Alkyne-Nitrone Cycloadditions for Functionalizing Cell Surface ProteinsMcKay, Craig 19 December 2012 (has links)
Over the past decade, bioorthogonal chemistry has emerged as powerful tools used for tracking biomolecules within living systems. Despite the vast number of organic transformations in the literature, only select few reactions meet the stringent requirements of bioorthogonality. There is increasing demands to develop biocompatible reactions that display high specificity and exquisitely fast kinetics under physiological conditions. With the goal of increasing reaction rates as a means for reducing the concentrations of labelling reagents used for bioconjugation, we have developed metal-catalyzed and metal-free alkyne-nitrone cycloadditions as alternatives to azide-alkyne cycloadditions and demonstrate their applications for imaging cell surface proteins. The copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition, also known as the Kinugasa reaction, is typically conducted with a Cu(I) catalyst in the absence of air. We have developed highly efficient micelle promoted multicomponent Kinugasa reactions in aqueous media to make the reaction faster and more efficient. Despite good product yields, the slow kinetics, limited substrate scope and competing side-reaction pathways precludes its practical applicability for biological labelling. We have designed and synthesized β-lactam alkyne probes obtained from these reactions for activity-based protein profiling of the activities of membrane proteins. Additionally, we report that alkyne tethered β-lactams serve as surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) reporters bound to silver nanoparticles, and demonstrated that alkyne bound silver nanoparticles can be used for SERS imaging cell surface proteins. The strain-promoted alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition (SPANC) was also explored as a rapid alternative bioorthogonal reaction. We found that the reaction proceeded in high yield within aqueous media, and displayed rate enhancements that were 1-2 orders of magnitude faster than analogous reactions involving azides. The scope and kinetics of SPANC was evaluated in model reactions of various nitrones (acyclic and cyclic) with cyclooctynes, with the purpose of identifying stable nitrones that displayed intrinsically faster kinetics than azides in strain-promoted cycloadditions with cyclooctynes. Cyclic nitrones displayed good stability and exceptionally fast reactivity in these reactions. The SPANC reaction exhibited high selectivity in the presence of biological nucleophilic amino acid side chains and the presence of biological media did not adversely affect the reaction. We have utilized SPANC for highly specific labelling of proteins in vitro and for imaging ligand-receptor interactions on the surfaces of live cancer cells. The high selectivity, fast reaction rate, and aqueous compatibility of SPANC makes the reaction suitable for a variety of in vivo biological imaging applications.

Azidoperfluoroalkany: Syntéza a Aplikace / Azidoperfluoroalkanes: Synthesis and ApplicationBlastik, Zsófia Eszter January 2019 (has links)
The incorporation of the trifluoromethyl and perfluoroalkyl motifs into organic compounds has been a hot topic in synthetic organofluorine chemistry. There is a plethora of methods for the introduction of the CF3 moiety at carbon, oxygen and sulfur centers. In sharp contrast, methods for synthesizing N-trifluoromethyl and N-perfluoroalkyl compounds are very limited and new approaches are highly sought-after. The scarcity of these compounds prompted us to develop reagents capable of transferring the perfluoroalkyl unit to nitrogen atom. To fulfil this purpose, we have regarded azidoperfluoroalkanes as ideal reagents, therefore, this thesis is concerned with the synthesis and applications of these azides. The first part describes the preparation of azidoperfluoroalkanes. Upon activation by cesium fluoride, TMSCF3 transfers the trifluoromethyl group to an electrophilic azide to produce the desired azidotrifluoromethane. Longer carbon chain azidoperfluoroalkanes were prepared in a similar way, starting from the corresponding organosilane. A different synthetic strategy was applied for the preparation of azidopentafluoroethane where the perfluoroalkyl anion was generated from pentafluoroethane with n BuLi, followed by the addition of tosyl azide. The isolation of these fluorinated azides was...

