Solid-phase synthesis oxidation reactions

Poly(ethylene glycol) supported liquid-phase syntheses by both the reaction of (polyethylene glycol (PEG))-supported imines with nitrile oxides, generated in situ from aldoximes, (300) and 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of nitrile oxide, generated in situ on soluble polymers with a variety of imines (301, 302) have been described. The solid-phase synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazolines via cycloaddition of nitrile oxide generated in situ on solid support with imines has also been elaborated (303). These syntheses of 1,2,4-oxadiazolines provide a library of 1,2,4-oxadiazolines in good yields and purity. 

The most widely used, and often most convenient reagents for such one-pot reactions are sodium hypochlorite (45) or hypobromite (16). These reactions are performed in the presence of an organic base (generally triethylamine) that normally enhances the yield of cycloaddition products (45). This method was employed for many intermolecular reactions (71) and also seems especially suited for intramolecular ones (72-77) as well as for the solid-phase synthesis (78) of 2-isoxazolines. Hypohalite can also be replaced by sodium broruite in combination with a catalytic amount of tri-u-butyltin chloride (79). In a related method, O-tributylstannyl oximes were treated with tert-butyl hypochlorite to produce nitrile oxides that were trapped with aUcenes or alkynes to afford the corresponding isoxazolines or isoxazoles in moderate to good yield (80). 

Silyl ethers of aliphatic alcohols are inert towards strong bases, oxidants (ozone [81], Dess-Martin periodinane [605], iodonium salts [610,611], sulfur trioxide-pyridine complex [398]), and weak acids (e.g., 1 mol/L HC02H in DCM [605]), but can be selectively cleaved by treatment with HF in pyridine or with TBAF (Table 3.32). Phenols can also be linked to insoluble supports as silyl ethers, but these are less stable than alkyl silyl ethers and can even be cleaved by treatment with acyl halides under basic reaction conditions [595], Silyl ether attachment has been successfully used for the solid-phase synthesis of oligosaccharides [600,601,612,613] and peptides [614]. 

Support-bound organoselenium compounds have mainly been used as synthetic intermediates and linkers. The use of organoselenium compounds as linkers for solid-phase synthesis has been investigated by several groups [1-4]. The selenium-carbon bond is stable under a broad variety of reaction conditions, but can be selectively cleaved by tin radicals or by oxidants (see Sections 3.15.1 and 3.16.4). 

Disulfides, diselenides, and ditellurides can be oxidized by hypervalent iodine compounds quite easily. Depending on the reaction conditions disulfides can be oxidized to sulfinic esters [59] or thiosulfonic S-esters [60,61]. Diselenides can be transformed into selenosulfonates [62]. Arenetellurinic mixed anhydrides are mild oxidants and can be obtained by oxidation of the corresponding ditellurides as shown in Scheme 9 [63]. Recently it was shown that a thioacetal based linker for solid-phase synthesis can be cleaved oxidatively using [bis(trifluoro-acetoxy)iodo]benzene 4 [64]. 

Polymer-supported Wittig reagents have recently been developed as an extension to the traditional reagents.29 For example, polystyryldiphenylphosphine has been developed in an attempt to replace the use of triphenylphosphine in the preparation of phosphoranes (see Protocol 1). The hope is that these polymer-bound regents will overcome the practical problem of removing the triphenylphosphine oxide by-product formed in Wittig reactions. Polymer supported phosphonates and Wittig substrates have also been prepared for use in solid phase synthesis and combinatorial chemistry.30... 

Other polymeric substrates, such as poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) and graft polymers derived from hydroxyl group containing crosslinked polystyrene and ethylene oxide are also nsed as solid phases. In the latter example diisopropylcarbodiimide is used in the coupling reaction. Also, diisopropylcarbodiimide/HOBt is used in the solid phase synthesis of polypeptides. Ammonium salts derived from polymer bound N-hydroxysuccinimide are also used in the EDC mediated amidation reaction. ... 

A solid-phase Ugi-Reissert reaction on chloroformate resin, has been reported. The product, the ot-carbamoylated isoquinoline 230, is released by oxidative cleavage (Scheme 33a). Interestingly, the enamide moiety in the adduct can be exploited to perform this process in tandem with a Povarov MCR [189, 190]. In this way, by interaction of dihydroisoquinoline 231 with aldehydes, anilines and a suitable Lewis acid catalyst, the polyheterocyclic system 232 was prepared (Scheme 33b). The Zhu group devised an innovative approach for the synthesis of this class of compounds. They employed the heterocyclic amine 233, which was oxidized in situ to the dihydroisoquinoline 234 with IBX, to undergo the classic Ugi reaction. Remarkably, all the components are chemically compatible, allowing the sequence to proceed as a true MCR (Scheme 33c) [191]. 

Glycosyl phosphates, building blocks in automated solid-phase synthesis of complex oligosaccharides, were prepared via a 1,2-epoxide (O Scheme 13). Oxidation of the appropriately substituted D-glucal 28 with DMDO followed by reaction with dialkyl phosphate provided the -phosphate 33, which anomerized further to the a-analog [31]. 

The redox coupling found by Mukaiyama makes use of the facile oxidation of phosphines and the strength of the P—O bond (Table 5). In each case the reaction proceeds via an acyloxyphosphonium intermediate (equation 8). The oxidation is carried out by disulfides ° ° and related compounds, DEAD," and halogens. Although this method has been applied to the solid phase synthesis of peptides, it has not found broad application.

Resin-bound iminophosphoranes 103 derived from the reaction of resin-bound 2-aminobenzimidazole 102 with triphenylphosphine oxide were reacted with aryl isocyanates in an abnormal aza-Wittig reaction with a chemoselectivity that depends on the reaction temperature and the nature of the aryl isocyanate (Scheme 22). The mechanism considered for the solid phase synthesis reaction involves the loss of triphenylphosphin-imide instead of triphenylphosphine oxide, resulting in the formation of isocyanates instead of carbodiimides as intermediates. Optimization studies revealed that employing electron-poor aryl isocyanates at high temperature leads to 95% of the abnormal aza-Wittig products 3-aryl 2,4-dioxo-l,3,5,-triazino[l,2-fl]benzimidazoles 104 [76].
