Depuis le début des années 2000, les Oxydes de Phosphine Secondaire (OPS) connaissent un regain d'intérêt en catalyse comme préligands des métaux de transitions. Alors que de nombreux complexes organométalliques associés à des OPS ont été préparés, caractérisés et utilisés en catalyse homogène, les complexes correspondant du ruthénium sont plus rares.Nous nous sommes intéressés à la synthèse et la caractérisation de nouveaux complexes de ruthénium(II) comportant un (ou plusieurs) ligand acide phosphineux (AP) (forme tautomère d'un OPS) puis au rôle du ligand dans un cycle catalytique. Le traitement de différentes sources de ruthénium par des OPS a permis d'isoler des séries de complexes de ruthénium [Ru]/OPS (coordination par l'oxygène) et [Ru]/AP (coordination par le phosphore). L'activité catalytique de ces complexes bien définis a été étudiée dans des réactions d'activation de liaisons C-H et de cycloisomérisation à partir d'alcynes ou d'ynamides. Lors de ces études, il a été montré l'influence des paramètres stéréoélectroniques du ligand lié au ruthénium au cours du processus catalytique.En marge de ces travaux, dans la continuité de notre intérêt pour la réactivité des ynamides, nous avons développé une nouvelle réactivité des ynamides avec les 1,3-dicétones cycliques catalysée au ruthénium, à l'or ou au palladium pour la synthèse d'alpha-alcoxy-énamides. / The past decade has witnessed a renewed interest for Secondary Phosphine Oxides (SPO) in catalysis as preligands of transition metals. While the coordination chemistry and catalytic activity of these species have been mainly studied with palladium and platinum, only few examples with ruthenium have been reported so far.We investigated the synthesis of new ruthenium(II) complexes associated to one or two phosphinous acid ligand (PA) (SPO tautomer) which were fully characterised. Then we were interested in the role played by the ligand during the catalytic cycle. The use of different ruthenium sources allowed us to isolate [Ru]/SPO complexes (oxygen coordinated) and [Ru]/PA complexes (phosphorous coordinated). We evaluated the catalytic activities of these well-defined complexes in C-H bond activation and cycloisomerisation from alkynes or ynamides. During the course of these studies, the influence of ligand stereoelectronic parameters in the catalytic process have been demonstrated.Moreover, in a side project, we explored a new reactivity of ynamides with cyclic 1,3-diketones catalysed by palladium, cationic gold or ruthenium complexes. This reactivity gives access to alpha-alkoxysubstituted enamides.

Compostos heterociclos estão muito presentes em nossas vidas, desde processos biológicos até em fármacos. Dentre esses compostos, os carbazóis, vem ultimamente se mostrando promissores como alternativa terapêutica para diversas doenças, principalmente para o câncer. Muitos carbazóis são produtos naturais, como é o caso das Claurailas A-D. Baseando-se na estrutura da Clauraila A, esse trabalho propôs o desenvolvimento de uma biblioteca de análogos desse alcaloide a fim de prospecção biológica. Para a síntese da Clauraila A foram estudadas condições ideais da ciclodeidrogenação da diarilamina precursora desse alcaloide, através da reação de Åkermark-Knölker. Para a obtenção dessa diarilamina, foi realizado uma otimização da reação de aminação de Buchwald-Hartwig. Com o processo otimizado, foram obtidos diversos carbazóis, com diferentes padrões de substituição, em rendimentos bons à moderados, entre eles estão os produtos naturais 6-metoximurraianine e Clausenal. O rendimento global obtido na síntese desses produtos naturais e da Clauraila A são semelhantes aos previamente descritos na literatura, no entanto, em nosso trabalho foi realizada a síntese deste alcaloide em número reduzido de etapas. Durante o processo de otimização da reação de Åkermark-Knölker foi demonstrado, pela primeira vez, o uso de acetilacetonato de paládio como fonte de paládio II alternativa ao acetato de paládio. Além disso, com esses resultados foi possível inferir o possível mecanismo dessa reação. Adicionalmente, após tentativas por diversas alternativas sintéticas, foram obtidos compostos dimetilcromenos a partir de aminofenóis utilizando prenal e ácido fenilborônico, que podem ser úteis na síntese de outros carbazóis, como a Clauraila B. / Heterocyclic molecules are very important class of compounds in biological processes and drugs designing. Among all of them, carbazoles show great applicability for treatment of several diseases, especially against cancer. Many carbazoles are natural products, and one of our interests is Clauraila A. This work is based on the Clauraila A structure to development of a library of carbazoles for biological applications. The optimal conditions of the Åkermark-Knölker cyclodehydrogenation of diarylamine was studied to obtaind the carbazole core. The diarylamines were obtained by the optimized Buchwald-Hartwig amination reaction. This synthetic strategy was used to obtain the range of carbazoles, with different substituents in good and moderate yields, including natural products 6-methoxymurrayanine and Clausenal. The overall yield obtained in the synthesis of the natural products were similar to those previously described in the literature, however, unlike the literature our synthesis involved a reduced number of steps to obtain the desired product. In the optimization step of Åkermark-Knölker reaction, we first applied palladium (II) acetylacetonate instead of palladium (II) acetate. Moreover, with the achieved results the possible mechanism of this reaction was proposed. Additionally, after several attempts, dimethylchromenos were obtained from aminophenols using prenal and phenylboronic acid, which will be useful in the synthesis of other carbazoles, such as Clauraila B.

