Neste contexto, as azalactonas são precursores interessantes, uma vez que podem atuar como aminoácidos protegidos e serem utilizadas na síntese de derivados de aminoácidos e heterociclos complexos. Neste trabalho são descritas a abertura e halogenação das azalactonas de Erlenmeyer-Plöchl sob uma abordagem organocatalítica, utilizando ácido canforsulfônico (ACS) e N-bromosuccinimida (NBS) como agente halogenante. A condição otimizada para obtenção do produto halogenado consistiu na utilização de 30 mol% de ACS, 1.2 equivalente de NBS e 4 mL de metanol, a 65°C por 7 horas, obtendo-se uma imina halogenada com 83% de rendimento. Devido as dificuldades encontradas durante a avaliação do escopo de substratos, investigou-se a redução one-pot da imina halogenada, entretanto não foi possível obter um aumento da razão diastereoisomérica no produto desejado. Diante dos contratempos encontrados na metodologia proposta, investigou-se o uso da catálise foto redox irradiada por luz visível na tentativa de halogenação do heterociclo azalactônico. Entretanto, ao utilizar esta abordagem, observou-se a homodimerização das azalactonas de Erlenmeyer-Plöchl ao invés da halogenação da mesma, levando a um produto de cicloadição [2+2]. Em diclorometano, a utilização do fotocatalisador de rutênio favoreceu a formação de um sistema tricíclico do tipo espiro. Já em meio metanólico, o fotocatalisador metálico favoreceu a formação do produto de abertura dos dois anéis azalactônicos com 59% de rendimento, enquanto que o uso do corante orgânico Eosina Y levou à formação de um cicloaduto assimétrico, com a abertura de apenas um dos anéis azalactônicos (40% de rendimento). Avaliou-se o escopo de substratos utilizando Eosina Y como fotocatalisador e os rendimentos obtidos foram de moderados a bons (12 a 78%). Todos os produtos foram caracterizados por RMN de 1H, 13C, e IV. / Halogenated amino acids are of great importance for both organic synthesis and biological areas, once these are valuable synthetic intermediates and presented as biologically functional products. In this context, azlactones are interesting precursors that can act as protected amino acids and have been used in the synthesis of amino acid derivatives and complex heterocycles as well. This work describes Erlenmeyer-Plöchl’s azlactone ring opening following by halogenation under an organocatalytic approach, using camphorsulfonic acid (CSA) and N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) as halogenating agent. The optimized reaction conditions for the halogenated product consisted on the use of 30 mol% CSA, 1.2 equivalent of NBS and 4 mL of methanol, at 65°C for 7 hours, to afford a halogenated imine with 83% of yield. Due to the difficulties in the substrate scope (purification process), a one-pot reduction of the halogenated imine was investigated, however, it was not possible to obtain a good diastereoisomeric ratio of the desired product. In view of setbacks encountered in the proposed methodology, the use of visible light photoredox catalysis in attempt to halogenate the azlactone heterocycle was investigated. However, using this approach, homodimerization of Erlenmeyer-Plöchl’s azlactones was observed instead of halogenation, leading to a cycloaddition [2+2] derived product. In dichloromethane, the use of ruthenium photocatalyst favored the formation of a tricyclic spiro type system. Switching to methanol as solvent, the metallic photocatalyst led the formation of the opening product with two azlactone rings, in 59% yield, whereas the organic dye Eosin Y conducted the formation of an asymmetric cycloadduct, with the ring opening of only one of the azlactone (40% yield). The substrate scope was evaluated using Eosin Y as photocatalyst and the products were isolated in yields ranging from 12 to 78%. All products were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C and IR.

