Synthesis of 1,3-diynes via palladium-catalyzed reaction of 1, 1-dibromo-1-alkenes.

[reaction: see text] Both symmetric and unsymmetric 1,3-diynes were prepared from the palladium-catalyzed reaction of 1,1-dibromo-1-alkenes. The formation of symmetric 1,3-diynes 2 (homocoupling) was catalyzed by a weak ligand, tris(2-furyl)phosphine (TFP), and the addition of catalytic amount of CuI accelerated the reaction. The synthesis of unsymmetric 1,3-diynes 4 (the Sonogashira reaction) required a highly electron rich tris(4-methoxyphenyl)phosphine as the ligand, and CuI promotes the formation of byproduct 1,1-diynyl-1-alkenes 5.

Reactions of 2,4-hexadiyne-1,6-diol with [H2Os3(CO)9(PR3)] clusters. Cyclization of the diyne and reversible exchange of the phosphine ligands between different positions of the "Os3C3" framework.

Reactions between unsaturated [H(2)Os(3)(CO)(9)(PR(3))] clusters (PR(3)= PPh(3), P(4-CF(3)-C(6)H(4))(3), PEt(3)) and 2,4-hexadiyne-1,6-diol have been studied. It was found that the diyne ligand easily reacts with all these complexes to give [HOs(3)(CO)8(PR3)-[mu3, eta1:eta3:eta1)-(CH(3)-C-C=CH-CH=C-O)]] complexes (V, VI and VII, respectively) containing the "Os3C3" pentagonal pyramid cluster framework. This structural pattern is formed through the diyne cyclization, dissociation of a CO ligand and eventual coordination of the cyclized organic moiety to the osmium triangle in the [mu3, eta1:eta3:eta1) manner. In the case of the PEt(3) substituted cluster the second hydride transfer onto the organic fragment occurs to afford the nonhydride [Os(3)(CO)(8)(PR3)[mu3), eta1:eta2:eta1)-(CH(3)-CH-C=CH-CH=C-O)]] cluster, VIII, containing distorted pentagonal pyramid framework with a broken Os-C bond. Heating V, VI of VII and in hexane solutions results in formation of the regioisomers (Va, VIa and VIIa) with the phosphine ligand located at adjacent osmium atoms across the Os-Os bond bridged by the coordinated organic fragment. The most probable mechanism of the isomerization includes reversible phosphine migration between these metal centres. Solid-state structure of V, Va, VI, VIIa and VIII have been established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. A general mechanistic scheme for the diyne ligand cyclization and cluster framework transformations is suggested and discussed.

Two [7.3.1]azabicyclo-z-3-ene-1,5-diyne analogues of dynemicin A.

The crystal structures of methyl 6-methoxy-17-oxo-2-azatricyclo[7.7.1.0(3,8)]heptadeca-3(8),4 ,6,13-tetraene- 11,15-diyne-2-carboxylate ethyl acetate solvate, (1), 2C19H15NO4.0.5C4H8O2, and tricyclo[3.3.1.1(3,7)]decyl 6-methoxy-17-oxo-2-azatricyclo[7.7.1.0(3,8)]heptadeca-3(8),4 ,6,13-tetraene- 11,15-diyne-2-carboxylate ethyl acetate solvate, (2), C28H27NO4.0.5C4H8O2, are reported. For compound (1), two crystallographically independent molecules are observed. Interestingly, for both compounds (1) and (2), a molecule of ethyl acetate is found in the crystal lattice disordered about an inversion center. The azabicyclo[7.3.1]enediyne core appears to be fairly rigid. Only minor differences are observed in the ring conformation between the two independent molecules in (1) and between compounds (1) and (2) themselves. The conformation is also similar to that found in deoxydynemicin A [Shiomi, Iinuma, Naganawa, Hamada, Hattori, Nakamura, Takeuchi & Iitaka (1990). J. Antibiot. 43, 1000-1005] and triacetyldynemicin A [Konishi, Ohkuma, Tsuno, Oki, Van Duyne & Clardy (1990). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 112, 3715-3716]. The transannular diyne distance (C3...C8) averages 3.428 (2) A for compound (1) and is 3.403 (3) A for compound (2).

Synthesis of ginseng diyne analogues and their antiproliferative activity against L1210 cells.

Some analogues of Ginseng diyne were synthesized and tested for antiproliferative activity against L1210 cells. The epoxy moiety of panaxydol, isolated from the root of Panax ginseng, proved to be in the cis-form on comparison with synthetic specimens. Analysis of structure-activity relationship revealed that the presence of the heptadec-1-ene-4,6-diyn-3-ol moiety in the structure of the analogues was essential for their antiproliferative activity and that the epoxy and alkyl groups in the structure contributed to enhancement of the antiproliferative activity.

Sites in the diyne-ene bicyclic core of neocarzinostatin chromophore responsible for hydrogen abstraction from DNA.

