This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction of d3-methylated all-carbon quaternary stereocenters has been successfully developed via carbene-catalyzed desymmetrization of prochiral d3-methylated oxindolyl 1,3-diketones. Three new stereogenic centers were efficiently constructed with satisfactory outcomes. Diverse spiro-polycyclic molecules with a d3-methylated all-carbon quaternary stereocenter were generated in good to excellent yields with good to excellent diastereoselectivities and excellent enantioselectivities. This reaction features a broad substrate scope, good functional-group tolerance, and easy scale-up.

Book Comprehensive Chirality

Download or read book Comprehensive Chirality written by and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2012-12-31 with total page 5635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many books exist on the subject of chiral chemistry, they only briefly cover chiral synthesis and analysis as a minor part of a larger work, to date there are none that pull together the background information and latest advances in one comprehensive reference work. Comprehensive Chirality provides a complete overview of the field, and includes chiral research relevant to synthesis, analytic chemistry, catalysis, and pharmaceuticals. The individual chapters in each of the 9 volumes provide an in depth review and collection of references on definition, technology, applications and a guide/links to the related literature. Whether in an Academic or Corporate setting, these chapters will form an invaluable resource for advanced students/researchers new to an area and those who need further background or answers to a particular problem, particularly in the development of drugs. Chirality research today is a central theme in chemistry and biology and is growing in importance across a number of disciplinary boundaries. These studies do not always share a unique identifying factor or subject themselves to clear and concise definitions. This work unites the different areas of research and allows anyone working or researching in chiral chemistry to navigate through the most essential concepts with ease, saving them time and vastly improving their understanding. The field of chirality counts several journals that are directly and indirectly concerned with the field. There is no reference work that encompasses the entire field and unites the different areas of research through deep foundational reviews. Comprehensive Chirality fills this vacuum, and can be considered the definitive work. It will help users apply context to the diverse journal literature offering and aid them in identifying areas for further research and/or for solving problems. Chief Editors, Hisashi Yamamoto (University of Chicago) and Erick Carreira (ETH Zürich) have assembled an impressive, world-class team of Volume Editors and Contributing Authors. Each chapter has been painstakingly reviewed and checked for consistent high quality. The result is an authoritative overview which ties the literature together and provides the user with a reliable background information and citation resource.

Book Strategies and Tactics in Organic Synthesis

Download or read book Strategies and Tactics in Organic Synthesis written by Michael F. Greaney and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-07-29 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter describes the synthesis of two related sesquiterpenes, anislactone A and merrilactone A. We initially accessed a tetracyclic oxetane in the merrilactone series using a Paternò–Büchi reaction but found the compound to be too underfunctionalized to advance further. We then developed an approach based on reductive epoxide ring opening, whereby a fully elaborated C-ring epoxy-cyclopentane, containing five stereocenters, could undergo reductive epoxide cleavage when treated with Ti(III). The resulting tertiary radical then participates in a 5-exo-dig cyclization onto a pendant alkyne to afford the complete carbon skeleton of both natural products. From this point, orthogonal functionalization routes enabled the synthesis of both anislactone A and merrilactone A. A second-generation merrilactone A synthesis is then described, growing out of discoveries made over the course of the first route in the area of cyclopentannulation. An iodo-aldol method was used to develop an approach to the anislactone skeleton and succeeded in producing the BC bicycle with good stereocontrol and functional group tolerance. Further functionalization, however, did not prove possible due to excessive steric hindrance around the incorporated iodo group preventing any productive transformation. This problem was solved by switching the nucleophile in the tandem-aldol process to cyanide. The resulting domino cyanide-addition aldol cyclization was then successfully employed in the formal synthesis of merrilactone A, using a late-stage [2+2] photocycloaddition to access the D-ring.

Book Copper I  Catalyzed Stereoselective Borylation Reactions

Download or read book Copper I Catalyzed Stereoselective Borylation Reactions written by Yu Ozawa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the development of novel functionalized organoboron compounds and those synthetic methods. High degrees of chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivities of the borylation reactions are attained through catalyst design and optimization. Furthermore, the selectivity-determining mechanisms are analyzed with state-of-the-art DFT and other computational methods. In this book, the author synthesizes some multi-substituted alkenyl and allylic boronates via borylation reactions using a copper(I)/diboron catalyst system. Those compounds contain novel densely substituted and distorted structures, which have not been accessed by other methods. The high stereoselectivities are achieved by the optimization of the catalyst, especially the ligand. Some new ligands are also developed in this book. Furthermore, the derivatization of the borylation products is demonstrated to access the sterically demanding complex molecules. Also, the author performs computational analysis to reveal how the catalyst controls the selectivities. The deep insight into the reaction mechanism provides guides for rational catalyst design for not only copper(I) catalysis but also other transition metal catalysis. Thus, the content should be of interest to academic and industrial scientists in a wide range of areas.
