abstract = {For mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) a shallow surface—distinct from the substrate binding pocket—called the D(ocking)-groove governs partner protein binding. Screening of broad range of Michael acceptor compounds identified a double-activated, sterically crowded cyclohexenone moiety as a promising scaffold. We show that compounds bearing this structurally complex chiral warhead are able to target the conserved MAPK D-groove cysteine via reversible covalent modification and interfere with the protein-protein interactions of MAPKs. The electronic and steric properties of the Michael acceptor can be tailored via different substitution patterns. The inversion of the chiral center of the warhead can reroute chemical bond formation with the targeted cysteine towards the neighboring, but less nucleophilic histidine. Compounds bind to the shallow MAPK D-groove with low micromolar affinity in vitro and perturb MAPK signaling networks in the cell. This class of chiral, cyclic and enhanced 3D shaped Michael acceptor scaffolds offers an alternative to conventional ATP-competitive drugs modulating MAPK signaling pathways.},

abstract = {There has been a surge of interest in covalent inhibitors for protein kinases in recent years. Despite success in oncology, the off-target reactivity of these molecules is still hampering the use of covalent warhead-based strategies. Herein, we disclose the development of precision-guided warheads to mitigate the off-target challenge. These reversible warheads have a complex and cyclic structure with optional chirality center and tailored steric and electronic properties. To validate our proof-of-concept, we modified acrylamide-based covalent inhibitors of c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs). We show that the cyclic warheads have high resilience against off-target thiols. Additionally, the binding affinity, residence time, and even JNK isoform specificity can be fine-tuned by adjusting the substitution pattern or using divergent and orthogonal synthetic elaboration of the warhead. Taken together, the cyclic warheads presented in this study will be a useful tool for medicinal chemists for the deliberate design of safer and functionally fine-tuned covalent inhibitors.},

Their synthesis via polyene cyclization, either biomimetic or enzymatic, represents the cutting edge of modern synthetic chemistry. However, these endeavors have been inherently tied to the availability of natural and non-natural acyclic polyene starting materials. Herein, we report an oxetane-based platform for the modular construction of oxygenated polyolefins with precise geometric control. This “tail-to head” iterative method leverages the site-selective cross-metathesis of terminal olefins to form an alkylidene oxetane moiety and the regioselective ring opening of alkenyl-oxetanes for chain elongation. In addition, the unique and peculiar propensity of alkylidene oxetane fragment in various reactions was also revealed and exploited for site-selective functionalization, cyclization, and as a protecting group in polyenes.},

abstract = {Amide bioisoterism is a widely used strategy in drug development to fine-tune physicochemical, pharmacokinetic, and metabolic properties, eliminate toxicity and gain intellectual property rights in uncharted chemical space. Of these, oxetane-amines offer particularly exciting possibilities as bioisosteres, although they are less frequently investigated than warranted due to the lack of simple and widely applicable synthetic methods. Herein, we report a two-step, practical, modular, robust, and scalable method for the construction of oxetane-containing amide bioisosteres that relies on the readily available oxetan-3-one. This operationally simple procedure exploits the enhanced reactivity of the keto group of the commercially available oxetan-3-one to form amine-benzotriazole intermediates, which springloaded adducts are then reacted with various aliphatic and aromatic organometallic reagents under mild conditions to afford various amino-oxetanes in good to high yields. The simplicity and broad applicability of the method greatly facilitates the synthesis of derivatives that were previously difficult or impossible to produce. The usefulness of this method in the field medicinal chemistry was also demonstrated by eliminating the well-known metabolic problem of ketoconazole.},

The characteristic spiro-5-5-6 tricyclic system of these alkaloids is formed via a protecting group-free cascade relay process in which oxidized tryptamine and secologanin analogs are used. Furthermore, we uncovered that mitragynine pseudoindoxyl acts not as a single molecular entity but as a dynamic ensemble of stereoisomers in protic environments, thus, it exhibits structural plasticity in biological systems. Accordingly, these synthetic, structural, and biological studies provide a basis for the planned design of mitragynine pseudoindoxyl analogs, which can guide the development of next-generation analgesics.},

abstract = {Prenylation is a ubiquitous late-stage modification in nature that often confers significantly improved bioactivity for secondary metabolites. While this lipophilic modification renders enhanced potency, the lipophilic tag(s) can diminish bioavailability and adversely alter drug transportation and metabolism. Thus, a functional group tolerant, mild, and selective late-stage C–H functionalization of prenyl tags would present a great potential in drug discovery programs but could also impact other fields, such as agrochemistry and chemical biology. Herein we report an exocyclic strain driven cross-metathesis reaction of prenyl tags, a formal double C–H oxidation protocol, that can be used for the selective late-stage derivatization of prenylated compounds and natural products. This methodology avoids the need of pre-functionalization of target molecules and affords an easy access to an unprecedented library of oxo- and aza-prenylated complex molecules. Thus, in a broader context, this methodology extends late-stage functionalization beyond that available to nature.},

