The convergent total synthesis of the manzamine alkaloid (−)-nakadomarin A (1) is described. retrosynthetic analysis recognized spirocycle 3, assembled via an organocatalyst-promoted Michael addition/cyclization between bicyclic lactam 4 and furan aldehyde 5, both accessible from achiral starting materials on a multigram scale. Lactam through SN2′/reduction/Staudinger/retro-aza-Claisen sequence After spirocyclization, nakadomarin completed in only six steps.
A scalable synthesis of the SMARCA2 degrading PROTAC 1 was developed. The linker fragment derived from (S)-citronellol by oxidative cleavage and diastereoselective aryl Grignard addition to a N-tert-butanesulfinyl aldimine for generation chiral amine stereocenter one-pot borylation/Suzuki reaction biaryl formation. dipeptide prepared T3P-mediated coupling hydroxyproline benzyl ester N-Boc tert-leucine followed capping with 1-fluorocyclopropancarboxylic acid hydrolysis. Unification binding...
Abstract Herein, we report new reactivity of the conducting polymer, poly-(3,4-ethylenedioxy thiophene) (PEDOT), where PEDOT mediates a Ritter reaction between alcohols and acetonitrile. The yields were variable in most cases competitive with results obtained using sulfuric acid. Attempts at stoichiometric benzonitrile diphenylmethanol are also reported herein. Finally, described here preliminary mechanistic studies that suggest is behaving as an alcohol-selective or specific Lewis...
Copper is involved in the biosynthesis of collagen, however soluble copper salts dissipate quickly and nanoparticles are cytotoxic. Here we added a novel copper-containing nanomaterial (CuHARS) to assess human chondrocyte function presence copper. Human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were also treated as control. Chondrocyte response CuHARS was assessed by chronic treatment (30 ug/ml) followed digital microscopy image analysis cellular features compared normal chondrocytes. Unexpectedly,...
Abstract The efficient copper‐catalyzed construction of imidazopyridinones is described. Beginning from iodopyridinyl ureas, Ullmann coupling provides in good yield. Manufacturing by this process described on 473 kg scale; the scope and limitations substrates also detailed.
