Asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions of (S)-2-(p-tolylsulfinyl)-1,4-naphthoquinones
摘要:
The asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions of (S)-2-(p-tolylsulfinyl)-1,4-naphthoquinones 1a-c with cyclic dienes have been explored. The high pi facial diastereoselectivity observed can be reversed in the presence of ZnBr2. Evidence is presented to show that the regiochemical outcome of these reactions is controlled only by the sulfinyl group. The in situ cycloaddition/pyrolytic sulfoxide elimination starting from chiral 1a-c offers a convenient new route for the construction of enantiomerically pure 1,4-dihydro-9,10-anthraquinones (+)-10 and (+)-12a-c.

Here, an α-selective Csp3–H bond functionalization of primary aliphatic alcohols with 1,4-naphthoquinones yielded Csp2–Csp2 coupled products driven by blue-LED light under catalyst, metal, base, and reagent-free conditions. In this transformation, cleavage of three C–H bonds (two sp3–C-H, one sp2–C–H, and one O–H) and four new bonds formed, leading to fluorescent 2-acylated-1,4-naphthohydroquinones
在这里,在催化剂、金属、碱和无试剂条件下,脂肪伯醇与 1,4-萘醌的 α-选择性 C sp3 -H 键官能化产生了由蓝色 LED 光驱动的 C sp 2 -C sp 2偶联产物. 在该转化过程中,三个 C-H 键(两个 sp 3 -CH、一个 sp 2 -C-H 和一个 O-H)断裂并形成四个新键,从而产生荧光 2-acylated-1,4-naphthohydroquinones .
Blue Light Irradiated Metal-, Oxidant-, and Base-Free Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling of C(<i>sp</i><sup>2</sup>)–H and N–H Bonds: Amination of Naphthoquinones with Amines
reaction proceeds by radical pathway in which naphthoquinone forms a highly oxidizing naphthoquinonyl biradical upon irradiation of blue light (457 nm). Consequently, electron transferfrom electron-rich amine to an oxidizing naphthoquinonyl biradical leads to a naphthoquinonyl radical anion and aminyl radical cation, followed by proton transfer and delocalization leading to a carbon-centered naphthoquinonyl

A silver-catalyzed coupling reaction of quinones with aryl disulfides for the synthesis of quinonyl aryl thio ethers is described. In the presence of AgOAc (0.2 equiv)/dppp (0.24 equiv) as the catalyst, (NH4)(2)S2O8 (3.0 equiv) as the oxidant, and Bu4NBF4 (1.0 equiv) as the additive, the reaction is simple, provides high yield (up to 88% yield), and possesses a broad substrate scope. The reaction is believed to proceed via direct activation of disulfides evidenced by observation of a metathesis reaction between two different disulfides placed together under the reaction conditions and C-13 NMR spectroscopy analysis.

A series of analogs of 2-tosylnaphthalene-1,4-diol were prepared and were found to be potent 10-20 nM reversible inhibitors of the Escherichia coli FabH enzyme. The inhibitors were also effective but to a lesser degree (30 nM-5 mu M), against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Plasmodium falciparum FabH enzymes. Preliminary SAR studies demonstrated that the sulfonyl group and naphthalene-1,4 diol were required for activity against all enzymes but the toluene portion could be significantly altered and leads to either modest increases or decreases in activity against the three enzymes. The in vitro activity of the analogs against E. coli FabH parallel the in vivo activity against E. coli TolC strain and many of the compounds were also shown to have antimalarial activity against P. falciparum.
