The asymmetric synthesis of β-lactams: HETPHOX/Cu(I) mediated synthesis via the Kinugasa reaction

The reactions of nitrones with terminal alkynes, catalysed by a range of HETPHOX ligands afforded β-lactams in moderate to good conversions with ees up to 55%. High levels of diastereoselectivity, dependent on the alkyne, were obtained. For example, the reaction is highly cis-diastereoselective with phenylacetylene (>9:1), while an unexpected reversal of diastereoselectivity is observed with the 3,5-trifluoromethyl phenylacetylene, which is highly trans selective (1:9) with an ee of 53%. The reaction scope with differently substituted nitrones and phenylacetylenes was also studied.

Visible-light-mediated anti-regioselective nitrone 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction and synthesis of bisindolylmethanes

The development of photoredox reactions of 1, 3- dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones with alkenes is reported. It offers an efficient synthetic method to obtain isoxazolidine derivatives under mild conditions in synthetically useful yields. The nitrones are cyclized with oxidizable styrenes and aliphatic alkenes via a polar radical crossover cycloaddition reaction through photocatalytic reaction without additives. In addition, bis(indole)methanes can also be prepared through this method.

Synthesis of 2,3-Disubstituted NH Indoles via Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed C-H Activation of Arylnitrones and Coupling with Diazo Compounds

A rhodium-catalyzed intermolecular coupling between arylnitrones and diazo compounds by C-H activation/[4 + 1] annulation with a C(N2)-C(acyl) bond cleavage is reported, and 2,3-disubstituted NH indoles are directly synthesized in up to a 94% yield. A variety of functional groups are applicable to this reaction to give the corresponding products with high selectivity. Compared to other previously reported Rh(III)-catalyzed synthesis of homologous series, this method is simpler, more general, and more efficient.

Iron-Catalyzed Cyclization of Nitrones with Geminal-Substituted Vinyl Acetates: A Direct [4 + 2] Assembly Strategy Leading to 2,4-Disubstituted Quinolines

An iron-catalyzed intermolecular [4 + 2] cyclization of arylnitrones with geminal-substituted vinyl acetates was developed for the synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted quinolines in moderate to good yields with good functional group compatibilities. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest a plausible iron-catalyzed C-H activation process under external-oxidant-free conditions.

Rhodium-Catalyzed C-H Annulation of Nitrones with Alkynes: A Regiospecific Route to Unsymmetrical 2,3-Diaryl-Substituted Indoles

The direct C-H annulation of anilines or related compounds with internal alkynes provides straightforward access to 2,3-disubstituted indole products. However, this transformation proceeds with poor regioselectivity in the synthesis of unsymmetrically 2,3-diaryl substituted indoles. Herein, we report the rhodium(III)-catalyzed C-H annulation of nitrones with symmetrical diaryl alkynes as an alternative method to prepare 2,3-diaryl-substituted N-unprotected indoles with two different aryl groups. One of the aryl substituents is derived from N?C-aryl ring of the nitrone and the other from the alkyne substrate, thus providing the indole products with exclusive regioselectivity.

Rhodium-catalyzed cyclization of diynes with nitrones: A formal [2+2+5] approach to bridged eight-membered heterocycles

N-aryl-substituted nitrones were employed as fiveatom coupling partners in the rhodium-catalyzed cyclization with diynes. In this reaction, the nitrone moiety served as a directing group for the catalytic C-H activation of the N-aryl ring. This formal [2+2+5] approach allows rapid access to bridged eight-membered heterocycles with broad substrate scope. The results of this study may provide new insight into the chemistry of nitrones and find applications in the synthesis of other heterocycles,.

An unexpected catalytic synthesis of novel and known bis(pyrazolyl) methanes by the use of α-aryl-N-phenyl nitrones in aqueous media

Reaction of -aryl-N-phenyl nitrones with 3.methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline-5-one in the presence of a catalytic amount of silica tungstic acid in EtOH/H2O afforded, unexpectedly, high yields of bis(3-hydroxy-1-phenylpyrazolyl)-arylmethanes instead of the two possible 1,3-addition products. This is the first report of the synthesis of bis(3-hydroxy-1-phenylpyrazolyl)-arylmethanes via the reaction of nitrones and a pyrazolin-5-one. A possible mechanism for the process is suggested.

Stereoselective synthesis of fluoroalkenoates and fluorinated isoxazolidinones: N-substituents governing the dual reactivity of nitrones

α-Fluoroalkenoates and 4-fluoro-5-isoxazolidinones are of vast interest due to their potential biological applications. We now demonstrate the syntheses of (E)-α-fluoroalkenoates and 4-fluoro-5-isoxazolidinones by the reactions between nitrones and α-fluoro-α-bromoacetate. By altering N-substituents in nitrones, (E)-α-fluoroalkenoates and 4-fluoro-5-isoxazolidinones can be achieved, respectively, with high chemo- and stereoselectivities. Experimental and computational studies have been conducted to elucidate the reaction mechanisms. Linear free energy relationship studies further revealed that the N-substituent effects are primarily of electronic origin. Copyright

A highly stereoselective synthesis of chiral α-amino-β-lactams via the Kinugasa reaction employing ynamides

(Chemical Equation Presented) A highly stereoselective synthesis of chiral α-amino-β-lactam through an ynamide-Kinugasa reaction is described. In addition, a mechanistic model is illustrated here to rationalize the observed diastereoselectivity, which depends on both the initial [3 + 2] cycloaddition step and the subsequent protonation for which both are highly selective.
