Abstract
A ligand exchange of one of the acetonitrile ligands of the (acetonitrile)4Ru(II)-phenyloxazoline complex (Ru(II)-Pheox) by pyridine was demonstrated, and the location of the exchange reaction was examined by density functional theory (DFT) calculations to study the mechanism of its catalytic asymmetric reactions. The acetonitrile was smoothly exchanged with a pyridine to afford the corresponding (pyridine)(acetonitrile)3Ru(II)-Pheox complex with a trans orientation (C-Ru-N(pyridine)) in a quantitative yield, and the complex was analyzed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. DFT calculations indicated that the most eliminable acetonitrile is the trans group, which is consistent with the X-ray analysis. The direction of the ligand exchange is thus determined on the basis of the energy gap of the ligand elimination instead of the stability of the metal complex. These results suggested that a reactant in a Ru-Pheox-catalyzed reaction should approach trans to the C-Ru bond to generate chirality on the Ru center.

Abstract
The mechanism of the copper(I)-catalyzed cyclopropanation reaction for methyl diazoacetate with both (Z)- and (E)-but-2-ene stereoisomers has been studied using the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set by means of M06-2X and O3LYP functionals. According to both methods, the rate-limiting step is the formation of a copper-carbene intermediate, formed by association between methyl diazoacetate and bis(acetonitrile)-copper(I) ion with the concomitant extrusion of dinitrogen. Cis/trans diastereoselectivity for the cyclopropanation reaction of a 1,2-disubstituted alkene ((Z)-but-2-ene) has been theoretically studied for the first time through the proper location of transition states on the potential-energy surface with the O3LYP method, since no transition structures could be found with the M06-2X functional due to the extreme flatness of the potential-energy surface. The calculated stereoselectivities involving two acetonitrile ligands or one dichloromethane molecule show qualitative agreement with experimental data. This study allows attributing the origin of the selectivity to steric interactions between the ligands of the catalyst system and the olefin substituents. The comparison between the corresponding activation barriers for the direct insertion step shows a higher reactivity for the Z stereoisomer of but-2-ene, consistently with the larger reactant destabilization through steric interactions.

Abstract
Through the design of a second generation of more reactive 7-substituted 1,3,5-cycloheptatrienes, a room-temperature gold(I)-catalyzed retro-Buchner-cyclopropanation sequence and the first zinc(II)-catalyzed version of this process, which uses inexpensive ZnBr2 as catalyst, have been developed. This led to a broad-scope cyclopropanation of both activated and unactivated alkenes, including late-stage derivatization of biologically relevant compounds, and to the total synthesis of (±)-lactobacillic acid.

Abstract
A diastereoselective, Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of geminal bis(boryl)cyclopropanes has been developed. The reaction offers a highly modular approach to the synthesis of tertiary cyclopropylboronic esters. The resulting boronic esters may be further functionalized to afford a range of gem-disubstituted cyclopropanes, which represent an important structural motif in the pharmaceutical industry. Sequential Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of gem-bis(boryl)cyclopropanes are also reported. The coupling protocols are compatible with a broad range of functionalized aryl and heteroaryl bromides.

Abstract
Carbene transfer reactions are very important transformations in organic synthesis, allowing the generation of structurally challenging products by catalysed cyclopropanation, cyclopropenation, carbene C-H, N-H, O-H, S-H, and Si-H insertion, and olefination of carbonyl compounds. In particular, chiral and achiral metalloporphyrins have been successfully explored as biomimetic catalysts for these carbene transfer reactions under both homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions. In this work the use of synthetic metalloporphyrins (MPorph, M = Fe, Ru, Os, Co, Rh, Ir, Sn) as homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysts for carbene transfer reactions in the last years is reviewed, almost exclusively focused on the literature since the year 2010, except when reference to older publications was deemed to be crucial.

