H elimination/deprotonation pathway. The resulting single-component Co(-I) complex is proposed as the direct pre-catalyst. Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetic studies provide mechanistic details regarding the catalytic dependence on substrate. The (N-aryl)aryl ethanimine substrate exhibited saturation-like behavior, whereas alkyne demonstrated a complex dependency; rate inhibition and promotion depend on the relative concentration of alkyne to imine. Activation of the aryl C-H bond occurred only in the presence of coordinated alkyne, which suggests operation of a concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) mechanism. Small primary isotope effects are consistent with a rate-determining C-H cleavage. Off-cycle olefin isomerization catalyzed by the same Co(-I) active species appears to be responsible for the observed Z-selectivity.

A new application of hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid (HOSA) has been discovered whereby aromatic ketones react with HOSA and alkynes to form isoquinolines in the presence of a RhIII catalyst. This C–H/N–O annulation methodology gives excellent yields even without any silver additive, acid/base or metal oxidant. This is the first report wherein a directing group is simultaneously forming in situ, acting as acid additive, and also as an internal oxidant.

New chiral N,C-chelate organoboron compounds based on benzylideneamines (bza) with the general formula of B(bza-R)Mes2 (R=H or Me; Mes=mesityl) are reported. A chiral substituent group R- or S-CH(CH3)Ph (Ph=phenyl) was introduced to
Chemo- and Stereoselective Synthesis of Fluorinated Amino Alcohols through One-pot Reactions using Alcohol Dehydrogenases and Amine Transaminases

A series of amino alcohols have been prepared in a chemo-, diastereo- and enantioselective fashion starting from the corresponding (het)aryl diketones, avoiding tedious chemical protection and deprotection steps. Different alcohol dehydrogenases have been
Internal B-O Bond-Facilitated Photoisomerization of Boranes: Ring Expansion Versus Oxyborane Elimination/Intramolecular Diels-Alder Addition

Boron compounds (1-4) containing an internal B-O bond have been found to undergo facile multistructural transformations upon irradiation at 365 or 410 nm, generating rare 8-membered B,O-heterocycles (1c-4c). In addition, 2 and 3 also undergo an intramolecular Diels-Alder addition and oxyborane elimination concomitantly, via intermediates 2b/3b, producing 2d/3d. The pathways to isomer c and product d were found to be a thermal process and a photo process, respectively.
Synthesis of the Tetracyclic Cores of the Integrastatins, Epicoccolide A and Epicocconigrone A
Jeong, Joo Young,Sperry, Jonathan,Brimble, Margaret A.
, p. 11935 - 11944 (2019/09/30)
The integrastatins, epicoccolide A and epicoccongirone A, are natural products containing a unique [6.6.6.6]-tetracyclic core framework that exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities. A synthesis of the common core of epicoccolide A and epicocconigrone A has been achieved using an umpolung alkylation-lactonization to assemble an isochromanone from which the bridged 1,3-dioxane was readily assembled. A different strategy was required to access the core on the integrastatins; an initial aryllithium addition to an aldehyde, followed by oxidation and treatment of the masked dihydroxyketone with acid gave the desired core structure.

Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease and a public health concern in at least 98 countries, affecting mainly the poorest populations. Pharmaceuticals and chemotherapies available for leishmaniasis treatment have several limitations, which clearly justify the efforts to find new potential antileishmanial drugs. In this context, antiprotozoal activities toward different Leishmania species have been reported for hypervalent tellurium compounds, which motivated us to investigate, for the first time, the leishmanicidal properties of some nonhypervalent diaryl ditellurides. Thus, this work describes in vitro activity against Leishmania amazonensis and the cytotoxicities of diaryl ditellurides. Ditelluride LQ7 revealed a strong leishmanicidal activity on promastigotes and amastigotes at submicromolar levels (IC50 = 0.9 ± 0.1 and 0.5 ± 0.1 μmol L-1, respectively) and presented selectivity indexes greater than those of reference drug miltefosine. This preliminary study suggests that diaryl ditellurides may be promising scaffolds for the development of new agents for leishmaniasis treatment.
