Iodoacetylene 1 was prepared in situ from the reactions of ethynylmagnesium bromide or tributyl(ethynyl)tin with iodine. It was used as a dipolarphile in the [2 + 3] cyclization reaction with 1,3-dipolar nitrile oxide derivatives to produce 2-(5-iodoisoxazol-3-yl)pyridine 2 and 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-iodoisoxazole 8 in good yield (70-90%). Subsequently, several 5-substituted isoxazole derivatives 3 were obtained by Pd-catalyzed reactions. [reaction: see text]
A new approach for atropselective preparation of axially chiral biaryl was developed. This process proceeded through a chirality transfer from a stereogenic center of a secondary alcohol to the stereogenic axis via regioselective intramolecular silyl group migration. This methodology allowed for the preparation of a single atropisomer 2 in good yield (85%) with high diastereoselectivity (99:1), which subsequently led to the successful development of an efficient asymmetric synthesis of A-240610.0, 1.
A practical and scaleable synthesis of a novel nonsteroidal ligand for the glucocorticoid receptor A-224817.0 1A is described. The synthesis proceeds in seven steps starting from 1,3-dimethoxybenzene. The biaryl intermediate 5 was prepared by an optimized high-yielding and high-throughput Negishi protocol. The quinoline core 8 was constructed by using a modified Skraup reaction. The final product was obtained by a direct allylation reaction of lactol 10 with allyltrimethylsilane. The process was accomplished efficiently to produce 1A in 25% overall yield and >99% purity with simple and practical isolation and purification procedures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
