Radical Functionalization

Visible light photoredox catalysis has recently emerged as a powerful tool for the development of new and valuable chemical transformations under mild conditions. Visible-light promoted enantioselective radical transformations of imines and iminium intermediates provide new opportunities for the asymmetric synthesis of amines and asymmetric β-functionalization of unsaturated carbonyl compounds. In this review, the advance in the catalytic asymmetric radical functionalization of imines, as well as iminium intermediates, are summarized. 1 Introduction 2 The enantioselective radical functionalization of imines 2.1 Asymmetric reduction 2.2 Asymmetric cyclization 2.3 Asymmetric addition 2.4 Asymmetric radical coupling 3 The enantioselective radical functionalization of iminium ions 3.1 Asymmetric radical alkylation 3.2 Asymmetric radical acylation 4 Conclusion

Sodium hydroxide reacts with α -(4-nitrobenzylthio)-acetic acid in aqueous-dioxane media to give 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene as the main product besides 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene and a nitrone acid. This reaction was kinetically studied in presence of excess of alkali in different dioxane-water media at different temperatures. It started by a fast reversible a-proton abstraction step followed by two consecutive irreversible first-order steps forming two intermediates (α -hydroxy, 4-nitrosobenzylthio)-acetic acid and 4-nitrosobenzaldehyde. The latter underwent a Cannizzaro's reaction, the products of which changed in the reaction medium into 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene and 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene. The rate constants and the thermodynamic parameters of the two consecutive steps were calculated and discussed. A mechanism was put forward for the formation of the nitrone acid.Other six 4-nitrobenzyl, aryl sulphides were qualitatively studied and they gave mainly 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene beside 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene or its corresponding azo acid.

Kinetic Isotope

L-Lactate dehydrogenase (L-LDH) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and L-mandelate dehydrogenase (L-MDH) from Rhodotorula graminis are both flavocytochromes b2. The kinetic properties of these enzymes have been compared using steady-state kinetic methods. The most striking difference between the two enzymes is found by comparing their substrate specificities. L-LDH and L-MDH have mutually exclusive primary substrates, i.e. the substrate for one enzyme is a potent competitive inhibitor for the other. Molecular-modelling studies on the known three-dimensional structure of S. cerevisiae L-LDH suggest that this enzyme is unable to catalyse the oxidation of L-mandelate because productive binding is impeded by steric interference, particularly between the side chain of Leu-230 and the phenyl ring of mandelate. Another major difference between L-LDH and L-MDH lies in the rate-determining step. For S. cerevisiae L-LDH, the major rate-determining step is proton abstraction at C-2 of lactate, as previously shown by the 2H kinetic-isotope effect. However, in R. graminis L-MDH the kinetic-isotope effect seen with DL-[2-2H]mandelate is only 1.1 +/- 0.1, clearly showing that proton abstraction at C-2 of mandelate is not rate-limiting. The fact that the rate-determining step is different indicates that the transition states in each of these enzymes must also be different.

The reactions of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene fully deuterated at the methyl position (TNT-d3) with sodium and potassium t-butoxide in t-butanol have been studied. With TNT as the substrate, proton abstraction by ion-paired sodium or potassium t-butoxide appears to be the predominant reaction in solution. With sodium t-butoxide as base, the forward rate constant for proton abstraction at 30.0 °C (Kf,ip) is 6000 ± 400 M−1 s−1 while ΔH≠ and ΔS≠ for the reaction are 4.2 ± 0.3 kcal mol−1 and −27 ± 2 cal deg−1 mol−1, respectively. With TNT-d3 as the substrate, formation of a TNT-d3-t-butoxide ion σ-complex occurs simultaneously with deuteron abstraction. Specific rate constants for the two processes have been determined at 30.0 °C. Initial rate studies establish a hydrogen-deuterium kinetic isotope effect of 8 ± 1 for the formation of the anion in t-butanol.
