We present the synthesis and analytical, spectroscopic and computational characterization of three amino-substituted benzo[b]thieno[2,3-b]pyrido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles as novel pH probes with a potential application in pH-sensing materials. The designed systems differ in the number and position of the introduced isobutylamine groups on the pentacyclic aromatic core, which affects their photophysical and acid-base properties. The latter were investigated by UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies and interpreted by DFT calculations. An excellent agreement in experimentally measured and computationally determined pKa values and electronic excitations suggests that all systems are unionized at neutral pH, while their transition to monocationic forms occurs at pH values between 3 and 5, accompanied by substantial changes in spectroscopic responses that make them suitable for detecting acidic conditions in solutions. Computations identified imidazole imino nitrogen as the most favorable protonation site, further confirmed by analysis of perturbations in the chemical shifts of 1H and 13C NMR, and showed that the resulting basicity emerges as a compromise between the basicity-reducing effect of a nearby nitrile and a favorable contribution from the attached secondary amines. With this in mind, we designed a system with three amino substituents for which calculations predict pKa = 7.0 that we suggest as an excellent starting point for a potential pH sensor able to capture solution changes during the transition from neutral towards acidic media.

Cyclopropyldiphenylsulfonium salt is a famous ylide precursor that was previously extensively employed in the preparation of cyclic compounds and has been successfully utilized as an efficient allylation reagent in this work. The Cu-catalyzed reactions of cyclopropyldiphenylsulfonium trifluoromethanesulfonate with amines in the presence of an appropriate ligand provided the N-allylated products in good yields. Aliphatic/aromatic amines and primary/secondary amines were all mildly converted under the reaction conditions. This protocol was also applicable to N-functionalization of drug molecules, supplying the corresponding N-allylated compounds in satisfactory yields. The reaction showed good functional group tolerance, a wide range of substrates, and excellent chemoselectivity, which offered an interesting method for the synthesis of N-allyl amines.

Sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) click chemistry provides a powerful tool for rapid construction of modular connections. Here, we report a novel catalytic silicon-free SuFEx reaction with sulfonyl fluorides. Under the catalysis of 10 mol% N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), a range of phenols and alcohols react with different sulfonyl fluorides to afford sulfonate esters in 49-99% yields. In addition, Under the relay catalysis of 10 mol% N-heterocyclic carbene and 10 mol% 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt), a variety of primary and secondary amines react with different sulfonyl fluorides to produce sulfonamides in 58%-99% yields. More than 140 sulfonylated products, including 17 natural product derivatives have been prepared through this method. Mechanism study showed that NHCs might act as a carbon-centered Brønsted base to catalyse the SuFEx click reactions via the formation of hydrogen bonding with phenols or alcohols.

Reductive aminases (RedAms) for the stereoselective amination of ketones represent an environmentally benign and economically viable alternative to transition metal–catalyzed asymmetric chemical synthesis. Here, we report two RedAms from Aspergillus calidoustus (AcRedAm) and bacteria (BaRedAm) with NADPH-dependent features. The enzymes can synthesize a set of secondary amines using a broad range of ketone and amine substrates with up to 97% conversion. To synthesize the pharmaceutical ingredient (R)-rasagiline, we engineered AcRedAm through rational design to obtain highly stereoselective mutants. The best mutant Q237A from AcRedAm could synthesize (R)-rasagiline with >99% enantiomeric excess with moderate conversion. The features of AcRedAm and BaRedAm highlight their potential for further study and expand the biocatalytic toolbox for industrial applications.
