In the present work, 103 novel acyclic nucleosides were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anticancer activities in vitro and in vivo. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed that most target compounds inhibited the growth of colon cancer cells in vitro, of which 3-(6-chloro-9H-purin-9-yl)dodecan-1-ol (9b) exhibited the most potent effect against the HCT-116 and SW480 cells with IC50 values of 0.89 and 1.15 μM, respectively. Furthermore, all of the (R)-configured acyclic nucleoside derivatives displayed more potent anticancer activity compared to their (S)-counterparts. Mechanistic studies revealed that compound 9b triggered apoptosis in the cancer cell lines via depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane and effectively inhibited colony formation. Importantly, compound 9b inhibited the growth of the SW480 xenograft in a mouse model with low systemic toxicity. These results indicated that acyclic nucleoside compounds are viable as potent and effective anticancer agents, and compound 9b may serve as a promising lead compound that merits further attention in future anticancer drug discovery.
Iridium-Catalyzed Regioselective Hydroalkynylation of Internal Alkenes Directed by an Oxime
Gao, Peng-Chao,Li, Bi-Jie,Wang, Zi-Xuan
, p. 9500 - 9504 (2021/12/14)
We report here an iridium-catalyzed hydroalkynylation of allylic alcohols protected by an oxime group. Catalytic alkynylation occurs exclusively at the distal position of the alkene. This method generates γ-alkynyl alcohol oximes directly from internal alkenes and terminal alkynes. The oxime group can be readily removed to afford a free alcohol, thus providing an indirect route for the catalytic hydroalkynylation of allylic alcohols.

A gold(I)-catalyzed enantioselective thioallylation of propiolates with allyl sulfides is described. The key mechanistic element is a sulfonium-induced Claisen rearrangement which helps minimize the allyl dissociation and render higher enantioselectivity. This protocol features remarkable scope of the allyl moiety, allowing enantiocontrolled synthesis of all-carbon quaternary centers, and exhibits exceptional functional group compatibility with many Lewis bases and π-bonds. This intermolecular variant of Claisen rearrangement forges both C-S and C-C bonds concomitantly, providing efficient access to interesting optically active organosulfur compounds which can be transformed further through the vinyl sulfide as a functional handle. The rate of the reaction was zeroth order with respect to allyl sulfides, which suggested a reversible inhibition, providing a resting state for the catalyst. The Hammett plot displayed a correlation with σp values, suggesting a turnover-limiting sigmatropic rearrangement where decreased electron-density on sulfur accelerated the rearrangement.

In contrast to methyl and isobutyl phenyl sulfone, condensing under basic conditions higher alkyl sulfones and trans-2,3-epoxy-butanol 13c (or its O-benzyl and O-silyl derivatives) proved unfeasible, a difficulty that was overcome by using mono ethers of trans-2,3-epoxy-butane-1,4-diol 35c as the electrophilic reagents. Thus, adding excess BuLi to a mixture of the benzyl ether 35b and sulfone ent-12a, a stereodiad sulfone prepared in pure state from the R-Roche ester, via the O-trityloxy-sulfone ent-12c (X-ray), gave, after elimination by column chromatography of the side-formed regioisomer, a diolsulfone that was next converted to sulfone 20 by means of conventional functional-group modifications. Reacting like-wise this sulfone with the parent O-PMB derivative 35a, and then proceeding to the same purification process and function adjustment, delivered the title fragment in virtually pure state.
Total Synthesis of Ovafolinins A and B: Unique Polycyclic Benzoxepin Lignans through a Cascade Cyclization
Davidson, Samuel J.,Barker, David
, p. 9483 - 9486 (2017/08/01)
Ovafolinins A and B, isolated from Lyonia ovalifolia var. elliptica, are lignans that contain a unique bridged structure containing a penta- and tetracyclic benzoxepin and an aryl tetralin. We report the first total synthesis of these natural products in which an acyl-Claisen rearrangement was initially utilized to construct the lignan backbone with correct relative stereochemistry. Judicious use of a bulky protecting group placed reactive moieties in the correct orientation, thereby resulting in a cascade reaction to form the bridged benzoxepin/aryl tetralin from a linear precursor in a single step. Modification of this route allowed the enantioselective synthesis of (+)-ovafolinins A and B, which confirmed the absolute stereochemistry, and comparison of optical rotation suggests that these compounds are found as scalemic mixtures in nature.
Total synthesis of (-)-bicubebin A, B, (+)-bicubebin C and structural reassignment of (-)-cis-cubebin
Davidson, Samuel J.,Pearce, A. Norrie,Copp, Brent R.,Barker, David
, p. 5368 - 5371 (2017/11/06)
The first total synthesis of (-)-bicubebin A, and two previously unreported dilignans, (-)-bicubebin B and (+)-bicubebin C has been achieved through the dimerization of (-)-cubebin, confirming the structure and absolute stereochemistry of (-)-bicubebin A. Analysis of the data for (-)-bicubebin B showed it matched that of reported compound (-)-cis-cubebin. The NMR data of the subsequently synthesized proposed structure of cis-cubebin confirmed that its original proposed structure was incorrect.

