Hydrolyse assistée par micro-ondes : synthèse de cystéines a-substituées sur échelle multi-grammes; Synthèse catalytique énantiosélective d’alkylidènecyclopropanes 1,1-di-accepteurs
The present M.Sc. thesis will be divided into two main subjects. The first part will be focused on the development of an efficient microwave-assisted hydrolysis of thiazolidines for the synthesis of a-substituted cysteines. The second part will be on the development of methodology for the asymmetric synthesis of 1,1-di-acceptor alkylidenecyclopropanes. First, the role and the importance of quaternary amino acids, more specifically of a-substitued cysteines, will be described, then a review of the available enantioselective methods for their syntheses will be reported. Afterward, the development of a fast and efficient microwave-assisted hydrolysis of thiazolidines will be presented. Finally, the studies toward the applicability of the methodology for the multi-gram synthesis of -substituted cysteines using flow and high-throughput reactors will be detailed. In the second part, the general applications and syntheses of alkylidenecyclopropanes will be described. More specifically, the applications of 1,1-di-acceptor alkylidenecycloproanes as well as their syntheses will be exhaustively covered. Then, the development of a catalytic enantioselective methodology for the synthesis of di-acceptor alkylidenecyclopropanes will be presented. The extension of this methodology for the synthesis of cyclopropane and cyclopropene derivatives, as well as the applications of 1,1-diacceptor alkylidenecyclopropane in stereospecific derivatizations will be briefly discussed.
