  • Control of inversion kinetics of bowl-shaped aromatic compounds

    Higashibayashi S., Kinetic Control in Synthesis and Self-Assembly, 2018.01

    　View Summary

    Bowl inversion property of bowl-shaped aromatic compounds, buckybowls, is reviewed in this chapter. Bowl inversion kinetics of many kinds of buckybowls have been extensively investigated including pristine buckybowls such as corannulene, sumanene, diindenochrysene, and extended buckybowls, substituted buckybowls, and heterobuckybowls. The magnitude of bowl inversion barrier was altered in very wide range depending on the kinds of buckybowl skeleton, the extension of bowl π-conjugation, the substituents, the heteroatoms, and the redox. Introduction of substituents changed the barriers in a few kcal/mol range and the correlation between the bowl inversion barriers and bowl depths was elucidated in corannulene and sumanene skeletons. Introduction of heteroatoms substantially changed the magnitude of inversion barrier without changing bowl sizes. Chiral buckybowls with stable bowl chirality were also achieved by realizing the high bowl inversion/racemization barrier by introduction of substituents or heteroatoms. Based on these extensive studies, bowl inversion kinetics can be controlled by these factors.

  • Unified short syntheses of oxygenated tricyclic aromatic diterpenes by radical cyclization with a photoredox catalyst

    Hashimoto R., Hanaya K., Sugai T., Higashibayashi S.

    Communications Chemistry （Communications Chemistry)  6 （ 1 ）  2023.12

    Research paper (scientific journal), Accepted

    　View Summary

    The biomimetic two-phase strategy employing polyene cyclization and subsequent oxidation/substitution is an effective approach for divergent syntheses of [6-6-6]-tricyclic diterpenes. However, this strategy requires lengthy sequences for syntheses of oxygenated tricyclic aromatic abietane/podocarpane diterpenes owing to the many linear oxidation/substitution steps after cyclization. Here, we present a new synthetic route based on a convergent reverse two-phase strategy employing a reverse radical cyclization approach, which enabled the unified short syntheses of four aromatic abietane/podocarpane diterpenes and the divergent short syntheses of other related diterpenes. Oxygenated and substituted precursors for cyclization were convergently prepared through Friedel-Crafts acylation and rhodium-catalyzed site-selective iodination. Radical redox cyclization using an iridium photoredox catalyst involving neophyl rearrangement furnished the thermodynamically favored 6-membered ring preferentially. (±)-5,6-Dehydrosugiol, salvinolone, crossogumerin A, and Δ5-nimbidiol were synthesized in only 8 steps. An oxygenated cyclized intermediate was also useful for divergent derivatization to sugiol, ferruginol, saprorthoquinone, cryptomeriololide, and salvinolone.

  • Synthesis and luminescence properties of substituted benzils

    Yasui M., Fujihara T., Ohtsu H., Wada Y., Shimada T., Zhu Y., Kawano M., Hanaya K., Sugai T., Higashibayashi S.

    Communications Chemistry （Communications Chemistry)  6 （ 1 ）  2023.12

    Research paper (scientific journal), Accepted

    　View Summary

    Photophysical properties of benzil (1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-dione) and its derivatives in the crystal state have recently attracted much attention. However, the study of substituted benzils has mostly been limited to para-substituted derivatives, which did not induce a significant effect on the emission wavelength compared to pristine benzil. The effects of ortho- and meta-substituents on the photophysical properties in the crystal state have not been investigated so far. Our recently developed organocatalytic pinacol coupling of substituted benzaldehydes allowed us to prepare various ortho-, meta-, and para-substituted benzil derivatives and to investigate their luminescence properties. Ortho- and meta-substituents affected the electronic states of benzils in the crystal state, resulting in differences in their luminescence properties. The luminescence wavelength and type, i.e., phosphorescence or fluorescence, were altered by these substituents. Fast self-recovering phosphorescence-to-phosphorescence mechanochromism by the para-CF3 substituent at room temperature was also discovered.

  • Selective modification of tryptophan in polypeptides via C-N coupling with azoles using in situ-generated iodine-based oxidants in aqueous media

    Watanabe S., Wada Y., Kawano M., Higashibayashi S., Sugai T., Hanaya K.

    Chemical Communications （Chemical Communications)  59 （ 87 ） 13026 - 13029 2023.10

    Research paper (scientific journal), Accepted,  ISSN  13597345

    　View Summary

    This study demonstrates the C-N coupling of tryptophan with azoles, promoted by an in situ-generated iodine-based oxidant. The protocol was successfully applied to the selective modification of tryptophan in nonprotected polypeptide bearing oxidatively sensitive residues in acidic aqueous media. The present method allows the attachment of reactive handles to polypeptides and the peptide stapling.

  • Inversion of Diaza[5]Helicenes Through an N−N Bond Breaking Pathway

    Kobayashi T., Ishiwari F., Fukushima T., Nojima Y., Hasegawa M., Mazaki Y., Hanaya K., Sugai T., Higashibayashi S.

    Chemistry - A European Journal （Chemistry - A European Journal)  29 （ 43 ）  2023.08

    Research paper (scientific journal), Accepted,  ISSN  09476539

    　View Summary

    1,1’,10,10’-Biphenothiazine and its S,S,S’,S’-tetroxide are diaza[5]helicenes with N−N linkages. Kinetic experiments on racemization together with DFT calculations revealed that they undergo inversion through the N−N bond breaking pathway rather than the general conformational pathway. In these diaza[5]helicenes with this inversion mechanism, the reduction of electronic repulsion in the N−N bond by modification of S to SO2 at the outer position of the helix led to a significantly higher inversion barrier, 35.3 kcal/mol, compared to [5]helicene. 1,1’,10,10’-Biphenothiazine S,S,S’,S’-tetroxide was highly resistant to acid-mediated N−N bond breaking and racemization under acidic conditions.

  • Transition-Metal-Free β-Selective C-Glycosylation of β-Glycosyl Boronates via Stereoretentive 1,2-Migration

    Yasutomi H., Takeda D., Yoritate M., Higashibayashi S., Sugai T., Hirai G.

    Synlett （Synlett)  34 （ 4 ） 347 - 352 2023.03

    Research paper (scientific journal), Accepted,  ISSN  09365214

    　View Summary

    C-Glycoside analogues of native glycans are useful molecular tools for medicinal chemistry and chemical biology due to their resistance to cellular glycoside hydrolases. We previously reported an α-selective direct C-glycosylation of 2-deoxy-β-glycosyl boronate through a Ni/photoredox-catalyzed stereoinvertive cross-coupling reaction. Here we report a complementary stereoretentive synthetic method for the preparation of β-C-glycosides from a similar boronate precursor through the addition of a C(sp2) anion followed by 1,2-migration of the glycosyl donor.
