Shorter and Modular Synthesis of Hemicryptophane-tren Derivatives

Abstract: Hemicryptophanes are host molecules with many applications as supramolecular catalysts or in ion selective recognition. A very convenient and efficient modular approach for the synthesis of hemicryptophane-tren (tren, tris(2-aminoethyl)-amine) derivatives has been developed. For instance, hemicryptophane 1 was synthesized at the gram scale in four steps from vanillyl alcohol compared to the previous seven-step procedure. The size, shape, and functionalities of the molecular cavity were also easily modified.

“…[8][9][10] They were found to be a novel class of efficient supramolecular catalysts, 11,12 ion pair, 13 or zwitterions receptors 14,15 and led to the design of novel molecular mechanical components as propeller or gyroscope. Their syntheses mainly afford racemic mixtures, and their optical resolution is a common and challenging issue in the research of optically pure molecular hosts.…”

“…31 Following this approach and using enantiopure tren derivatives should provide an easy way to obtain enantiopure hemicryptophanes. The reaction of the hemicryptophane precursor rac-2 bearing three aldehyde moieties with the enantiopure tren SSS-3a in a CHCl 3 /CH 3 OH mixture afforded the tris-imino-hemicryptophane 4a.…”

“…Compound 3 was prepared according to a previously reported two steps procedure: reaction between vanillic alcohol and dibromoethane affords compound 2 and the subsequent cyclization with scandium triflate in CH 3 CN gives CTV rac-3 in 18 % overall yield. 42 Mono-protection of the enantiopure S-binaphthol by an allyl group provides compound S-4, which then reacts with CTV rac-3 to give a mixture of the two diastereomers M-SSS-5…”
