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.

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.

Phosphine-catalyzed enantioselective [3 + 2] cycloadditions of γ-substituted allenoates with β-perfluoroalkyl enones.

Project description:The enantioselective construction of densely functionalized cyclopentene bearing contiguous three stereocenters has been a challenging task in organic synthesis. Herein, we present a phoshine-catalyzed highly regio-, diastereo- and enantioselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition of γ-substituted allenoates with β-perfluoroalkyl enones, delivering a wide range of densely functionalized perfluoroalkylated cyclopentenes with three contiguous chiral stereocenters.

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.

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.

Enantioselective synthesis of γ-chiral amides via copper-catalyzed reductive relay hydroaminocarbonylation.

Project description:Chiral amides are common and effective structural motifs found in many pharmaceuticals and biologically active molecules. Despite their importance, existing synthetic methods are predominantly employed for the synthesis of α-amides and β-amides. The synthesis of remote chiral amides, characterized by distal stereocenters, typically requires intricate synthetic steps conducted under demanding conditions. Here, we present a general procedure for the copper-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of γ-chiral amides, employing a reductive relay hydroaminocarbonylation strategy with trisubstituted allylic benzoates and hydroxylamine electrophiles. This approach demonstrates a wide substrate scope with excellent enantioselectivity and regioselectivity, thus providing access to challenging enantioenriched γ-chiral amides.

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.

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.
