[PMID: 38971849 PMCID: PMC11227567 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-50081-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Direct assembly of complex fluorinated motifs from simple fluorine sources is an attractive frontier of synthetic chemistry. Reported herein is an unconventional protocol for achieving tetrafluoroisopropylation by using commercially available CF2HSO2Na as a convenient source of the tetrafluoroisopropyl [(CF2H)2CH] group, which finds widespread applications in life science and material science. Visible-light-induced hydrotetrafluoroisopropylation of alkenes and carbotetrafluoroisopropylation of alkynes have been thus developed. Various structurally diverse α-tetrafluoroisopropyl carbonyls and cyclopentanones are selectively constructed under mild conditions. A photocatalytic triple difluoromethylation cascade, driven by consecutive reductive radical/polar crossover processes, leads to the direct assembly of a tetrafluoroisopropyl moiety from CF2HSO2Na. This C1-to-C3 fluoroalkylation protocol provides a practical strategy for the rapid construction of polyfluorinated compounds that are otherwise difficult to access, thus significantly enhancing the boundary of fluoroalkylation chemistry.

Visible Light-Induced Radical Cascade Difluoromethylation/Cyclization of Unactivated Alkenes: Access to CF 2H-Substituted Polycyclic Imidazoles. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:28129-28143.

Abstract
An efficient and mild protocol for the visible light-induced radical cascade difluoromethylation/cyclization of imidazoles with unactivated alkenes using easily accessible and bench-stable difluoromethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide as the precursor of the -CF2H group has been developed to afford CF2H-substituted polycyclic imidazoles in moderate to good yields. This strategy, along with the construction of Csp3-CF2H/C-C bonds, is distinguished by mild conditions, no requirement of additives, simple operation, and wide substrate scope. In addition, the mechanistic experiments have indicated that the difluoromethyl radical pathway is essential for the methodology.

Abstract
Our research regarding side-chain fluorinated vitamin D3 analogues has explored a series of efficient fluorination methods. In this study, a new electrophilic stereo-selective fluorination methodology at C24 and C22 positions of the vitamin D3 side-chain was developed using N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) and CD-ring imides with an Evans chiral auxiliary (26,27,30).

Abstract
Three novel analogues of C22-fluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (5-7) were synthesized and evaluated to investigate the effects of side-chain fluorination on biological activity and metabolism of vitamin D. These novel analogues were constructed by convergent synthesis applying the Wittig-Horner coupling reaction between CD-ring ketones (41,42,44) and A-ring phosphine oxide (11). The introduction of C22-fluoro units was achieved by stereoselective deoxy-fluorination for synthesizing 5 and 6 or two-step cationic fluorination for 7. The absolute configuration of the C22-fluoro-8-oxo-CD-ring (39) was confirmed by X-ray crystallographic structure determination. The basic biological activity of the side-chain fluorinated analogues, including compounds (5-7), was evaluated. Generally, osteocalcin promoter transactivation activity decreased in the order of C24-fluoro, C23-fluoro, and C22-fluoro analogues. In addition, the metabolic stability of C22-fluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (5-7) against hCYP24A1 metabolism was also evaluated. 22,22-Difluoro-25(OH)D3 (7) was more stable against hCYP24A1 metabolism compared with its non-fluorinated counterpart 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (1), but fluorination at the C22 position had little effect on the metabolic stability compared with C24- and C23-fluoro analogues. Our research clarified that side-chain fluorination in vitamin D markedly changes CYP24A1 metabolic stability depending on the fluorinating position.
