Enantioselective Carbon-Sulfur Bond Formation: ? Additions of Aryl Thiols to Allenoates Catalyzed by a Chiral Phosphepine.

ABSTRACT: An effective phosphine-catalyzed method has been developed for the enantioselective addition of aryl thiols to the ? position of allenoates, thereby furnishing ready access to aryl alkyl sulfides in very good ee. An array of mechanistic data are consistent with addition of the chiral phosphine to the allenoate being the turnover-limiting step of the catalytic cycle. The optimized reaction conditions, as well as the mechanistic observations, differ markedly from an earlier report on asymmetric additions of alkyl thiols to allenoates, which highlights the potential for divergent behavior between alkyl and aryl thiols when serving as nucleophiles.

Highly Enantioselective, Hydrogen-Bond-Donor Catalyzed Additions to Oxetanes.

Project description:A precisely designed chiral squaramide derivative is shown to promote the highly enantioselective addition of trimethylsilyl bromide (TMSBr) to a broad variety of 3-substituted and 3,3-disubstituted oxetanes. The reaction provides direct and general access to synthetically valuable 1,3-bromohydrin building blocks from easily accessed achiral precursors. The products are readily elaborated both by nucleophilic substitution and through transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The enantioselective catalytic oxetane ring opening was employed as part of a three-step, gram-scale synthesis of pretomanid, a recently approved medication for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Heavy-atom kinetic isotope effect (KIE) studies are consistent with enantiodetermining delivery of bromide from the H-bond-donor (HBD) catalyst to the activated oxetane. While the nucleophilicity of the bromide ion is expected to be attenuated by association to the HBD, overall rate acceleration is achieved by enhancement of Lewis acidity of the TMSBr reagent through anion abstraction.

Enantioselective thiourea-catalyzed additions to oxocarbenium ions.

Project description:Asymmetric, catalytic reactions of oxocarbenium ions are reported. Simple, chiral urea and thiourea derivatives are shown to catalyze the enantioselective substitution of silyl ketene acetals onto 1-chloroisochromans. A mechanism involving anion binding by the chiral catalyst to generate a reactive oxocarbenium ion is invoked. Catalysts bearing tertiary benzylic amide groups afforded highest enantioselectivities, with the optimal structure being derived from enantioenriched 2-arylpyrrolidine derivatives.

Calcium(ii)-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate additions of amines.

Project description:The direct enantioselective chiral calcium(ii)·phosphate complex (Ca[CPA]2)-catalyzed conjugate addition of unprotected alkyl amines to maleimides was developed. This mild catalytic system represents a significant advance towards the general convergent asymmetric amination of ?,?-unsaturated electrophiles, providing medicinally relevant chiral aminosuccinimide products in high yields and enantioselectivities. Furthermore, the catalyst can be reused directly from a previously chromatographed reaction and still maintain both high yield and selectivity.

Phosphine-catalyzed asymmetric additions of malonate esters to {gamma}-substituted allenoates and allenamides.

Project description:Because carbonyl groups are ubiquitous in organic chemistry, the ability to synthesize functionalized carbonyl compounds, particularly enantioselectively, is an important objective. We have developed a straightforward and versatile method for catalytic asymmetric carbon-carbon bond formation at the ?-position of carbonyl compounds, specifically, phosphine-catalyzed additions of malonate esters to ?-substituted allenoates and allenamides. Mechanistic studies have provided insight into the reaction pathway.

The first chiral diene-based metal-organic frameworks for highly enantioselective carbon-carbon bond formation reactions.

Project description:We have designed the first chiral diene-based metal-organic framework (MOF), E2-MOF, and postsynthetically metalated E2-MOF with Rh(i) complexes to afford highly active and enantioselective single-site solid catalysts for C-C bond formation reactions. Treatment of E2-MOF with [RhCl(C2H4)2]2 led to a highly enantioselective catalyst for 1,4-additions of arylboronic acids to ?,?-unsaturated ketones, whereas treatment of E2-MOF with Rh(acac)(C2H4)2 afforded a highly efficient catalyst for the asymmetric 1,2-additions of arylboronic acids to aldimines. Interestingly, E2-MOF·Rh(acac) showed higher activity and enantioselectivity than the homogeneous control catalyst, likely due to the formation of a true single-site catalyst in the MOF. E2-MOF·Rh(acac) was also successfully recycled and reused at least seven times without loss of yield and enantioselectivity.