Nesta tese são apresentados, em dois capítulos, os resultados da reatividade química de quinoxalinas e os estudos visando à síntese de quinona natural, a vegfrecina. Modificações específicas em estruturas privilegiadas, padrões estruturais relevantes para bioatividade, representam uma alternativa viável na busca de novos ligantes para alvos macromoleculares. Neste cenário, as quinoxalinas apresentam destacada importância no âmbito da química medicinal, sendo assim é de grande importância o desenvolvimento de metodologias de funcionalização que conduzam a diversidade molecular deste núcleo. Neste contexto, foram realizadas reações de ativação C - H, como uma estratégia para a síntese de derivados vinil quinoxalinicos, com base na abordagem de Fujiwara-Moritani. Os resultados obtidos com este estudo indicaram que a densidade eletrônica das olefinas utilizadas neste estudo foi determinante para o rendimento reacional. Assim, as reações envolvendo olefinas ricas em elétrons, resultaram em maior rendimento do produto alquenilado, alcançando 89%. A deoxidação ocorreu em rendimentos de 43 - 54%, levando a ampliação da coleção de compostos desenvolvidos neste projeto. Os compostos aqui desenvolvidos foram testados quanto à atividade antimicobacteriana, entretanto, nenhum deles apresentou resultados promissores. O segundo capítulo desta tese abordou a síntese da Vegfrecina, que possui seletividade de inibição dos receptores do fator de crescimento endotelial vascular (VEGFR), bloqueando a ativação de VEGFR-1 e VEGFR-2 e, consequentemente, interferindo na vascularização, proliferação e metástase tumoral. Nossa estratégia utilizou o intermediário chave 6-Bromo-5,8-dimetoxi-2,2-dimetil-2,3-dihidroquinazolin-4(1H)-ona em reações de aminação de Buchwald Hartwig com três anilinas diferentes. Embora tenhamos obtido três intermediários sintéticos inéditos, em bons rendimentos, a etapa de oxidação não foi promissora, impossibilitando a obtenção da Vegfrecina e de seus análogos. / The study of chemistry reactivity of quinoxalines and the study aiming total syntheses of natural quinone, vegfrecine, are shown in this thesis in two chapters. The specific modifications privileged scaffold represents a promising way following for new macromolecular ligands targets. Considering the great importance of quinoxaline core in medicinal chemistry, the development of efficient methodologies in orther to obtain molecular diversity have attracted large attention. In this context, using Fujiwara-Moritani approach the C-H activation reactions were performed as good strategy in synthesis of vinyl- quinoxaline derivatives. Our results indicated the importance of olefin electron density in the reaction yields. In this way, reactions involving high electron density olefines, results in the high alkenilated products, achieving 89% of yield. The deoxygenation process occurred in yields of 43 until 54. The compounds obtained were tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, however no primissing results were observed. The second chapter in this thesis show our attempt to total synthesis of Vegfrecine, that have inhibitory activity of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), Our strategy used the 6-bromo-5,8-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one in Buchwald Hartwig reaction with three different olefins. Although these new synthetic intermediates were obtained with good yield, the last step of oxidation didn\'t work. Therefore, it was not possible to obtain the Vegfrecine and its analogous.

