Asymmetric [2+1] cycloaddition of difluoroalkyl-substituted carbenes with alkenes under rhodium catalysis: Synthesis of chiral difluoroalkyl-substituted cyclopropanes.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report a novel strategy for the synthesis of chiral difluoroalkyl-substituted cyclopropanes through enantioselective [2 + 1] cyclopropanation of alkenes and difluoroalkyl-substituted carbenes under rhodium catalysis, wherein the newly designed α, α-difluoro-β-carbonyl ketone N-triftosylhydrazones are used as the difluoroalkyl-substituted carbenes precursors. This approach represents the first asymmetric cyclopropanation of alkenes with difluoroalkyl carbenes, featuring high yield, high enantioselectivity, and broad substrate scope. Gram-scale synthesis and further interconversion of diverse functional groups demonstrate the usefulness of this protocol in the preparation of diverse functionalized chiral difluoroalkyl-substituted cyclopropanes.

Copper-Catalyzed Regio- and Enantioselective Hydroboration of Difluoroalkyl-Substituted Internal Alkenes.

Project description:Catalytic asymmetric hydroboration of fluoroalkyl-substituted alkenes is a straightforward approach to access chiral small molecules possessing both fluorine and boron atoms. However, enantioselective hydroboration of fluoroalkyl-substituted alkenes without fluorine elimination has been a long-standing challenge in this field. Herein, a copper-catalyzed hydroboration of difluoroalkyl-substituted internal alkenes with high levels of regio- and enantioselectivities is reported. The native carbonyl directing group, copper hydride system, and bisphosphine ligand play crucial roles in suppressing the undesired fluoride elimination. This atom-economic protocol provides a practical synthetic platform to obtain a wide scope of enantioenriched secondary boronates bearing the difluoromethylene moieties under mild conditions. Synthetic applications including functionalization of biorelevant molecules, versatile functional group interconversions, and preparation of difluoroalkylated Terfenadine derivative are also demonstrated.

Asymmetric Dearomative (3+2)-Cycloaddition Involving Nitro-Substituted Benzoheteroarenes under H-Bonding Catalysis.

Project description:In our studies, the organocatalytic 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between 2-nitrobenzofurans or 2-nitrobenzothiophene and N-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-substituted isatin imines has been developed. The reaction has been realized by employing bifunctional organocatalysis, with the use of squaramide derivative being crucial for the stereochemical efficiency of the process. The usefulness of the cycloadducts obtained has been confirmed in selected transformations, including aromative and non-aromative removal of the nitro group.

Asymmetric rhodium-catalyzed click cycloaddition to access C-N axially chiral <i>N</i>-triazolyl indoles.

Project description:The copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction is regarded as a prime example of "click chemistry", but the asymmetric click cycloaddition of internal alkynes still remains challenging. A new asymmetric Rh-catalyzed click cycloaddition of N-alkynylindoles with azides was developed, providing atroposelective access to C-N axially chiral triazolyl indoles, a new type of heterobiaryl, with excellent yields and enantioselectivity. This asymmetric approach is efficient, mild, robust and atom-economic, and features very broad substrate scope with easily available Tol-BINAP ligands.

Catalytic asymmetric C-H insertions of rhodium(II) azavinyl carbenes.

Project description:A highly efficient enantioselective C-H insertion of azavinyl carbenes into unactivated alkanes has been developed. These transition metal carbenes are directly generated from readily available and stable 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles in the presence of chiral Rh(II) carboxylates and are used for C-H functionalization of alkanes to access a variety of β-chiral sulfonamides.

Asymmetric Radical Process for General Synthesis of Chiral Heteroaryl Cyclopropanes.

