Fast Addition of s-Block Organometallic Reagents to CO2-Derived Cyclic Carbonates at Room Temperature, Under Air, and in 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran

Fast addition of highly polar organometallic reagents (RMgX/RLi) to cyclic carbonates (derived from CO2 as a sustainable C1 synthon) has been studied in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as a green reaction medium or in the absence of external volatile organic solvents, at room temperature, and in the presence of air/moisture. These reaction conditions are generally forbidden with these highly reactive main-group organometallic compounds. The correct stoichiometry and nature of the polar organometallic alkylating or arylating reagent allows straightforward synthesis of: highly substituted tertiary alcohols, β-hydroxy esters, or symmetric ketones, working always under air and at room temperature. Finally, an unprecedented one-pot/two-step hybrid protocol is developed through combination of an Al-catalyzed cycloaddition of CO2 and propylene oxide with the concomitant fast addition of RLi reagents to the in situ and transiently formed cyclic carbonate, thus allowing indirect conversion of CO2 into the desired highly substituted tertiary alcohols without need for isolation or purification of any reaction intermediates.

COMPOUNDS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR OCULAR DELIVERY

The present invention provides new prodrags of Sunitinib, Brinzolamide, and Dorzolamide and compositions to treat medical disorders, for example glaucoma, a disorder or abnormality related to an increase in intraocular pressure (TOP), a disorder requiring neuroprotection, age-related macular degeneration, or diabetic retinopathy.

Domino Two-Step Oxidation of β-Alkoxy Alcohols to Hemiacetal Esters: Linking a Stoichiometric Step to an Organocatalytic Step with a Common Organic Oxidant

Primary and secondary β-alkoxy alcohols can be cleanly and efficiently oxidized into hemiacetal esters in a cascade two-step process. mCPBA serves both as a stoichiometric oxidant in the first TEMPO-catalyzed step, converting alcohols to aldehydes/ketones, and as a reagent in the second Baeyer–Villiger stoichiometric oxidation, transforming the aldehydes/ketones into hemiacetal esters. The use of an oxidant common to both steps enables the domino reaction to proceed under a single experimental setting. Longer oxidative cascade sequences are possible when this new methodology is applied to suitable substrates.
