SYNTHESIS OF PYRROLES IN THE PRESENCE OF β–

CYCLODEXTRIN IN WATER

108

INTRODUCTION

Heterocyclic molecules represent the most utilized scaffolds for the discovery of novel

synthetic drugs1like anti-hypertensive and anti-coagulation drugs

2,3 the pyrrole moiety can

be found both in natural and synthetic pharmaceutical products.4 In particular, pyrrole

derivatives play an important role as antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory,5antioxidant

agents,6and penicillin antibiotics.

7There are numerous drugs such as Tolmetin,

Zomepirac, and Bufotenin containing the pyrrole skeleton as shown in the (Figure

1). Moreover, the pyrrole ring system is an important structural attribute present in many

bioactive natural products,8 therapeutic compounds,

9 and new organic materials.

10 In

addition, the biological importance of pyrrole-containing natural products such as heme,

chlorophyll and vitamin B12 has stimulated extensive research on the synthesis and

reactivity of pyrrole derivatives.11

These compounds exhibit remarkable activities such as

antitumor, immunosuppressant, and anti HIV,12

and also find wide use in material science

and as structural elements in molecular recognition studies.13

The construction of the pyrrole ring system typically involves a multistep approach from

preformed intermediates, such as the classic Paal-Knorr cyclization reaction of 1, 4-

dicarbonyl compounds and amines.14

Knorr approach involves the condensation of α-aminoketone or α-amino-β-ketoester with a

ketone or ketoester. The major drawback of this reaction is the self-condensation of

starting material α-aminoketone and as a consequence, this reaction is not regioselective,

when unsymmetrical β-diketones are used.

obtained by the 1, 2-addition of 1, 3-dicarbonyl compounds to the in situ generated 2H-

azirine intermediate from vinyl azide whereas in copper catalyzed method, 1, 4-addition

reaction of ethyl acetoacetate to vinyl azide gives polysubstituted pyrrole.

PRESENT WORK

Although there have been numerous synthetic methods reported for the polyfunctionalized

pyrroles, many of the aforementioned protocols suffer from drawbacks such as use of

anhydrous hazardous organic solvents, expensive catalytic systems, which are moisture

sensitive and tedious isolation procedures, which limit their practical applications. In view

of these short comings, exploration and development of a mild, efficient and

environmentally benign neutral synthetic procedure is highly desirable.

Due to increasing economic and environmental concerns, synthetic organic chemists are

looking for novel procedures and green protocols to optimize the efficacy leading to ideal

synthetic routes where complex molecules can be obtained by a single and multi-step

tandem reaction without isolating the intermediates. Multi-component reactions are tandem

reactions,35

in which the target molecule is prepared in a single one-pot operation

incorporating more or less all the atoms of starting materials. Multi-component reactions

(MCRs) are excellent reaction strategies, being employed in the synthesis of large

combinatorial libraries of heterocyclic compounds, which possess interesting

pharmaceutical applications.36

Multi-component reactions (MCRs) are convergent,

classically defined as reactions, where more than two starting materials react to form a

product in a single synthetic operation incorporating all the atoms of the starting materials.

Therefore, we envisioned a generally applicable, environmentally benign and mild

methodology for the synthesis of substituted pyrroles via multi-component condensation

protocol using β-cyclodextrin. Herein, the remarkable catalytic activity of β-cyclodextrin is

demonstrated in the reaction of amines, DEAD/DMAD and phenacyl bromide, to afford

substituted pyrroles under neutral conditions in water. (Scheme 22)

Scheme 22

In general, all the reactions were carried out by dissolving β-cyclodextrin in water and then

adding the amine followed by the addition of DEAD/DMAD and phenacyl bromide at 50-

60 oC to get the corresponding substituted pyrroles in high yields (80–89%) Table 2. This

method was compatible with various types of diversely substituted primary and secondary

116

aromatic amines. β-CD can be recovered and reused. All the products were isolated and

characterized by 1H,

13C NMR, mass and IR spectroscopy. The reaction was also

successful when NH4OAc is used as amine source and produced dimethyl 5-phenyl-1H-

pyrrole-2,3-dicarboxylate pyrrole in quantitative yield. The electronic factors of

substituents in the amines have played key role in governing the product yield.

inclusion complex

The catalytic activity of the β-CD was established by the fact that no pyrrole formation

was observed in the absence of β-cyclodextrin, even after longer reaction times. The

evidence for the formation of highly substituted pyrroles in presence of β-CD was

supported by 1H NMR studies of the inclusion complex between aniline and β-CD. The

hydrophobic environment of β-CD facilitates the formation of pyrrole via inclusion

complex of aniline/diethyl acetylenedicarboxylate carbanion stabilized by the primary and

secondary–OH groups of β-CD, which further reacts with aldehyde as indicated in

Figure 2.

117

Table 1. 400 MHz 1H-Chemical shifts of aniline and β-CD protons in free and

complexed statea

A comparative study of 1H NMR spectra of aniline, β-CD and β-CD/aniline complex was

undertaken (Table 1). In the 1H NMR spectrum (in DMSO-d6) of aniline, the aromatic

protons from ortho position appear as a doublet at 6.61 ppm (J = 8.2 Hz), while meta and

para protons appear as triplets at 7.06 (J = 7.4 Hz) and 6.55 (J = 6.7 Hz), respectively.

Amine protons in aniline appear as singlet at 5.05 ppm. The 1H NMR spectrum of β-

CD/aniline inclusion complex shows upfield shift of aromatic protons as well as amine

protons of aniline. This upfield shift of aniline protons can be due to the inclusion of

aniline inside β-CD cavity. Apart from the upfield shift of aniline protons due to the

incorporation inside the β-CD cavity, the protons located in the β-CD cavity (C3–H and

C5–H) are also shifted upfield in 0.02 ppm due to the magnetic anisotropy caused by the

guest (aniline) molecule.37

In conclusion, an elegant and simple methodology was presented for the synthesis of

highly substituted pyrroles in the presence of β-cyclodextrin in water. This straightforward

methodology may find wide spread applications in organic and medicinal chemistry. (This

work was published in Chin. Chem. Lett., 2012, 23, 1331-1334)

EXPERIMENTAL

General procedure for the synthesis of substituted pyrroles:

β-Cyclodextrin (10 mol %) was dissolved in water (15 ml), and to this clear solution,

aniline (1.0 mmol) was added, stirred for 15 min, followed by the addition of

dimethyl/diethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD/DEAD 1.0 mmol) and phenacyl bromide

(1.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at 50-60 oC until completion of the reaction

as indicated by TLC. The reaction mixture was cooled to 5 oC and β-cyclodextrin was

filtered. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 x 10 ml). The combined

organic layers were washed with water, saturated brine solution, and dried over anhydrous

Na2SO4. The combined organic layers were evaporated under reduced pressure and the

resulting crude product was purified by column chromatography using ethyl acetate and

120

hexane (2:8) as eluent. The identity and purity of the product were confirmed by 1H,

13C

NMR, and mass spectra.

Preparation of β-CD-aniline inclusion complex:

β-CD (1.0 mmol) was dissolved in water (15 mL) by warming to 60 oC until a clear

solution was formed, and then aniline (1.0 mmol) was added drop wise, stirred for 3h and

allowed to come to room temperature. It was cooled to 5 oC and β-cd was filtered.
