Alkene synthesis by photocatalytic chemoenzymatically compatible dehydrodecarboxylation of carboxylic acids and biomass

Direct conversion of renewable biomass and bioderived chemicals to valuable synthetic intermediates for organic synthesis and materials science applications by means of mild and chemoselective catalytic methods has largely remained elusive. Development of artificial catalytic systems that are compatible with enzymatic reactions provides a synergistic solution to this enduring challenge by leveraging previously unachievable reactivity and selectivity modes. We report herein a dual catalytic dehydrodecarboxylation reaction that is enabled by a crossover of the photoinduced acridine-catalyzed O-H hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and cobaloxime-catalyzed C-H-HAT processes. The reaction produces a variety of alkenes from readily available carboxylic acids. The reaction can be embedded in a scalable triple-catalytic cooperative chemoenzymatic lipase-acridine-cobaloxime process that allows for direct conversion of plant oils and biomass to long-chain terminal alkenes, precursors to bioderived polymers.

Total synthesis of new lipocarbazoles isolated from the actinomycete tsukamurella pseudospumae acta 1857

New lipocarbazoles were synthesized by a sequence of three palladium-mediated coupling reactions and an improved protecting group strategy.

Synthesis of Heptadeca-1,8Z,11Z-triene

The bromide (III), obtained from oct-2Z-en-1-ol (II) by treatment with PBr3/pyridine, reacts smoothly with 3-(tetrahydro-2-pyranyloxy)propynylmagnesium bromide to give IV which loses the protective pyranyl moiety when reacted with PTS/methanol to yield the alcohol (V).Catalytic hydrogenation of V in the presence of Lindlar's catalyst affords the dienol (VI) which is converted into the corresponding mesylate (VII) on reaction with MsCl/TEA.Coupling of VII with hex-1-enylmagnesium bromide in THF/HMPA at 0 deg C provides the title compound (I).
