Synthesis of novel symmetrical, single-chain, diacetylene-modified bolaamphiphiles with different alkyl chain lengths
摘要:
General syntheses of novel symmetrical, single-chain, diacetylene-modified bolaphospholipids have been carried out in five steps. For the omega-alkynols, which have an important role as key intermediates, three different synthetic approaches were comprehensively investigated. For the final synthesis it is suggested that (1) alkylation of lithium (trimethylsilyl)acetylide with tetrahydropyranyl-protected omega-bromoalcohols, followed by (2) cleavage of the trimethylsilyl moiety and the tetrahydropyranyl protecting group, and (3) copper(II)-catalyzed Eglinton coupling is the best strategy for obtaining diacetylene-modified alkane-1,omega-diols, because higher yields were obtained while avoiding the formation of by-products. Moreover, conversion of the diols into bipolar phospholipids was achieved by bis-phosphorylation with beta-bromoethylphosphoric acid dichloride and subsequent quaternization with trimethylamine or dimethylamine. Finally, spectral data are presented for novel single-chain, diacetylene-modified bolaphospholipids with promising potential as starting molecules in the formation of polymerizable and, thus, thermostable nanofibers.
coupling of ω‐allenyl‐substituted carboxylicacids. The use of a modified diop ligand, chiral DTBM‐diop, led to high enantioselectivity (up to 93 % ee). The reaction tolerated a large variety of functionalities, including α,β‐unsaturated carboxylicacids and depsipeptides, and provided the desired macrocycles with very high enantio‐ and diastereoselectivity.

The omega-alkynals yielded macrocyclic (S)-allylic alcohols in a one-pot reaction sequence involving alkyne monohydroboration, boron to zinc transmetalation, and ((+)-DAIB)-catalyzed enantioselective intramolecular ring closure to the aldehyde function. A general study of this macrocyclization methodology is presented with respect to ligand type, size, and nature of the formed rings.

Catalyzed movement of alkene double bonds up to 30 positions has been accomplished using a catalyst featuring a cationic CpRu fragment and bifunctional imidazolylphosphine. The basic nitrogen of the latter is thought to deprotonate coordinated alkene intermediates reversibly, facilitating isomerization between terminal and (E)-alkenes and accelerating conversions by factors of up to 1 x 10(4).