L’objectif de ce travail est la synthèse de complexes contenant des ligands NHC protiques fonctionnalisés avec un groupement imine dans le but de développer des méthodologies de synthèse donnant accès à des ligands pNHC ainsi que la synthèse des groupes imidazolide anioniques liés par le C et leurs complexes homo et hétéro-dinucléaires. Dans le cas des imidazoles sans groupe fonctionnel, la déprotonation à l’aide de n-butyl lithium a permis l’obtention de (1-aryl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)lithium avec de bons rendements. La réaction de (1-aryl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)lithium avec [Ir(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 ou [Rh(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 a conduit à des complexes dinucléaires bipontés en C2,N3. Dans le cas de l’imidazole possédant une fonctionnalité imine, le complexe de l’Ir(I) lié au N de l’imidazole peut se tautomériser en complexe de l’Ir(I) imine avec un ligand pNHC suite à la réaction d’abstraction du chlorure à température ambiante, alors que la tautomérisation de l’analogue du Rh(I) nécessite une température de 110°C. La déprotonation des complexes de l’Ir(I) et Rh(I) liés par le N de l’imidazole avec addition de [Ir(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 ou de [Rh(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 in situ permet l’obtention de complexes homo et hétéro-dinucléaires. La métallation des sels d’imidazolium fonctionnalisés avec un groupement imine s’est avére être une méthode efficace pour la synthèse de complexes métallés ayant un ligand pNHC et a été étendue des complexes bidentes aux complexes chélatants pNHC. / The purpose of this work is the synthesis of complexes containing imine-functionalized protic NHC ligands in order to further develop synthetic methodologies giving access to pNHC, C-bound ‘anionic’ imidazolide, and homo- and heterodinuclear complexes. In the case of imidazoles without functional group, deprotonation with n-butyl lithium afforded (1-aryl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)lithium in good yield. Reaction of (1-aryl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)lithium with [Ir(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 or [Rh(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 yielded a doubly C2,N3-bridged dinuclear complex. In the case of imine-functionalized imidazole, the Ir(I) N-bound imidazole complex can tautomerize to Ir(I) imine-functionalized pNHC complex chloride abstraction at room temperature, while in the Rh(I) analog the tautomerization can be achieved at 110 °C. In situ deprotonation of the N-bound imidazole Ir(I) or Rh(I) complexes, followed by addition of [Ir(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 or [Rh(cod)(μ-Cl)]2 led to the isolation of homo- and heterodinuclear complexes. The metalation of imine-functionalized imidazolium salts is also an effective procedure for synthesis of pNHC metal complexes, and it was extended from bidentate to pincer-type pNHC complexes.

In the adaptation to the oxidative environment on earth, metals played a crucial role for the evolution of life. The presence of metals also allowed access to advanced functions due to their unique coordination sphere and reactivity. This thesis focused on exploiting these unique properties for further development of the field of dynamic chemistry – a field in which adaptation plays a central role as well. The first part of the thesis aimed to create a better understanding of multivalent effects in carbohydrate-lectin interactions. By reversible ligand coordination to zinc ions one of the nanoplatforms, the Borromean rings, could be selectively obtained. After carbohydrate functionalization the binding events were monitored by quartz crystal microbalance technology and compared to glycosylated fullerenes and dodecaamide cages. Overall, this investigation indicated that statistical and polyelectrolyte effects play a considerable role in the observed multivalent effects. The second part of the thesis aimed to design and synthesize a new catalyst for application in aqueous olefin metathesis. This afforded a ruthenium based catalyst that was applied in the self- and cross-metathesis of highly functionalized substrates, such as carbohydrates. In addition, it was shown that addition of a small amount of acetic acid prevented undesired double bond isomerization. The last part of the thesis aimed to explore new methods to discover transition metal catalysts. Dynamic exchange of directing groups generated a pool of potential substrates for C-H activation. Combining this pool of substrates with a pool of potential catalysts resulted in amplification of a reactive substrate/metal combination. By iterative deconvolution in combination with mass spectrometry, this “intermediate” could be identified from the mixture, proving applicability of this alternative approach to catalyst discovery. / <p>QC 20170809</p>