Cytotoxicity tests performed on a panel of parental and MDR cells highlight a strong influence of experimentally determined pKa values of the donor atom moieties, indicating that protonation and metal chelation are important factors modulating the MDR-selective anticancer activity of the studied compounds.

abstract = {Combined computational-experimental studies were carried out to parallel two mechanistic models for tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols catalyzed by Schreiner's thiourea. The results challenge the common mechanistic view that the catalytic effect is related to stabilizing double hydrogen-bonding interactions between the thiourea and the alcohol, which promote the attack on 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (DHP) (hydrogen bonding (HB) mechanism). In the alternative mechanism that we propose, thiourea acts as a Brønsted acid, protonating DHP to form an oxacarbenium ion, which reacts with the alcohol (Brønsted acid (BA) mechanism). Computations point to clear preference of transition states associated with the BA mechanism and, accordingly, predict similar catalytic activity for N-methylated thiourea and thiouracil. These predictions are confirmed experimentally. Reactions with deuterated alcohols yield both syn and anti products, providing further support for the Brønsted acid mechanism. © 2016 American Chemical Society.},

abstract = {How do skilled synthetic chemists develop good intuitive expertise? Why can we only access such a small amount of the available chemical space - both in terms of the reactions used and the chemical scaffolds we make? We argue here that these seemingly unrelated questions have a common root and are strongly interdependent. We performed a comprehensive analysis of organic reaction parameters dating back to 1771 and discovered that there are several anthropogenic factors that limit reaction parameters and thus the scope of synthetic chemistry. Nevertheless, many of the anthropogenic limitations such as narrow parameter space and the opportunity for rapid and clear feedback on the progress of reactions appear to be crucial for the acquisition of valid and reliable chemical intuition. In parallel, however, all of these same factors represent limitations for the exploration of available chemistry space and we argue that these are thus at least partly responsible for limited access to new chemistries. We advocate, therefore, that the present anthropogenic boundaries can be expanded by a more conscious exploration of "off-road" chemistry that would also extend the intuitive knowledge of trained chemists.

abstract = {A joint experimental-theoretical study of a bifunctional squaramide-amine-catalyzed Michael addition reaction between 1,3-dioxo nucleophiles and nitrostyrene has been undertaken to gain insight into the nature of bifunctional organocatalytic activation. For this highly stereoselective reaction, three previously proposed mechanistic scenarios for the critical C-C bond-formation step were examined. Accordingly, the formation of the major stereoisomeric products is most plausible by one of the bifunctional pathways that involve electrophile activation by the protonated amine group of the catalyst. However, some of the minor product isomers are also accessible through alternative reaction routes. Structural analysis of transition states points to the structural invariance of certain fragments of the transition state, such as the protonated catalyst and the anionic fragment of approaching reactants. Our topological analysis provides deeper insight and a more general understanding of bifunctional noncovalent organocatalysis. Finding the path: The mechanism of bifunctional squaramide-promoted Michael addition of prochiral 1,3-dioxo nucleophiles and nitroolefin has been studied on the basis of DFT calculations. Among the investigated mechanistic scenarios, the pathway corresponding to electrophile activation via the protonated amine unit is found to be the most feasible (see figure). For some of the minor stereoisomeric products, alternative pathways are also accessible. © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.},

abstract = {3-Isopropylmalate dehydrogenase (IPMDH) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) may be a target for specific drugs against this pathogenic bacterium. We have expressed and purified Mtb IPMDH and determined its physicalchemical and enzymological properties. Size-exclusion chromatography and dynamic light scattering measurements (DLS) suggest a tetrameric structure for Mtb IPMDH, in contrast to the dimeric structure of most IPMDHs. The kinetic properties (kcat and Km values) of Mtb IPMDH and the pH-dependence of kcat are very similar to both Escherichia coli (Ec) and Thermus thermophilus (Tt) IPMDHs. The stability of Mtb IPMDH in 8 M urea is close to that of the mesophilic counterpart, Ec IPMDH, both of them being much less stable than the thermophilic (Tt) enzyme. Two known IPMDH inhibitors, O-methyl oxalohydroxamate and 3-methylmercaptomalate, have been synthesised. Their inhibitory effects were found to be independent of the origin of IPMDHs. Thus, experiments with either Ec or Tt IPMDH would be equally relevant for designing specific inhibitory drugs against Mtb IPMDH. © 2014 Bentham Science Publishers.},

abstract = {A series of methylene-linked boron/nitrogen geminal Lewis pairs were synthesized and the impacts of sterical effect on their chemical behavior were systematically investigated. Increasing the steric demand around the boron atom is manifested first by an incremental change in the structure of the resulting dative adducts. Accordingly, in the case of phenyl substituents (Alk 2NCH2BPh2), formation of head-to-tail dimers/oligomers was observed, while such an intermolecular association was avoided when o-tolyl moiety was introduced [Alk2NCH 2B(o-Tol)2], affording only an intramolecular dative complex. Further increase of sterical hindrance to a point (i.e. using mesityl substituents), however, caused a radical change in the structure; a dyotropic rearrangement occurred. Thus, steric interference induced a rearrangement in the geminal pair to relieve or minimize the frustration strain. © Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart New York.},

