Enantioconvergent synthesis of (+)-aphanorphine via asymmetric Pd-catalyzed alkene carboamination.


ABSTRACT: A concise asymmetric synthesis of (+)-aphanorphine has been achieved via a new enantioconvergent strategy. A racemic ?-aminoalkene derivative is transformed into a 1:1 mixture of enantiomerically enriched diastereomers using an asymmetric Pd-catalyzed carboamination. This mixture is then converted to an enantiomerically enriched protected aphanorphine derivative by a Friedel-Crafts reaction, which generates a quaternary all-carbon stereocenter. The natural product is obtained in three additional steps.

A concise asymmetric synthesis of (+)-aphanorphine has been achieved via a new enantioconvergent strategy. A racemic γ-aminoalkene derivative is transformed into a 1:1 mixture of enantiomerically enriched diastereomers using an asymmetric Pd-catalyzed carboamination. This mixture is then converted to an enantiomerically enriched protected aphanorphine derivative by a Friedel-Crafts reaction, which generates a quaternary all-carbon stereocenter.
