Enantioselective allylation of dienals and their application in tiacumicin synthesis
Koukal, Petr ; Kotora, Martin (advisor) ; Cibulka, Radek (referee) ; Pour, Milan (referee)
The current methodologies of catalytic enantioselective allylation of aldehydes were studied on conjugated dienals and later on haloacrylaldehydes as the substrates. The resulting enantioenriched homoallylalcohols were prepared by reactions promoted either by commercial Brønsted acid catalysts or by Lewis base catalysts developed by our group, often with high enantio- and diastereoselectivities. Subsequently, the methodology was expanded on catalytic enantioselective crotylation and pentenylation reactions, practically unknown not only with these substrates. The applicability of this synthetic approach was demonstrated on preparation of several natural products or their intermediates.

Application of enantioselective allylation for synthesis of compounds isolated from Streptomyces gramineus
Morávková, Terézia ; Kotora, Martin (advisor) ; Matoušová, Eliška (referee)
E-492, actinofuranone A, and JBIR-108 are natural compounds isolated from actinobacteria Streptomyces genus and can lead to the development of new pharmaceuticals as they have some biological interesting activities. Although the synthesis of these actinofuranones has been already published, this work brings new methods for the preparation of their fragments. The key step of the synthesis is enantioselective crotylboration of an aldehyde catalyzed by a chiral Brønsted acid and by which two centres of chirality are introduced in one step. The other crucial steps of the synthesis are composed of Ru-catalyzed alkene-alkene cross-metathesis and Pd- catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling. Keywords: natural compound, enantioselective syntheses, crotylation, catalysis, actinofuranone fragment

Preparation of biologically active compounds using organocatalysis
Šimek, Michal ; Veselý, Jan (advisor) ; Kočovský, Pavel (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the use of organocatalysis in an asymmetric allylic substitution reaction of Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates by aniline derivatives leading to enantiomerically enriched allylic amines. The first part of the thesis is focused on optimizing the reaction conditions in the organocatalytic reaction with respect to the yields and enantiomeric excesses of the products. In the second part of the thesis prepared enantiomerically enriched allylic amines are used in the cyclization step to give β-lactame cycles that serve as the key intermediates in the total synthesis of Ezetimib as is demonstrated in the final part of the diploma thesis.
