[4+1] Heteroannulation to Form 1‐Pyrrolines through Alder‐Ene Reaction of in situ Generated Ynimines: Development and Application in Total Synthesis of Borrecapine

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

We report in this paper a novel Cu-catalyzed synthesis of polysubstituted 1-pyrrolines. The reaction of β,γ-unsaturated oxime esters 4 with terminal alkynes 5 in the presence of a catalytic amount of Cu(OAc)2 and 2,2’-biquinoline affords the corresponding ...

Terminal Alkynes as One-Carbon Donors in [5+1] Heteroannulation: Synthesis of Pyridines via Ynimine Intermediates and Application in the Total Synthesis of Anibamine B

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

Transition-metal-catalyzed [4+2] heteroannulation of alpha,beta-unsaturated oximes and their derivatives with alkynes has been developed into a powerful strategy for the synthesis of pyridines. It nevertheless lacks regioselectivity when unsymmetrically su ...

Synthesis and Applications of Ynimines and Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Artatrovirenol A

Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

The first chapter of this thesis describe the development of a general synthesis of ynimines, an under-exploited motif in organic chemistry. In the presence of an inexpensive copper catalyst and 2,2'-biquinoline, reaction of easily accessible O-acyloximes ...

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (-)-Artatrovirenol A

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

We report herein an enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-artatrovirenol A, a structurally unprecedented cage-like sesquiterpenoid. The synthesis features the following key steps: (a) cationic chiral oxazaborolidinium-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction betwe ...

Copper‐Catalyzed Aza‐Sonogashira Cross‐Coupling to Ynimines: Development and Application to the Synthesis of Heterocycles

Jieping Zhu, Qiang Wang, Rémi Hugo Lavernhe

Nitrogen substituted alkynes such as ynamines and ynamides are versatile synthetic building blocks in organic chemistry. Ynimines bearing additional nucleophilic and electrophilic centers relative to ynamines and ynamides are expected to have high syntheti ...
