Access to chiral pyridine derivatives via catalytic asymmetric synthesis

Objective

Pyridine and its derivatives are abundant structural motives in nature and widely used in medicinal chemistry. In this research program we propose to develop catalytic enantioselective methods for the synthesis of chiral pyridines with tertiary and quaternary stereocenters through the catalytic addition of readily available and highly reactive organometallics to conjugated alkenyl pyridines. Furthermore, the proposed methodology will be used for the generation of contiguous stereocenters via sequential conjugate addition/Mg-aza-enolate trapping strategies. The synthesis of this kind of chiral compounds will permit further functionalization of pyridine products through the partial or total hydrogenation reactions of aromatic pyridine rings, or the introduction of different electrophiles in various positions of the aromatic ring.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

MSCA-IF-EF-ST - Standard EF

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
