Herein, we developed a simple iron-catalyzed system for the α-alkenylation of ketones using primary alcohols. Such acceptor-less dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) of alcohols resulted in the synthesis of a series of important α,β-unsaturated functionalized ketones, having aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl, nitro, nitrile and trifluoro-methyl, as well as halogen moieties, with excellent yields and selectivity. Initial mechanistic studies, including deuterium labeling experiments, determination of rate and order of the reaction, and quantitative determination of H2 gas, were performed. The overall transformations produce water and dihydrogen as byproducts.

A series of organoantimony(iii) halide complexes with a tetrahydrodibenzo[c,f][1,5]azastibocine framework were synthesized and employed as water tolerant Lewis acid catalysts. The results of a systematic structure-activity relationship study demonstrated that the strength of N→Sb donor-acceptor interaction could be synergistically modulated by tuning the properties of the nitrogen substituents and halogen atoms adjacent to the central antimony atom, and consequently resulted in distinct catalytic performances towards organic reactions such as Mannich, cross-condensation, cyclization-aromatization and epoxide aminolysis reaction. The fluorinated organoantimony(iii) derivatives were found to be more active than those of the chlorinated, brominated and iodinated analogues, owing to the use of an Sb-F moiety as a hydrogen bond acceptor. By comparison, the compound 6-cyclohexyl-12-fluoro-5,6,7,12-tetrahydrodibenzo[c,f][1,5] azastibocine (1d) is found to exhibit the highest catalytic activity, together with facile reusability in scale enlarged synthesis.

Bovine serum albumin (BSA) catalyses the cross aldol condensation and proved to be catalytically active at mild temperature and in ethanol, a cheap and green solvent, contrasting with the strong or expensive reaction media usually employed for this reaction. We herein report the reaction of a set of ketones (butanone, 3-pentanone, cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone) with benzaldehyde and p-nitrobenzaldehyde which provided high conversions (77–95%) of the corresponding enones (isolated in a range of yields from 19% to 74%). Parameters assayed to achieve these conversion values were solvent, ketone/aldehyde molar ratio and temperature. In this procedure only cyclohexanone gave the bis-enone, by-product of the conventional aldol condensation, in low amount even at high benzaldehyde/cyclohexanone molar excess. Under the assayed conditions null or low ketol amounts were observed, except for the reaction of cyclopentanone and p-nitrobenzaldehyde. Moreover, kinetic data of BSA-catalysed aldol condensation of cyclohexanone and p-nitrobenzaldehyde suggest an ordered bi bi mechanism for enone formation; an enamine mechanism involving residues of the catalytic cavity exhibiting abnormal pKa values is also proposed.

The highly efficient and chemoselective α,α′-bis-substitution of alkanones is important in organic synthesis. Herein, a dimeric titanium cluster, Ti2Cl2(OPri)6·2HOPri (Ti2), is used in the Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction, for the selectively activation of symmetrical ketones containing α,α′-methylene groups and production of α,α′-bis-substituted alkanones in high efficiency and chemoselectivity. The high efficiency and chemoselectivity can be extended to a variety of typical alkanones and aromatic aldehydes. Both of the oxo-bridged dimeric motif of Ti2 and the ionic Ti-Cl bond are responsible for the high efficiency and chemoselectivity.

The Nazarov cyclization of divinyl ketones with an ester at the β-position was examined with particular reference to where the cyclic double bond forms. We observed unprecedented regioselectivity, dictated by the subtle substitution patterns at the α-position and alkene geometry of α,β and mostly, this selectivity is regardless of substitutions at α′- and β′-positions. The major implications of these observations are an aromatic group at the α-position with E-olefin geometry provides a cyclopentenone in which the double bond is not in conjugation with an ester, whereas Z-olefin provides a cyclopentenone in which the double bond is in conjugation with an ester; and divinyl ketones bearing an ester group at the β-position and an alkyl group at the α-position with E-olefin geometry provide a cyclopentenone in which the double bond is in conjugation with the ester.
Bioreduction of α-Acetoxymethyl Enones: Proposal for an SN2′ Mechanism Catalyzed by Enereductase

(Z)-3-Acetoxymethyl-4-R-3-buten-2-ones (R=aryl, alkyl) and (Z)-3-methyl-4-R-3-buten-2-ones (R=aryl) were synthesized and submitted to reduction by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae producing the (R)- and (S)-4-R-3-methybutan-2-ones, respectively. This stereochemistry control strategy was applied in the syntheses of (R)- and (S)-Tropional with moderate to high enantiomeric excesses. Other (Z)-3-acyloxymethyl-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones showed similar behavior to the (Z)-3-acetoxymethyl counterpart, and the acylated Morita–Baylis–Hillman adduct 1-acetoxy-2-methylene-1-phenylbutan-3-one produced a mixture of products, with and without the acetoxy group, via three different reaction pathways. In addition to experiments employing whole cells, those in which isolated enereductases were used suggested that the main pathway through which the loss of the acetoxy group occurs during the biocatalytic cascade is an SN2′-type reaction, rather than formal hydrogen addition followed by acetic acid elimination. Finally, related ethyl enones were reduced enantioselectively by the yeast Candida albicans, producing both (R)- and (S)-reduction products, depending on the presence of the acetoxy group in the starting material.

The ene-reductases mediated bioreduction of a selection of open-chain α-alkyl-β-aryl enones afforded the corresponding saturated α-chiral ketones in high yield and optical purity in several cases. The stereo-electronic requirements of the reaction have been investigated, considering the nature and location of substituents on the aromatic ring as well as the steric hindrance at the α-position and adjacent to the carbonyl functionality. The general considerations drawn allow us to guide the design of α,β-unsaturated ketones to be employed as substrates of ene-reductases in future preparative applications. An interesting case of orthogonality between enzyme-based and substrate-based stereocontrol within the highly homologous ene-reductases from Saccharomyces species (OYE1-3) has been reported and rationalized with the help of computational docking studies. Furthermore, to demonstrate the synthetic versatility of the reaction, the key chiral precursors of biologically active compounds such as (2′R)- stenusines and (S)-iopanoic acid were obtained. The very robust protocol allowed us to run the reactions on preparative scale in quantitative yields, with a simple work-up and no chromatographic purification steps.

experimental part, p. 228 - 234 (2012/06/01)
The development of efficient and selective transformations is crucial in synthetic chemistry as it opens new possibilities in the total synthesis of complex molecules. Applying such reactions to the synthesis of ketones is of great importance, as this motif serves as a synthetic handle for the elaboration of numerous organic functionalities. In this context, we report a general and chemoselective method based on an activation/addition sequence on secondary amides allowing the controlled isolation of structurally diverse ketones and ketimines. The generation of a highly electrophilic imidoyl triflate intermediate was found to be pivotal in the observed exceptional functional group tolerance, allowing the facile addition of readily available Grignard and diorganozinc reagents to amides, and avoiding commonly observed over-addition or reduction side reactions. The methodology has been applied to the formal synthesis of analogues of the antineoplastic agent Bexarotene and to the rapid and efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical diketones in a one-pot procedure.