Fotoredoxkatalys tillhandahåller möjligheter att utveckla nya hållbara kemiska reaktionsvägar. När fotokatalysatorn bestrålas med synligt ljus möjliggörs elektronöverföring till eller från substratet som i sin tur medför alstring av reaktiva fria radikaler. Kolradikaler, genererade med fotoredox-katalys från alkyloxalataktiverade alkoholer, har framgångsrikt kopplats till sulfinyliminer och möjliggör därigenom syntes av onaturliga α-aminosyror. Reaktionen utförs vid rumstemperatur och kräver endast extern energi i form av synligt ljus för att aktivera den iridium-baserade fotokatalysatorn. Den höga tillgängligheten av alkoholer utgör ett rimligt skäl för att använda dem som startmaterial. I detta projekt har tertiära alkoholer resulterat i framgångsrika reaktioner. / Photoredox catalysis provides opportunities to develop new sustainable chemical reaction pathways through single-electron transfer events and generation of reactive free-radical species. In this thesis carbon radicals, generated with photoredox catalysis from alkyl oxalate-activated alcohols, have successfully been coupled to sulfinyl imines and thereby enabling synthesis of unnatural α-amino acids. The reaction is performed at room temperature and only requires external energy in the form of visible light to activate the iridium-based photocatalyst. The abundance and availability of alcohols presents good reasons to use them as radical precursors. Under the developed reaction conditions, tertiary alcohols proved to be successful radical precursors, giving the desired product in good yield.

Fotoredoxkatalys har nyligen genomgått en renässans inom organisk kemi då metoden har möjliggjort framtagandet utav nya reaktionsvägar med milda reaktionsbetingelser genom att använda sig av synligt ljus. I det här arbetet undersöktes metodens bredd genom att kombinera metoden med väteatomöverföringskatalys för att funktionalisera C–H bindningar i α-position till heteroatomer och på så sätt skapa icke-naturliga α-aminosyror. Resultaten från detta arbete gav upp till 60% utbyte genom att kombinera dessa två katalysmetoder för substrat med Boc som skyddsgrupp, medan tertiära aminer inte krävde en väteatomöverföringskatalysator för kunna funktionaliseras. Den syntetiska metoden utan väteatomöverföringskatalys verkar dock inte vara applicerbara för sekundära aminer, men ser ut att fungera för C–H aktivering i α-position till svavelatomer vilket tyder på denna simplare metod utan väteatomsöverföring bör vara applicerbar för flera typer av substrat än för bara aminer / Photoredox catalysis has recently undergone a renaissance in the field of organic chemistry due the enabling of new reaction pathways under mild reaction conditions using visible light. In this work, the scope of this technology was explored by combining it with hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) to perform C–H functionalization in α-position to heteroatoms for synthesis of unnatural α-amino acids. The results showed that this is a viable method, gaining up to 60% yield using a dual catalytic system for Boc protected amines, while the functionalization of tertiary amines does not require HAT in order to work. Secondary amines proved to be non-applicable using the developed synthetic route without HAT catalyst while C–H activation in α-position to sulfur atoms gave similar response as tertiary amines – indicating that C–H activation without HAT should be applicable to a wider substrate scope than only using amines.

Title: Development of novel photoactive cationic zirconocene complexes Author: Bc. David Dunlop Department: Department of inorganic chemistry Supervisor: RNDr. Martin Lamač Ph.D. Advisor: prof. RNDr. Petr Štěpnička, Ph.D., DSc. Abstract: Environmental concerns have brought about an unprecedented demand for sustainable energy sources among which electromagnetic radiation, light, currently dominates. Development of novel light- harvesting compounds and materials is at the forefront of current science, as it is essential to further our technological progress. This thesis contributes to the field by development of novel photoactive cationic group 4 metallocene complexes stabilized by pendant imine and pyridinyl donor groups, or N,O-donor aromatic ligands, as crystalline [B(C6F5)4]− salts. The complexes are prepared either by protonation of the intramolecularly bound imine moiety by PhNMe2H[B(C6F5)4] or by chloride ligand abstraction, by Li[B(C6F5)4]·2.5Et2O or in situ generated Et3Si[B(C6F5)4]. Prepared compounds were characterized by NMR spectroscopy. Solid state structures of the compounds were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The cationic complexes of Zr and Hf exhibited significantly enhanced luminescence which originates from triplet ligand-to-metal (3 LMCT) excited states with lifetimes of up to...