Acid-Catalyzed Air-Oxidative Fragmentation of the Carbon-Carbon Bond in 2-Aryl-1-tetralones.

Project description:Catalytic auto-oxidation with air is a highly desirable method for green synthesis. Described here is a method for acid-catalyzed one step air-oxidative fragmentation of 2-aryl-1-tetralones to alkyl-2-(3-oxo-3-aryl) benzoates in the presence of alcohol. This method was then demonstrated using concise synthesis of a key intermediate of antiasthma drug Montelukast sodium. Moreover, the paradoxical nature of the reaction in which ester forms but only within a low concentration threshold of alcohol helps in understanding the mechanism of the reaction.

Efficient boron-copper additions to aryl-substituted alkenes promoted by NHC-based catalysts. enantioselective Cu-catalyzed hydroboration reactions.

Project description:A Cu-catalyzed method for efficient boron-copper addition processes involving acyclic and cyclic disubstituted aryl olefins are reported. Reactions are promoted with 0.5-5 mol % of a readily available N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex; the presence of MeOH promotes in situ protonation of the C-Cu bond and leads to efficient catalyst turnover, constituting a net Cu-catalyzed hydroboration process. Reactions proceed in >98:<2 site selectivity and furnish secondary organoborane isomers that complement those obtained through reactions of boron-hydride reagents or by Rh- or Ir-catalyzed hydroborations (benzylic secondary C-B bonds). Initial observations regarding processes catalyzed by chiral NHC complexes, delivering products in up to 99:1 enantiomeric ratio, are disclosed.

Enantioselective conjugate silyl additions to cyclic and acyclic unsaturated carbonyls catalyzed by Cu complexes of chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes.

Project description:An efficient Cu-catalyzed protocol for enantioselective addition of a dimethylphenylsilanyl group to a wide range of cyclic and acyclic unsaturated ketones, esters, acrylonitriles, and alpha,beta,gamma,delta-dienones is disclosed. Reactions are performed in the presence of 1-2 mol % of commercially available and inexpensive CuCl, a readily accessible monodentate imidazolinium salt, and commercially available (dimethylphenylsilyl)pinacolatoboron. Cu-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate additions proceed to completion within only 2 h to afford the desired silanes in 87-97% yield and 90:10-99:1 enantiomeric ratio (er). Use of a proton source (e.g., MeOH) is not required; accordingly, synthetically versatile alpha-silyl boron enolates can be obtained. The special utility of the present protocol, in comparison with the related catalytic enantioselective aldol and boronate conjugate additions, is discussed and illustrated through various functionalizations of the enantiomerically enriched beta-silylcarbonyls.

Phosphine-Catalyzed Doubly Stereoconvergent γ-Additions of Racemic Heterocycles to Racemic Allenoates: The Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of Protected α,α-Disubstituted α-Amino Acid Derivatives.

Project description:Methods have recently been developed for the phosphine-catalyzed asymmetric γ-addition of nucleophiles to readily available allenoates and alkynoates to generate useful α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds that bear a stereogenic center in either the γ or the δ position (but not both) with high stereoselectivity. The utility of this approach would be enhanced considerably if the stereochemistry at both termini of the new bond could be controlled effectively. In this report, we describe the achievement of this objective, specifically, that a chiral phosphepine can catalyze the stereoconvergent γ-addition of a racemic nucleophile to a racemic electrophile; through the choice of an appropriate heterocycle as the nucleophilic partner, this new method enables the synthesis of protected α,α-disubstituted α-amino acid derivatives in good yield, diastereoselectivity, and enantioselectivity.
