Any and all applications for which a foreign or domestic priority claim is identified, for example, in the Application Data Sheet or Request as filed with the present application, are hereby incorporated by reference under 37 CFR 1.57, and Rules 4.18 and 20.6.
The present disclosure relates to synthetic organic chemistry, and in particular to [1.1.1]-bicyclopentane-based compounds (propellane derivatives) and their synthesis.
There is significant need for new categories of small organic molecules useful as reagents in synthetic organic chemistry. Although it has been estimated that there are 1060 possible small carbon-containing molecules, only a tiny fraction of those can be effectively and efficiently synthesized using known reactions and readily-available starting materials (or “building blocks”). New building blocks or more efficient methods of synthesizing known but expensive building blocks could expand the chemical space available for exploration, for example, in areas such as pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemistry, polymers, advanced materials, and many other areas of endeavor.
One structural motif that is highly under-represented in synthetic organic chemistry is bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) having the structure:
This is largely due to the difficulty, high cost, and low yields of BCP and its derivatives using known synthetic schemes. Although BCP has been the subject of some experimentation as a structural motif in pharmaceuticals, polymers, liquid crystal displays, high energy density materials, nanoparticles or molecular rods, macrocycles, organometallic complexes, and physical organic chemistry, compounds having a BCP structure have yet to be commercialized in those fields. In short, commercial use of BCPs has been hampered by availability and cost of reagents.
Some embodiments disclosed herein relate to a method for preparing a substituted bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane compound that can include combining [1.1.1]propellane; a Group VII transition metal compound or a Group IX transition metal compound; a hydride source; and a reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group such that bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane is substituted with the substituent group.
Some embodiments described herein relate to using a method described herein to obtain a compound of Formula (I).
Some embodiments described herein relate to a compound of Formula (I).
Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes are remarkably stable, despite being highly ring-strained. The first example of an isolated bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane was reported by Wiberg in 1964 (Wiberg et al. Tetrahedron Lett. 1964, 531-4). However, development of the bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane field was slow due to the difficult and low yielding chemistry. Some twenty years passed before a more productive route into BCPs was discovered by Wiberg (Wiberg et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1982, 104, 5239-40) and further developed by Sziemes (Semmler et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1985, 107, 6410-11) that utilized the highly ring-strained [1.1.1]propellane as a starting material.
Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane has unique properties, including shape (sterics) and polarity (electronics) where the high ring-strain creates an electron withdrawing effect for substituents on the bridgehead carbons. For example, 1-bicyclo[1.1.1]pentyl amine is significantly less basic compared to tert-butylamine (pKa of the conjugate acid is 8.6 for 1-bicyclo[1.1.1]pentyl amine vs. 11.0 for tBuNH2). Likewise, 1-carboxybicyclo[1.1.1]pentane is more acidic than pivalic acid (pKa of 4.09 for 1-carboxybicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes vs. 5.05 for pivalic acid). These and other properties suggest that BCPs may find significant application as organic chemistry building blocks. Nevertheless, despite advances in synthesis of a few BCPs (see, e.g., Bunker et al., Org. Lett. 2011, 13, 4746-4748), there is a need for additional BCP building blocks and for more cost-effective syntheses for known BCP-based compounds.

As used herein, the following terminology is defined as indicated:
Whenever a group is described as being “optionally substituted” that group may be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more of the indicated substituents. Likewise, when a group is described as being “unsubstituted or substituted” if substituted, the substituent(s) may be selected from one or more of the indicated substituents. If no substituents are indicated, it is meant that the indicated “optionally substituted” or “substituted” group may be substituted with one or more group(s) individually and independently selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl, aryl(alkyl), heteroaryl(alkyl), (heterocyclyl)alkyl, hydroxy, alkoxy, acyl, cyano, halogen, thiocarbonyl, O-carbamyl, N-carbamyl, O-thiocarbamyl, N-thiocarbamyl, C-amido, N-amido, S-sulfonamido, N-sulfonamido, C-carboxy, O-carboxy, isocyanato, thiocyanato, isothiocyanato, nitro, sulfenyl, sulfinyl, sulfonyl, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, an amino, a mono-substituted amino group and a di-substituted amino group.
