To study the functions of glycoconjugates in biological systems reliable and efficient protocols for glycoconjugate synthesis are needed. To reach this goal we have developed methods for solid-phase synthesis of glycoconjugates that can be monitored with gel-phase 19F spectroscopy using fluorinated linkers, building blocks, and protecting groups. We have developed a new fluorine containing linker suitable for solid-phase synthesis of glycoconjugates. The linker was more acid-labile than similar linkers in order to enable cleavage under mild conditions of the target compound from the linker resin.  A carbamate-based strategy has been applied to attach a spacer carrying an amino group to a fluorinated Wang linker for synthesis of amino-functionalized glycoconjugates using thioglycoside donors with fluorinated protective groups. Cleavage from the solid support was performed with trifluoroacetic acid and subsequent protecting group removal gave the target compound. The terminal amine was conjugated with didecyl squarate and this derivative can be attached to various proteins and solid surfaces carrying primary or secondary amines. To evaluate this methodology we have immobilized glycoconjugates in amino-functionalized microtiter plates and successfully probed them with lectin. In addition, a novel fluorine containing protecting group has been designed, synthesized and evaluated. The protecting group was used for protection of the unreactive 4-OH in a galactose building block that was applied in the synthesis of 6-aminohexyl galabioside and was removed with TBAF in THF. Adenovirus serotype 8 (Ad8), Ad19, and Ad37 cause the severe ocular infection, epidemic keratoconjunctivities (EKC). During infection, the adenoviruses interact with sialic acid containing glycoconjugates on the epithelial cells via fiber structures extending from the viral particles. The virus particle most likely binds to the host cell in a multivalent way by simultaneously using multiple fiber proteins and binding sites. Multivalent sialic acid containing conjugates could efficiently inhibit Ad37 cell attachment and subsequent infection of human corneal epithelial (HCE) cells. Three compact tri- and tetravalent sialic acid conjugates were prepared and evaluated as inhibitors of adenoviral host cell attachment and subsequent infection and all conjugates were potent as anti-adenoviral agents. The conjugates can readily be synthesized from accessible starting materials. A crystal structure of the Ad37 fiber knob protein and the trivalent sialic acid conjugate showed that the three binding sites were all occupied by one sialic acid residue each.

This dissertation reports the synthesis and characterization of semi-fluorinated polymers derived from the polymerization of bisphenols with fluoroalkenes. A series of diverse bisphenols were chosen from popular commercial bisphenols and new polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) derived bisphenols requiring synthesis. Step-growth condensation polymerization of bisphenols with three different fluoroalkene types was performed while probing polymerization conditions and the structure/properties relationship of the resulting fluoropolymers. The fluoroalkene monomers were chosen from bis(trifluorovinyloxy)biphenyl (TFVE), perfluorocyclohexene (PFCH), and perfluoro acyclic monomers, namely, perfluoro(4-methyl-2-pentene) and 1-perfluoroheptene to undergo this chemistry. This work is divided into four parts based on the polymerization methodology. The first section focuses on the development of a new class of fluorinated arylene vinylene ether (FAVE) and their chain extended polymers prepared via base-catalyzed step-growth polymerization of PAH bisphenols with the TFVE monomer. These reactions afforded polymers containing controlled terminal and enchained fluoroalkenylenes for latent reactivity such as post polymerization functionalization, chain extension, and/or crosslinking. In general, these PAH cores resulted in polymers with improved thermal properties The second portion describes the investigation of step-growth addition/elimination polymerizations of PAH bisphenols and PFCH to prepare a new class of fluoropolymers containing alternating rigid PAH linkages and enchained PFCH vinylene ether moieties in the backbone. The third section covers the preparation and characterization of semi-fluorinated poly(aryl ether sulfone)s by nucleophilic addition/elimination reactions of PFCH with sulfone bisphenols. From commercially bisphenols combined with PAH bisphenols, we introduced the industrially valuable and property enhancing diaryl sulfone unit in a series of semi-fluorinated copolymers. This modular approach greatly expands access to partially fluorinated aryl ether sulfone polymers intended for high performance applications in optoelectronics, separation/purification membranes, and composites. Finally, in the fourth section, a new class of semifluorinated polymers was synthesized via nucleophilic addition/elimination reactions of acyclic perfluoroalkenes with bisphenols. In particular, environmental concerns for biopersistent and highly regulated perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is the driver for using perfluoroheptene, which is derived cleanly by the decarboxylation of these pollutants in one step. This provided a new class of semi-fluorinated materials with promising properties including thermal stable, processability, and transparent film formation.

