Terms modified by Stereoselective Selected AbstractsStereoselective and Enantioselective Syntheses of the Four Stereoisomers of Muscol from (3RS)-MusconeHELVETICA CHIMICA ACTA, Issue 5 2007Yoshifumi Yuasa Abstract Two trans stereoisomers of 3-methylcyclopentadecanol (=muscol), (1R,3R)- 2 and (1S,3S)- 2, were efficiently synthesized from (3RS)-3-methylcyclopentadecanone (=muscone; (3RS)- 1) by a highly stereoselective reduction (Scheme). L-Selectride® (=lithium tri(sec -butyl)borohydride) was used, followed by the enantiomer resolution by lipase QLG (Alcaligenes sp.). The cis stereoisomers of muscol, (1S,3R)- 2 and (1R,3S)- 2, were obtained by the Mitsunobu inversion of (1R,3R)- 2 and (1S,3S)- 2, respectively (Scheme). The absolute configuration of (1R,3R)- 2 was determined by X-ray crystal-structure analysis of its 3-nitrophthalic acid monoester, 2-[(1R,3R)-3-methylcyclopentadecyl hydrogen benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate ((1R,3R)- 3b), and by oxidation of (1R,3R)- 2 to (3R)-muscone.

In a one-pot reaction, ruthenium porphyrins catalyzed the in situ generation of azomethine ylides from ,-diazo esters and imines. Stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of the azomethine ylides with dialkyl azodicarboxylates gave the corresponding 1,2,4-triazolidines in good yields (up to 85,%). Using chiral 8-phenylmenthanol ,-diazo ester as the carbenoid source, chiral 1,2,4-triazolidines have been obtained with good diastereoselectivity (up to 84,% de). Some of the 1,2,4-triazolidines exhibited good cytotoxicity against human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (SUNE1) (IC50=10.4,,M) and human cervical carcinoma (Hela) (IC50=10.7,,M) cell lines.

