Vitamin B12-Photocatalyzed Cyclopropanation of Electron-Deficient Alkenes Using Dichloromethane as the Methylene SourceJohn Hayford G. Teye-Kau, Mayokun J. Ayodele, and Spencer P. Pitre*Department of Chemistry, Oklahoma State University, 107 Physical Sciences, Stillwater, OK 74078, USA—Angew Chem. Int. Ed., 2024, DOI: 10.1002/anie.202316064Recommended by Shi Li_ MOCABSTRACT: A vitamin B12-photocatalyzed strategy was reported for the cyclopropanation of electron-deficient alkenes using dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) as the methylene source. The reaction has excellent functional group tolerance, is highly chemoselective, and the scope can be extended to other 1,1-dichloroalkanes for the preparation of D2-cyclopropyl and methyl-substituted cyclopropyl adducts, all of which are important isosteres in medical chemistry.Background and this workMechanistic designSubstrate ScopeMechanistic studiesFormation of the Co(I) oxidation state of Vitamin B12 and the subsequent SN2-type nucleophilic substitution with CH2Cl2 toformintermediate I under reaction conditions.Formation of •CH2Cl radicalsSummary and CommentsProf. Spencer P. Pitre et al developed a practical and efficient Vitamin B12 photocatalyzed approach for the cyclopropanation of electron-deficient alkenes using CH2Cl2 as the methylene source. The reaction works for a broad range of electron-deficient alkenes, proceeds in high chemoselectivity, and has increased functional group tolerance compared to other state-of-the-art methods. This approach will be of great value to medicinal chemists for the late-stage incorporation of cyclopropyl isosteres in pharmaceutically active compounds due to the biocompatibility and water solubility of Vitamin B12.Spencer P. Pitre教授等人在光照条件下以CH2Cl2作为亚甲基源,开发了一种高效实用的维生素B12催化的缺电子烯烃的环丙烷化反应。与其他先进的方法相比,该反应适用于广泛的缺电子烯烃,具有更高的化学选择性和官能团耐受性。由于维生素B12的生物相容性和水溶性,这是一种药物化学家在药物活性化合物中后期引入环丙基的好方法,具有重要的应用价值。
