RESUMO
In this work, we explore a nickel-catalyzed reversible carbon-sulfur (C-S) bond activation strategy to achieve selective sulfur isotope exchange. Isotopes are at the foundation of applications in life science, such as nuclear imaging, and are essential tools for the determination of pharmacokinetic and dynamic profiles of new pharmaceuticals. However, the insertion of an isotope into an organic molecule remains challenging, and current technologies are element-specific. Despite the ubiquitous presence of sulfur in many biologically active molecules, sulfur isotope labeling is an underexplored field, and sulfur isotope exchange has been overlooked. This approach enables us to move beyond standardized element-specific procedures and was applied to multiple isotopes, including deuterium, carbon-13, sulfur-34, and radioactive carbon-14. These results provide a unique platform for multiple isotope labeling and are compatible with a wide range of substrates, including pharmaceuticals. In addition, this technology proved its potential as an isotopic encryption device for organic molecules.
RESUMO
The first example of Pd(II)-catalyzed anomeric arylation of 3-aminosugars is reported by using an L,X-type transient directing group (TDG) approach combined with an external 2-pyridone ligand. The released free amine was in situ transformed into an azide function, which was then exploited in a CuAAC to increase the molecular complexity and prepare a variety of complex substituted C3-triazolo C-glycosides in good yields.
RESUMO
Here, we report a one-pot Stadler-Ziegler reaction toward the synthesis of 1-thioglycosides in good yield from commercially available anilines and (un)protected 1-glycosyl thiols. This simple and mild approach employs the photoredox catalyst [Ru(bpy)3](PF6)2 under visible light.
RESUMO
Transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization and photoredox nickel dual catalysis have emerged as innovative and powerful avenues for the synthesis of C-branched glycosides. These two concepts have been recently established and provide efficient and mild methods for accessing a series of valuable complex C-branched glycosides of great interest. Herein, recent developments in the synthesis of C-branched aryl/alkenyl/alkyl glycosides through these two approaches are highlighted.
RESUMO
An efficient regio- and diastereoselective arylation method of readily available 2,3-glycals with various aryl iodides has been established. Using the Pd(OAc)2/AsPh3 precatalytic system, this protocol proved to be general to prepare a variety of substituted C2-aryl glycosides in good yields with complete diastereoselectivity.
