A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroesterification of α-aryl acrylic acids with CO and alcohol was developed, preparing a variety of chiral α-substituted succinates in moderate yields with high ee values. The kinetic profile of the reaction progress revealed that the alkene substrate first underwent the hydroesterification followed by esterification with alcohol. The origin of the enantioselectivity was elucidated by density functional theory computation.

Reported herein is a practical method for macrolactam synthesis via a Rh(III)-catalyzed ring closing alkene-alkene cross-coupling reaction. The reaction proceeded via a Rh-catalyzed alkenyl sp2 C-H activation process, which allows access to macrocyclic molecules of different ring sizes. Macrolactams containing a conjugated diene framework could be easily prepared in high chemoselectivities and Z,E stereoselectivities.

Pharmacological inhibition of cathepsin S (CatS) allows for a specific modulation of the adaptive immune system and many major diseases. Here, we used NMR fragment screening and crystal structure-aided merging to synthesize novel, highly selective CatS inhibitors with picomolar enzymatic Ki values and nanomolar functional activity in human Raji cells. Noncovalent fragment hits revealed binding hotspots, while the covalent inhibitor structure-activity relationship enabled efficient potency optimization.

Nucleophilic attack on carbon-based electrophiles is a central reactivity paradigm in chemistry and biology. The steric and electronic properties of the electrophile dictate its reactivity with different nucleophiles of interest, allowing the opportunity to fine-tune electrophiles for use as coupling partners in multistep organic synthesis or for covalent modification of proteins in drug discovery. Reactions that directly transform inexpensive chemical feedstocks into versatile carbon electrophiles would therefore be highly enabling. Herein, we report the catalytic, regioselective oxidative cyanation of conjugated and nonconjugated alkenes using a homogeneous copper catalyst and a bystanding N-F oxidant to furnish branched alkenyl nitriles that are difficult to prepare using existing methods. We show that the alkenyl nitrile products serve as electrophilic reaction partners for both organic synthesis and the chemical proteomic discovery of covalent protein ligands.

A Ni-catalyzed enantioselective reductive diarylation of activated alkenes by domino cyclizative/cross-coupling of two aryl bromides is developed. This reaction proceeds under very mild conditions and shows broad substrate scope, without requiring the use of preformed organometallic reagents. Moreover, this approach provides direct access to various bis-heterocycles bearing all-carbon quaternary centers in synthetically useful yields (up to 81%) with excellent enantioselectivity (>30 examples, 90-99% ee).
Compounding method for racecadotril intermediate
-
Paragraph 0025; 0028; 0031, (2017/05/03)
The invention discloses a compounding method for a racecadotril intermediate. The compounding method comprises the following steps: causing ethyl phenylpropiolate, dimethylamine and trioxymethylene react with each other, treating with hydrochloric acid to obtain benzyl ethyl acrylate, and then hydrolyzing under an alkaline condition, thereby obtaining benzyl acrylic acid. According to the compounding method disclosed by the invention, benzyl chloride with higher toxicity is replaced by ethyl phenylpropiolate, the compounding route is shortened, the production efficiency is increased, and thus the compounding method is suitable for industrial production.

A controllable Rh-catalyzed protocol to access alkylation and alkenylation-annulation of N-tosyl acrylamide with acryloyl silane is reported. In contrast to the directing group or catalyst-dependent divergent sp2 C-H alkylation/alkenylation, the intrinsic property of acryloylsilane allows the switchable reaction manifold, thereby affording either alkylation or annulation products with slight modification of the reaction conditions.
Diastereoselective synthesis of trans-3,5-disubstituted dihydrofuran-2(3H)-ones via SmI2-mediated reductive coupling of 2-alkylacrylates of N,N-diisopropyl-2-hydroxybenzamide with aldehydes

, p. 664 - 673 (2016/01/15)
Samarium(II) diiodide has been used to mediate reductive coupling reactions of aldehydes with a variety of substituted acrylates, in both achiral and chiral forms, for accessing substituted dihydrofuran-2(3H)-ones (γ-butyrolactones). Two major issues, concerning with self-dimerization of α-non-branched aliphatic aldehydes and low diastereoselectivity of the products, render limited application of the reductive coupling protocol in total synthesis of natural products. We report here on a novel type of substituted acrylates derived from the 2-amido arenols (HO-Aram) such as N,N-diisopropyl-2-hydroxybenzamide. The acrylates of HO-Aram enable: (a) preferential conjugate reduction of the acrylates than carbonyl reduction of aliphatic aldehydes, leading to diminished aldehyde self-dimerization; and (b) organization of an eight-membered ring among the amide carbonyl oxygen atom and samarium(III) to form a 7/8-bicyclic transition state, resulting in highly diastereoselective protonation of the samarium(III) enolate intermediate. Examples of synthesis of trans-3,5-disubstituted dihydrofuran-2(3H)-ones from 2-alkylacrylates of HO-Aram and aliphatic aldehydes are provided.