Ce travail est consacré à la préparation de matériaux mésoporeux à partir de cristaux liquides formés avec des tensioactifs fluorés selon le mécanisme transcriptif LCT. Les paramètres de synthèse ont été optimisés pour la préparation de silices mésostructurées à partir de la phase hexagonale du système eau/C8F17C2H4(OCH2CH2)9OH. Les résultats montrent une corrélation entre le diamètre des pores des matériaux et les diamètres hydrophobes mesurés dans les cristaux liquides. L'incorporation de TiO2 dans une matrice silicatée selon la méthode de coprécipitation a été réalisée en utilisant soit des micelles (mécanisme d'auto-assemblage coopératif CTM), soit la phase hexagonale du système C8F17C2H4(OCH2CH2)9OH/eau (mécanisme transcriptif LCT). Dans les deux cas, l'incorporation de titane conduit à une perte de la structure et à une diminution de la surface spécifique. L'utilisation du mécanisme CTM favorise la formation de TiO2 anatase en surface du matériau, tandis que pour le mécanisme LCT, la substitution du silicium par le titane au coeur du matériau a été mise en évidence. Des films minces mésostructurés à base de TiO2 ont été réalisés à partir de la méthode EISA. Les analyses par diffraction des rayons X à incidence rasante couplées à des mesures de réflectivité ont permis de mettre en évidence la structure des films et de déterminer les épaisseurs des couches qui constituent les films. Enfin, une méthode originale de synthèse de matériaux mésoporeux organisés à base de TiO2 a été développée. La précipitation de TiO2 dans la mésophase hybride est déclenchée à l'aide d'un traitement par NH3 (g). La structure des matériaux est conservée après l'étape de calcination laquelle permet de cristalliser TiO2 en phase anatase. L'activité photocatalytique de ces matériaux a ensuite été testée sur la réaction de photodégradation du méthylorange / This work deals with the preparation of mesoporous materials from fluorinated liquid crystals via the LCT mechanism. Synthesis parameters have been optimized for the preparation of ordered mesoporous silica with the hexagonal H1 phase of water/C8F17C2H4(OCH2CH2)9OH system. Results show a correlation between pore diameters of materials and hydrophobic diameters measured in liquid crystals. According to the coprecipitation method, incorporation of TiO2 in a silica matrix, synthesized using micelles (via the cooperative templating mechanism CTM) or the hexagonal phase of C8F17C2H4(OCH2CH2)9OH/water system (via liquid crystal templating mechanism LCT). Both pathways lead to a loss of mesopore ordering and a decrease of the specific surface area when titania content increases. If materials are prepared via CTM mechanism TiO2 is present on the surface whereas TiO2 is in the bulk when LCT mechanism is used. Mesoporous thin films have been prepared via EISA method. Grazing incidence small angle X-Ray scattering and reflectivity analysis have been used to define the structure of films and the thickness of the different layers. Finally an original method has been developed for the preparation of ordered titania mesoporous materials. Precipitation of titania in the hybrid mesophase is activated by a NH3 treatment. The structure is preserved after calcination step which allow the formation of TiO2 anatase. Photocatalytic activity of these materials has been tested on the photodegradation of methylorange

Le tissu osseux est caractérisé par sa matrice minéralisée qui est soumise à des activités de formation et de résorption assurant son renouvellement et son remaniement tout au long de la vie. En cas de lésions, l’os est capable de se réparer naturellement de façon à rétablir son intégrité et ses propriétés physiques. Cependant, certaines pathologies ou interventions chirurgicales peuvent aboutir à des pertes massives de substance osseuse et le processus naturel d’autoréparation est alors insuffisant. En première intention, la greffe osseuse est envisagée (autogreffe et allogreffe), néanmoins, du fait d’une disponibilité réduite et des risques de rejet et de transmission d’agents infectieux, cette technique n’est pas réalisable dans toutes les situations cliniques. Le chirurgien peut alors avoir recours à des biomatériaux ostéoconducteurs mais ceux-ci ne sont utilisables que dans le cas de comblement de défauts de petite taille car ils sont simplement un support passif à la néoformation osseuse. Ces limites pourraient être dépassées grâce au concept d’ingénierie tissulaire, en concevant des biomatériaux innovants ayant un fort pouvoir ostéogène conféré notamment par