The basic spectroscopic (absorption and phosphorescence spectra) and photophysical (quantum yields and excited state energies) properties were established, and the key kinetic parameters were determined by the laser flash photolysis transient absorption technique. The rate coefficients of both the primary and secondary photoreduction reaction show remarkable dependence on ring substitution. This substantial effect is caused by the considerable change in the activation energy of the corresponding process. The experimental results as well as DFT quantum chemical calculations clearly indicate that these benzophenone derivatives all react as n-π* excited ketones, and the rate as well as the activation energy of the reduction steps change parallel with the reaction enthalpies, the determining factor being the stability of the forming aromatic ketyl radicals. The secondary photoreduction of benzophenones by the aliphatic ketyl radical formed in the primary step occurs via a hydrogen bonded complex. The binding energy of the hydrogen bonded complex between the aliphatic ketyl radical reactant and a solvent molecule is a critical parameter influencing the observable rate of the secondary photoreduction. © 2013 American Chemical Society.},

The aim of our recent efforts is to further increase the functional-group tolerance and chemoselectivity of FLP catalysts by means of size-exclusion catalyst design. Given that hydrogen molecule is the smallest molecule, our modified Lewis acids feature a highly shielded boron center that still allows the cleavage of the hydrogen but avoids undesirable FLP reactivity by simple physical constraint. As a result, greater latitude in substrate scope can be achieved, as exemplified by the chemoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated imines, ketones, and quinolines. In addition to synthetic aspects, detailed NMR spectroscopic, DFT, and 2H isotopic labeling studies were performed to gain further mechanistic insight into FLP hydrogenation.

abstract = {The conformational diversity of the (3R,4S,8R,9R)-9-[(3,5- bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl))-thiourea](9-deoxy)-epi-cinchonine organocatalyst is discussed. Low-temperature NMR experiments confirmed a self-association process, which promotes the quinoline rotation between two intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded monomeric conformers of the catalyst. The balanced population of the coexisting monomeric and dimeric species allowed us to conduct a structural study of a rather complex conformational dynamics of the pure catalyst. The study is extended by a comparison with other members of the bifunctional amine-thiourea organocatalyst family. Changes in themolecular structure of the catalysts influence the interplaybetween intraand intermolecular hydrogen bonding, and yield different extent of catalyst self-association. By assessing the conformation of the individual states, we established the thermodynamic model of a self-association promoted conformational transition. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.},

Low-temperature NMR experiments in inert solvents have revealed two sets of nonequivalent resonances in equal population for thiourea-modified members of the epi-quinine and epi-quinidine families. In solution, the predominance of an asymmetric (C1) dimeric self-assembly with noteworthy structural motifs became evident: simultaneous intra-and intermolecular thiourea hydrogen bonding and a CH/π interaction were observed. Both the stereochemical and the diverse conformational features of the system favor the observed quinoline T-shaped aromatic π-π stacking interaction. The structure findings are supported by quantitative protonproton distance data that were available from NOE buildup curves. The 3D structure of the dimeric assembly has been modeled in agreement with the H-H distance restraints. Owing to the geometrical preference associated with the dimerization process, the self-assembled bifunctional system is interpreted as a charge-transfer complex with the potential for catalyst self-activation. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

abstract = {The mechanism of enantioselective Michael addition of acetylacetone to a nitroolefin catalyzed by a thiourea-based chiral bifunctional organocatalyst is investigated using density functional theory calculations. A systematic conformational analysis is presented for the catalyst, and it is shown that both substrates coordinate preferentially via bidentate hydrogen bonds. The deprotonation of the enol form of acetylacetone by the amine of the catalyst is found to occur easily, leading to an ion pair characterized by multiple H-bonds involving the thiourea unit as well. Two distinct reaction pathways are explored toward the formation of the Michael product that differ in the mode of electrophile activation. Both reaction channels are shown to be consistent with the notion of noncovalent organocatalysis in that the transition states leading to the Michael adduct are stabilized by extensive H-bonded networks. The comparison of the obtained energetics for the two pathways allows us to propose an alternative mechanistic rationale for asymmetric C-C bond forming reactions catalyzed by bifunctional thiourea derivatives. The origin of enantioselectivity in the investigated reaction is also discussed. © 2006 American Chemical Society.},

