  • Synthesis and reactivity of 2-thionoester pyrroles: a route to 2-formyl pyrroles
    RSC Advances, 2019
    Co-Authors: Min Joon Kim, Sophie M. Gaube, Michael H. R. Beh, Craig D. Smith, Alison Thompson
    Abstract:

    2-Functionalised pyrroles exhibit considerable synthetic utility. Herein, the synthesis and reactivity of 2-thionoester (–C(S)OR) pyrroles is reported. 2-Thionoester pyrroles were synthesised using a Knorr-type approach from aliphatic starting materials. 2-Thionoester pyrroles were reduced to the corresponding 2-formyl pyrroles, or the deuterated formyl variant, in one step using RANEY® nickel, thereby removing the need for the much-utilised hydrolysis/decarboxylation/formylation steps that are typically required to convert Knorr-type 2-carboxylate pyrroles into 2-formyl pyrroles. 2-Thionoester pyrroles proved tolerant of typical functional group interconversions for which the parent 2-carboxylate pyrroles have become known.

  • Thionation reactions of 2-pyrrole carboxylates
    RSC Advances, 2016
    Co-Authors: Brandon R. Groves, Deborah A. Smithen, T. Stanley Cameron, Alison Thompson
    Abstract:

    Reaction of 2-pyrrole carboxylates with Lawesson's reagent at elevated temperatures results in the corresponding thionoesters, concurrent with the production of a new class of pyrrole annulated with the (1,3,2)-thiazaphospholidine unit. X-ray crystallography was used to identify the pyrrolic thiazaphospholidine, which was found to have unique structural features compared to literature analogues. Addition of BF3·OEt2 to the thionation procedure was found to produce the corresponding F-BODIPY, constituting a four-step reaction in one-pot. The scope and limitations of these reactions involving the promiscuous Lawesson's reagent are discussed herein.

  • Microwave-Accelerated Synthesis of Benzyl 3,5-Dimethyl-Pyrrole-2-Carboxylate.
    ChemInform, 2007
    Co-Authors: Jasmine Regourd, Ian M. Comeau, Cory S. Beshara, Alison Thompson
    Abstract:

    Benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-Pyrrole-2-Carboxylate, a very useful pyrrole in porphyrin and dipyrromethene synthesis, can be synthesized via the Knorr-type reaction, but in low yield. Alternative routes to benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-Pyrrole-2-Carboxylate have been developed involving the trans-esterification of ethyl 3,5-dimethyl-Pyrrole-2-Carboxylate and the de-acetylation of benzyl 4-acetyl-3,5-dimethyl-2-carboxylate, both precursors being easily obtained using the Knorr reaction. These traditional methods involve treatment of the known products with a strong basic solution or heating for extended periods which often lead to decomposition. The use of microwave energy to promote these two reactions proves to be an extremely efficient way to obtain benzyl 3,5-dimethyl-Pyrrole-2-Carboxylate quickly, in high yield, and in excellent purity with no need for recrystallization. Of particular note is the use of catalytic sodium methoxide in benzyl alcohol, rather than stoichiometric amounts of sodium benzoxide, to effect benzylation.