des facteurs de croissance ou des cellules ostéoprogénitrices. Dans notre travail, nous avons cherché à mettre au point un nouveau produit d’ingénierie tissulaire permettant la réparation de défauts osseux. La stratégie envisagée repose sur l’association d’un support tridimensionnel et de cellules souches adultes dérivées du tissu adipeux humain (ASC). L’originalité du système provient de la matrice tridimensionnelle, qui est un hydrogel thermosensible composé de monomère synthétique Glycosyl-Nucléoside-Fluoré (GNF) de faible poids moléculaire. Dans le domaine de la régénération osseuse, les hydrogels cellularisés sont généralement utilisés comme matrice associée à des molécules ostéogéniques (BMP2, Béta-Glycérophosphate) ou à des ions (Calcium : Ca2+, Phosphate : PO42-) pour permettre la differenciation ostéoblastique des cellules encapsulées dans le gel. Cependant, dans notre travail, nous n’avons pas fait appel à ces facteurs ostéogéniques. Notre étude a révélé que l’hydrogel de GNF possède les critères essentiels pour être utilisé en clinique : la non-toxicité, la biocompatibilité, la biodégradabilité, l’injectabilité et la biointégration. Des injections de complexe gel/ASC réalisées en site ectopique chez l’animal ont démontré que le gel se forme in situ en moins de 20 minutes et que les cellules encapsulées ont survécu pendant plusieurs mois. In situ, les ASC se sont différerenciées en ostéoblastes matures, exprimant la phosphatase alcaline et l’ostéocalcine et synthétisant une matrice extracellulaire riche en phosphate de calcium. Ces travaux ont donc permis de développer un produit d’ingénierie tissulaire innovant, associant un support tridimensionnel, l’hydrogel de GNF, à une composante cellulaire, les ASC. Cette matrice cellularisée apparaît prometteuse comme système injectable pour des applications cliniques de régénération osseuse. / Bone tissue is characterized by its mineralized matrix which is subject to formation and resorption activities ensuring its renewal and remodeling throughout the life. In case of damage, the bone can repair itself naturally to restore its integrity and its physical properties. Nevertheless, some pathologies or surgical procedures can lead to massive loss of bone and the natural process of self-repair is insufficient. First line, the bone graft is considered (autograft and allograft), however, due to reduced availability and risks of rejection and transmission of infectious agents, this technique is not feasible in all clinical situations. The surgeon can then make use of osteoconductive biomaterials but these are only usable in the case of filling of small defects because they are simply passive scaffold for bone formation. These limits may be exceeded through the concept of tissue enginee- ring, designing innovative biomaterials with high osteogenic power conferred by particular growth factors or osteoprogenitor cells. In our work we seek to develop a new product of tissue engineering to repair bone defects. The proposed strategy is based on the combination of a three-dimensional scaffold and adult stem cells derived from human adipose tissue (ASC). The originality of this system comes from the three-dimensional matrix, which is a thermosensitive hydrogel composed of synthetic monomeric Glycosyl-Nucleoside-Fluorinated (GNF) low molecular weight. In the field of bone regeneration, hydrogels are generally used as cellularized matrix molecules associated with osteogenic (BMP2, Beta-Glycerophosphate) or ions (Calcium : Ca2+, Phosphate : PO42-) to allow osteoblast differentiation of cells encapsulated in the gel. However, in our work, we have not used these osteogenic factors. Our study revealed that the hydrogel of GNF has the essential criteria to be used in clinical practice : non-toxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, injectability and biointegration. Injections of gel/ASC complex performed in animal ectopic site have showed that the gel is formed in situ within 20 minutes and encapsulated cells survived and proliferated for several months. In situ, ASC were differentiated into mature osteoblasts expressing alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin and synthesizing an extracellular matrix rich in calcium phosphate. So, this work has allowed the development of an innovative product for tissue engineering, combining a three-dimensional scaffold, the GNF based hydrogel, a cellular component, the ASC. This cellularized matrix appears promising as injection system for clinical applications of bone regeneration.

