Remote control of diastereoselectivity in intramolecular reactions of chiral allylsilanes.

ABSTRACT: During investigations of cyclization reactions between chiral allylsilanes and N-acyliminium ions, it was discovered that a suitably positioned benzyloxy group on the allylsilane component caused a reversal in the diastereoselectivity of these reactions relative to that normally observed with alkyl-substituted allylsilanes. This effect was subsequently observed in two other reaction types. Investigations into this effect led to the proposal of product formation through thermodynamic control facilitated by neighboring group interactions with a transient cationic species. This hypothesis was experimentally supported by the isolation of an intermediate in the proposed mechanistic pathway.

A Chiral Thiourea as a Template for Enantioselective Intramolecular [2 + 2] Photocycloaddition Reactions.

Project description:A chiral (1R,2R)-diaminocyclohexane-derived bisthiourea was found to exhibit a significant asymmetric induction in the intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of 2,3-dihydropyridone-5-carboxylates. Under optimized conditions, the reaction was performed with visible light employing 10 mol % of thioxanthone as triplet sensitizer. Due to the different electronic properties of its carbonyl oxygen atoms, a directed binding of the substrate to the template is possible, which in turn enables an efficient enantioface differentiation.

Tether-directed synthesis of highly substituted oxasilacycles via an intramolecular allylation employing allylsilanes.

Project description:BackgroundUsing a silyl tether to unite an aldehyde electrophile and allylsilane nucleophile into a single molecule allows a subsequent Lewis-acid-mediated allylation to proceed in an intramolecular sense and therefore receive all the benefits associated with such processes. However, with the ability to cleave the tether post allylation, a product that is the result of a net intermolecular reaction can be obtained. In the present study, four diastereoisomeric beta-silyloxy-alpha-methyl aldehydes, which contain an allylsilane tethered through the beta-carbinol centre, have been prepared, in order to probe how the relative configuration of the two stereogenic centres affects the efficiency and selectivity of the intramolecular allylation.ResultsSyn-aldehydes, syn-4a and syn-4b, both react poorly, affording all four possible diastereoisomeric oxasilacycle products. In contrast, the anti aldehydes anti-4a and anti-4b react analogously to substrates that lack substitution at the alpha-site, affording only two of the four possible allylation products.ConclusionThe outcome of the reaction with anti-aldehydes is in accord with reaction proceeding through a chair-like transition state (T.S.). In these systems, the sense of 1,3-stereoinduction can be rationalised by the aldehyde electrophile adopting a pseudoaxial orientation, which will minimise dipole-dipole interactions in the T.S. The 1,4-stereoinduction in these substrates is modest and seems to be modulated by the R substituent in the starting material. In the case of the syn-substrates, cyclisation through a chair T.S. is unlikely as this would require the methyl substituent alpha to the reacting carbonyl group to adopt an unfavourable pseudoaxial position. It is therefore proposed that these substrates react through poorly-defined T.S.s and consequently exhibit essentially no stereoselectivity.

Long-range diastereoselectivity in Ugi reactions of 2-substituted dihydrobenzoxazepines.

Project description:The Ugi reaction of 2-substituted dihydrobenzoxazepines was found to proceed with unexpectedly good diastereoselectivitiy (diastereoisomeric ratios up to 9:1), despite the large distance between the pre-existing stereogenic centre and the newly generated one. This result represents the first good 1,4 asymmetric induction in an Ugi reaction as well as the first example of diastereoselective Ugi reaction of seven membered cyclic imines. It allows the diversity-oriented synthesis of various tetrahydro[f][1,4]benzoxazepines.

Integration of aerobic oxidation and intramolecular asymmetric aza-Friedel-Crafts reactions with a chiral bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst.

Project description:A new class of chiral bifunctional heterogeneous materials composed of Au/Pd nanoparticles and chiral phosphoric acids as active orthogonal catalysts was prepared by utilizing a facile pseudo-suspension co-polymerization method. It was found that this heterogeneous catalyst was capable of facilitating the sequential aerobic oxidation-asymmetric intramolecular aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction between benzyl alcohols and N-aminoethylpyrroles. Moreover, the designed chiral heterogeneous catalyst could be recovered and reused several times without significant loss of activity or enantioselectivity.

Phenolic Activation in Chiral Bronsted Acid-Catalyzed Intramolecular α-Amidoalkylation Reactions for the Synthesis of Fused Isoquinolines.