Abstract
![]()
Catalytic carbene
transfer to olefins is a useful approach to synthesize
cyclopropanes, which are key structural motifs in many drugs and biologically
active natural products. While catalytic methods for olefin cyclopropanation
have largely relied on rare transition-metal-based catalysts, recent
studies have demonstrated the promise and synthetic value of iron-based
heme-containing proteins for promoting these reactions with excellent
catalytic activity and selectivity. Despite this progress, the mechanism
of iron-porphyrin and hemoprotein-catalyzed olefin cyclopropanation
has remained largely unknown. Using a combination of quantum chemical
calculations and experimental mechanistic analyses, the present study
shows for the first time that the increasingly useful C=C functionalizations
mediated by heme carbenes feature an FeII-based, nonradical,
concerted nonsynchronous mechanism, with early transition state character.
This mechanism differs from the FeIV-based, radical, stepwise
mechanism of heme-dependent monooxygenases. Furthermore, the effects
of the carbene substituent, metal coordinating axial ligand, and porphyrin
substituent on the reactivity of the heme carbenes was systematically
investigated, providing a basis for explaining experimental reactivity
results and defining strategies for future catalyst development. Our
results especially suggest the potential value of electron-deficient
porphyrin ligands for increasing the electrophilicity and thus the
reactivity of the heme carbene. Metal-free reactions were also studied
to reveal temperature and carbene substituent effects on catalytic
vs noncatalytic reactions. This study sheds new light into the mechanism
of iron-porphyrin and hemoprotein-catalyzed cyclopropanation reactions
and it is expected to facilitate future efforts toward sustainable
carbene transfer catalysis using these systems.

Abstract
The use of carbonyl-stabilized ammonium- and sulfonium ylides allows for the synthesis of highly-functionalized trifluoroacetyl-substituted cyclopropanes. It turned out that the diastereoselectivities strongly depend on the nature of the chosen ylide and the employed base. The products could be obtained in good yields under operationally simple conditions.

Nat Commun 2018; 9:227. [PMID: 29335407 PMCID: PMC5768789 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-017-02231-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2017] [Accepted: 11/14/2017] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The development of a general catalytic method for the direct and stereoselective construction of cyclopropanes bearing highly congested vicinal all-carbon quaternary stereocenters remains a formidable challenge in chemical synthesis. Here, we report an intramolecular radical cyclopropanation of unactivated alkenes with simple α-methylene group of aldehydes as C1 source via a Cu(I)/secondary amine cooperative catalyst, which enables the single-step construction of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane skeletons with excellent efficiency, broad substrate scope covering various terminal, internal alkenes as well as diverse (hetero)aromatic, alkenyl, alkyl-substituted geminal alkenes. Moreover, this reaction has been successfully realized to an asymmetric transformation, providing an attractive approach for the construction of enantioenriched bicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes bearing two crucial vicinal all-carbon quaternary stereocenters with good to excellent enantioselectivity. The utility of this method is illustrated by facile transformations of the products into various useful chiral synthetic intermediates. Preliminary mechanistic studies support a stepwise radical process for this formal [2 + 1] cycloaddition.

Abstract
A [ i-PrPDI]CoBr2 complex (PDI = pyridine-diimine) catalyzes Simmons-Smith-type reductive cyclopropanation reactions using CH2Br2 in combination with Zn. In contrast to its non-catalytic variant, the cobalt-catalyzed cyclopropanation is capable of discriminating between alkenes of similar electronic properties based on their substitution patterns: monosubstituted > 1,1-disubstituted > (Z)-1,2-disubstituted > (E)-1,2-disubstituted > trisubstituted. This property enables synthetically useful yields to be achieved for the monocyclopropanation of polyalkene substrates, including terpene derivatives and conjugated 1,3-dienes. Mechanistic studies implicate a carbenoid species containing both Co and Zn as the catalytically relevant methylene transfer agent.