The vertical ionization potentials of the phosphines P((CH2)mRf8)3 (m = 2 (2) to 5 (5)) are measured by photoelectron spectroscopy, and the enthalpies of protonation by calorimetry (CF3SO3H, CF3C6H5). They undergo progressively more facile (energetically) ionization and protonation (P(CH2CH3)3 > 5 > 4 ≈ P(CH3)3 > 3 > 2), as expected from inductive effects. Equilibrations of trans-Rh(CO)(Cl)(L)2 complexes (L = 2, 3) establish analogous Lewis basicities. Density functional theory is used to calculate the structures, energies, ionization potentials, and gas-phase proton affinities (PA) of the model phosphines P((CH2)mCF3)3 (2′-9′). The ionization potentials of 2′-5′ are in good agreement with those of 2-5, and together with PA values and analyses of homodesmotic relationships are used to address the title question. Between 8 and 10 methylene groups are needed to effectively insulate a perfluoroalkyl segment from a phosphorus lone pair, depending upon the criterion employed. Computations also show that the first carbon of a perfluoroalkyl segment exhibits a much greater inductive effect than the second, and that ionization potentials of nonfluorinated phosphines P((CH2)mCH3)3 reach a limit at approximately nine carbons (m = 8).},

Reactions with n-BuLi and PCl3 (0.33 equiv) give, after workup, mixtures of the title compounds (9a-c) and the corresponding phosphine oxides (10a-c). Treatment with H2O2 gives pure 10 (a/b/c 88/57/24%), which are reduced with Cl3SiH/Et3N to 9 (a/b/c 69/82/43%). Fluorous phase affinities increase with perfluoroalkyl chain length, as quantified by CF3C6F11toluene partition coefficients (9a, 19.5:80.5; 9b, 66.6:33.4). Reaction of 9b, [Ir(COD)(μ-Cl)]2, and CO gives trans-Ir(CO)(Cl)[P(p-C6H4(CH2)3 Rf8)3]2 (76%). The IR νCO value is only slightly greater than that of Vaska's complex (1958 vs 1952 cm-1), indicating nearly negligible inductive effects of the perfluoroalkyl groups. Reaction of 9b and [Rh(COD)(μ-Cl)]2 yields Rh[P(p-C6H4(CH2)3 Rf8)3]3(Cl) (82-93%), which gives small equilibrium amounts of [Rh[P(p-C6H4(CH2)3 Rf8)3]2(μ-Cl)]2 and 9b in solution, and catalyzes the hydrogenation of alkenes under both biphasic (CF3C6F11/toluene) and monophasic (CF3C6H5) conditions.},

Radical-initiated reactions (100 °C) of 7 and H2C=CHCH2R(f8), 8 and H2C=CHR(f8) or H2C= CHCH2CH2R(f8), and 9 and H2C=CHCH2R(f8), give the title phosphanes P[(CH2)(m)R(f8)]2[(CH2)(m')R(f8)] [m/m' = 2/3 (10), 3/2 (11), 3/4 (12), 4/3 (13); 70-76%]. The symmetrically substituted phosphane P[(CH2)(m)R(f8)]3 (m = 5, 6) is similarly prepared from PH3 and H2C=CHCH2CH2CH2R(f8), analogously to previously reported homologs [m = 2 (2), 3 (4), 4 (5)]. Reactions of 10-13 and 2, 4, 5, and 6 with [Ir(COD)Cl]2 and CO give trans-Ir(CO)(Cl)(PR2R')2 (70-83%). The IR V(CO) values show a monotonic decrease with increasing numbers of CH2 groups. Phosphanes 13, 5, and 6 have the most CH2 groups, and give V(CO) values 10, 7, and 4 cm-1 higher than the unfluorinated phosphane P[(CH2)7CH3]3. Hence, 6 provides nearly complete insulation of the iridium center from the electronegative perfluoroalkyl groups. Analogous rhodium derivatives of 4 and 5 are also described.},

Comparison of these and some recent results reveals that this ring opening of fused [1,2,3]triazolium salts is a general phenomenon and is closely related to the well-known retro-electrocyclizations (called '1,5-dipolar cyclizations') of neutral fused [1,2,3]triazoles and tetrazoles.},

Independent of the methylation, a similar easy thermal rearrangement was observed with alkylated 1,3-diaryl-v-triazolo[1,5-α]benzimidazolium (2 → 4) and the related benzothiazolium salt (7 → 8). Extension of the reaction to diaryl-v-triazolopyridinium salt (9 → 10 + 11) allowed observation of an additional novel reaction path that provided further support for the supposed reaction mechanism.},
