The current work describes a stereoselective and scalable route to N-((R)-1-((cis)-4-(3-(difluoromethyl)-2-methoxypyridin-4-yl)cyclohexyl)propyl)-6-methoxynicotinamide (1) from readily available 1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decan-8-one. The developed process encompasses an efficient 1,4-trans-selective synthesis of (trans)-4-(3-(difluoromethyl)-2-methoxypyridin-4-yl)cyclohexyl methanesulfonate as the key intermediate and the use of Ellman sulfinamine methodology to install an alkyl amine in a stereoselective manner. Various synthetic routes were screened to accomplish a stereoselective and scalable protocol to access the title compound (1). This advancement enabled a competent route to the title compound in an enantioselective, safe, cost-effective, and scalable manner.

The chemoselective transformation of diarylethanones via either aerobic oxidative cleavage to give arylmethanoic acids or tandem aerobic oxidation/benzilic acid rearrangement/decarboxylation to give diarylmethanones has been developed. The transformation is controllable and applicable to a broad spectrum of substrates and affords the desired products in good to excellent yields. Mechanistic insights with control reactions, 1H NMR tracking, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveal a complex mechanistic network in which two common intermediates, α-ketohydroperoxide and diarylethanedione, and three plausible pathways are proposed and verified. These pathways are interlinked and can be switched reasonably by changing the reaction conditions. This method enables scalable synthesis and access to a number of valuable compounds, including vitamin B3, diphenic acid, and the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug ketoprofen. The present protocol represents a step forward in exploiting complex mechanistic networks to control reaction pathways, achieving divergent syntheses from the same class of starting materials.
