    9:11 is there a reason to suppose, that the cyclometalation proceeds with Pd(II) and not with Pd(0)?

    • @totalsynthesis
      @totalsynthesis  4 ปีที่แล้ว +38

      That particular reaction is Pd(II) catalyzed, not Pd(0) - JACS 1985, 107, 1781 ("A Pd(0) species such as (Ph3P)4Pd does not catalyze reaction after 12h at reflux in THF")
      Related references on mechanism: JACS 1994, 116, 4255 | Acc. Chem. Res 1990, 23, 34
      There are however probably similar, Pd(0)-catalyzed reactions with different conditions/ substrates (had a quick look, e.g. JOC 2004, 69, 6697)

      @ProductionBandit 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Jm Cresencio that would then mean that Pd(0) is catalysing the reaction, which is the purpose of the use of Pd(OAc)2. the acetate ligands are supposed to be quite labile so they come off quite easily, allowing catalytic pathways to initiate requiring the non-complexed Pd(0). a Heck reaction is one such example of this catalytic pathway being used in synthetic application.

    Through out the synthesis, bestbpart is, before disconnection, hypothetical functional group introduction -OH group like acid group on cubane and removal at end. Here did in two steps, thieves formation then treated with tin reagent. Might be can use novel methods, like triethylsilyl hydride to get product in one step to remove -OH group. Overall good lecture and I requesting you provide more and more vedios like this. Thank you.

I would have liked more time to look at the structures before you removed them. I know that there is a pause button, but often I had to rewind a few seconds before pausing because you have already removed them.

    At 13:17. Is it possible that the reagent used in the Wittig-reaction should be Ph3P(+)-CH3? Otherwise, where does the Br go? In the conditions given in the publicaiton there is Ph3PCH3Br written, probably with a missing comma between the reagents Ph3P and CH3Br.

    Great videos! I have one request, though, to make things a bit more easy to follow. Could you use a 'laser pointer' of sorts, to guide us through the molecules as you discuss them? It's sometimes kind of difficult to know which part of the molecule you're talking about, and to follow what you're saying at the same time. Especially with these complex syntheses.

    How did the team manage to protect only the one of the two OH groups in the step with PivCl? Is this reaction selective or more favourable kinetic product at lower temperatures?

    • @totalsynthesis
      @totalsynthesis  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it's selective as the primary alcohol is more reactive than the secondary!

    I dropped out of school a single class before my graduation. I went for chemistry but I lost interest, i didn't understand the material or how anybody could learn so many arbitrary things and pretend that they deserve to pass the class. I had passed all of my classes with at least a 3.8, and I would have probably passed this but i just hated it. I like chemistry, but school is terrible. I did not struggle with analytical chemistry, only organic. Felt like everything was completely arbitrary and based off of how well I can memorize 100 things in a single week. Not my strong suit.

    • @totalsynthesis

      Shame to hear - memorization is definitely needed for initial classes but gets better later. Hope you still enjoy chemistry to some degree!

    Really excellent channel. I'm quite new here, but I look forward to delving more into the channel.
    I'm curious, where do you get information on things like the total sale of drugs like Taxol? I see this sort of information in papers occasionally, as a way to motivate interest in a particular compound, but I never really know where to begin looking for financial information on pharmaceutical agents that I myself am making. I hope you see this, thanks!

    What is the reason for the epimerization after treatment with the Ohira-Bestmann reagent? AFAIK, the Ohira-Bestmann reagent usually does not cause alpha epimerization, and I can't find an explanation in the paper.
    Edit: I think it is due to base catalyzed alpha epimerization of the aldehyde via keto-enol tautomerism. The potassium carbonate base used with the Ohira-Bestmann reagent is able to induce keto-enol tautomerism on the aldehyde, which leads to conversion to the less sterically strained epimer.