The antitumor antibiotic neocarzinostatin exhibits its main drug action by abstracting hydrogen from DNA deoxyribose with consequent strand breakage or related lesions. All biological activities of the drug derive solely from a nonprotein chromophoric substance (NCS-chrom) consisting of a novel epoxy-bicyclo-diyne-ene system. Thiol or sodium borohydride activates NCS-chrom into a labile, reactive species that induces DNA damage but causes inactivation of the drug in the absence of the target DNA. Mass spectrometric studies indicate that the isolated thiol-activated NCS-chrom product in the presence of DNA has the same molecular weight as the thiol-inactivated NCS-chrom product in the absence of DNA. No deuterium is incorporated into the chromophore from the deuterium-labeled sulfhydryl group. Since three deuterium atoms can be incorporated into the drug by treatment with sodium borodeuteride without DNA, adding an unlabeled DNA under parallel conditions permitted the ready identification of the activated NCS-chrom product that abstracted hydrogen from the DNA. Not only does the activated NCS-chrom product have the same structure as the inactivated drug without DNA, but two of the incorporated deuterium atoms have been substituted by hydrogen. With the aid of NMR spectrometry, the two replaced hydrogen atoms are found to be incorporated into the C-2 and C-6 positions of the bicyclo-diyne-ene ring of NCS-chrom and are derived neither from borodeuteride nor from the hydroxyl functions of the solvents. In accord with current proposals, the two hydrogens incorporated into the drug may come from closely opposed sites on the complementary strands of the DNA at which the drug is bound.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Rhenium oxo complexes of a chelating diyne ligand. Synthesis and study of the kinetics of protonation.

A series of oxo complexes, Re(O)X(diyne) (X = I, Me, Et), have been prepared from 2,7-nonadiyne and Re(O)I(3)(PPh(3))(2). Addition of B(C(6)F(5))(3) to Re(O)I(2,7-nonadiyne) (5) results in coordination of the oxo ligand to the boron. The protonation of Re(O)(X)(2-butyne)(2) and Re(O)(X)(2,7-nonadiyne)(2) with a variety of acids has been examined. With 5 and HBF(4)/Et(2)O, the ultimate product was [Re(CH(3)CN)(3)(I)(2,7-nonadiyne)](2+) (7). The conversion of 5 to 7 changes the conformation of the diyne ligand from a "chair" to a "boat" and shifts its propargylic protons considerably downfield in the (1)H NMR. The kinetics of the protonation of Re(O)I(2,7-nonadiyne) (5) by CF(3)SO(3)H in CH(3)CN have been monitored by visible spectroscopy, in a stopped-flow apparatus, and by low temperature (1)H NMR. Two second-order rate constants, presumably successive protonations, were observed in the stopped-flow, k(1) = 11.9 M(-)(1) s(-)(1) and k(2) = 3.8 M(-)(1) s(-)(1). Low temperature (1)H NMR spectroscopy indicated that the resulting solution contained a mixture of two doubly protonated intermediates X and Y, each of which slowly formed the product 7 via an acid-independent process.

Ruthenium-catalyzed cycloaddition of 1,6-diynes with isothiocyanates and carbon disulfide: first transition-metal catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cocyclotrimerization involving C=S double bond.

In the presence of 10 mol % Cp*Ru(cod)Cl, 1,6-diynes with a tertiary center at 4-position reacted with various isothiocyanates at their C=S double bond to afford bicyclic (2H)-thiopyranimines in 35-88% yields. The (2H)-thiopyran structure was unequivocally determined by X-ray analysis. The cycloaddition of carbon disulfide with a diyne similarly gave the expected bicyclic dithiopyrone in 50% yield.

Efficient nickel-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of CO2 and diynes.

A mild and general route for preparing 2-pyrones from CO2 and diynes is described. Under only 1 atm of CO2, excellent yields of pyrone are obtained using catalytic amounts of Ni(COD)2 and imidazolylidene ligand, IPr. In addition, stoichiometric reactions between the isolated complex Ni(IPr)2, diynes, and CO2 suggest that the pathway involves initial reaction with CO2 as the key step.

How large is the conjugative stabilization of diynes?

The conjugation stabilization energies of dienes and diynes are considerably larger than estimates based on heat of hydrogenation differences between 1,3-butadiyne and 1-butyne as well as between 1,3-butadiene and 1-butene. Such comparisons do not take into account the counterbalancing hyperconjugative stabilization of the partially hydrogenated products by their ethyl groups. When alkyl hyperconjugation is considered, the conjugation stabilization of diynes ( approximately 9.3 kcal/mol) is found by two methods (involving isomerization of nonconjugated into conjugated isomers and heats of hydrogenation) to be larger than that of dienes ( approximately 8.2 kcal/mol).

Brønsted acid-promoted cyclizations of 1-siloxy-1,5-diynes.