Les activités catalytiques de complexes du ruthénium et de l'iridium ont été examinées dans trois thématiques. De nouvelles phosphines chirales bifonctionnelles à groupement acide et les complexes métalliques correspondants ont été préparés. Nous avons montré que le nouveau ligand (S)-Sulfo-binepine est très efficace pour l'hydrogénation énantiosélective de cétones aromatiques catalysée par le ruthénium et l'hydrogénation énantiosélective de cétiminesaromatiques en présence de catalyseurs de l'iridium. Sur la base d'études mécanistiques, un mécanisme de sphère externe a été proposé pour l'hydrogénation de cétones. Dans le cas de l'hydrogénation de cétimines, les intermédiaires-clés ont été obtenus, ce qui a permis de proposer deux chemins réactionnels compétitifs pour expliquer les effets sur l'énantiosélectivité. Les fonctionnalisations d'amines cycliques sur l'atome d'azote et les carbones en α et β de l'hétéroatome ont été réalisées grâce à des processus de transfert d'hydrogène assistés par des catalyseurs du ruthénium et l'iridium à ligand phosphinesulfonate. / In this doctoral thesis, the catalytic activities of new ruthenium and iridium complexes have been examined in three major topics. New chiral phosphine-containing acidic bifunctional ligands and correspondingmetalcomplexes have been prepared. (S)-Sulfo-binepine was shown to be a very efficient novel ligand for ruthenium-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of aryl ketones and iridium-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of arylketimines. Based on mechanistic studies, outer-sphere mechanism was proposed for ketone hydrogenation. For ketimine hydrogenation, the key intermediate and resting species have been obtained, allowing the proposal of two competitive reaction pathways to explain the effects on enantioselectivity. N- and(α,β)-C-functionalization of cyclic amines have been achieved via borrowing hydrogen processes assisted by ruthenium and iridium phosphinesulfonate catalysts.

Certaines phycotoxines marines de la famille des spiroimines, comme la gymnodimine et les spirolides sont produites par des dinoflagellés et se concentrent dans les mollusques filtreurs. Puis, par transport vectoriel, elles peuvent atteindre les animaux marins et les êtres humains. Des études biologiques ont montré que ces toxines sont de puissants antagonistes des récepteurs nicotiniques de l’acétylcholine (nAChRs) et qu’elles présentent une spécificité modérée pour des sous-types de récepteurs. Au laboratoire, nous nous intéressons à la synthèse totale du 13-desméthyle spirolide C, dans le but de produire une plus grande quantité de cette molécule (que par extraction) afin d'étudier plus en détail son activité biologique. Afin d’atteindre ce but, deux stratégies seront présentées. La première faisant intervenir une réaction-clef de décarboxylation allylante asymétrique, permettant la formation stéréosélective d’un centre quaternaire. La seconde approche utilise une réaction de Diels-Alder intermoléculaire pour construire le même motif. Au cours de ces dernières années, les récents développements dans le domaine des couplages organométalliques ont permis de s’affranchir de la préfonctionnalisation d’une liaison C_H avant sa transformation en liaison C_C ou C_hétéroatome, par l’utilisation de catalyseurs à base de métaux de transition. Afin de pallier ce problème, une approche généralement employée, consiste à utiliser la proximité spatiale d’un hétéroatome chélatant (N, O, etc.), appelé groupement directeur (GD), qui permet de diriger la réaction vers une liaison C_H spécifique. Nous avons étudié l’application d’une réaction de type Heck dans la synthèse de squelettes de molécules biologiquement actives. Dans un second chapitre de ce manuscrit seront détaillés les récents avancements dans la synthèse d’hétérocycles par activation C_H, catalysée au rhodium (III). Ainsi, la synthèse de spirocycles carbonés, de spiropipéridines et d’azépinones seront présentés, accompagnées des considérations mécanistiques de ces réactions. / Some marine shellfish toxins in the spiroimine family like gymnodimine and spirolides are produced by dinoflagellates and can be transferred and concentrated in seafood then by vectorial transport they can reach marine animals and humans. Biological studies have shown that these toxins are potent antagonists of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and have a moderate selectivity for subtypes receptor. In the laboratory, we are interested in the total synthesis of gymnodimine and 13-desmethyl spirolide C in order to produce a larger quantity of these molecules (compared to isolation from dinoflagellates) to further investigate their biological activities. In this regard, we developed two complementary approaches to access the spiroimine pattern of these molecules. The first one is based on a decarboxylative asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction. The second uses an intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction.With the need of more sophisticated scaffolds for medicinal chemistry or total synthesis, the development of appropriate ortho-directed C_H activation reactions have proven recently to be crucial. Herein, we propose two simple and efficient intramolecular cyclisation reactions, involving a methoxy-amide directing group and a Rh(III)-catalysis. Synthesis of spiropiperidines and azepinones are presented.