Abstract
A new approach towards the synthesis of multisubstituted thiophenes is elaborated based on Rh(II)-catalyzed domino reactions of acyclic diazoesters with α-cyanothioacetamides. It provides a way for the preparation of 5-amino-3-(alkoxycarbonylamino)thiophene-2-carboxylates, 2-(5-amino-2-methoxycarbonylthiophene-3-yl)aminomalonates and (2-cyano-5-aminothiophene-3-yl)carbamates with the preparative yields of up to 67%. It was also shown that α-cyanothioacetamides easily interact with dirhodium carboxylates to give rather stable 2:1 complexes, resulting in an evident decrease in the efficiency of the catalytic process at moderate temperatures (20–30 °C).

Abstract
The combination of diiodomethylboronate ester, CrCl2 with TMEDA promoted borylcyclopropanation of unactivated alkenes under mild conditions. Compared with the typical Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation, the current protocol offers the following advantages: (1) the reaction proceeds stereoselectively with disubstituted alkenes even without hydroxy or alkoxy groups; (2) both electron-rich and electron-deficient alkenes can be applicable; and (3) the reaction does not require potentially flammable alkylzinc. These unique reactivity features result from the steric and electronic nature of the gem-dichromiomethane intermediates.

Abstract
Myoglobin has recently emerged as a promising biocatalyst for catalyzing carbene-mediated cyclopropanation, a synthetically valuable transformation not found in nature. Having naturally evolved for binding dioxygen, the carbene transferase activity of this metalloprotein is severely inhibited by it, imposing the need for strictly anaerobic conditions to conduct these reactions. In this report, we describe how substitution of the native heme cofactor with an iron-chlorin e6 complex enabled the development of a biocatalyst capable of promoting the cyclopropanation of vinylarenes with high catalytic efficiency (up to 6,970 TON), turnover rate (>2,000 turnovers/min), and stereoselectivity (up to 99% de and ee) in the presence of oxygen. The artificial metalloenzyme can be recombinantly expressed in bacterial cells, enabling its application also in the context of whole-cell biotransformations. This work makes available a robust and easy-to-use oxygen-tolerant biocatalyst for asymmetric cyclopropanations and demonstrates the value of porphyrin ligand substitution as a strategy for tuning and enhancing the catalytic properties of hemoproteins in the context of abiological reactions.

Abstract
Stabilization by a silyl group on the methylene carbon and a diamine ligand led to the isolation of gem-dichromiomethane species. X-ray crystallography confirmed the identity of the structure of this rare example of reactive gem-dimetalloalkane species. The isolated gem-dichromiomethane complex acted as a storable silylmethylidene carbene equivalent, with reactivity that could be changed dramatically upon addition of a Lewis acid (ZnCl2) and a base (TMEDA) to promote both silylalkylidenation of polar aldehydes and silylcyclopropanation of nonpolar alkenes. Identification of a key reactive species also identified the catalytic version of these transformations and provided insights into the reaction mechanism. In contrast to Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation, the real reactive species for the current cyclopropanation was a chromiocarbene species, not a chromium carbenoid species.

Abstract
Cyclopropanes provide important design elements in medicinal chemistry and are widely present in drug compounds. Here we describe a strategy and extensive synthetic studies for the preparation of a diverse collection of cyclopropane-containing lead-like compounds, fragments and building blocks exploiting a single precursor. The bifunctional cyclopropane (E/Z)-ethyl 2-(phenylsulfanyl)-cyclopropane-1-carboxylate was designed to allow derivatization through the ester and sulfide functionalities to topologically varied compounds designed to fit in desirable chemical space for drug discovery. A cobalt-catalyzed cyclopropanation of phenyl vinyl sulfide affords these scaffolds on multigram scale. Divergent, orthogonal derivatization is achieved through hydrolysis, reduction, amidation and oxidation reactions as well as sulfoxide-magnesium exchange/functionalization. The cyclopropyl Grignard reagent formed from sulfoxide exchange is stable at 0 °C for > 2 h, which enables trapping with various electrophiles and Pd-catalyzed Negishi cross-coupling reactions. The library prepared, as well as a further virtual elaboration, is analyzed against parameters of lipophilicity (ALog P), MW and molecular shape by using the LLAMA (Lead-Likeness and Molecular Analysis) software, to illustrate the success in generating lead-like compounds and fragments.

