A systematic investigation of the reductive ring-expansion reaction of cyclic ketoximes fused to aromatic rings with diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBALH) is described. This reaction regioselectively afforded a variety of five- to eight-membered bicyclic heterocycles or tricyclic heterocycles containing nitrogen neighboring an aromatic ring, including indoline, 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydrobenz[b]azocine, 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazine, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,4]thiazepine, 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydroazepino[3,2-b]-indole, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzothieno[2,3-b]azepine, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzothieno[3,2-b]azepine, 5,6-dihydrophenanthridine, and 5,6,11,12-tetrahydrodibenz[b,f]azocine. The reaction mechanism leading to the rearrangement was investigated on the basis of the restricted Becke three-parameter plus Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) density functional theory (DFT) with the 6-31G (d) basis set. It was found that the reaction proceeds through a three-centered transition state via a stepwise mechanism because the potential energy curve along the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) had two maxima (saddle points; TS1 and TS2) and the partial phenonium cation intermediate C. In addition to cyclic ketoximes fused to aromatic rings, the reactions of various cyclic and acyclic ketoximes were examined to investigate preference of migrating group. It was found that the more electron-rich group migrated preferentially to give the corresponding secondary amines.

Reaction Path Determination of Rhodium(I)-Catalyzed C-H Alkylation of N-8-Aminoquinolinyl Aromatic Amides with Maleimides

Attila Taborosi, Oiyuan He, Yusuke Ano, Naoto Chatani, Seiji Mori

Summary: The reaction of N-8-amino-quinolinyl aromatic amides with maleimides under rhodium(I) catalysis results in C-H alkylation at the ortho position of the amide. Computational studies using density functional theory (DFT) have shown that the reaction proceeds through several steps including NH amide deprotonation, oxidative addition, migratory insertion, reductive elimination, and protonation. The oxidation number of the Rh catalyst plays a crucial role in determining the reaction path.

Summary: C-H functionalization is a powerful tool for modifying bioactive compounds and creating new active molecules in late-stage transformations. However, its application is limited. This study demonstrates the efficient catalysis of an iridium-salen complex in asymmetric carbene C-H insertion reactions, achieving high stereoselectivity and regioselectivity.

Integrated Experimental and Computational Studies on the Organocatalytic Kinetic Resolution of β-Unfunctionalized Primary Alcohols Using a Chiral 1,2-Diamine: The Importance of Noncovalent Interactions

Naoki Sakai, Kohei Ojima, Seiji Mori, Takeshi Oriyama

Summary: In this study, a novel chiral catalyst derived from (S)-proline was used to perform enantioselective kinetic resolution of beta-unfunctionalized primary alcohols with benzoyl chloride. Valuable chiral 2-substituted propan-1-ols were obtained with good enantioselectivities, and density functional theory calculations revealed the crucial role of noncovalent interactions, such as CH-pi interactions, in the enantioselectivity of the resolution.

Efficient and Scalable Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (-)-Emetine with Pharmaceutical Grade Quality; First Multigram Scale Synthesis

Masatoshi Yamada, Kazuki Azuma, Iori Takizawa, Yuki Ejima, Mitsuhisa Yamano, Kimio Satoh, Takayuki Doi, Hirofumi Ueda, Hidetoshi Tokuyama

Summary: A scalable asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-emetine, an important component in emetics, has been achieved. The synthesis involved 13 steps of highly efficient chemical reactions, including catalytic asymmetric allylation and industrial deoxygenation, eliminating the need for chromatographic purification. A high yield of (-)-emetine center dot 2HCl (12%) with over 93.2% HPLC purity was obtained, and the synthesis can be easily scaled up for larger production and currently used in natural ipecac syrup for clinical application.

Iron-Catalyzed Biomimetic Dimerization of Tryptophan-Containing Peptides

Hirofumi Ueda, Soichiro Sato, Kenta Noda, Hiroyuki Hakamata, Eunsang Kwon, Nagao Kobayashi, Hidetoshi Tokuyama

Summary: A biomimetic oxidative dimerization method for tryptophan derivatives was developed using oxygen as a bulk oxidant in aqueous media catalyzed by an iron octacarboxy phthalocyanine complex. The highly active iron catalyst enables aerobic enzyme-mimetic oxidation in a flask. This method provides a facile access to a broad range of dimerized peptides with unique scaffold, which can be used as a powerful tool for creating new small- and medium-sized molecules as drug candidates.

Synthetic Studies on Cimiciduphytine

Ken-ichi Ojima, Hirofumi Ueda, Hidetoshi Tokuyama, M. Iyag

Summary: This study conducted synthetic studies on a dimeric indole alkaloid, cimicidu-phytine, by modifying the synthesis of (+)-haplophytine. The key aspects of this synthesis included the chemoselective deallylation of an N,O-diallyl derivative of a hydroxy aniline and the copper sulfate-mediated oxidative lactonization via oxidation of the amino moiety. A highly convergent strategy successfully synthesized the originally proposed cimiciduphytine, but it proved to be unstable under air and underwent cyclization to generate a bridged derivative.

Concise Total Synthesis of (+)-Pleiocarpamine and Convergent Total Syntheses of (+)-Voacalgine A and (+)-Bipleiophylline via an Aerobic Oxidative Coupling

Kosuke Okada, Ken-ichi Ojima, Hirofumi Ueda, Hidetoshi Tokuyama

Summary: The synthesis of (+)-pleiocarpamine, (+)-voacalgine A and (+)-bipleiophylline was achieved in this study. The 10-step synthesis of (+)-pleiocarpamine features the construction of stereochemistry at the C16 position by radical cyclization and the synthesis of the highly strained cage-like structure via Pd-catalyzed intramolecular aromatic C-H functionalization. By modifying the biomimetic aerobic oxidative coupling of tryptophane derivatives catalyzed by FePc(CO2H)(8), the oxidative coupling of (+)-pleiocarpamine with pyrocatechuic acid produced (+)-voacalgine A. The total synthesis of (+)-bipleiophylline was completed by the second coupling of (+)-voacalgine A with (+)-pleiocarpamine or the one-pot couplings of 2 equiv of (+)-pleiocarpamine with pyrocatechuic acid.

Incorporation of a bromine atom into DNA-related molecules changes their electronic properties

Misaki Hirato, Akinari Yokoya, Yuji Baba, Seiji Mori, Kentaro Fujii, Shin-ichi Wada, Yudai Izumi, Yoshinori Haga

Summary: X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to study the mechanism of high radio-sensitisation in living cells with brominated genomic DNA. The bromine atom reduced the energy gap between the valence and conduction states, facilitating electron transfer and increasing the probability of reaction with low energy electrons. This leads to DNA damage and cytotoxic effects.

Experimental and theoretical studies of the rhodium(i)-catalysed C-H oxidative alkenylation/cyclization of N-(2-(methylthio)phenyl)benzamides with maleimides

Aymen Skhiri, Attila Taborosi, Nozomi Ohara, Yusuke Ano, Seiji Mori, Naoto Chatani

Summary: A rhodium(I)-catalysed reaction was conducted using aromatic amides containing a 2-(methylthio)aniline directing group and maleimides, resulting in the formation of isoindolone spirosuccinimides under aerobic, metal oxidant-free, and solvent-free conditions. The use of a (2-methylthio)aniline directing group led to C-H oxidative alkenylation/cyclization, in contrast to a previous study with an 8-aminoquinoline directing group. Analysis using density functional theory (DFT) calculations identified the main steps involved in the reaction mechanism, including oxidative addition/migratory insertion and C-N bond formation.