De par ses propriétés uniques, le motif cyclopropane est largement répandu dans les composés bioactifs et d’intérêt pharmaceutique. Des efforts d’envergure ont été déployés pour accéder directement à des cyclopropanes substitués. La recherche présentée dans cette thèse décrit de nouvelles méthodes de préparation de cyclopropanes polysubstitués et leur application pour la synthèse de bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes. Pour accéder à une variété de cis-iodocyclopropanes, une zinciocyclopropanation diastéréosélective a été développée en utilisant les réactifs hétéro-dihalocarbénoïdes récemment décrits par le groupe Charette. La procédure a été simplifiée, notamment en augmentant la concentration. L’utilisation de ces nouvelles conditions a permis d’élargir considérablement l’étendue et l’efficacité de la réaction. Bien que leur synthèse soit difficile, les petits systèmes carbobicycliques rigides possède une réactivité unique en tant qu'intermédiaires pour des molécules complexes. Les iodocyclopropanes cis issus du premier projet ont été utilisés pour la synthèse de bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes riches en électrons et substitués aux positions 2-, 2,2- et 2,4. Comme la nature et la position des substituants est opposées à celles des bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes précédemment développés, ces composés peu étudiés jusqu’à maintenant, ont une réactivité intéressante. À l'aide d'un précurseur de carbène diiodosilylméthylboronate, une gem-borosilylcyclopropanation organocatalysée et activée par la lumière visible a été développée et appliquée à de nombreux dérivés du styrène. Cette méthode a permis la préparation de borosilylcyclopropanes 1,1,2-tri- et 1,1,2,2-tétrasubstitués avec un excellent contrôle diastéréosélectif. Différentes réactions de post-fonctionnalisation soulignent la versatilité de cette nouvelle entité. En complément, une gem-borosilylcyclopropanation rapide et efficace médiée par micro-ondes sans catalyseur a été développée. Cette méthode est une alternative aux conditions développées en photochimie. / The cyclopropane moiety is prevalent in bioactive compounds and drug candidates due to its unique properties. Extensive effort has been made to develop straightforward access towards highly substituted cyclopropanes. The research presented in the thesis describes new methods for polysubstituted cyclopropanes and their application in the preparation of bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes. To access a variety of cis-iodocyclopropanes, a diastereoselective zincocyclopropanation using modified conditions was developed by applying hetero-dihalocarbenoids recently reported by the Charette group. The procedure increased the reaction concentration, streamlined the process, and improved the efficiency of the reaction. The substrate scope was significantly expanded using the newly developed conditions. Strained small carbobicyclic systems are valuable synthons for complex molecules despite their challenging synthesis. The cis-iodocyclopropanes resulting from the first project were applied in the synthesis of electron-rich 2–, 2,2– and 2,4–substituted bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes. Since the nature and the position of the substituents were opposite compared to previously developed bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes, the underexplored scaffolds exhibited different reactivity. The organocatalyzed visible-light mediated gem-borosilylcyclopropanation of styrene derivatives was developed using a diiodosilylmethylboronate carbene precursor. The method enabled the preparation of 1,1,2-tri– and 1,1,2,2–tetrasubstituted borosilylcyclopropanes with excellent diastereocontrol. Post-functionalization reactions highlighted the synthetic versatility of the novel entities. A catalyst-free microwave-assisted time-efficient gem-borosilylcyclopropanation reaction was complementary developed, offering an alternative to photochemistry.