Neste trabalho, enzimas álcool-desidrogenases provenientes de fungos marinhos e a lipase imobilizada de Candida antarctica foram utilizadas para produção de compostos de interesse sintético e biológico. No capítulo 1, enzimas álcool-desidrogenases de fungos isolados da alga marinha Bostrychia radicans foram empregadas em reações de redução de cetonas fluoradas 1-5. Os fungos identificados como Botryosphaeria sp. CBMAI 1197, Eutypella sp. CBMAI 1196, Hidropisphaera sp. CBMAI 1194 e Xylaria sp. CBMAI 119 atuaram como biocatalisadores nestas reações levando à produção de álcoois com elevada pureza enantiomérica. O fungo Botryosphaeria sp. CBMAI 1197 destacou-se frente aos demais microrganismos, produzindo os álcoois (S)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-feniletanol (1a) e (R)-1-(2,4,5-trifluorofenil)etanol (3a) com excelentes conversões (100% e 97%) e excessos enantioméricos (ee >99%). Este fungo também apresentou enzimas álcool-desidrogenases ativas frente a cetonas dicarboniladas 4-5, produzindo os álcoois 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-fenil-1,3-butanodiol (4a) e 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-naftalenil)-1,3-butanodiol (5a) com 100% de conversão em ambos os casos e com purezas enantioméricas respectivas a 99% e 97%. Este foi o primeiro estudo realizado no Brasil com fluorocetonas dicarboniladas e com os fungos isolados da alga marinha Bostrychia radicans. No capítulo 2, a lipase comercial de Candida antarctica foi o biocatalisador empregado em reações de aminólise entre os ésteres linoleato de etila (1) e salicilato de etila (3), a amina graxa N-dodecilamina (2) e os aminoálcoois (4-9). A amina graxa N-dodecilamina (2) também foi utilizada em reações com o linoleato de etila (1), onde a lipase de Candida antarctica produziu a respectiva amida graxa 10 com rendimentos superiores a 95%. Os aminoálcoois foram selecionados para reações com o salicilato de etila (3), onde a lipase exibiu quimiosseletividade pelo grupo amino, produzindo predominantemente amidas fenólicas (12-19) com rendimentos entre 23-68%. A enzima CALB apresentou quimiosseletividade reduzida na reação com o 5-aminopentanol (6) onde os produtos amida 14 e éster 15 foram obtidos com rendimentos de 44 e 33%, respectivamente. O produto 2-hidroxi-N-(2-hidroxipropil)benzamida (19) foi obtido com rendimento superior a 90% a partir da reação catalisada pela lipase de Candida antarctica. Este produto foi selecionado como intermediário para a síntese de uma molécula hidrofóbica 21 que apresenta o éster oleato de etila em sua constituição. O produto 21 foi obtido com 75% de rendimento. As amidas fenólicas 12-21 produzidas neste trabalho são derivadas do ácido linoleico (ômega 6) e do ácido salicílico, os quais apresentam propriedades emolientes e antioxidantes. Estes compostos são interessantes para a formulação de produtos cosméticos de aplicação cutânea. Neste processo biotecnológico as reações foram conduzidas na ausência de solventes orgânicos, evitando o tratamento de solventes voláteis e a formação de subprodutos. Os compostos foram analisados por Cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência e caracterizados por RMN (1H, 13C), EMAR e IV. A aplicação de reações de biocatálise seja através de células microbianas ou de enzimas isoladas foram muito promissoras na síntese de compostos orgânicos de interesse como álcoois enantiomericamente puros ou amidas graxas. / In this work, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADHs) enzymes from marine fungi and immobilized lipase from Candida antarctica were employed for the production of compounds of biological and synthetic interest. In chapter 1, ADHs of fungi isolated from the marine alga Bostrychia radicans were used in reduction reactions of fluorinated ketones 1-5. The fungi identified as Botryosphaeria sp. CBMAI 1197, Eutypella sp. CBMAI 1196, Hidropisphaera sp. CBMAI 1194 and Xylaria sp. CBMAI 119 acted as biocatalysts in these reactions leading to production of alcohols with high enantiomeric purity. The fungus Botryosphaeria sp. CBMAI 1197 presented highlighted compared to other microorganisms producing the alcohols (S)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-phenylethanol (1a) and (R) -1 - (2,4,5-trifluorophenyl) ethanol (3a) with excellent conversions (100% and 97%) and enantiomeric excesses (ee > 99%). This fungus also exhibited ADHs enzymes active