Project description:A highly efficient catalytic method has been developed for asymmetric radical cyclopropanation of alkenes with in situ-generated α-heteroaryldiazomethanes via Co(II)-based metalloradical catalysis (MRC). Through fine-tuning the cavity-like environments of newly-synthesized D2-symmetric chiral amidoporphyrins as the supporting ligand, the optimized Co(II)-based metalloradical system is broadly applicable to α-pyridyl and other α-heteroaryldiazomethanes for asymmetric cyclopropanation of wide-ranging alkenes, including several types of challenging substrates. This new catalytic methodology provides a general access to valuable chiral heteroaryl cyclopropanes in high yields with excellent both diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities. Combined computational and experimental studies further support the underlying stepwise radical mechanism of the Co(II)-based olefin cyclopropanation involving α- and γ-metalloalkyl radicals as the key intermediates.

Asymmetric Carbohydroxylation of Alkenes Using Photoenzymatic Catalysis.

Project description:Alkene difunctionalizations enable the synthesis of structurally elaborated products from simple and ubiquitous starting materials in a single chemical step. Carbohydroxylations of olefins represent a family of reactivity that furnish structurally complex alcohols. While examples of this type of three-component coupling have been reported, catalytic asymmetric examples remain elusive. Here, we report an enzyme-catalyzed asymmetric carbohydroxylation of alkenes catalyzed by flavin-dependent "ene"-reductases to produce enantioenriched tertiary alcohols. Seven rounds of protein engineering reshape the enzyme's active site to increase activity and enantioselectivity. Mechanistic studies suggest that C-O bond formation occurs via a 5-endo-trig cyclization with the pendant ketone to afford an α-oxy radical which is oxidized and hydrolyzed to form the product. This work demonstrates photoenzymatic reactions involving "ene"-reductases can terminate radicals via mechanisms other than hydrogen atom transfer, expanding their utility in chemical synthesis.

Aggregation-Induced Catalysis: Asymmetric Catalysis with Chiral Aggregates.

Project description:So far, there have been 4 methods to control chirality including the use of chiral auxiliaries, reagents, solvents, and catalysts documented in literature and textbooks. Among them, asymmetric catalysts are normally divided into homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. In this report, we present a new type of asymmetric control-asymmetric catalysis via chiral aggregates that would not belong to the above categories. This new strategy is represented by catalytic asymmetric dihydroxylation reaction of olefins in which chiral ligands are aggregated by taking advantage of typical aggregation-induced emission systems containing tetrahydrofuran and H2O cosolvents. It was proven that the chiral induction can be enhanced from er of 78:22 to 97:3 simply by changing the ratios of these 2 cosolvents. The formation of chiral aggregates of asymmetric dihydroxylation ligands, (DHQD)2PHAL and (DHQ)2PHAL, has been proven by aggregation-induced emission and a new analytical tool-aggregation-induced polarization established by our laboratory. In the meanwhile, chiral aggregates were found to be formed either by adding NaCl into tetrahydrofuran/H2O systems or by increasing concentrations of chiral ligands. The present strategy also showed promising reverse control of enantioselectivity in the Diels-Alder reaction. This work is anticipated to be extended broadly to general catalysis, especially to asymmetric catalysis in the future.

Generation of rhodium(I) carbenes from ynamides and their reactions with alkynes and alkenes.

Project description:Rh(I) carbenes were conveniently generated from readily available ynamides. These metal carbene intermediates could undergo metathesis with electron-rich or neutral alkynes to afford 2-oxopyrrolidines or be trapped by tethered alkenes to yield 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes, a common skeleton in numerous bioactive pharmaceuticals. Although the scope of the former is limited, the latter reaction tolerates various substituted alkenes.

Atroposelective Synthesis of Axially Chiral N-Arylpyrroles by Chiral-at-Rhodium Catalysis.

Project description:A transformation of fluxional into configurationally stable axially chiral N-arylpyrroles was achieved with a highly atroposelective electrophilic aromatic substitution catalyzed by a chiral-at-metal rhodium Lewis acid. Specifically, N-arylpyrroles were alkylated with N-acryloyl-1H-pyrazole electrophiles in up to 93 % yield and with up to >99.5 % ee, and follow-up conversions reveal the synthetic utility of this new method. DFT calculations elucidate the origins of the observed excellent atroposelectivity.
