Catalytic semireduction of internal alkynes to alkenes is very important for organic synthesis. Although great success has been achieved in this area, switchable Z/E stereoselectivity based on a single catalyst for the semireduction of internal alkynes is a longstanding challenge due to the multichemo- and stereoselectivity, especially based on less-expensive earth-abundant metals. Herein, we describe a switchable semireduction of alkynes to (Z)- or (E)-alkenes catalyzed by a dinuclear cobalt complex supported by a macrocyclic bis pyridyl diimine (PDI) ligand. It was found that cis-reduction of the alkyne occurs first and the Z-E alkene stereoisomerization process is formally controlled by the amount of H2O, since the concentration of H2O may influence the catalytic activity of the catalyst for isomerization. Therefore, this protocol provides a facile way to switch to either the (Z)- or (E)-olefin isomer in a single transformation by adjusting the amount of water.

While olefin amination with aminium radical cations is a classical method for C-N bond formation, catalytic variants that utilize simple 2° amine precursors remain largely undeveloped. Herein we report a new visible-light photoredox protocol for the intramolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of aryl olefins that proceeds through catalytically generated aminium radical intermediates. Mechanistic studies are consistent with a process involving amine oxidation via electron transfer, turnover-limiting C-N bond formation, and a second electron transfer step to reduce a carbon-centered radical, rendering the overall process redox-neutral. A range of structurally diverse N-aryl heterocycles can be prepared in good to excellent yields under conditions significantly milder than those required by conventional aminium-based protocols.

Simple, mild, and efficient conditions are reported for a Pd 0-catalyzed Heck reaction that delivers high yields and selectivity for (E)-styrenyl products using electronically nonbiased olefin substrates bearing a range of useful functionality. Preliminary mechanistic studies demonstrate that the σ-donating DMA solvent is crucial for high selectivity. Further studies suggest that the catalyst distinguishes between β-hydrogens on the basis of their relative hydridic character, in contrast to previously reported PdII-catalyzed oxidative reaction conditions.
A highly selective and general palladium catalyst for the oxidative heck reaction of electronically nonbiased olefins
Werner, Erik W.,Sigman, Matthew S.
supporting information; experimental part, p. 13981 - 13983 (2010/12/24)
A general, highly selective oxidative Heck reaction is reported. The reaction is high-yielding under mild conditions without the need for base or high temperatures, and the selectivity is excellent, without the requirement for electronically biased olefins or other specific directing groups. A preliminary mechanistic investigation suggests that the unusually high selectivity may be due to the catalyst's sensitivity to C-H bond strength in the selectivity-determining β-hydride elimination step.

A novel chelate-controlled intermolecular oxidative Heck reaction is reported that proceeds with a wide range of nonresonance stabilized α-olefin substrates and organoboron reagents to afford internal olefin products in good yields and outstanding regio- and E:Z stereoselectivities. Pd-H isomerization, common in many Heck reactions, is not observed under these mild, oxidative conditions. This is evidenced by outstanding E:Z selectivities (>20:1 in all cases examined), no erosion in optical purity for proximal stereogenic centers, and a tolerance for unprotected alcohols. Remarkably, a single metal/ligand combination, Pd/bis-sulfoxide complex 1, catalyzes this reaction over a broad range of coupling partners. Given the high selectivities and broad scope, we anticipate this intermolecular Heck reaction will find heightened use in complex molecule synthesis. Copyright
Development of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the determination of the linear alkylbenzene sulfonates and long-chain sulfophenyl carboxylates using antibodies generated by pseudoheterologous immunization