As used herein, “Ca to Cb” in which “a” and “b” are integers refer to the number of carbon atoms in a group. The indicated group can contain from “a” to “b”, inclusive, carbon atoms. Thus, for example, a “C1 to C4 alkyl” group refers to all alkyl groups having from 1 to 4 carbons, that is, CH3—, CH3CH2—, CH3CH2CH2—, (CH3)2CH—, CH3CH2CH2CH2—, CH3CH2CH(CH3)— and (CH3)3C—. If no “a” and “b” are designated, the broadest range described in these definitions is to be assumed.

Examples of branched alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, iso-propyl, sec-butyl, t-butyl and the like. Examples of straight chain alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, and the like. The alkyl group may have 1 to 30 carbon atoms (whenever it appears herein, a numerical range such as “1 to 30” refers to each integer in the given range; e.g., “1 to 30 carbon atoms” means that the alkyl group may consist of 1 carbon atom, 2 carbon atoms, 3 carbon atoms, etc., up to and including 30 carbon atoms, although the present definition also covers the occurrence of the term “alkyl” where no numerical range is designated).

Cycloalkenyl groups can contain 3 to 10 atoms in the ring(s) or 3 to 8 atoms in the ring(s). When composed of two or more rings, the rings may be connected together in a fused, bridged or spiro fashion. A cycloalkenyl group may be unsubstituted or substituted.
As used herein, “cycloalkynyl” refers to a mono- or multi-cyclic hydrocarbon ring system that contains one or more triple bonds in at least one ring. If there is more than one triple bond, the triple bonds cannot form a fully delocalized pi-electron system throughout all the rings.

Reagents
Various reagents can be used to contribute all or a part of a substituent group to the bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane compound. In some embodiments, the reagent can function as an electrophile and can trap a nucleophile. In other embodiments, the reagent can function as a radical trap of a carbon radical species to provide the substituted BCP.
In some embodiments, the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can have the structure LG1-R1, wherein R1 attaches to a carbon of [1.1.1]propellane and LG1 is a leaving group.
As used herein, “leaving group” refers to any atom or moiety that is capable of being displaced by another atom or moiety in a chemical reaction. More specifically, in some embodiments, “leaving group” refers to the atom or moiety that is displaced in a nucleophilic substitution reaction. In some embodiments, “leaving groups” are any atoms or moieties that are conjugate bases of strong acids. Examples of suitable leaving groups include, but are not limited to, tosylates, mesylates, sulfonyls, and halogens (e.g., I, Br, and Cl). Non-limiting characteristics and examples of leaving groups can be found, for example in Organic Chemistry, 2nd ed., Francis Carey (1992), pages 328-331; Introduction to Organic Chemistry, 2nd ed., Andrew Streitwieser and Clayton Heathcock (1981), pages 169-171; and Organic Chemistry, 5th ed. John McMurry (2000), pages 398 and 408; all of which are incorporated herein by reference for the limited purpose of disclosing characteristics and examples of leaving groups.
In some embodiments, LG1 can be an optionally substituted sulfonyl, an optionally substituted phosphonate, an alkali metal or a transition metal. Various of optionally substituted sulfonyls and optionally substituted phosphonate are suitable. In some embodiments, the optionally substituted sulfonyl can be an optionally substituted tosyl. In some embodiments, the optionally substituted phosphonate can be an optionally substituted di(alkyl)cyanophosphonate (for example, di(ethyl)cyanophosphonate).
A non-limiting list of examples of the reagents having the structure LG1-R1 include tosyl azide, sulfonyl azide, lithium azide, sodium azide, potassium azide, cesium azide, zinc azide, tosyl cyanide, tosyl chloride, potassium thiocyanate, potassium cyanate, sodium nitrite, (E)-(phenylsulfonyl)methanal O-benzyl oxime, (E)-N-(benzyloxy)-1-(phenylsulfonyl)methanimidoyl cyanide, diethyl phosphorocyanidate, tert-butylisocyanate, and an optionally substituted sulfonyl oxime.