The streamlined catalytic access to enantiopure allylic amines as valuable precursors towards chiral β- and γ-aminoalcohols as well as α- and β-aminoacids is desirable for industrial purposes. In this article an enantioselective method is described that transforms achiral allylic alcohols and N-tosylisocyanate in a single step into highly enantioenriched N-tosyl protected allylic amines via an allylic carbamate intermediate. The latter is likely to undergo a cyclisation-induced [3,3]-rearrangement catalysed by a planar chiral pentaphenylferrocene palladacycle in cooperation with a tertiary amine base. The otherwise often indispensable activation of palladacycle catalysts by a silver salt is not required in the present case and there is also no need for an inert gas atmosphere. To further improve the synthetic value, the rearrangement was used to form dimethylaminosulfonyl-protected allylic amines, which can be deprotected under non-reductive conditions.
Synthesis of Novel C-Pivot Lariat 18-Crown-6 Ethers and Their Efficient Purification
Jana, Susovan,Suresh, Vallabh,Lepore, Salvatore D.
, p. 1977 - 1980 (2015/09/01)
The syntheses of various lariat ethers including several not previously reported and their efficient purification are presented. The synthesis route brings together reactions from a variety of previous works leading to a robust and generalized approach to these C-pivot lariats. The main steps are condensation of functionalized diols with pentaethylene glycol ditosylate in the presence of potassium as a templating cation. Purification of the final products was achieved without chromatography by extracting from an aqueous potassium hydroxide solution.
Highly efficient preparation of selectively isotope cluster-labeled long chain fatty acids via two consecutive Csp3-Csp3 cross-coupling reactions

An efficient synthesis involving two copper-catalyzed alkyl-alkyl coupling reactions has been designed to easily access doubly isotope-labeled fatty acids. Such NMR- and IR-active compounds were obtained in excellent overall yields and will be further used for determining the conformation of an alkyl chain of lipidic biomolecules upon interaction with proteins.
Asymmetric cascade reaction to allylic sulfonamides from allylic alcohols by palladium(II)/base-catalyzed rearrangement of allylic carbamates

A regio- and enantioselective tandem reaction is reported capable of directly transforming readily accessible achiral allylic alcohols into chiral sulfonyl-protected allylic amines. The reaction is catalyzed by the cooperative action of a chiral ferrocene palladacycle and a tertiary amine base and combines high step-economy with operational simplicity (e.g. no need for inert-gas atmosphere or catalyst activation). Mechanistic studies support a Pd II-catalyzed [3,3] rearrangement of allylic carbamates - generated in situ from the allylic alcohol and an isocyanate - as the key step, which is followed by a decarboxylation.
