A Unified Strategy for the Synthesis of Difluoromethyl- and Vinylfluoride-Containing Scaffolds
摘要:
Here, we report a general method for the synthesis of quaternary and tertiary difluoromethylated compounds and their vinylfluoride analogues. The strategy, which relies on a two-step sequence featuring a C-selective electrophilic difluoromethylation and either a palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative protonation or a Krapcho decarboxylation, is practical, scalable, and high yielding. Considering the generality of the method and the attractive properties offered by the difluoromethyl group, this approach provides a valuable tool for late-stage functionalization and drug development.

A series of twenty seven acetylcholinesteraseinhibitors, as potential agents for the treatment of Alzheimer'sdisease, were designed and synthesised based upon previously unexplored chemical space surrounding the molecular skeleton of the drug donepezil, which is currently used for the management of mild to severe Alzheimer'sdisease. Two series of analogues were prepared, the first looking at the
[reaction: see text] Novel Mannich-type reactions of 1,3-dicarbonylcompounds with enecarbamates have been developed. Stable and storable enecarbamates work as surrogates of aliphatic aldehyde-derived imines, which are known to be difficult to isolate and store.
Stereoselective Spirolactam Synthesis via Palladium Catalyzed Arylative Allene Carbocyclization Cascades

日期:2010.9.3
A diastereoselective arylative carbocyclization of pro-nucleophile-linked allenes with aryl and heteroaryl halides to provide spirocyclic lactam products with moderate to high diastereoselectivities and good yields under Pd(0) catalysis is reported. Being operationally simple and tolerant of multiple points of diversity, this complexity building reaction cascade, in which two new carbon-carbon bonds and one new heterocyclic ring are created, should be of high value in both complex natural product synthesis as well as compound library synthesis.
Substituted aryl malonamates as new serine β-lactamase substrates: Structure–activity studies
A series of substituted aryl malonamates have been prepared. These compounds are analogues of aryl phenaceturates where the amido side chain has been replaced by a retro-amide. Like the phenaceturates, these compounds are substrates of typical class A and class C beta-lactamases, particularly of the latter, and of soluble DD-peptidases. The effect of substituents alpha to the ester carbonyl group on turnover by these enzymes is similar to that in the phenaceturates. On the other hand, N-alkylation of the side chain amide of malonamates, but not of phenaceturates, retains the susceptibility of the compounds to hydrolysis by beta-lactamases. This reactivity is not enhanced, however, by bridging the amide nitrogen and C alpha atoms. A phosphonate analogue of the malonamates was found to be an irreversible inhibitor of the beta-lactamases. These results, therefore, provide further evidence for the covalent access of compounds bearing retroamide side chains to the active sites of beta-lactam-recognizing enzymes. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