The use of stabilized cationic intermediates can be considered as a new frontier in the development of stereoselective reactions. An organocatalytic procedure mediated by the MacMillan imidazolidinone catalyst was coupled with an InBr3 -mediated process for the development of a novel stereoselective allylation reaction of aldehydes. Up to 98,% ee and up to 5:1 d.r. were obtained in the process. [source] Studies on Stereoselective [2+2] Cycloadditions between N,N-Dialkylhydrazones and KetenesCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 23 2004Eloísa Martín-Zamora Dr. Abstract Staudinger-like cycloadditions between chiral, non-racemic N,N-dialkylhydrazones 1 and functionalized ketenes constitute an efficient methodology for the stereoselective construction of the ,-lactam ring. The potential for fine tuning of the dialkylamino auxiliary structure, the availability of a high-yielding deprotection method for the release of the free azetidinones, and the high thermal and chemical stability of hydrazones as N-dialkylamino imines are highlighted as the key elements for the success of the strategy. This last aspect is of particular importance concerning generality: even hydrazones from easily enolizable aldehydes or from formaldehyde reacted to afford the corresponding cycloadducts with high chemical and stereochemical yields. The syntheses of the ,-amino-,-hydroxyacids (2R,3S)-phenylisoserine (42) and (2R,3S)-norstatin (45) were accomplished as illustrative examples of the synthetic utility of this procedure. A model system for the cycloaddition of g series auxiliaries was studied by ab initio computational methods. The collected results support a two-step mechanism through zwitterionic intermediates, and explain the observed absolute and relative stereochemistry in terms of the preferred outward cycloaddition to the Re face of the hydrazone. La reacción de cicloadición [2+2] de tipo Staudinger entre cetenas funcionalizadas y las hidrazonas quirales 1 constituye un método eficiente para la construcción estereoselectiva del anillo de azetidinona. La modulación de la estructura del grupo dialquilamino empleado como auxiliar, la disponibilidad de un procedimiento eficiente para la desprotección de las , -lactamas libres y la alta estabilidad química y térmica de las hidrazonas como N-dialquilamino iminas son los puntos clave para el éxito de la estrategia. Este último aspecto es de particular importancia por su implicación en la generalidad del método: hidrazonas derivadas de aldehídos fácilmente enolizables o incluso las derivadas de formaldehído reaccionan para dar lugar a los correspondientes cicloaductos con excelentes rendimientos químicos y estereoquímicos. La síntesis de los , -amino- , -hidroxiácidos (2R,3S)-fenilisoserina (42) y (2R,3S)-norestatina (45) se llevaron a cabo como ejemplos ilustrativos del potencial sintético del método. Estudios computacionales ab initio realizados sobre una reacción modelo basada en los auxiliares de la serie g sugieren un mecanismo en dos pasos a través de intermedios zwitteriónicos. Los resultados obtenidos explican la estereoquímica absoluta y relativa, así como el alto grado de inducción observado para estos auxiliares, por la preferencia de la aproximación "outward" de la cetena sobre la cara Re de la hidrazona. [source] Capillary electrophoretic investigation of the enantioselective metabolism of propafenone by human cytochrome P-450 SUPERSOMES: Evidence for atypical kinetics by CYP2D6 and CYP3A4ELECTROPHORESIS, Issue 8 2006Minoo Afshar Abstract An enantioselective CE method was used to identify the ability of CYP450 enzymes and their stereoselectivity in catalyzing the transformation of propafenone (PPF) to 5-hydroxy-propafenone (5OH-PPF) and N -despropyl-propafenone (NOR-PPF). Using in,vitro incubations with single CYP450 enzymes (SUPERSOMES), 5OH-PPF is shown to be selectively produced by CYP2D6 and N -dealkylation is demonstrated to be mediated by CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP1A2, and CYP1A1. For the elucidation of kinetic aspects of the metabolism with CYP2D6 and CYP3A4, incubations with individual PPF enantiomers and racemic PPF were investigated. With the exception of the dealkylation in presence of R -PPF only, which can be described by the Michaelis,Menten model, all CYP2D6-induced reactions were found to follow autoactivation kinetics. For CYP3A4, all NOR-PPF enantiomer formation rates as function of PPF enantiomer concentration were determined to follow substrate inhibition kinetics. The formation of NOR-PPF by the different enzymes is stereoselective and is reduced significantly when racemic PPF is incubated. Clearance values obtained for CYP3A4 dealkylation are stereoselective whereas those of CYP2D6 hydroxylation are not. This paper reports the first investigation of the PPF hydroxylation and dealkylation kinetics by the CYP2D6 enzyme and represents the first report in which enantioselective CE data provide the complete in,vitro kinetics of metabolic steps of a drug. [source] Reaction of Carboxylic Acids with Isocyanides: A Mechanistic DFT StudyEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 28 2008Tommaso Marcelli Abstract We present a computational investigation of the reaction between isocyanides and carboxylic acids. Our results indicate that this reaction begins with a stereoselective concerted ,-addition of the acid to the isocyanide, leading exclusively to a Z -acyl imidate. Isomerization to the E isomer and successive rate-limiting 1,3 O,N acyl migration yields an N -formyl imide. The calculated barriers are in good agreement with the experimental reaction conditions. Our results might provide an explanation for the peculiar reactivity observed when this reaction is carried out in a self-assembled capsule. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The syntheses proceeded through an efficient stannous chloride-induced deacetalisation,cyclisation procedure. The aza-annulation was stereoselective affording a single stereoisomer having the same relative configuration as in the natural product. The cis ring junction and the cis relationship between 2-H and 8a-H were established by NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Subsequent oxidation occurred at the alkyl group, selectively affording the corresponding C -phenyl- and C -unsubstituted N -glycosylnitrones. C -phenyl- N -glycosylnitrones 10 and 13 underwent highly stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with dimethyl maleate, with the sugar moiety acting as a chiral auxiliary. Final removal of the glycosyl moiety afforded enantiopure enantiomeric isoxazolidines 17 and ent -17 which are oxa-analogues of proline diester derivatives. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Among natural amino acids, all these enzymes prefer bulky hydrophobic residues such as phenylalanine at P2. This holds true for their trypanosomal counterparts: cruzain from Trypanosoma cruzi and congopain from T. congolense. A detailed analysis of the S2 specificity of parasitic proteases was performed to gain information that might be of interest for the design of more selective pseudopeptidyl inhibitors. Nonproteogenic phenylalanyl analogs (Xaa) have been introduced into position P2 of fluorogenic substrates dansyl-Xaa-Arg-Ala-Pro-Trp, and their kinetic constants (Km, kcat/Km) have been determined with congopain and cruzain, and related host cathepsins B and L. Trypanosomal cysteine proteases are poorly stereoselective towards d/l -Phe, the inversion of chirality modifying the efficiency of the reaction but not the Km. Congopain binds cyclohexylalanine better than aromatic Phe derivatives. Another characteristic feature of congopain compared to cruzain and cathepsins B and L was that it could accomodate a phenylglycyl residue (kcat/Km = 1300 mm,1·s,1), while lengthening of the side chain by a methylene group only slightly impaired the specificity constant towards trypanosomal cysteine proteases. Mono- and di-halogenation or nitration of Phe did not affect Km for cathepsin L-like enzymes, but the presence of constrained Phe derivatives prevented a correct fitting into the S2 subsite. A model of congopain has been built to study the fit of Phe analogs within the S2 pocket. Phe analogs adopted a positioning within the S2 pocket similar to that of the Tyr of the cruzain/Z-Tyr-Ala-fluoromethylketone complex. However, cyclohexylalanine has an energetically favorable chair-like conformation and can penetrate deeper into the subsite. Fitting of modeled Phe analogs were in good agreement with kinetic parameters. Furthermore, a linear relationship could be established with logP, supporting the suggestion that fitting into the S2 pocket of trypanosomal cysteine proteases depends on the hydrophobicity of Phe analogs.

This reaction includes two cyanation pathways, syn - and anti -cyanopalladation to alkynes that are activated by Pd(II). High syn -selectivity was observed in the reaction using terminal alkynes that have bulky substituents at a propargyl position and aliphatic internal alkynes. Furthermore, a dramatic acceleration was observed with substrates having an N -arenesulfonyl functionality at a propargyl position, this indicates that both sulfoxide and carbon-carbon triple bond act as Lewis bases to Pd(II).