Abstract
A novel series of 3-ketolithocholic acid derivatives as well as estrone derivatives bearing a small ring for the conformational fixation of the side chain were synthesized by using a catalytic [2+2] cycloaddition and a ring-contraction rearrangement. The steroidal derivatives were evaluated for transcriptional activation of vitamin D receptor by luciferase reporter assays. Among them, two estrone derivatives showed a higher efficacy of the transactivation of vitamin D receptor than 3-ketolithocholic acid, and the small ring moieties were found to be important for the efficacy.

Abstract
Helical poly(quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)s copolymers PQXbpy consisting of a coordinating unit, which bears a varied achiral, substituted 2,2'-bipyridyl pendant, and a chiral unit bearing chiral side chains were synthesized and used as a ligand in copper-catalyzed asymmetric cyclopropanation of olefins with diazoacetates, giving up to 91:9 er with high chemical yield. The enantioselection relied on the helical structure of PQXbpy. A single PQXbpy afforded either of a pair of enantiomers with high enantioselectivity by switching its helical sense by changing the reaction solvent from pure toluene to a 3/1 mixture of toluene and 1,1,2-trichloroethane.

Abstract
γ-Butenolides, γ-butyrolactones, and derivatives, especially in enantiomerically pure form, constitute the structural core of numerous natural products which display an impressive range of biological activities which are important for the development of novel physiological and therapeutic agents. Furthermore, optically active γ-butenolides and γ-butyrolactones serve also as a prominent class of chiral building blocks for the synthesis of diverse biological active compounds and complex molecules. Taking into account the varying biological activity profiles and wide-ranging structural diversity of the optically active γ-butenolide or γ-butyrolactone structure, the development of asymmetric synthetic strategies for assembling such challenging scaffolds has attracted major attention from synthetic chemists in the past decade. This review offers an overview of the different enantioselective synthesis of γ-butenolides and γ-butyrolactones which employ catalytic amounts of metal complexes or organocatalysts, with emphasis focused on the mechanistic issues that account for the observed stereocontrol of the representative reactions, as well as practical applications and synthetic potentials.

Abstract
Under the conditions of nickel(0) catalysis, enantiomerically enriched vinyl dioxanones engage boroxines or B2(pin)2 in stereospecific cross-coupling to form diverse tetrasubstituted cyclopropanes bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. The collective data corroborate a mechanism involving nickel(0)-mediated benzylic oxidative addition with inversion of stereochemistry followed by reversible olefin insertion to form a (cyclopropylcarbinyl)nickel complex, which upon reductive elimination releases the cyclopropane.

Abstract
Engineered myoglobins have recently emerged as promising scaffolds for catalyzing carbene-mediated transformations. In this work, we investigated the effect of altering the metal center and its first-sphere coordination environment on the carbene transfer reactivity of myoglobin. To this end, we first established an efficient protocol for the recombinant expression of myoglobin variants incorporating metalloporphyrins with non-native metals, including second- and third-row transition metals (ruthenium, rhodium, iridium). Characterization of the cofactor-substituted myoglobin variants across three different carbene transfer reactions (cyclopropanation, N-H insertion, S-H insertion) revealed a major influence of the nature of metal center, its oxidation state and first-sphere coordination environment on the catalytic activity, stereoselectivity, and/or oxygen tolerance of these artificial metalloenzymes. In addition, myoglobin variants incorporating manganese- or cobalt-porphyrins were found capable of catalyzing an intermolecular carbene C-H insertion reaction involving phthalan and ethyl α-diazoacetate, a reaction not supported by iron-based myoglobins and previously accessed only using iridium-based (bio)catalysts. These studies demonstrate how modification of the metalloporphyrin cofactor environment provides a viable and promising strategy to enhance the catalytic properties and extend the reaction scope of myoglobin-based carbene transfer catalysts.
