In this paper, exploration of our continuous interests on late-stage derivation of quinozaline core is described. A wide array of 4-(1H-indol-1-yl)quinazolines were obtained in good to excellent yields through palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of 4-tosyloxyquinazolines with indole derivatives under mild reaction conditions.

AbstractCatalytic kinetic resolution of amines represents a longstanding challenge in chemical synthesis. Here, we described a kinetic resolution of secondary amines through oxygenation to produce enantiopure hydroxylamines involving N–O bond formation. The economic and practical titanium-catalyzed asymmetric oxygenation with environmentally benign hydrogen peroxide as oxidant is applicable to a range of racemic indolines with multiple stereocenters and diverse substituent patterns in high efficiency with efficient chemoselectivity and enantio-discrimination. Late-stage asymmetric oxygenation of bioactive molecules that are otherwise difficult to synthesize was also explored.

A mild heteroatom methylation protocol using trimethyl phosphate (TMP)-Ca(OH)2 combination has been developed, which proceeds in DMF, or water, or under neat conditions at 80 oC or at room temperature. A series of O-, N- and S-nucleophiles, including phenols, sulfonamides, N-heterocycles such as 9H-carbazole, indole derivatives, 1,8-naphthalimide, and aryl/alkyl thiols are suitable substrates of this protocol. The high efficiency, operational simplicity, scalability, cost-efficiency, and environmental friendly nature of this protocol make it an attractive alternative to the conventional base prompted heteroatom methylation procedures.

Vanadium Haloperoxidases (VHPOs) have been used in a variety of biotransformations showing remarkable stereoselectivity and regiospecificity. The high efficiency of the enzyme is influenced by the protein active site and the role of certain amino acids in activation of vanadium(V)-bound peroxide for halide oxidation. The use of natural or recombinant enzymes, or biomimetic vanadium compounds brings up issues regarding the cost of production and reaction conditions. In this chapter, the primary intent is to provide a simple and clear picture of functional mimicking nature of peroxovanadium compounds with haloperoxidases enzymes to the readers. Major emphasis would be given to examine the reactivity of the vanadium haloperoxidases with mechanism.

The microwave-assisted heating reaction of N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) in sulfolane is described. The reaction produces two major products that are assignable to 1,6-anhydro-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-glucopyranose (AGPNAc) and 1,6-anhydro-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-glucofuranose (AGFNAc). In order to reveal a general feature of the system, the 3, 5, and 10 min reactions were performed at 140, 160, 180, 200, and 220 °C to clarify the time course changes in the conversion of GlcNAc and the yields of the two produced 1,6-anhydrosugars. Temperature is a crucial factor that significantly affects the conversion of GlcNAc. The yields of AGPNAc and AGFNAc are also drastically changed depending on the reaction conditions. The 5-min reaction at 200 °C is shown to be the optimal condition to generate the 1,6-anhydrosugars with a high efficiency in which AGPNAc and AGFNAc are produced in the yields of 21% and 44%, respectively. Consequently, the microwave-assisted heating reaction of GlcNAc in sulfolane is shown to be a simple and promising pathway to generate 1,6-anhydrosugars consisting of amino monosaccharide backbones, which have high potentials as raw materials leading to biological oligosaccharides and biomimetic polysaccharides.

Abstract Alkyl carboxylic acids as well as primary amines are ubiquitous in all facets of biological science, pharmaceutical science, chemical science and materials science. By chemical conversion to redox-active esters (RAE) and Katritzky’s N-alkylpyridinium salts, respectively, alkyl carboxylic acids and primary amines serve as ideal starting materials to forge new connections. In this work, a Mn-mediated reductive decarboxylative/deaminative functionalization of activated aliphatic acids and primary amines is disclosed. A series of C-X (X = S, Se, Te, H, P) and C-C bonds are efficiently constructed under simple and mild reaction conditions. The protocol is applicable to the late-stage modification of some structurally complex natural products or drugs. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest the involvement of radicals in the reaction pathway.

The utilisation of an ionic liquid-[bmim][BF4] as both reaction medium and promoter for the reaction between aldehyde and 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one is described. Without any added catalyst, this reaction was realised efficiently to give arylbispyranylmethane derivatives in high yields. Alternatively, when this reaction was carried out in the presence of acetic anhydride, fused pyran derivatives were obtained. These two novel procedures have advantages such as an environmentally benign nature, high efficiency, simple operation process and mild reaction conditions. As an application, these procedures were used in the preparation of novel 5-substituted pyrimidine nucleoside derivatives with potential antiviral activities.
