An Enantioselective Aminocatalytic Cascade Reaction Affording Bioactive Hexahydroazulene Scaffolds. Chemistry 2024:e202401156. [PMID: 38564298 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202401156] [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: 03/24/2024] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
A novel cascade reaction initiated by an enantioselective aminocatalysed 1,3-dipolar [6+4] cycloaddition between catalytically generated trienamines and 3-oxidopyridinium betaines is presented. The [6+4] cycloadduct spontaneously undergoes an intramolecular enamine-mediated aldol, hydrolysis, and E1cb sequence, which ultimately affords a chiral hexahydroazulene framework. In this process, three new C-C bonds and three new stereocenters are formed, enabled by a formal unfolding of the pyridine moiety from the dipolar reagent. The hexahydroazulenes are formed with excellent diastereo-, regio- and periselectivity (>20 : 1), up to 96 % ee, and yields up to 52 %. Synthetic elaborations of this scaffold were performed, providing access to a variety of functionalised hydroazulene compounds, of which some were found to display biological activity in U-2OS osteosarcoma cells in cell painting assays.

Abstract
Herein, we have disclosed a rare example of an intramolecular doubly vinylogous Michael addition (DVMA). The reaction design exploits the innate reactivity of ortho-heteroatom substituted para-quinone methide (p-QM) derivatives. The sequential reaction of p-QMs and activated allyl halides proceeds through heteroatom-allylation, DVMA and oxidation to furnish a diverse range of 2-alkenyl benzofuran and 2-alkenyl indole derivatives in high yields.

Abstract
The principle of vinylogy states that the electronic effects of a functional group in a molecule are possibly transmitted to a distal position through interposed conjugated multiple bonds. As an emblematic case, the nucleophilic character of a π-extended enolate-type chain system may be relayed from the legitimate α-site to the vinylogous γ, ε, ..., ω remote carbon sites along the chain, provided that suitable HOMO-raising strategies are adopted to transform the unsaturated pronucleophilic precursors into the reactive polyenolate species. On the other hand, when "unnatural" carbonyl ipso-sites are activated as nucleophiles (umpolung), vinylogation extends the nucleophilic character to "unnatural" β, δ, ... remote sites. Merging the principle of vinylogy with activation modalities and concepts such as iminium ion/enamine organocatalysis, NHC-organocatalysis, cooperative organo/metal catalysis, bifunctional organocatalysis, dicyanoalkylidene activation, and organocascade reactions represents an impressive step forward for all vinylogous transformations. This review article celebrates this evolutionary progress, by collecting, comparing, and critically describing the achievements made over the nine year period 2010-2018, in the generation of vinylogous enolate-type donor substrates and their use in chemical synthesis.

Abstract
![]()
In this work, the
first application of 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitroisoxazole as a vinylogous
pronucleophile in the allylic–allylic alkylation of Morita–Baylis–Hillman
(MBH) carbonates is described. The reaction has been realized under
nucleophilic catalysis conditions with dimeric cinchona alkaloids,
providing excellent enantiocontrol of the process. The usefulness
of the products thus obtained has been confirmed in selected chemoselective
reactions. The most important one involves the transformation of the
isoxazole moiety into a carboxylic acid group, thus opening access
to dicarboxylic acid derivatives.

Abstract
A remote stereocontrolled 1,8-conjugate addition of thiazolones to propargylic aza-p-quinone methides formed from propargylic alcohols has been developed with the aid of a chiral phosphoric acid, and this represents the first report on organocatalytic stereocontrolled 1,8-addition of propargylic aza-p-quinone methides. Notably, the remote stereocontrolled activation protocol enables the construction of vicinal sulfur-containing quaternary carbon stereocenters and axially chiral tetrasubstituted allenes and promotes the chemistry of chiral phosphoric acids.

Abstract
A new strategy for a direct α,β,γ-functionalization of the γ-lactone framework in the corresponding 5-alkylidenefuran-2(5 H)-ones is reported. The developed approach is based on a stereocontrolled cascade reaction with 2-mercaptocarbonyl compounds proceeding in a sequence of thia-Michael/aldol/oxa-Michael reactions. Such a synthetic strategy allows for a construction of a unique polycyclic architecture containing γ-lactone, tetrahydrofuran, and tetrahydrothiophene ring systems. Excellent enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities have been obtained in the presence of bifunctional catalyst derived from cinchona alkaloids.
