Asymmetric Organocatalysis at the Service of Medicinal Chemistry
نویسنده
چکیده
The application of the most representative and up-to-date examples of homogeneous asymmetric organocatalysis to the synthesis of molecules of interest in medicinal chemistry is reported. The use of different types of organocatalysts operative via noncovalent and covalent interactions is critically reviewed and the possibility of running some of these reactions on large or industrial scale is described. A comparison between the organo- and metal-catalysed methodologies is offered in several cases, thus highlighting the merits and drawbacks of these two complementary approaches to the obtainment of very popular on market drugs or of related key scaffolds.

Sequential stereodivergent organocatalysis and programmed organocascades.
Asymmetric organocatalysis has attracted great interest as a synthetic strategy during the past decade. But, although the inertness of organocatalysts to moisture and oxygen offers great opportunities to tune the reaction conditions, the stereoswitchable character of organocatalysts has not been systematically studied, and most findings have been serendipitous. In this Perspective, we emphasize...
متن کاملMechanochemistry assisted asymmetric organocatalysis: A sustainable approach
Ball-milling and pestle and mortar grinding have emerged as powerful methods for the development of environmentally benign chemical transformations. Recently, the use of these mechanochemical techniques in asymmetric organocatalysis has increased. This review highlights the progress in asymmetric organocatalytic reactions assisted by mechanochemical techniques.
متن کاملOrganocatalysis with endogenous compounds: towards novel non-enzymatic reactions.
The aldol reaction of the endogeneous compounds acetone and methylglyoxal has been studied using organocatalysis in relation to biologically relevant non-enzymatic reactions. Under preparative conditions, 3-hydroxy-2,5-hexadione, known as Henze's ketol, is formed in high yield and with enantioselectivities up to 88% ee. Furthermore, Henze's ketol is also formed under simulated physiological con...