Nouvelles méthodes de synthèse et de fonctionnalisation d'hétérocycles par catalyse photorédox et organocatalyse / New methods for the synthesis and the functionalization of heterocyclic compundsJarrige, Lucie 13 July 2018 (has links)
Les hétérocycles constituent une des classes les plus importantes de composés chimiques. Ces motifs structuraux sont les éléments clés d’une large gamme de produits naturels possédant des activités biologiques ou thérapeutiques. Toutes ces raisons expliquent le vif intérêt suscité par le développement de nouvelles méthodes de synthèse d'hétérocycles au sein de la communauté scientifique. Avec une volonté de réduire toujours plus l'empreinte environnementale de nos recherches, notre laboratoire vise à développer de nouvelles méthodologies de synthèse efficaces plus vertes et respectueuses de l'environnement. Ainsi, mes travaux de thèse ont fait appel à deux thématiques largement étudiées au sein de notre laboratoire que sont la catalyse photorédox et l'organocatalyse. Dans une première partie, l'utilisation de la catalyse photorédox comme outils pour la synthèse et la fonctionnalisation d'hétérocycles sera détaillée. Des motifs hétérocycliques originaux ont ainsi été préparés avec de bons rendements et dans des conditions réactionnelles très douces. La deuxième partie est quant à elle consacrée à la synthèse d'hétérocycles azotés énantioenrichis grâce à des réactions énantiosélectives organocatalysées d'aza-Diels-Alder à demande inverse d'électrons. En effet, la demande toujours plus accrue en composés optiquement actifs par l'industrie chimique et pharmaceutique explique le fort engouement pour le développement de méthodes de synthèse asymétriques. Ainsi, les procédés développés fournissent de nouvelles voies d'accès à des structures hétérocycliques chirales complexes avec d'excellents résultats en termes d'efficacité mais aussi de stéréosélectivité. / Heterocycles are one of the most important classes of chemical compounds. These structural scaffolds are the key elements of a wide range of natural products with biological or therapeutic activities. As a result, a great deal of research carried out in chemistry is devoted to development of new heterocycle synthesis methods. With a desire to further reduce the environmental footprint of our research, our laboratory aims to develop new methodologies for effective synthesis, more green and environmentally friendly. Thus, my thesis works lie on two themes widely studied in our laboratory that are photoredox catalysis and organocatalysis. In the first part, the use of photoredox catalysis as an efficient tool for the synthesis and functionalization of heterocycles is detailed. Original heterocyclic units have thus been prepared in good yields and under mild reaction conditions. The second part is devoted to the synthesis of enantioenriched nitrogen-containing heterocycles through organocatalyzed enantioselective inverse electron-demand aza-Diels-Alder reactions. Indeed, the increasing demand of optically pure compounds by the chemical and pharmaceutical industry explains the strong craze for the development of asymmetric synthesis methods. Thus, the developed processes provide new access routes to complex chiral heterocyclic structures with excellent results in terms of efficiency as well as stereoselectivity.

Développement de réactions énantiosélectives organocatalysées pour la synthèse de molécules cycliques énantioenrichies / Development of asymmetric organocatalyzed reactions for the synthesis of enantioenriched cyclic moleculesGelis, Coralie 23 November 2018 (has links)
Le développement de méthodes de synthèse asymétrique est très important pour l’accès à des molécules à visées thérapeutiques. Dans ce contexte, nous nous sommes intéressés à l’utilisation d’organocatalyseurs chiraux pour la synthèse de molécules cycliques énantioenrichies. Dans une première partie sont présentées des réactions de cycloadditions formelles (3+2), (4+2) et (4+3) à partir d’ènecarbamates ou de diènecarbamates catalysées par des acides phosphoriques chiraux. Ces derniers étant bifonctionnel, ils permettent l’activation des deux partenaires de cycloaddition menant à la synthèse d’indolines, de 2,3-dihydrobenzofuranes, de benzoquinones carbonannulées, de cyclohepta[b]indoles et de tétrahydroquinolines de façon hautement stéréosélective. Dans une seconde partie, nous nous sommes intéressés à l’utilisation de composés d’iode hypervalent chiraux comme organocatalyseurs. En effet, ces composés présentent une réactivité intéressante tout en étant stable et faiblement toxique. Ainsi, leur utilisation dans une réaction de lactonisation à partir de substrats flexibles a permis l’obtention de divers hétérocycles avec de bons résultats. / The development of new enantioselective methodologies is essential for the synthesis of bioactive compounds. In this context, we were interested in using organocatalysts for the synthesis of enantioenriched cyclic molecules. In a first part will be describe chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed (3+2), (4+2) and (4+3) formal cycloadditions using enecarbamate or dienecarbamate. These catalysts are bifunctional and can interact with both cycloaddition partners leading to the synthesis of 2,3-dihydrobenzofuranes, carboannulated benzoquinones, cyclohepta[b]indoles and tetrahydroquinolines with high stereocontrol. In a second phase, we were interested in using chiral hypervalent iodine as organocatalyst. Theses compounds present interesting reactivity while being stable and not very toxic. Their use permits us to develop a lactonisation starting from flexible substrate and led to the synthesis of various heterocycles with good results.