[pt] O trabalho visou sintetizar azacumestanos inéditos, derivados de 27 através da formação da ligação CN empregando bis-trifluoroacetoxi iodobenzeno (PIFA) e analisar a influência da rigidez conformacional na atividade biológica contra leishmaniose e câncer de mama. Além disso, este projeto visou sintetizar 3-Aril-4- N-Aril-cumarinas com padrões de oxigenação no anel A, e seus azacumestanos derivados, visto que é um padrão típico de produtos naturais. Para a obtenção das 3-Aril-4-N-Aril-cumarinas 27a-f, a primeira etapa consistiu em uma reação de condensação da 4-hidróxicumarina 80 com diferentes anilinas comerciais 70a-d com rendimentos de 56 a 70 por cento. Em seguida houve uma etapa de arilação via catálise fotorredox levando aos compostos 27a-f com rendimentos de 32 a 76 por cento. A última etapa consistiu numa aminação oxidativa para a obtenção dos azacumestanos 68a-f que foram obtidos com rendimentos de 32 a 92 por cento. Para a obtenção de 3-aril-4-N-arilcumarinas com diferentes padrões de oxigenação no anel A, utilizou-se fenóis parcialmente metilados 84 para gerar os compostos 85. As etapas de acilação dos fenóis foram realizadas com rendimentos de 77 a 95 por cento, a etapa de metilação do fenol 84a em até 80% de rendimento e as hidroxicumarinas 86a,c,d foram obtidas com sucesso. Contudo, não foi possível realizar a etapa seguinte de condensação. Com esses resultados, realizou-se uma investigação para uma nova rota, que se baseou em adições de Michael oxidativas e arilações descarboxilativas. Foi possível realizar a arilação descarboxilativa de cumarinas ácido carboxílicos 13 empregando ácidos borônicos com 16 por cento de rendimento, além de realizar o aza-Michael oxidativo de 13 empregando a anilina com 22 por cento de rendimento. Os N-aril-azacumestanos 68a-c sintetizados foram testados para leishmaniose, e demonstraram-se inativos, ao contrário dos intermediários 3-Aril-4-N-Aril-cumarinas, demonstrando a importância da liberdade conformacional para a atividade biológica. Entretanto, contra as linhagens MCF-7 e MDA-MB-231, não foram observadas mudanças significativas nos valores de CC50. / [en] This work aimed to synthesize novel azacoumestanes derived from 68 through the formation of C-N bound using bis-trifluoroacetoxy iodobenzene (PIFA) and to analyze the influence of conformational rigidity on the biological activity against leishmaniasis and breast cancer. In addition, this project aimed to synthesize 3-aryl-4-N-aryl-coumarins with oxygenation patterns in the A ring, and its derived azacoumestan. To obtention the 3-aryl-4-N-aryl-coumarins 27a-f, the first step consists of a condensation reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin 80 with different commercial anilines 70a-d with yields from 56 to 70 percent. The last step was an intramolecular oxidative amination, to obtain the azacoumestan 68a-f that were obtained with yields of 32 to 92 percent. To obtain 3-aryl-4-N-arylcoumarins with different oxygenation patterns, the synthetic route began with an acylation of different phenols 84, followed by a methylation and cyclization reaction to form oxygenated compounds derived from 4-hydroxy-coumarin 86a-c. Acylations were performed with yields from 77 to 95 percent, methylation of 84a with 80 percent and hydroxycoumarins 86a,c,d were successfully obtained, but it was not able to perform the condensation reaction. With these results, the investigation of a new route was carried out, which was based on oxidative Michael additions and decarboxylative arylations. It was possible to reproduce a decarboxylative arylation, in addition to performing the oxidative aza-Michael of interest with 22 percent yield in water at 65 oC. The synthesized azacoumestans 68a-c inactive against leishmaniasis, unlike the 3-aryl-4-N-aryl-coumarins intermediates, demonstrating the importance of conformational rigidity for biological activity. On the other hand, for breast anticancer activity, no significant changes were observed.

La Tomographie par Emission de Positrons (TEP) constitue l’une des techniques d’imagerie moléculaire les plus novatrices pour la visualisation in vivo des processus biologiques. Elle intervient comme technique de choix pour le diagnostic dans de nombreux domaines. La conception et l’élaboration de nouveaux radiotraceurs sont en perpétuel développement. Dans ce contexte une méthode d’introduction du radioisotope 11C a été développée pour le marquage de composés bioconjugées. Les conditions particulièrement douces de l’alcoxycarbonylation intramoléculaire mise au point ont permis un marquage en dernière étape de synthèse. La diversification des structures des précurseurs a également été envisagée grâce à un nouveau couplage biarylique catalysé à l’or sous conditions photorédox. Enfin la fonctionnalisation de motifs BODIPY a conduit à de premières avancées pour l’obtention de sondes bimodales innovantes. / Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a powerful molecular-imaging technique for physiological andbiological investigations in various areas. Due to the increasing need of this technique for in vivoapplications, there is always a demand for the development of new tracers and radiolabelingstrategies. In this context an original method was developed to introduce the 11C-radioisotope for thelabeling of bioconjugated compounds. The extremely mild conditions of this intramolecular Pdcatalyzedalcoxycarbonylation allowed to label these structures in the last step of the synthesis.Diversification of the available precursors was investigated by a novel biaryl cross coupling using goldcatalisis under photoredox conditions. Finally, preliminary studies for the functionalization of BODIPYcores were realized to obtain innovative bimodal probes.
