Natural Product Synthesis Enabled by Domino Processes Incorporating a 1,2-Rearrangement Step

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Bastien Delayre

The art of natural product total synthesis is closely associated with two major determinants: the development/application of novel chemical reactions and the innovation in strategic use of classic organic reactions. While purposely seeking/applying a new s ...

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Alstilobanine C, (+)-Undulifoline, and (-)-Alpneumine H

Cyril Piemontesi, Nicolas David Gaeng, Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Guang Li

We report herein the enantioselective total synthesis of three monoterpene indole alkaloids, namely, (+)-alstilobanine C, (+)-undulifoline, and (-)-alpneumine H. The key features of our synthesis include: a) introduction of chirality via enantioselective d ...

Methods for the generation of large combinatorial macrocycle libraries

Sevan Mleh Habeshian

Macrocycles are an attractive class of molecules due to their good binding properties and yet rather small size that allows, in many cases, crossing membranes to reach intracellular targets. In comparison to classical small molecule drugs, macrocycles are ...

Copper‐Catalyzed Aza‐Sonogashira Cross‐Coupling to Ynimines: Development and Application to the Synthesis of Heterocycles

Jieping Zhu, Qiang Wang, Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

Nitrogen substituted alkynes such as ynamines and ynamides are versatile synthetic building blocks in organic chemistry. Ynimines bearing additional nucleophilic and electrophilic centers relative to ynamines and ynamides are expected to have high syntheti ...

New Strategies for the Functionalization of Alkenes Exploiting Tethering Chemistry and Ring Strain

Bastian Antoine Rodolphe Claude Muriel

Amino alcohols, cyclopropanes and nitriles are privileged structural motifs found in the scaffold of natural products and bioactive compounds. In addition, they are versatile building blocks in organic chemistry. The development of new and increasingly eff ...

Development of remote C-H bond functionalization of redox-active alcohol derivatives and oxidative transformations under photoredox catalysis

Alexandre Julien Florent Leclair

The development of radical-based remote C(sp3)-H functionalizations of redox-active alcohol derivatives, oxidative cycloaddition and rearrangement transformations under visible light photocatalysis constitute the basis of this thesis. The first chapter des ...

Nitrous oxide as a diazo transfer reagent: the synthesis of triazolopyridines

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Iris Roswitha Landman

Nitrous oxide is a potential diazo transfer reagent, but its applications in organic chemistry are scarce. Here, we show that triazolopyridines and triazoloquinolines are formed in the reactions of metallated 2-alkylpyridines or 2-alkylquinolines with N2O. ...

New Vinylation and Alkynylation Strategies with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Diazo Compounds

Guillaume Dominique Pisella

The development of a sequential copper-catalyzed oxy-alkynylation/intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of allenes and arenes was investigated at first. This one-pot protocol allowed the construction of complex polycylic architectures with high efficiency fro ...

Tuning the π‐Accepting Properties of Mesoionic Carbenes: A Combined Computational and Experimental Study

Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Jacob Terence Blaskovits, Zhaowen Dong

Mesoionic imidazolylidenes are recognized as excellent electron-donating ligands in organometallic and main group chemistry. However, these carbene ligands typically show poor π-accepting properties. We have performed a computational analysis of 71 mesoion ...

Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of Morpholinones Enabled by Aza-Benzilic Ester Rearrangement

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Hua Wu, Yuping He

Chiral morpholinone is an important building block in organic synthesis and a pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry. However, catalytic enantioselective methods for the construction of this N,O-heterocycle remain scarce. We report herein a chiral phosphoric ...

Isolation and characterization of diazoolefins

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Paul Varava, Zhaowen Dong

Diazoolefins tend to be highly reactive compounds that rapidly lose dinitrogen. So far, most experimental evidence for diazoolefins is indirect, via trapping experiments. Here we show that diazoolefins are observed to form in reactions of N-heterocyclic ol ...
