[PMID: 38792168 PMCID: PMC11124216 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29102307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
The cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides to afford versatile and useful cyclic carbonate compounds is a highly investigated method for the nonreductive upcycling of CO2. One of the main focuses of the current research in this area is the discovery of readily available, sustainable, and inexpensive catalysts, and of catalytic methodologies that allow their seamless solvent-free recycling. Water, often regarded as an undesirable pollutant in the cycloaddition process, is progressively emerging as a helpful reaction component. On the one hand, it serves as an inexpensive hydrogen bond donor (HBD) to enhance the performance of ionic compounds; on the other hand, aqueous media allow the development of diverse catalytic protocols that can boost catalytic performance or ease the recycling of molecular catalysts. An overview of the advances in the use of aqueous and biphasic aqueous systems for the cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides is provided in this work along with recommendations for possible future developments.

Abstract
Sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) has emerged as an innovative click chemistry to harness the pivotal connectivity of sulfonyl fluorides. Synthesizing such alkylated S(VI) molecules through a straightforward process is of paramount importance, and their water-compatibility opens the door to a plethora of applications in biorelevant and materials chemistry. Prior aquatic endeavors have primarily focused on delivering catalysts involving ionic mechanisms, studies regarding visible-light photocatalytic transformation are unprecedented. Herein we report an on-water accelerated dearomative aquaphotocatalysis for heterocyclic alkyl SuFEx hubs. Notably, water exerts a pronounced accelerating effect on the [2 + 2] cycloaddition between (hetero)arylated ethenesulfonyl fluorides and inert heteroaromatics. This phenomenon is likely due to the high-pressure-like reactivity amplification at the water-oil interface. Conventional solvents proved totally ineffective, leading to the isomerization of the starting material.

Abstract
Water possesses unique advantages, including abundance, environmental friendliness and mild effects. Undoubtedly, it is an ideal solvent or reagent in chemical syntheses. Water also shows unique abilities in catalytic asymmetric synthesis. It can accelerate reaction rates, improve diastereo- or enantioselectivities, initiate reactions, diversify chemo, diastereo- or enantioselectivities through various effects (hydrophobic, hydrogen bonding, protonation). Several reviews have demonstrated the positive effects of water in asymmetric synthesis. In this review, we summarize water-enabling strategies in the last decade, and focus on advances which reveal how water affects a reaction.

Abstract
This work demonstrates asymmetric synthesis of the GABA derivative (R)-baclofen and a new herbicidal mode-of-action inhibitor (3S,4S)-tetflupyrolimet featuring low loading (0.5 mol%) organocatalytic addition reactions of dithiomalonates to nitrostyrenes under "on water" conditions. Importantly, we observed that increasing the hydrophobicity of the catalyst does not guarantee improved catalytic performance under "on water" conditions and the trends in the catalytic efficiency of different HBD catalysts under "on water" conditions (with hydrophobic additives) align more closely with those observed in pure hydrophobic organic solvents. These findings propose a valuable tip for screening organocatalysts in developing asymmetric hydrogen-bonding catalysis under "on water" conditions.

Abstract
γ-Amino acids and peptides analogues are common constituents of building blocks for numerous biologically active molecules, pharmaceuticals, and natural products. In particular, γ-amino acids are providing with better metabolic stability than α-amino acids. Herein we report a multicomponent carbonylation technology that combines readily available amides, alkenes, and the feedstock gas carbon monoxide to build architecturally complex and functionally diverse γ-amino acid derivatives in a single step by the implementation of radical relay catalysis. This transformation can also be used as a late-stage functionalization strategy to deliver complex, advanced γ-amino acid products for pharmaceutical and other areas.

Abstract
Chiral allylic amines are valuable building blocks for biologically important compounds and natural products. In this study, we present the use of cooperative cation-binding catalysis as an efficient method for synthesizing chiral allylic amines. By utilizing a chiral oligoEG and potassium fluoride as a cation-binding catalyst and base, respectively, a wide range of biologically relevant chiral 2-nitroallylic amines are obtained with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99 % ee) through the organocatalytic asymmetric aza-Henry-like reaction of β-monosubstituted and β,β-disubstituted nitroalkenes with α-amidosulfones as imine precursors. Extensive experimental studies are presented to illustrate plausible mechanisms. Preliminary use of a chiral 2-nitroallylic amine as a Michael acceptor demonstrated its potential application for diversity-oriented synthesis of bioactive compounds.