We have developed the first HNTf2-promoted 5-endo-dig cyclizations of 1-siloxy-1,5-diynes, which proceed with concomitant formation of C-Hal bonds as a result of halide abstraction from a halocarbon by the intermediate alkenyl cation. This process is enabled by a chemoselective activation of the more electron-rich siloxy alkyne moiety of the diyne cyclization precursor and represents an efficient and highly diastereoselective method for assembly of a range of beta-halo enones.

Highly enantioselective construction of a chiral spirocyclic structure by the [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of diynes and exo-methylene cyclic compounds.

The enantioselective [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of 1,6-diynes with alpha-methylene lactones and cyclic ketones gave various chiral spirocyclic compounds. The reaction proceeded with high enantioselectivity when the rhodium-xylylBINAP complex was used as a chiral catalyst. Not only exo-methylene cyclic compounds but also exo-methylene acyclic compounds could be used as coupling partners for diynes. The present protocol provides access to a new chiral library possessing a quaternary carbon center, including a spirocyclic system.

Synthesis of cyclophanes via an intermolecular Pd-catalyzed enyne-diyne cross-benzannulation approach.

Several novel types of cyclophanes were efficiently synthesized via an intermolecular palladium-catalyzed cross-benzannulation of cyclic enynes and diynes. These types of cyclophanes are not accessible through an intramolecular mode of the homo-benzannulation protocol, reported previously. Cyclic reactants (enynes and diynes) were readily prepared in reasonable yields from commercially available materials using known procedures. The fact that the cyclic Z-enyne 29, in contrast to its E-counterpart, underwent benzannulation to produce the cyclophane 28 brought additional support for the necessity of having an E-hydrogen atom at the terminal olefin moiety of nonactivated enynes, which was found previously in the benzannulation of the acyclic substrates.

Iridium complex-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition of alpha,omega-diynes with monoynes and monoenes.

[reaction: see text] [Ir(cod)Cl]2/DPPE was found to be a new catalyst for the cycloaddition of alpha,omega-diynes with monoynes to give polysubstituted benzene derivatives in high yields. Internal monoynes as well as terminal monoynes could be used. The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups such as alcohol, amine, alkene, ether, halogen, and nitrile. The reaction of 1,6-octadiyne derivatives with 1-alkynes gives ortho products and meta products. The regioselectivity could be controlled by the choice of ligand. The reaction with DPPE was meta selective, with meta selectivity of up to 82%. The reaction with DPPF was ortho selective, with ortho selectivity of up to 88%. We propose a mechanism to account for this regioselective cycloaddition. [Ir(cod)Cl](2)/DPPE also catalyzed the cycloaddition of alpha,omega-diynes with 2,5-dihydrofuran to give bicyclic cyclohexadiene derivatives. The reaction with 2,3-dihydrofuran and n-butyl vinyl ether gave benzene derivatives instead of cyclohexadiene derivatives. We also propose a mechanism to account for this novel aromatization that includes cleavage of the C-O bond.

Synthesis of diynes and tetraynes from in situ desilylation/dimerization of acetylenes.

[reaction: see text]. An efficient method for the in situ desilylation/oxidative dimerization of (trialkylsilyl)acetylenes is described. This protocol avoids the complications encountered with sensitive diynes by eliminating the deprotection and isolation steps. Various aromatic and alkyl diynes and tetraynes can be synthesized in a straightforward manner in good yields (82-99%) from TIPS-protected acetylenes. This method facilitates the efficient synthesis of novel tetrayne-bridged acetylenic cyclophanes 6 and 7 in a direct manner.

Bicyclic ketones (2a, 2b, 2c, 2e, and 2f) with five- or six-membered rings fused to the five-membered ring were obtained from both aliphatic diyne-diones (1a-c) and yne-diones (1e and 1f) having tetra- or pentamethylene spacers.

Synthesis and thermolysis of heterocyclic 3-aza-3-ene-1,5-diynes(1).

[reaction: see text] Simple, acyclic 3-aza-3-ene-1,5-diynes undergo an aza-Bergman rearrangement to a fleeting 2,5-didehydropyridine (2,5-ddp) intermediate that rapidly ring-opens to beta-alkynylacrylonitrile products. In an effort to access longer-lived 2,5-ddp intermediates, we have prepared heterocyclic 3-aza-3-ene-1,5-diynes. The thermolysis of one such heterocyclic aza-enediyne does not afford products derived from trapping a 2,5-ddp intermediate but rather cyclopropanes that appear to arise from a carbene intermediate and a product that appears to be a trapping product from a 2,3-ddp intermediate.

Regioselective [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of a nickel-benzyne complex with 1,3-diynes.

[reaction: see text] Reactions of nickel(0)-benzyne complexes with a range of symmetrically substituted 1,3-diynes in the presence of triethylphosphine lead to the regioselective formation of 2,3-dialkynyl naphthalenes. The regioselectivity can be reversed when the diyne possesses substituents of high steric bulk, allowing selective formation of either symmetric dialkynyl naphthalene.
