Reaction design in asymmetric catalysis has traditionally been predicated on a structurally robust scaffold in both substrates and catalysts, to reduce the number of possible diastereomeric transition states. Herein, we present the stereochemical dynamics in the Ni(II)-catalyzed diastereoconvergent (3 + 2) cycloadditions of isomerizable nitrile-conjugated nitrones with α-keto ester enolates. Even in the presence of multiple equilibrating species, the catalytic protocol displays a wide substrate scope to access a range of CN-containing building blocks bearing adjacent stereocenters with high enantio- and diastereoselectivities. Our computational investigations suggest that the enantioselectivity is governed in the deprotonation process to form (Z)-Ni-enolates, while the unique syn addition is mainly controlled by weak noncovalent bonding interactions between the nitrone and ligand.

As the orexin signaling system is crucial for the regulation of the sleep/wake cycle, inhibitors of orexin-1 and orexin-2 receptors are of significant interest in the treatment of insomnia. Herein, a series of novel azacycloheptane sulfonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized, and all the compounds were evaluated as potential orexin receptor inhibitors by FLIPR Tetra calcium assay. A majority of the tested azacycloheptane sulfonamide derivatives showed OX1R and OX2R inhibitory activity. Chloro-substituted derivatives functionalized at the C5 or C6 position of the benzoxazole group exhibited better inhibitory activity for OX1R and OX2R than unsubstituted derivatives functionalized at C5 or C6. In addition, phenyl group modification had positive effects on the inhibitory activities, and an electron-withdrawing fluorine group at the ortho or meta position of the phenyl ring improved the OX2R inhibitory activity of the derivatives. This suggests that azacycloheptane sulfonamide derivatives are promising scaffolds for the development of OX1R and OX2R antagonists.

Aiming to discover novel high-efficient antifungal leads that possess an innovative action mechanism, twenty-three carboxylated pyrroline-2-one derivatives, bearing a phenylhydrazine moiety, were rationally designed and firstly prepared in this letter. The in vitro bioassays showed that most of the compounds possessed excellent antifungal effects with the EC50 values of less than 1 μg/mL against the phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium graminearum (Fg), Botrytis cinerea (Bc), Rhizoctonia solani (Rs) and Colletotrichum capsici (Cc). The further bioassays showed that the compound 6u showed the comparable in vivo control effect with carbendazim against fusarium head blight and rice sheath blight. The 3D-QSAR model revealed the pivotal effects of a bulky electron-donating group at the 1-position of pyrrole ring, a bulky electron-withdrawing group at the 4-position of phenyl ring and a small alkyl at the carbonate group on the anti-Rs activities of target compounds. The abnormal mycelial morphology and delayed spore germination were observed in the treatments of compound 6u. Given the excellent and broad-spectrum antifungal effects the target compounds have, we unfeignedly anticipated that the above finding could motivate the discovery of high-efficient antifungal leads, which might possess an innovative action mechanism against phytopathogenic fungi.

Selenoamides are selectively reduced to amines by SmI2 with H2O. The process is general for primary, secondary, and tertiary aryl and alkyl selenoamide substrates and selectively delivers amine products. The reduction proceeds under mild conditions using SmI2 activated by straightforward addition of H2O, and does not require an additional Lewis base additive.
Synthesis of 1,4-Oxazepane-2,5-diones via Cyclization of Rotationally Restricted Amino Acid Precursors and Structural Reassignment of Serratin

Several natural products containing a 1,4-oxazepane-2,5-dione-core are known. One example is serratin, isolated from Serratia marcescens. Because of the presence of a carboxylic amide, which has a preference for a trans-conformation, and the presence of a labile lactone in this core, many synthetic methodologies commonly used for the cyclization toward medium-sized heterocycles cannot be applied. As N-acyl amino acids lacking a third substituent at nitrogen failed to undergo ring-closure, several N-protecting groups were evaluated. With the use of the removable PMB-group, an N-unsubstituted 1,4-oxazepane-2,5-dione was synthesized. Via the application of pseudoprolines (i.e. serine-derived oxazolidines as another type of protecting group), a compound with the presumed structure of the natural product serratin was obtained. As a result of the differences in spectral data, the incorrect structural assignment of the natural product serratin was identified. Instead of the predicted seven-membered heterocycle, a symmetrical serratamolide analogue is proposed to be the correct structure of serratin.

Analogous substrates bearing N-carbonyl groups are converted to 1,4,2-oxazaborole derivatives under similar conditions.
Aza-Wittig Rearrangements of N-Benzyl and N-Allyl Glycine Methyl Esters. Discovery of a Surprising Cascade Aza-Wittig Rearrangement/Hydroboration Reaction
Everett, Renata K.,Wolfe, John P.
, p. 9041 - 9056 (2015/09/28)
Treatment of N-(arylmethyl)-N-aryl or N-allyl-N-aryl glycine methyl ester derivatives with nBu2BOTf and iPr2NEt effects an aza-Wittig rearrangement that provides N-aryl phenylalanine methyl ester derivatives and N-aryl allylglycine methyl ester derivatives, respectively, in good yield with moderate to good diastereoselectivity. Under similar conditions, analogous substrates bearing N-carbonyl groups are converted to 1,4,2-oxazaborole derivatives. Additionally, N-allyl-N-aryl glycine methyl ester derivatives subjected to similar conditions at elevated temperatures undergo an aza-[2,3]-Wittig rearrangement, followed by a subsequent hydroboration oxidation reaction, to afford substituted amino alcohol products.

Insulin degrading enzyme (IDE) is a zinc metalloprotease that degrades small amyloid peptides such as amyloid-a and insulin. So far the dearth of IDE-specific pharmacological inhibitors impacts the understanding of its role in the physiopathology of Alzheimer's disease, amyloid-a clearance, and its validation as a potential therapeutic target. Hit 1 was previously discovered by high-throughput screening. Here we describe the structure-activity study, that required the synthesis of 48 analogues. We found that while the carboxylic acid, the imidazole and the tertiary amine were critical for activity, the methyl ester was successfully optimized to an amide or a 1,2,4-oxadiazole. Along with improving their activity, compounds were optimized for solubility, lipophilicity and stability in plasma and microsomes. The docking or co-crystallization of some compounds at the exosite or the catalytic site of IDE provided the structural basis for IDE inhibition. The pharmacokinetic properties of best compounds 44 and 46 were measured in vivo. As a result, 44 (BDM43079) and its methyl ester precursor 48 (BDM43124) are useful chemical probes for the exploration of IDE's role.

Syntheses of some new pyrrolo-fused pyrrolo[1,2-a] indole derivatives have been achieved by combining N-allyl-indole-2-carbaldehyde with a variety of N-alkyl-glycine esters as well as tetrahydroisoquinolines in an ionic liquid, triethylammonium acetate (TEAA), a recyclable reaction medium, via intramolecular [3+2] cycloaddition reaction. This new method is highly efficient, and the ionic liquid employed is recyclable. The stereochemistry of all the compounds was confirmed by 2D NMR NOESY and in some cases single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The in vitro screening of all new candidates against various bacterial strains and representative human solid tumor cell lines, A549 (lung), HeLa (cervix), SW1573 (lung), T-47D (breast) and WiDr (colon), revealed that many of them have good antibacterial, antifungal and antitubercular and antiproliferative activities.