Abstract
Sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) is recognized as another emerging tool for click chemistry. The preparation of the functionalized alkyl sulfonyl fluorides as key SuFEx hubs via C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond formation is exceptionally challenging. We report herein a new efficient method for accessing alkyl sulfonyl fluorides incorporating γ-geminal dithioester via phosphazene catalysis. The aqueous, neutral organosuperbase catalytic system amplifies the reactivity by taking advantage of the hydrophobic amplification. SuFEx-active products are applied to the click connection of bioactive molecules. Density functional theory studies show that the selective outcome of the product is guided by an ion-pair organosuperbase catalyst assembly that is potentially stabilized by a hydrogen-bonding interaction between the catalyst and the DTM in the C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond-forming transition structure.

Abstract
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) represents one of the most prolific structural units widely used in the design of modern pharmaceuticals. For example, β-substituted GABA derivatives are found in numerous neurological drugs, such as baclofen, phenibut, tolibut, pregabalin, phenylpiracetam, brivaracetam, and rolipram, to mention just a few. In this review, we critically discuss the literature data reported on the preparation of substituted GABA derivatives using the Michael addition reaction as a key synthetic transformation. Special attention is paid to asymmetric methods featuring synthetically useful stereochemical outcomes and operational simplicity.

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed C-C activation has become synthetically valuable; however, it rarely involves single-electron downstream processes. To expand the repertoire of C-C activation, here we describe the discovery of a Rh-catalyzed enantioselective C-C activation involving migration of a sulfonyl radical. This reaction directly transforms cyclobutanones containing a sulfonamide-tethered 1,3-diene moiety into γ-lactams containing a β-quaternary center with excellent enantioselectivity. This unusual process involves cleavage of C-C and N-S bonds and subsequent formation of C-N and C-S bonds. The reaction also exhibits broad functional group tolerance and a good substrate scope. A combined experimental and computational mechanistic study suggested that the reaction goes through a Rh(I)-mediated oxidative addition into the cyclobutanone C-C bond followed by a Rh(III)-triggered N-S bond homolysis and sulfonyl radical migration.

Abstract
A tetrasubstituted carbon atom connected by three sp3 or sp2-carbons with single nitrogen, i.e., the α-tertiary amine (ATA) functional group, is an essential structure of diverse naturally occurring alkaloids and pharmaceuticals. The synthetic approach toward ATA structures is intricate, therefore, a straightforward catalytic method has remained a substantial challenge. Here we show an efficient water-accelerated organocatalytic method to directly access ATA incorporating homoallylic amine structures by exploiting readily accessible general ketones as useful starting material. The synergistic action of a hydrophobic Brønsted acid in combination with a squaramide hydrogen-bonding donor under aqueous condition enabled the facile formation of the desired moiety. The developed exceptionally mild but powerful system facilitated a broad substrate scope, and enabled efficient multi-gram scalability. The α-tertiary amine functional group is an essential structure of diverse naturally occurring alkaloids and pharmaceuticals. Here the authors show an efficient water-accelerated organocatalytic method to access α-tertiary amines incorporating homoallylic amine structures by exploiting ketones as useful starting material.

Abstract
![]()
The
enantioselective total synthesis of madangamine E has been
completed in 30 steps, enabled by a new catalytic and highly enantioselective
desymmetrizing intramolecular Michael addition reaction of a prochiral
ketone to a tethered β,β′-disubstituted
nitroolefin. This key carbon–carbon bond forming reaction efficiently
constructed a chiral bicyclic core in near-perfect enantio- and diastereo-selectivity,
concurrently established three stereogenic centers, including a quaternary
carbon, and proved highly scalable. Furthermore, the pathway and origins
of enantioselectivity in this catalytic cyclization were probed using
density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which revealed the crucial
substrate/catalyst interactions in the enantio-determining step. Following
construction of the bicyclic core, the total synthesis of madangamine
E could be completed, with key steps including a mild one-pot oxidative
lactamization of an amino alcohol, a two-step Z-selective
olefination of a sterically hindered ketone, and ring-closing metatheses
to install the two macrocyclic rings.