with dicarbonylateds ketones, leading to the production of the alcohols 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenylbutane-1,3-diol (4a) and 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)butane-1,3-diol -1,3-butanediol (5a) with conversions of 100% in both cases and enantiomeric excess of 99%-97%, respectively. This was the first study conducted with dicarbonilated fluoroketones 4-5 and with fungi isolated from the marine alga Bostrychia radicans in Brazil. In chapter 2, immobilized lipase from Candida antarctica was used as biocatalyst in the aminolysis reaction between esters of ethyl linoleate (1) and ethyl salicylate (3), the fatty amine N-dodecylamine (2) and the aminoalcohols (4-8). Six aminoalcohols were selected for reactions with ethyl salicylate (3), where the lipase exhibited chemoselectivity by the amino groups, producing predominantly phenolic amides in yields of 23-63%. The CALB exhibited um reduction in chemoselectivity in the reaction with 5-aminopentanol (6) where the amide 14 and ester 15 products were obtained with 44% and 33% yields. The product 2-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxypropyl) benzamide (19) was obtained in yield greater than 90% from the reaction catalyzed by lipase from Candida antarctica. This product was selected as reagente for the synthesis of a hydrophobic molecule 21 presenting ester ethyl oleate in its constitution. The product 21 was obtained in 75% yield. The phenolic amides 12-21 produced in this work are derived from linoleic acid (omega 6) and salicylic acid, which presents emollient and antioxidants properties. These compounds are interesting for the formulation of cosmetic products for skin application. In this biotechnological process, the reactions were carried out under solvent-free conditions and vacum, avoiding the treatment of volatile solvents and by-product formation. The compounds were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography and characterized by NMR (1H, 13C), IR and HRMS. Applying biocatalysis reactions, either through microbial cells or isolated enzymes were promising for the synthesis of organic compounds such as enantiomerically pure alcohols and fatty phenolic amides.

Oxygenierungs- und Oxidationsreaktionen sind in unserem Alltag allgegenwärtig und von großer Bedeutung. Sie finden Anwendung von der Natur bis hin zur Industrie. Der Einsatz von O2 als Sauerstoffquelle bzw. Oxidationsmittel ist besonders erstrebenswert. Die Erforschung der Aktivierung von O2 an Übergangsmetallkomplexen und Untersuchung der Reaktivität der resultierenden Verbindung ist von großer Bedeutung für das Verständnis dieser Reaktionen und Mechanismen. In dieser Arbeit wurde zunächst der Komplex trans-[Ir(4-C5F4N)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2] synthetisiert, welcher mit dem 4-C5F4N- und dem CNtBu-Liganden stabilisierende Komponenten und wertvolle analytische Sonden enthält. Ausgehend von dieser Iridium(I)-Verbindung konnte auf verschiedenen Wegen der Peroxidokomplex trans-[Ir(4-C5F4N)(O2)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2] erhalten und umfangreich charakterisiert werden. In Gegenwart von [Fe(C5H5)2][PF6] konnten Hinweise auf einen redoxkatalysierten Mechanismus gewonnen werden. Im nächsten Abschnitt konnte gezeigt werden, dass sich der Peroxidokomplex durch Bronstedsäuren aktivieren lässt. So wurde z.B. unter der Verwendung von Säuren wie HCl, CF3COOH oder HF die Bildung von H2O2 erzielt. Dabei entstehen die entsprechenden Iridium(III)-Komplexe mit den koordinierten Säureanionen. In Gegenwart von HCOOH werden ein Carbonatokomplex und H2 als Hauptprodukte gebildet und es konnten Hinweise zum Mechanismus dieser komplexen Reaktion gewonnen werden. Des Weiteren sind Lewissäuren und Elektrophile in der Lage, die metallgebundene Disauerstoffeinheit des Peroxidokomplexes zu aktivieren. Dazu wurden unter Anderem Silane und Borane eingesetzt. Im Fall von ClSiMe3 und BClCy2 konnten während der Reaktion Intermediate detektiert und analysiert werden. Tragen die Lewissäuren Chloratome wird die entsprechende Dichloridoiridium(III)-Verbindung gebildet. Durch Einsatz von BPh3 konnte eine veränderte Reaktivität erreicht werden und der Ausgangskomplex trans-[Ir(4-C5F4N)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2] zurückerhalten werden. / Oxygenation- and oxidation reactions are ubiquitous and of great importance to our daily life. They