Rest of the Year Lecture 71 (4/20) Acid Derivatives and Condensations (e.g. F&J Ch. 18-19) Lecture 72-73 (4/22,25) Carbohydrates - Fischer's Glucose Proof (e.g. F&J Ch. 22) Lecture 74 (4/27) Synthesis of an Unnatural Product (Review) (Anti-Aromatic Cyclobutadiene in a Clamshell) Lecture 75 (4/29) Synthesis of a Natural Product (Review) (Woodward's Synthesis of Cortisone)
3
New Processes Desired Aromatic cross-coupling (avoiding haloaromatics) 6 Aldehyde or ketone + NH 3 & reduction to chiral amine 4 Asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins/enamines/imines 4 Greener fluorination methods 4 Nitrogen chemistry avoiding azides (N 3 ), H 2 NNH 2, etc. 3 Asymmetric hydramination 2 Greener electrophilic nitrogen (not ArSO 2 N 3, NO + ) 2 Votes Asymmetric addition of HCN 2 NH 3 + NADH H H+H+ glutamic acid Like Nature

Very general for acidic Nu-H (pK a < 15) e.g. R-CO 2 - (RO) 2 PO 2 - (RCO) 2 N - N 3 - “active methylene compounds” Mitsunobu Reaction Nu - Ph 3 P O R Ph 3 P O R Nu great leaving group Oyo Mitsunobu (1934-2003) O. Mitsunobu Synthesis (1981)

Mitsunobu Reaction Oyo Mitsunobu (1934-2003) H AcO (R) H HO (R) - OH OH H (S) Allows correcting a synthetic “mistake”! O. Mitsunobu Synthesis (1981) Mitsunobu Inversion Ph 3 P DEAD AcOH
8
Mitsunobu Mechanism O. Mitsunobu Synthesis (1981) Nu - Ph 3 P O R Ph 3 P O R Nu great leaving group Ph 3 P H OR -3 need an oxidizing agent Diethylazodicarboxylate (DEAD) (reduced DEAD) Eliminating H 2 O (18 mol.wt.) generates 450 mol.wt. of by-products. “atom inefficient” but complete separation requires chromatography! unless hooked to polymer beads Three Nucleophiles “tuned” just right OR 2 H + H+H+ H OR 2 pK a < 15 if X - attacks P +, it comes off again irreversible