Project description:An organolithium addition-intramolecular α-amidoalkylation sequence on N-phenethylimides has been developed for the synthesis of fused tetrahydroisoquinoline systems using 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (binol)-derived Brønsted acids. This transformation is the first in which activated benzene derivatives are used as internal nucleophiles, instead of electron-rich heteroaromatics, generating a quaternary stereocenter. Phenolic substitution on the aromatic ring of the phenethylamino moiety and the use of binol-derived N-triflylphosphoramides as catalysts are determinants to achieve reasonable levels of enantioselection, that is, up to 75% enantiomeric excess, in the α-amidoalkylation step. The procedure is complementary to the intermolecular α-amidoalkylation process, as opposite enantiomers are formed, and to the Pictet-Spengler cyclization, which allows the formation of tertiary stereocenters.

Diastereoselectivity in Lewis-acid-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions: a DFT study.

Project description:The basis for diastereoselectivity in Lewis-acid-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions was studied using density functional theory. By exploring the conformations of the transition structures for the diastereodifferentiating step of seven different reactions, simple models were generated. The effects of varying the substituents on the enol carbon and the ?-carbon of the silyl enol ether from methyl to tert-butyl groups and the substituent on the aldehyde from methyl to phenyl groups were investigated by comparison of the transition structures for different reactions. Expanding on the previous qualitative models by Heathcock and Denmark, we found that while the pro-anti pathways take place via antiperiplanar transition structures, the pro-syn pathways prefer synclinal transition structures. The relative steric effects of the Lewis acid and trimethyl silyl groups and the influence of E/Z isomerism on the aldol transition state were investigated. By calculating 36 transition structures at the M06/6-311G*//B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory and employing the IEFPCM polarizable continuum model for solvation effects, this study expands the mechanistic knowledge and provides a model for understanding the diastereoselectivity in Lewis-acid-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol reactions.

Strategies for remote enantiocontrol in chiral gold(iii) complexes applied to catalytic enantioselective γ,δ-Diels-Alder reactions.

Project description:The use of chiral square planar gold(iii) complexes to access enantioenriched products has rarely been applied in asymmetric catalysis. In this context, we report a mechanistic and synthetic investigation into the use of N-heterocyclic (NHC) gold(iii) complexes in γ,δ-Diels-Alder reactions of 2,4-dienals with cyclopentadiene. The optimal catalyst bearing a unique 2-chloro-1-naphthyl substituent allowed efficient synthesis of functionally rich carbocycles in good yields, diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Transition state and multivariate linear regression (MLR) analysis of both catalyst and substrate trends using molecular descriptors derived from designer parameter acquisition platforms, reveals attractive non-covalent interactions (NCIs) to be key selectivity determinates. These analyses demonstrate that a putative π-π interaction between the substrate proximal double bond and the catalyst aromatic group is an essential feature for high enantioselectivity.

Homogeneous Sc(OTf)<sub>3</sub>-Catalyzed Direct Allylation Reactions of General Alcohols with Allylsilanes.

Project description:Homogeneous Sc(OTf)3 used in nitromethane showed excellent catalytic activity for the direct allylation reactions of general alcohols including benzylic, propargylic, allylic, and some aliphatic alcohols with allyltrimethylsilane under mild and neutral reaction conditions. Metal-free β-silyl-substituted carbocations are intermediates generated by the highly oxophilic Sc(OTf)3-assisted rapid removal of a hydroxyl group in alcohols, which is supported by the result that allylation of (R)-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-ol with allytrimethylsilanes using the Sc(OTf)3 catalyst combined with (R)- or (S)-[1,1'-binaphthalene]-2,2'-diol ligands gave only racemic 2-(pent-4-en-2-yl)naphthalene in quantitative yield. The present study resolves the argument about the uncertain catalytic activity of Sc(OTf)3.

Organocatalyzed Intramolecular Carbonyl-Ene Reactions.

Project description:An organocatalyzed intramolecular carbonyl-ene reaction was developed to produce carbocyclic and heterocyclic 5- and 6-membered rings from a citronellal-derived trifluoroketone and a variety of aldehydes. A phosphoramide derivative was found to promote the cyclization of the trifluoroketone, whereas a less acidic phosphoric acid proved to be a superior catalyst for the aldehyde substrates.

Intramolecular ene reaction of a chiral bicyclic lactam.

Project description:The preparation of bicylic lactam 2 is described, employing an acetoacetate-based synthesis of 1,4-ketoacid 3. The lactam 2 was shown to undergo a thermal ene reaction at 280-300 degrees C to afford tricycle 7. Reduction of the ene product followed by removal of the chiral auxiliary fragment provided the unusual lactam system 9 in highly enantioenriched form.