Abstract
There is a growing awareness of the underlying power of catalytic reactions in water that is not limited to innate sustainability alone. Some Type III reactions are catalytically accelerated without dissolution of reactants and are occasionally highly selective, as shown by comparison with the corresponding reactions run in organic solvents or under solvent-free conditions. Such catalysts are highly diversified, including hydrophilic, lipophilic, and even solid catalysts. In this Outlook, we highlight the impressive characteristics of illustrative catalysis that is exerted despite the immiscibility of the substrates and reveal the intrinsic benefits of these enigmatic reactions for synthetic organic chemistry, albeit with many details remaining unclear. We hope that this brief introduction to the expanding field of synthetic organic "aquachemistry" will inspire organic chemists to use the platform to invent new transformations.

Abstract
The photoredox-catalyzed α-aminoalkylcarboxylation of aryl allenes with CO2 and N,N-dimethylanilines is reported for the first time (26 examples, up to 96% yield). In the case of electron-deficient allenes, good regioselectivity was observed (up to 94:6), exclusively generating kinetic products over thermodynamic products. This protocol is a novel synthetic method for highly functionalized β,γ-unsaturated γ-aminobutyric esters.

Abstract
Asymmetric access to γ-lactams is achieved via a cyclobutanone ring expansion using widely available (1S,2R)-1-amino-2-indanol for chiral induction. Mechanistic analysis of the key N,O-ketal rearrangement reveals a Curtin-Hammett scenario, which enables a downstream stereoinduction (up to 88:12 dr) and is corroborated by spectroscopic, crystallographic, and computational studies. In combination with an easy deprotection protocol, this operationally simple sequence allows the synthesis of a range of optically pure γ-lactams, including those bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. In addition, the formal synthesis of drug molecules baclofen, brivaracetam, and pregabalin further demonstrates the synthetic utility and highlights the general applicability of the presented method.

Abstract
The effectual utilization of heterogeneous catalysts from nano sources through chemical moderation for the α-aminomethylcarboxylation of alkenes with carbon dioxide and amines is an attractive area to study. Dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS) is a cost-effective, resistant, plenteous, and reproducible source with dandelion-like fibrous anatomy. The present paper is a report on an easy method to provide a family of new DFNS-supported dendritic imidazolium IL/Ru(ii) heterogeneous catalysts DFNS/IL/Ru (1-3) with high ionic density from DFNS. A positive dendritic effect was perceived in the chemical stabilization performance of CO2. DFNS/IL/Ru(ii) was appropriately identified by UV-vis spectroscopy, XPS, SEM, TEM, FT-IR spectroscopy, and TGA. It was discovered that DFNS/IL/Ru(ii) has high catalytic activity for the synthesis of quinoline-2-one through the annulation of ortho-heteroaryl anilines and CO2. DFNS/IL/Ru (3) could be reutilized ten continuous times with no notable reduction in the catalytic activity. Notably, the coveted quinoline-2-one was prepared on a multi-gram scale by deploying DFNS/IL/Ru (3) as a green heterogeneous catalyst. Owing to the attendance of the zwitterionic liquid functional groups on the exterior layer of the bio-based DFNS/IL/Ru (3) catalyst, DFNS/IL/Ru (3) expressed the highest catalytic activity. This approach provides highly functional γ-amino acids in proper yields with great selective power. This paper announces the first nanocatalyst for this transformation, comprising the DFNS-supported Ru N-heterocyclic carbine complex.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective protonation of a prochiral carbanion in water is a common transformation in biological systems, but has been beyond the capability of synthetic chemists since unusually rapid movement of a proton in water leads to uncontrolled racemic protonation. Herein we show a crucial role of water, which enables a highly enantioselective glyoxalase I-mimic catalytic isomerization of hemithioacetals which proceeds via enantioselective protonation of an ene-diol intermediate. The use of on-water condition turns on this otherwise extremely unreactive catalytic reaction as a result of the strengthened hydrogen bonds of water molecules near the hydrophobic reaction mixture. Furthermore, under on-water conditions, especially under biphasic microfluidic on-water conditions, access of bulk water into the enantio-determining transition state is efficiently blocked, consequently enabling the enantioselective introduction of a highly ungovernable proton to a transient enediol intermediate, which mimics the action of enzymes.

