Synthesis of Borylated Hydrazino Acid Derivatives

Abstract

α-Boryl-α-hydrazinoacetic acid is a highly functionalized boron-containing building block that can be easily accessed from readily available α-borylacetaldehyde. The hydrazine motif can be converted into a variety of α-borylated azoles and diazines in a straightforward protocol. Furthermore, the carboxy group can be derivatized to afford novel organoboron compounds that should find applications in various cross-coupling transformations.

Organoboron compounds have found widespread applications in various fields of inquiry.[1] The ability of boron to reversibly bind to heteroatom nucleophiles, combined with boric acid’s low toxicity (main metabolite of organoboron compounds; LD₅₀ comparable to table salt) have allowed the identification of numerous boron-containing molecules as promising candidates in drug discovery.[1d] [2] Among the many boron-containing scaffolds, borylated peptidomimetics derived from α-aminoboronic acids often display potent antitumor properties.[3] As such, the synthesis of α-amino­boronic acids has been a subject of ongoing interest (Scheme [1]).[4]

Compared to α-aminoboronic acids, α-hydrazinoboronic acids have received no attention despite the prevalence of hydrazine building blocks in organic chemistry.[5] The hydrazine motif is frequently employed in the synthesis of heterocyclic scaffolds with biomedical applications.[6] In addition to being versatile synthetic handles, incorporation of the hydrazine functional group in peptidic scaffolds results in aza-β-peptides, which can display new secondary structures when compared to the parental forms.[7] As part of our ongoing efforts in the pursuit of unique boron-containing building blocks,[8] we report the synthesis and utility of α-boryl-α-hydrazinoacetic acid 1.

Scheme 1 Synthesis of α-aminoboronates: (a) Cu-catalyzed borylation of enantiopure sulfinyl imines. (b) Ugi 4C reaction using α-boryl isocy­anides with aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and ammonia. (c) Reductive amination of MIDA acyl boronates and potassium acyltrifluoroborates. (d) Rh-catalyzed amine-directed C(sp³)–H borylation. (e) Synthesis of α-boryl-α-hydrazinoacetic acid 1.

Treatment of readily available α-borylacetaldehyde 2 [8a] with DBAD (di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate) in the presence of catalytic amount of proline yielded α-boryl-α-hydrazinoacetaldehyde 3 with complete consumption of 2 (Scheme [2]).[9] No side products were generated based on ¹H NMR spectroscopy of the crude reaction mixture. Accordingly, we moved forward with the reaction by carrying out a Pinnick oxidation.[8a] To our delight, highly functionalized MIDA boronate 1 was isolated by filtration in 86% yield over two steps in a one-pot fashion.

With 1 in hand, we set out to explore the utility of the hydrazine moiety. Deprotection of the Boc (tert-butoxycarbonyl) group in a DCM/TFA mixture provided the free hydrazine salt 4 in quantitative yield after 30 minutes without any signs of MIDA deprotection or protodeboronation. Upon evaporation of the solvent, reaction with 1,3- or 1,4-electrophiles in MeCN yielded a series of N-heterocycle-substituted α-carboxy MIDA boronates 5 (Scheme [3]). Reaction with acetylacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal produced a 4:1 mixture of 1,5- and 1,3-substituted pyrazole 5a in quantitative yield. Condensation with acetylacetone and dibenzoylmethane gave 5b and 5c, respectively. However, the reaction to give 5c did not go to completion after 20 h, presumably due to reduced reactivity of dibenzoylmethane. Aryl keto-enamines reacted efficiently with 4 to form the corresponding 5-arylpyrazoles in high yields (5d–5f). Cyclization with arylated malondialdehydes successfully gave the corresponding 4-arylpyrazoles (5g and 5h). Pyrazolone 5i was generated when ethyl acetoacetate was used as the bis-electrophile. Similarly, methyl 2-formylbenzoate and 2-formylphenylboronic acid were suitable 1,4-electrophiles under these conditions and the reactions provided phthalazinone 5j and 1,2,3-diazaborinine 5k, respectively. Lastly, condensation with phthalic anhydride afforded a mixture of phthalazinedione 5l and N-aminophthalimide 5l′ which are separable by column chromatography.

We next turned our attention towards the derivatization of the carboxy functional group (Scheme [4]). Methylation of the carboxylic acid with TMSCHN₂ gave the methyl ester in good yield (6a). Activation of the acid with HATU and subsequent reduction of the activated ester with NaBH₄ gave β-hydrazino alcohol 6b. Similarly, borylated oxadiazole 6c could be synthesized using a one-pot HATU-mediated coupling protocol adapted from our previous report.[8e] Activation of the carboxylic acid with DIC in the presence of 4-nitrobenzyl alcohol provided the corresponding 4-nitrobenzyl ester 6d in excellent yield.[10] Additionally, redox-active ester 6e could be synthesized on a 1-g scale in good yield using N-hydroxyphthalimide as the nucleophile. Reaction with DPPA (diphenylphosphoryl azide) under mild heat provided triazolidinone 6f via the Curtius rearrangement. This represents one of the few examples of a boronate that is attached to a carbon atom with the oxidation state of an aldehyde.[11] Subsequent N-alkylation of 6f with 4-nitrobenzyl bromide gave 6g, the structure of which was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction (Figure [1]).

In conclusion, we have developed a straightforward synthesis of α-carboxy-α-hydrazino MIDA boronate 1 using a column-free protocol from readily available aldehyde 2. The highly functionalized building block was used to access a variety of boro-methylated heterocycles and carboxy derivatives. The resulting borylated compounds 5 and 6 have considerable potential in transition-metal-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling and decarboxylative cross-coupling to access value-added products.

• 10 Based on separation by HPLC on a chiral stationary phase column (see Supporting Information), the e.r. of 6d, and thus 1 by correlation, was determined to be 60:40. Due to the almost racemic nature of 1, e.r. determination of derivatives 5 and 6 were not measured.
