Synthesis of quaternary carbon centers via hydroformylation.

ABSTRACT: The application of hydroformylation to the synthesis of quaternary carbon centers is reported. The synthesis of the highly substituted carbon is achieved by applying a catalytic amount of 1. Ligand 1 serves as a catalytic directing group by covalently and reversibly binding to both the substrate and catalyst. The intramolecular nature of the directing group strategy accelerates the hydroformylation reaction such that the reaction is performed at mild temperatures (35-55 degrees C) and with excellent regioselectivity (b:l > 94:6).

All-carbon quaternary centers via ruthenium-catalyzed hydroxymethylation of 2-substituted butadienes mediated by formaldehyde: beyond hydroformylation.

Project description:Ruthenium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of 2-substituted dienes 1a-i in the presence of paraformaldehyde results in reductive coupling at the 2-position to furnish the hydroxymethylation products 3a-i, which embody all-carbon quaternary centers. Reductive coupling of diene 1g to paraformaldehyde under standard conditions, but employing deuterio-paraformaldehyde, 2-propanol-d(8), or both, corroborated a catalytic mechanism involving rapid, reversible diene hydrometalation with incomplete regioselectivity in advance of C-C coupling. The present method provides an alternative to the hydroformylation of conjugated dienes, for which efficient, regioselective catalytic systems remain undeveloped.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Vicinal All-Carbon Quaternary Centers via Iridium-Catalyzed Allylic Alkylation.

Project description:The development of the first enantioselective transition-metal-catalyzed allylic alkylation providing access to acyclic products bearing vicinal all-carbon quaternary centers is disclosed. The iridium-catalyzed allylic alkylation reaction proceeds with excellent yields and selectivities for a range of malononitrile-derived nucleophiles and trisubstituted allylic electrophiles. The utility of these sterically congested products is explored through a series of diverse chemo- and diastereoselective product transformations to afford a number of highly valuable, densely functionalized building blocks, including those containing vicinal all-carbon quaternary stereocenters.

Synthesis of Vicinal Quaternary All-Carbon Centers via Acid-catalyzed Cycloisomerization of Neopentylic Epoxides.

Project description:We report our studies on the development of a catalytic cycloisomerization of 2,2-disubstituted neopentylic epoxides to produce highly substituted tetralins and chromanes. Termination of the sequence occurs via Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation of the remote (hetero)arene linker. The transformation is efficiently promoted by sulfuric acid and proceeds best in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) as the solvent. Variation of the substitution pattern provided detailed insights into the migration tendencies and revealed a competing disproportionation pathway of dihydronaphthalenes.

Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of Homoallylic Amines Bearing Quaternary Carbon Centers.

Project description:A Cu-catalyzed method for the efficient enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of chiral homoallylic amines bearing a quaternary carbon and an alkenylboron is disclosed. Transformations are promoted by a readily prepared (phosphoramidite)-Cu complex and involve bench-stable γ,γ-disubstituted allyldiborons and benzyl imines; products are obtained in up to 82% yield, >20:1 dr, and >99:1 er. Reactions proceed via stereodefined boron-stabilized allylic Cu species formed by an enantioselective transmetalation. Utility of the 1-amino-3-alkenylboronate products is highlighted by a variety of synthetic transformations.

Enantioselective synthesis of decalin structures with all-carbon quaternary centers via one-pot sequential Cope/Rauhut-Currier reaction.

Project description:The first example of one-pot sequential Cope/Rauhut-Currier reactions are reported and used to make functionalized decalin structures with all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. The substrates for the new sequential reaction are generated through a six-step sequence including an enantioselective Birch reduction-allylation reaction which makes the overall process asymmetric.

Protecting-group-free synthesis of 3-tert-prenylated oxindoles: contiguous all-carbon quaternary centers via tertiary neopentyl substitution.

Project description:Ruthenium-catalyzed tert-prenylation of isatin 1 occurs efficiently in the absence of N-protecting groups under the conditions of C-C bond-forming transfer hydrogenation employing 1,1-dimethylallene as the prenyl donor. The prenylated adduct, 3-hydroxy-3-tert-prenyl-oxindole 2, is converted to the tertiary neopentyl chloride 3, which participates in nucleophilic substitution by way of an aza-o-xylylene intermediate to furnish adducts 4a-4i. Through tertiary neopentyl substitution, two contiguous all-carbon quaternary centers are established.

Stereocontrolled alkylative construction of quaternary carbon centers.