Abstract
A highly diastereo- and enantio-selective method for the asymmetric synthesis of molecules containing helicenes and stereogenic axes was developed based on organocatalysis. Various compounds bearing both helical and axial stereogenic elements were obtained in excellent enantioselectivities. The mechanism study revealed that the reaction proceeded through two stages: 1) The first cyclization produces a reaction intermediate containing a stereogenic axis. 2) The dynamic kinetic resolution of helix reaction intermediate following with cyclization generates a helix and another stereogenic axis.

Abstract
Water enables the highly challenging enantioselective Michael addition of sterically congested β-trifluoromethyl-β-aryl- or -alkyl-substituted nitroolefins with dithiomalonates. Under on-water conditions, the reaction rates were remarkably accelerated as a result of enforced hydrophobic interactions between catalysts and reactants. Takemoto-type thiourea catalysts are very effective for this transformation, affording highly enantioenriched Michael adducts that provide simple access to chiral γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) analogues with a β-trifluoromethylated quaternary stereocenter.

Abstract
The preparation of new organocatalysts for asymmetric syntheses has become a key stage of enantioselective catalysis. In particular, the development of new cyclodextrin (CD)-based organocatalysts allowed to perform enantioselective reactions in water and to recycle catalysts. However, only a limited number of organocatalytic moieties and functional groups have been attached to CD scaffolds so far. Cinchona alkaloids are commonly used to catalyze a wide range of enantioselective reactions. Thus, in this study, we report the preparation of new α- and β-CD derivatives monosubstituted with cinchona alkaloids (cinchonine, cinchonidine, quinine and quinidine) on the primary rim through a CuAAC click reaction. Subsequently, permethylated analogs of these cinchona alkaloid-CD derivatives also were synthesized and the catalytic activity of all derivatives was evaluated in several enantioselective reactions, specifically in the asymmetric allylic amination (AAA), which showed a promising enantiomeric excess of up to 75% ee. Furthermore, a new disubstituted α-CD catalyst was prepared as a pure AD regioisomer and also tested in the AAA. Our results indicate that (i) the cinchona alkaloid moiety can be successfully attached to CD scaffolds through a CuAAC reaction, (ii) the permethylated cinchona alkaloid-CD catalysts showed better results than the non-methylated CDs analogues in the AAA reaction, (iii) promising enantiomeric excesses are achieved, and (iv) the disubstituted CD derivatives performed similarly to monosubstituted CDs. Therefore, these new CD derivatives with cinchona alkaloids effectively catalyze asymmetric allylic aminations and have the potential to be successfully applied in other enantioselective reactions.

Abstract
The manipulation of the transition states of a chemical process is essential to achieve the desired selectivity. In particular, transition states of chemical reactions can be significantly modified in a confined environment. We report a catalytic reaction with remarkable amplification of stereochemical information in a confined water cage. Surprisingly, this amplification is significantly dependent on droplet size. This water-induced chirality amplification stems from the hydrophobic hydration effects, which ensures high proximity of the catalyst and substrates presumably at the transition state, leading to higher enantioselectivity. Flow and batch reactors were evaluated to confirm the generality of this water-induced chirality amplification. Our observation on efficient chiral induction in confined water cages might lead to an understanding of the chirality amplification in the prebiotic era, which is a key feature for the chemical evolution of homochirality. Confined environments may have a significant influence on the transition state and, consequently, on the stereochemical outcome of a chemical reaction. Here, the authors show a droplet size-dependent chirality amplification effect for two model reactions in confined organic droplets surrounded by water cages.