ELISA methods have been developed for screening contamination of water resources by linear alkyl benzene sulfonates (LAS) or the most immediate degradation products, the long chain sulfophenyl carboxylates, SPCs. The assay uses antibodies raised through pseudoheterologous immunization strategies using an equimolar mixture of two immunogens (SFA-KLH and 13C13-SPC-KLH) prepared by coupling N-(4-alkylpnenyl)sulfonyl-3-aminopropanoic acid (SFA) andp-(1-carboxy-13-tridecyl)-phenylsulfonic acid (13C13-SPC) to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). The immunizing haptens have been designed to address recognition versus two different epitopes of the molecule. The SFA hapten maximizes recognition of the alkyl moiety while preserving the complexity of the different alkyl chains present in the LAS technical mixture. The 13C13-SPC hapten addresses recognition of the common and highly antigenic phenylsulfonic group. The antisera raised using this strategy have been shown to be superior to those obtained through homologous immunization procedures using a single substance. By using an indirect ELISA format, LAS and long-chain SPCs can be detected down to 1.8 and 0.2 μg L-1, respectively. Coefficients of variation of 6 and 12% within and between assays, respectively, demonstrate immunoassay reproducibility. The assay can be used in media with a wide range of pH and ionic strength values. Preliminary experiments performed to assess matrix effects have demonstrated the potential applicability of the method as a screening tool to assess contamination by these types of surfactants in natural water samples.

Photochemical Wolff rearrangements were used to form 5-substituted-4-pentenylketenes 1a-1d (RCH=CHCH2X-CH 2CH=C=O: 1a R = H, X = CH2; 1b R = Ph, X = CH 2; 1c R = c-Pr, X = CH2; 1d R = H, X = O), which were observed by IR at 2121, 2120, 2119, and 2126 cm-1, respectively, as relatively long-lived species at room temperature in hydrocarbon solvents. These reacted with the nitroxyl radical tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl (TEMPO, TO·) forming carboxy-substituted 5-hexenyl radicals 3, which were trapped by a second nitroxyl radical forming 1,2 diaddition products 4a-4d. On thermolysis, 4a-4d underwent reversible reformation of the radicals 3, which underwent cyclization forming cyclopentanecarboxylic acid derivatives 6 or 11 as the major products. However, in the case of 1b, the cyclopentane derivative was formed reversibly and on prolonged reaction times the only product isolated was PhCH=CH-(CH2)4CO2H (8b) from hydrogen transfer to Cβ and cleavage of the TEMPO group. Cyclopropylcarbinyl radical ring opening in the cyclized radical 5c from 1c led to the 2-(4-N-tetramethylpiperidinyloxybut-1-enyl)cyclopentane derivative 11 as the major product. In a test for 5-hexenyl radical ring closure in the radical anion intermediate of the acyloin condensation, the ester CH 2=CH(CH2)3CO2Et (12a) gave the acyloin 13a (76%) as the only observed product, while PhCH=CH(CH 2)3CO2CH3 (12b) with Na in toluene gave 21% of the acyloin product 13b and 42% of 2-benzylcyclopentanol (15) from cyclization of the intermediate radical anion.

Treatment of non-activated alkyl halides 1 with aldehydes 3 in the presence of zinc metal and chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSC1), DMA and/or NMP in THF brought about highly facile and effective cross-coupling to give the corresponding alcohols in good yield. These reactions are assumed to proceed through zinc reagent intermediates generated in situ.
ATP-citrate lyase as a target for hypolipidemic intervention. Design and synthesis of 2-substituted butanedioic acids as novel, potent inhibitors of the enzyme
Gribble, Andrew D.,Dolle, Roland E.,Shaw, Antony,McNair, David,Novelli, Riccardo,Novelli, Christine E.,Slingsby, Brian P.,Shah, Virendra P.,Tew, David,Saxty, Barbara A.,Allen, Mark,Groot, Pieter H.,Pearce, Nigel,Yates, John

ATP-citrate lyase is the primary enzyme responsible for the synthesis of cytosolic acetyl-CoA in many tissues. Inhibitors of the enzyme represent a potentially novel class of hypolipidemic agent, which are anticipated to have combined hypocholesterolemic and hypotriglyceridemic properties. A series of 2-substituted butanedioic acids have been designed and synthesized as inhibitors of the enzyme. The best compounds, 58, 68, 71, 74 have reversible K(i)'s in the 1-3 μM range against the isolated rat enzyme. As representative of this compound class, 58, has been shown to exert its inhibitory action through a mainly competitive mechanism with respect to citrate and a noncompetitive one with respect to CoA. None of the inhibitors were able to inhibit cholesterol and/or fatty acid synthesis in HepG2 cells. This has been attributed to the adverse physicochemical properties of the molecules leading to a lack of cell penetration. Despite this, a lead structural class of compound has been identified with the potential for modification into potent, cell-penetrant, and efficacious inhibitors of ATP- citrate lyase.