Project description:Protocols for the stereodefined formation of alpha,alpha-disubstituted enolates of pseudoephedrine amides are presented followed by the implementation of these in diastereoselective alkylation reactions. Direct alkylation of alpha,alpha-disubstituted pseudoephedrine amide substrates is demonstrated to be both efficient and diastereoselective across a range of substrates, as exemplified by alkylation of the diastereomeric pseudoephedrine alpha-methylbutyramides, where both substrates are found to undergo stereospecific replacement of the alpha-C-H bond with alpha-C-alkyl, with retention of stereochemistry. This is shown to arise by sequential stereospecific enolization and alkylation reactions, with the alkyl halide attacking a common pi-face of the E- and Z-enolates, proposed to be opposite the pseudoephedrine alkoxide side chain. Pseudoephedrine alpha-phenylbutyramides are found to undergo highly stereoselective but not stereospecific alpha-alkylation reactions, which evidence suggests is due to facile enolate isomerization. Also, we show that alpha,alpha-disubstituted pseudoephedrine amide enolates can be generated in a highly stereocontrolled fashion by conjugate addition of an alkyllithium reagent to the s-cis-conformer of an alpha-alkyl-alpha,beta-unsaturated pseudoephedrine amide, providing alpha,alpha-disubstituted enolate substrates that undergo alkylation in the same sense as those formed by direct deprotonation. Methods are presented to transform the alpha-quaternary pseudoephedrine amide products into optically active carboxylic acids, ketones, primary alcohols, and aldehydes.

Synthesis of aza-quaternary centers <i>via</i> Pictet-Spengler reactions of ketonitrones.

Project description:Despite the array of advances that have been made in Pictet-Spengler chemistry, particularly as it relates to the synthesis of β-carboline derivatives of both natural and designed origin, the ability to use such reactions to generate aza-quaternary centers remains limited. Herein, we report a simple procedure that enables the synthesis of a variety of such products by harnessing the distinct reactivity profiles of ketonitrones as activated by commercially available acyl chlorides. Notably, the reaction process is mild, fast, and high-yielding (54-97%) for a diverse collection of substrates, including some typically challenging ones, such as indole cores with electron-deficient substituents. In addition, by deploying an acyl bromide in combination with a thiourea promoter, a catalytic, asymmetric version has been established, leading to good levels of enantioselectivity (up to 83% ee) for several ketonitrones. Finally, the resultant N-O bonds within the products can also be functionalized in several unique ways, affording valuable complementarity to existing Pictet-Spengler variants based on the use of imines.

Synthesis of quaternary carbon stereogenic centers through enantioselective Cu-catalyzed allylic substitutions with vinylaluminum reagents.

Project description:Catalytic enantioselective allylic substitution (EAS) reactions, which involve the use of alkyl- or aryl-substituted vinylaluminum reagents and afford 1,4-dienes containing a quaternary carbon stereogenic center at their C-3 site, are disclosed. The C-C bond-forming transformations are promoted by 0.5-2.5 mol % of sulfonate bearing chiral bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes, furnishing the desired products efficiently (66-97% yield of isolated products) and in high site (>98% S(N)2')- and enantioselectivity [up to 99:1 enantiomer ratio (er)]. To the best of our knowledge, the present report puts forward the first cases of allylic substitution reactions that result in the generation of all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers through the addition of a vinyl unit. The aryl- and vinyl-substituted vinylaluminum reagents, which cannot be prepared in high efficiency through direct reaction with diisobutylaluminum hydride, are accessed through a recently introduced Ni-catalyzed reaction of the corresponding terminal alkynes with the same inexpensive metal-hydride agent. Sequential Ni-catalyzed hydrometalations and Cu-catalyzed C-C bond-forming reactions allow for efficient and selective synthesis of a range of enantiomerically enriched EAS products, which cannot be accessed by previously disclosed strategies (due to inefficient vinylmetal synthesis or low reactivity and/or selectivity with Si-substituted derivatives). The utility of the protocols developed is demonstrated through a concise enantioselective synthesis of natural product bakuchiol.

Ethylene in organic synthesis: a new route to anticholenergic pyrrolidinoindolines, and other molecules with all carbon-quaternary centers via asymmetric hydrovinylation.

Project description:The asymmetric hydrovinylation (1 mol % Ni-cat., 1 atm, ethylene, >98% ee) products from 1-methylenetetralines are readily converted into 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles and subsequently to pyrrolidinoindolines. These hydrovinylation products are also useful for the syntheses of enantiopure benzomorphans.