find application from nature to industry. The use of O2 as an oxygen source or oxidation reagent, respectively, is particularly desirable. The research on the activation of O2 at transition metal complexes and the investigations of the reactivity of the resulting compounds is of great significance for the understanding of these reactions and mechanisms. Herein, this work describes the synthesis of the complex trans-[Ir(4-C5F4N)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2], which incorporates stabilizing and valuable analytical elements provided by the 4-C5F4N and CNtBu ligands. Starting from this iridium(I) compound, the peroxido complex trans-[Ir(4-C5F4N)(O2)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2] could be synthesized using different methods. In the presence of [Fe(C5H5)2][PF6], indications for a redox catalyzed mechanism could be provided. The next chapter shows that Bronsted acids are capable of activating the peroxido complex. With the help of acids like HCl, CF3COOH or HF, for example, the formation of H2O2 was achieved. Thereby, the corresponding iridium(III) complexes with the coordinating anions are formed. In the presence of HCOOH, a carbonato complex and H2 are formed as main products and ideas for the mechanism of this complex reaction were indicated. Furthermore, Lewis acids and electrophiles have the ability to activate the metal bound dioxygen moiety of the peroxido complex. Silanes and boranes were used for this purpose amongst others. In case of ClSiMe3 and BClCy2, intermediates of the reactions could be detected and analysed. If the Lewis acids carry chloride atoms, the corresponding dichlorido iridium(III) compounds were formed. BPh3 enabled a different reactivity and allowed the isolation of the starting material trans-[Ir(4C5F4N)(CNtBu)(PiPr3)2].

L'addition catalysée des amines ou phosphines sur des substrats insaturés (alcènes, alcynes ou allènes) constitue une méthode efficace pour la production d’amines et phosphines à hautes valeurs ajoutées. Pour ces réactions, les complexes hétéroleptiques des métaux alcalino-terreux ont émergé comme des précatalyseurs effi caces. Cette thèse décrit la synthèse de complexes des alcalino-terreux supportés par des ligands aminoalcoolates fluorés de type [{RO}AeN(SiMe2H)2] ({RO} = aminoalcoolate fluoré; Ae = Ca, Sr). Des études par diffraction de rayons X montrent que ces complexes utilisent des interactions Ae···F–C and β-Si–H···Ae pour être cinétiquement inertes. Étonnamment, la somme de ces interactions non-covalentes dites secondaires est prédominante par rapport à la coordination d'éthers sur le centre métallique. En outre, les ligands aminoalcoolates fluorés ont été utilisés pour préparer de rares exemples de complexes Ae hétéroleptiques impliquant la coordination intramoléculaire de donneurs d'électrons π (i.e. alcènes et alcynes). Ainsi, pour la première fois, des complexes Ae stabilisés par des combinaisons d’interactions Ae···Cπ, Ae···F−C et β-Si−H···Ae ont été synthétisés. La nature de ces interactions a été sondée par des moyens spectroscopiques, cristallographiques et calculatoires (DFT). En revanche, nos efforts pour obtenir des complexes Ca–aryles ont conduit à la formation de complexes trinucléaires originaux présentant des interactions secondaires β-Si-H···Ca extrêmement fortes. Certains de ces complexes de calcium ont ensuite été testés en catalyse d’hydrophosphination du styrène avec la diphénylphosphine. Ils ont démontré des activités remarquables (TOF ≈ 50 h−1) en conditions douces, ainsi qu’une régiosélectivité de 100% vers la formation du produit d'addition anti-Markovnikov. En collaboration avec le Pr. M. Etienne et le Dr C. Dinoi du Laboratoire de Chimie de Coordination (Toulouse), un précatalyseur hétéroleptique de calcium supporté par un ligand tris(indazolyl)borate fluoré a été utilisé pour l’hydroamination intramoléculaire du 2,2-diméthylpent-4-en-1-amine, et a fait preuve d’une activité catalytique parmi les plus élevées à ce jour. / The catalysed additions of amines or phosphines across unsaturated substrates (alkenes, alkynes or allenes) constitute atom-efficient routes for the production of valuable fine chemicals such as amines and phosphines. For these reactions, heteroleptic alkaline-earth complexes have emerged as promising precatalysts. This PhD thesis describes the synthesis and characterisation of a series of alkaline-earth complexes of type [{RO}AeN(SiMe2H)2] supported by fluorinated aminoalkoxides ({RO} = fluorinated aminoalkoxide; Ae = Ca, Sr ). X-ray diffraction studies show that these complexes heavily involve Ae···F–C and β-Si–H···Ae secondary interactions to achieve kinetic stabilisation. Remarkably, these so-called secondary, non-covalent interactions can be more beneficial towards the stabilisation of the metallic species than the coordination of ethers onto the metal centre. Furthermore, fluorinated aminoalkoxo ligands were used to prepare rare examples of Ae heteroleptic complexes featuring intramolecular coordination from π donors (i.e. alkenes and alkynes). For the first time, Ae complexes stabilised by a combination of Ae···Cπ, Ae···F–C and β-Si–H···Ae interactions were described. The structural and electronic features of these unique complexes were probed by crystallographic, spectroscopic and computational (DFT) methods. The utilisation of aryl-containing ligands resulted in the formation of trinuclear complexes featuring a unique pattern of strong β-Si–H···Ca agostic interactions. Some of these calcium heteroleptic complexes were tested in the hydrophosphination of styrene and HPPh2. They displayed high activities (TOF ≈ 50 h–1) under mild conditions with 100% regioselectivity towards the anti-Markovnikov addition product. In a collaboration with Prof. M. Etienne and Dr. C. Dinoi from the Laboratoire de Chimie de Coordination (Toulouse), a heteroleptic calcium complex supported by a fluorinated tris(indazolyl)borate was used in the intramolecular hydroamination of 2,2-dimethylpent-4-en-1-amine, and it displayed excellent performances.

CBMAI 1197, Eutypella sp. CBMAI 1196, Hidropisphaera sp. CBMAI 1194 and Xylaria sp. CBMAI 119 acted as biocatalysts in these reactions leading to production of alcohols with high enantiomeric purity. The fungus Botryosphaeria sp. CBMAI 1197 presented highlighted compared to other microorganisms producing the alcohols (S)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-phenylethanol (1a) and (R) -1 - (2,4,5-trifluorophenyl) ethanol (3a) with excellent conversions (100% and 97%) and enantiomeric excesses (ee > 99%). This fungus also exhibited ADHs enzymes active with dicarbonylateds ketones, leading to the production of the alcohols 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenylbutane-1,3-diol (4a) and 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)butane-1,3-diol -1,3-butanediol (5a) with conversions of 100% in both cases and enantiomeric excess of 99%-97%, respectively. This was the first study conducted with dicarbonilated fluoroketones 4-5 and with fungi isolated from the marine alga Bostrychia radicans in Brazil. In chapter 2, immobilized lipase from Candida antarctica was used as biocatalyst in the aminolysis reaction between esters of ethyl linoleate (1) and ethyl salicylate (3), the fatty amine N-dodecylamine (2) and the aminoalcohols (4-8). Six aminoalcohols were selected for reactions with ethyl salicylate (3), where the lipase exhibited chemoselectivity by the amino groups, producing predominantly phenolic amides in yields of 23-63%. The CALB exhibited um reduction in chemoselectivity in the reaction with 5-aminopentanol (6) where the amide 14 and ester 15 products were obtained with 44% and 33% yields. The product 2-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxypropyl) benzamide (19) was obtained in yield greater than 90% from the reaction catalyzed by lipase from Candida antarctica. This product was selected as reagente for the synthesis of a hydrophobic molecule 21 presenting ester ethyl oleate in its constitution. The product 21 was obtained in 75% yield. The phenolic amides 12-21 produced in this work are derived from linoleic acid (omega 6) and salicylic acid, which presents emollient and antioxidants properties. These compounds are interesting for the formulation of cosmetic products for skin application. In this biotechnological process, the reactions were carried out under solvent-free conditions and vacum, avoiding the treatment of volatile solvents and by-product formation. The compounds were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography and characterized by NMR (1H, 13C), IR and HRMS. Applying biocatalysis reactions, either through microbial cells or isolated enzymes were promising for the synthesis of organic compounds such as enantiomerically pure alcohols and fatty phenolic amides.