In other embodiments, the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can have the structure R1A-R1B, wherein R1B attaches to a carbon of [1.1.1]propellane and undergoes a further transformation to form R1, and R1A forms a byproduct. An example of R1A-R1B is molecular oxygen. One oxygen atom of molecular oxygen attached to a carbon of [1.1.1]propellane and the other oxygen forms an oxide byproduct (e.g., silanoxy byproduct).

In some embodiments, the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can have the structure of an optionally substituted R1—C2-6 alkenyl
Hydride Sources
Various reagents can be used to donate a hydrogen to [1.1.1]propellane. As used herein, “hydride source” is a reagent capable of donating a H− or H-radical (H•). Suitable hydride sources can transfer a hydride to [1.1.1]propellane or the metal center of the Group VII or IX transition metal compound to give a metal-hydride complex.
In some embodiments, the hydride source can be a metal-based hydride source. Examples include, but are not limited to, alkali metal-based hydrides, and alkali metal-based borohydrides (such as, sodium borohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride, lithium borohydride and sodium triacetoxyborohydride). In other embodiments, the hydride source can be a non-metal-based hydride source. Examples of non-metal-based hydride sources include, but are not limited to, silanes (for example, phenylsilane and methyldiphenylsilane), 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDSO) and an optionally substituted borane (such as, BH3, BH3-complex, 9-Borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN), and isopinocampheylborane).
Hydride source reagents can be obtained from commercial vendors and/or prepared utilizing methods known to those skilled in the art. The deuterated equivalents can also be obtained from commercial vendors and/or prepared using commercially available reagents, for example, as described in Keinan et al., J. Org. Chem., 1987, 52, 2576-2580 and Harvey et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1957, 79, 1437-1439. which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. In some embodiments, a method provided herein can include adding a first portion of a hydride source and a second portion of a hydride source.
The amounts of [1.1.1]propellane, the Group VII or Group IX transition metal compound, the hydride source and the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can vary. In some embodiments, one or more of the [1.1.1]propellane, the Group VII or Group IX transition metal compound, the hydride source and the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can be in excess to another one or more of the aforementioned compounds. In some embodiments, the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can be in excess of [1.1.1]propellane and/or the hydride source. In other embodiments, the hydride source can be in excess of [1.1.1]propellane and/or the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group. In still other embodiments, [1.1.1]propellane can be in excess of the hydride source and/or the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group. The amount in excess can vary. For example, the amount in excess can be about 1.2 times or more, about 1.5 times or more, about 2 times or more, about 3 times or more, or about 4 times or more. In other embodiments, one or more of [1.1.1]propellane, the Group VII or Group IX transition metal compound, the hydride source and the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group can be in approximately equal molar amounts to another one or more of the aforementioned compounds.
The order in which each of [1.1.1]propellane, the Group VII or Group IX transition metal compound, the hydride source and the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group are combined can also vary. For example, the Group VII or Group IX transition metal compound can be combined with the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group, followed by the addition of [1.1.1]propellane and the hydride source. Alternatively, [1.1.1]propellane can be added before the reagent capable of contributing all or a part of a substituent group.

Additional details for preparing substituted bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane compounds are provided in Table 1.
It should be noted that one skilled in the art would know how to modify the procedures set forth in the illustrative schemes and examples to arrive at the desired products.
A solution of catalyst A or B (2-5 mol %) was dissolved in either a 3:1 or 2:1 mixture of anhydrous MeOH and anhydrous Et2O containing 1 ppm BHT (10 mM final concentration) and stirred under N2 for 2 mins. Propellane (1 eq.) and the appropriate trapping agent (1.2-1.5 eq.) were added followed by PhSiH3 (1.0 eq.). After stirring overnight at RT (room temperature), the mixture was concentrated to afford the desired compound that was either further purified by flash chromatography on silica gel or used without further purification.
Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1-carbonitrile was prepared according to the general procedure of Example 1 using tosyl cyanide, catalyst A and phenylsilane in MeOH/Et2O. 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOH-d4) δ 2.40 (s, 1H), 2.31 (s, 6H).
N-(benzyloxy)bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1-carbimidoyl cyanide was prepared according to the general procedure of Example 1 using N-(benzyloxy)-1-(methylsulfonyl)methanimidoyl cyanide, catalyst A and phenylsilane in MeOH/Et2O. The product was isolated as a mixture of isomers (E and Z). Major isomer: 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOH-d4) δ 7.37-7.33 (m, 5H), 5.24 (s, 2H, 2.53 (s, 1H), 2.07 (s, 6H). Minor isomer: 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOH-d4) δ 7.37-7.33 (m, 5H), 5.22 (s, 1H), 2.51 (s, 1H), 2.19 (s, 6H).
N-(benzyloxy)bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1-carbimidoyl cyanide was prepared according to the general procedure of Example 1 using tosylmethanal O-benzyl oxime, catalyst A and phenylsilane in MeOH/Et2O. LC/MS (APCI) m/z 202.1 [C13H15NO+H+].
1-azidobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane was prepared according to the general procedure of Example 1 using tosyl azide, catalyst B and phenysilane in MeOH/Et2O.
To the crude azide from the previous step in MeOH/Et2O was added a suspension of CuSO4 (0.1 eq.), NaBH4 (1 eq.) in MeOH at 0° C. NaBH4 (4 eq.) was added portionwise over 1 h. The mixture was stirred overnight, and then acidified with 4N HCl in dioxane. The mixture was then concentration to dryness followed by trituration with Et2O to afford 1-aminobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane. LC/MS (APCI) m/z 84.1 [C5H9N+H]+.
Those skilled in the art understand that 1-aminobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane is formed from 1-azidobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane using the conditions described herein. (See Goh, Y. L., et al., Organic Letters 2014, 16(7), 1884-1887). Therefore, obtaining 1-aminobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane from the conditions described herein is evidence of the formation of 1-azidobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane from BCP using tosyl azide, catalyst B and phenysilane in MeOH/Et2O.
Under a nitrogen atmosphere, Mn(dpm)3 (0.02 mmol) is dissolved in iso-propanol (5 mL) at room temperature and then cooled to 0° C. Phenylsilane (1 mmol) and tosyl chloride (1.5 mmol; addition reagent) dissolved in dichloromethane (5 mL) are added, followed by the addition of [1.1.1]propellane solution (1 mmol, ˜0.2-0.5 M ether/pentane solution). The resulting mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 21 h. The reaction is quenched by adding water and brine. The mixture is stirred 5 min and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers are dried (MgSO4), filtered and the volatiles removed under reduced pressure. The crude residue is then used in the next step, otherwise it is subjected to flash chromatography to give 1-chlorobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane.
The general procedure of Example 6 is repeated using oxygen as an addition reagent, and to produce bicyclo[1.1.1]pentan-1-ol. Alternatively, the general procedure of Example 1 is followed using the appropriate reagents.
The general procedure of Example 6 is repeated using potassium thiocyanate as an addition reagent, producing 1-thiocyanatobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane. Alternatively, the general procedure of Example 1 is followed using the appropriate reagents.
The general procedure of Example 6 is repeated using potassium cyanate as addition reagent, to produce 1-isocyanatobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane. Alternatively, the general procedure of Example 1 is followed using the appropriate reagents.
The general procedure of Example 6 is repeated using sodium nitrite as an addition reagent, to produce 1-nitrosobicyclo[1.1.1]pentane. Alternatively, the general procedure of Example 1 is followed using the appropriate reagents.
Although the foregoing has been described in some detail by way of illustrations and examples for purposes of clarity and understanding, it will be understood by those of skill in the art that numerous and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure. Therefore, it should be clearly understood that the forms disclosed herein are illustrative only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure, but rather to also cover all modification and alternatives coming with the true scope and spirit of the invention.
