  • Investigations of the [2,3]-Sigmatropic Rearrangements of Vinylaziridines and Allylic Amines
    Synlett, 2007
    Co-Authors: Peter Somfai, Olaf Panknin
    Abstract:

    This account summarizes our studies of [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements of Vinylaziridines and allylic amines. The scope and limitations of the reactions as well as our present mechanistic understanding are also discussed.

  • A Regio- and Stereodivergent Route to All Isomers of vic-Amino Alcohols.
    ChemInform, 2003
    Co-Authors: Berit Olofsson, Peter Somfai
    Abstract:

    The first part of this thesis describes a synthetic strategythat provides all eight possible isomers of a given vic-aminoalcohol starting from vinylepoxides. The value of a generalroute is evident, as several isomers are needed ininvestigations of structure-activity relationships forpharmacologically active derivatives, and for optimizing theperformance of chiral ligands containing the amino alcoholmoiety. Vinylepoxides, obtained in high enantiomeric excess, werering-opened both with inversion and retention ofstereochemistry, delivering two diastereomeric amino alcoholswith high regio- and stereoselectivity. Via ring-closure toaziridines and subsequent regioselective ring-opening withsuitable oxygen nucleophiles, the two remaining amino alcoholswere selectively achieved. Within this study, two efficient protocols for theregioselective and stereospecific aminolysis of vinylepoxideshave been presented. Comparedto previous methods, theseprocedures use milder reaction conditions, shorter reactiontimes, generally give higher yields and are applicable to alarger set of substrates. Furthermore, the ring-closure ofvic-amino alcohols to the corresponding N-H Vinylaziridines hasbeen investigated. Three routes have been found useful, whichone is preferred depends on substrate and scale. In the second part of the thesis, the synthetic strategy isapplied on the synthesis of Sphingosine and its regio- andstereoisomers. Moreover, a rapid way of determining relativeconfiguration of vic-amino alcohols is described, which shouldbe of substantial use when amino alcohols are formed bydiastereoselective reactions. amino alcohols, vinylepoxides, Vinylaziridines, oxazolines,oxazolidinones, ring-opening, regioselective,diastereoselective, sphingosine, configuration, NMRspectroscopy.NR 2014080

  • Divergent synthesis of D-erythro-sphingosine, L-threo-sphingosine, and their regioisomers.
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2003
    Co-Authors: Berit Olofsson, Peter Somfai
    Abstract:

    Starting from a vinyl epoxide, a divergent synthesis of four sphingosine isomers is described. The remaining four isomers can easily be synthesized using the same methodology. Although numerous syntheses of sphingosine have been published, this is the first general route leading to all eight isomers in this important compound class. The synthetic strategy relies on regioselective opening of a vinyl epoxide and a vinylaziridine in the allylic position.

  • A regio- and stereodivergent route to all isomers of vic-amino alcohols.
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2002
    Co-Authors: Berit Olofsson, Peter Somfai
    Abstract:

    Vicinal amino alcohols are substructures in several important natural products. They are also frequently employed ligands in asymmetric synthesis. Many enantioselective syntheses of vic-amino alcohols have been reported, but each structure has required its own synthetic route. This study presents a synthetic strategy leading to all eight possible isomers of a given β-amino alcohol, starting from vinyl epoxides. The developed strategy focuses on the propensity of vinyl epoxides and Vinylaziridines to be selectively ring-opened at the allylic position by suitable hard nucleophiles. Within this strategy, a novel large-scale aminolysis reaction and the synthesis of a trisubstituted N-H vinylaziridine are detailed.

  • Synthesis of N-H Vinylaziridines : a comparative study.
    Tetrahedron, 2002
    Co-Authors: Berit Olofsson, Roel Wijtmans, Peter Somfai
    Abstract:

    Vinylaziridines are useful and versatile synthetic intermediates, as the relief of ring-strain provides a driving force for efficient ring-opening or ring-expansion reactions. Furthermore, the vinyl group can be derivatized into interesting functionalities. The ring-closure of vicinal amino alcohols constitutes a straightforward route to aziridines. Several methods exist for this transformation, although many cannot be applied to Vinylaziridines due to their acid lability. This comparative study describes the most effective sequences for the formation of N-H Vinylaziridines.
