  • Studies toward the total synthesis of sanglifehrin A

    Creator:
    Suttisintong, Khomson
    Abstract:
    Studies toward synthesis of subunits of sanglifehrin A, an immunosuppressant featuring a highly substituted [5,5]-spirolactam moiety as well as a 22-membered macrocycle are described. The macrolactone contains a peptidic backbone characterized by an unusual [beta]-substituted (S)-piperazic acid and (S)-m-hydroxyphenylalanine units. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediate 358...

  • Tandem intramolecular photocycloaddition-retro-Mannich fragmentation as a route to indole and oxindole

    Creator:
    Li, Yang
    Abstract:
    Irradiation of a tryptamine linked through its side-chain nitrogen to an alkylidene malonate residue results in an intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition to the indole 2,3-double bond. The resultant cyclobutane undergoes spontaneous retro-Mannich fission to produce a spiro[indoline-3,3-pyrrolenine] with relative configuration defined by the orientation of substituents in the transient...

  • Cis-2,5-diaminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane : a novel C₂-symmetric scaffold for asymmetric catalysis

    Creator:
    Shaw, Subrata
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the development of a new enantioselective synthetic method employing chiral cis-2,5-diaminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane-based organometallic catalysts. The significance of this new method to organic synthesis is illustrated with preparation of enantioenriched products that are transformed to important pharmaceutical agents. Chapter 1 provides a brief historical overview of asymmetric catalysis, especially...
