CAREER New methods functionalize pyridines

项目摘要

With this CAREER award, the Chemical Synthesis Program of the NSF Chemistry Division supports the research of Professor Andrew McNally in the Department of Chemistry at Colorado State University. Professor McNally and his students develop new synthetic methods that allow common building blocks of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals to be transformed into biologically active derivatives. In particular, pyridines are among the most widely encountered structures in current drug compounds. Research in Professor McNally's laboratory exploits the unique reactivity of new bond-forming reactions on pyridines, to make complex pharmaceuticals. This project is a combination of organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry and catalysis that is preparing his students for careers at the forefront of the chemical sciences. Educational activities focus on increasing enrollment into undergraduate programs, preparing graduate students for the pharmaceutical industry via a new medicinal chemistry program and changing the public's perception of chemistry in society through a new series of 'pub lectures'.Pyridines are used widely across the chemical sciences including applications as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, materials and ligands. Despite their importance, there are deficiencies in the current synthetic toolkit to prepare valuable pyridine derivatives. This project develops new chemical transformation of pyridines using phosphorus compounds as reagents and catalysts. Three distinct questions are addressed in this project: 1) Can phosphonium salts be formed on complex polypyridines with 'switchable' control of site-selectivity? Can phosphorus ligand-coupling reactions be used to enable sp2-sp3 coupling in new pyridine alkylation reactions? 3) Can phosphorus intermediates, and new catalytic approaches, enable 3-position selective halogenation, trifluoromethylation and amination reactions? The educational plan focuses on increasing the enrollment in the undergraduate chemistry program through a chemistry in context lecture series. At the graduate level, students are enrolling in a new medicinal chemistry course that includes guest lectures from medicinal chemists. The public is engaged through a new 'pub lecture' series that tackles contemporary and controversial aspects of chemistry in society.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

有了这个职业奖，NSF化学部的化学合成计划支持科罗拉多州立大学化学系的Andrew McNally教授的研究。McNally教授和他的学生开发了新的合成方法，使药物和农用化学品的常见构建模块转化为生物活性衍生物。特别地，吡啶是当前药物化合物中最广泛遇到的结构之一。McNally教授实验室的研究利用了吡啶上新的成键反应的独特反应性，以制造复杂的药物。该项目是有机合成，药物化学和催化的结合，为他的学生在化学科学的前沿做好准备。教育活动的重点是增加本科课程的入学率，通过新的药物化学课程为制药行业的研究生做好准备，并通过一系列新的“酒吧讲座”改变公众对化学在社会中的看法。吡啶广泛应用于化学科学，包括药物，农用化学品，材料和配体。尽管它们的重要性，但在当前的合成工具包中存在制备有价值的吡啶衍生物的缺陷。本计画以磷化合物为试剂及催化剂，开发吡啶类化合物的化学转化新方法。该项目解决了三个不同的问题：1）通过对位点选择性的“可切换”控制，能否在复杂的聚吡啶上形成鏻盐？在新的吡啶烷基化反应中，磷配体偶联反应可以用于实现sp2-sp3偶联吗？3)磷中间体和新的催化方法能否实现3位选择性卤化、三氟甲基化和胺化反应？该教育计划的重点是通过一系列化学讲座增加本科化学课程的入学人数。在研究生阶段，学生们正在报名参加一门新的药物化学课程，其中包括药物化学家的客座讲座。公众通过一个新的“酒吧讲座”系列参与，该系列解决了社会中化学的当代和有争议的方面。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