Photocatalyse et organocatalyse comme outils innovants pour la synthèse de molécules complexes / Photocatalysis and organocatalysis as innovative tools for the synthesis of complex moleculesLevitre, Guillaume 08 November 2019 (has links)
Face aux enjeux environnementaux actuels, la catalyse est devenue un outil majeur pour la synthèse de molécules complexes et à visées thérapeutiques. Dans ce contexte, nous nous sommes intéressés au développement de nouvelles méthodes de synthèses innovantes, efficaces, sans métaux ou activées par la lumière visible. Ainsi, mes travaux de thèse ont fait appel à deux thématiques largement étudiées au sein de notre laboratoire que sont la catalyse photorédox et l'organocatalyse. Dans ce manuscrit, la première partie porta sur la conception de réactions multicomposants photocatalysées pour la synthèse de structures trifluorométhylées avec de bons rendements. La partie suivante a été consacrée au développement et à l’évaluation de nouveaux photocatalyseurs supportés, robustes et recyclables. La troisième partie présenta l’élaboration de réactions de cyloadditions formelles (4+3) et (4+2), catalysées aux acides phosphoriques chiraux pour une synthèse efficace, énantiosélective et diastéréosélective de cyclohepta[b]indoles et de spiroindolines. Dans la quatrième partie, une stratégie combinant l’organocatalyse asymétrique et la photocatalyse pour la synthèse de tryptamines α-substituées β-aminées potentiellement biologiquement actives a été décrite. Enfin, l’élaboration de nouveaux composés d’iode hypervalent chiraux et leur évaluation en tant qu’organocatalyseurs fût rapportées dans la dernière partie de ce manuscrit de thèse. / In front of current environmental challenges, catalysis has become a major tool for the synthesis of complex and therapeutic molecules. In this context, we have focused on the development of new synthesis methods that are innovative, efficient, metal-free or activated by visible light. Thus, my thesis work has involved two themes that have been widely studied in our team: photoredox catalysis and organocatalysis. In this manuscript, the first part focused on the conception of photocatalyzed multicomponent reactions for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated structures with good yields. The following section devoted to the design and evaluation of new supported, robust and recyclable photocatalysts. The third part presented the formulation of formal (4+3) and (4+2) cyloaddition reactions, catalyzed with chiral phosphoric acids for an effective, enantio- and diastereo-selective synthesis of cyclohepta[b]indoles and spiroindolines. In the fourth part, a strategy combining asymmetric organocatalysis and photocatalysis for the synthesis of potentially biologically active α-substituted β-amino tryptamines was described. Finally, the elaboration of new chiral hypervalent iodine compounds and their evaluation as organocatalysts was reported in the last part of this thesis manuscript.

Novel chiral phosphonium ionic liquids as solvents and catalysts for cycloadditions : investigation of the Diels-Alder reaction of a series of dienes and dienophiles in novel chiral phosphonium ionic liquidsYu, Jianguo January 2009 (has links)
The use of ionic liquids (ILs) as both reagents and solvents is widely recognised. ILs offer a number of advantages compared to regular molecular solvents. These advantages include: chemical and thermal stability, no measurable vapour pressure, no or lower toxicity, non-flammability, catalytic ability, high polarity and they can be recycled. There are a number of research groups investigating the various applications of this reaction medium and most studies have focused on solvents derived from the imidazolium cation. The use of the imidazolium-based ILs in the Diels-Alder reaction has been studied in detail and higher yields compared to conventional methods have been reported. The IL affects the rate and interesting selectivities have been observed. However, not much attention has been paid to the scope and limitations of phosphonium ILs (PILs). Therefore the focus of this thesis is the synthesis and application of novel chiral PILs as environmentally benign, task-specific solvents for the Diels-Alder reaction. In addition, this research seeks alternative ways to eliminate the use of toxic heavy metal catalysts and to exploit methodologies which reduce the energy consumption of the Diels-Alder reaction. A series of CILs were synthesised from the chiral pool and they were characterised by thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry and spectroscopy. They were then investigated as solvents and catalysts in the Diels-Alder reactions of a series of dienes (cyclopentadiene, isoprene, 2,3-dimethylbuta-1,3-diene, furan, pyrrole, N-methyl pyrrole) and dienophiles (methyl acrylate, methyl vinyl ketone, acrylonitrile, dimethyl maleate, acrolein, dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate, maleic anhydride and maleimide). Investigation of the effect of PILs in the presence of three heterogeneous catalysts Al2O3, SiO2 and K-10 montmorillonite were studied. Ultrasound and microwave-assisted Diels-Alder reactions in the PILs, in the absence and presence of the catalysts, were also studied. The reactions of these prototypical substrates illustrated that the solvents are indeed task-specific.

Les germènes : sources d'hétérocycles organo-matalliquesEch-Cherif El-Kettani, Sakina 12 March 2005 (has links) (PDF)
Le travail développé dans ce mémoire est une contribution à l'étude de la réactivité de dérivés doublement liés du germanium. Nous avons réussi au cours de ce travail, d'une part à synthétiser le premier aminoester a-germanié cyclique stable ainsi que son homologue phosphoré; nous avons montré d'autre part à travers quelques exemples, que grâce à sa structure originale, le germène Mes2Ge=CR2 (Mes = 2,4,6-triméthylphényl, CR2 = fluorénylidène) peut se comporter, en fonction des nitriles qui lui sont confrontés, comme une base, un réactif dipolaire 1,2 ou un hétérodiène. Cette ambivalence démontre le riche potentiel du germène comme synthon. Ce germène est un composé hyperréactif: ainsi de nombreux hétérocycles de structure inédite - difficilement accessibles par d'autres voies - ont été obtenus par des réactions de cycloaddition [2+2] ou [2+3] entre ce dernier et divers substrats insaturés tels que les isocyanates et isothiocyanates, les nitroalkyles et le disulfure de carbone. Nos résultats montrent donc que ce dérivé à double liaison germanium-carbone constitue une "brique moléculaire" de choix en synthèse organométallique et hétérocyclique.
