Isotope effects and mechanism of the asymmetric BOROX Bronsted acid catalyzed aziridination reaction.

ABSTRACT: The mechanism of the chiral VANOL-BOROX Brønsted acid catalyzed aziridination reaction of imines and ethyldiazoacetate has been studied using a combination of experimental kinetic isotope effects and theoretical calculations. A stepwise mechanism where reversible formation of a diazonium ion intermediate precedes rate-limiting ring closure to form the cis-aziridine is implicated. A revised model for the origin of enantio- and diastereoselectivity is proposed based on relative energies of the ring-closing transition structures.

Evidence for a boroxinate based Bronsted acid derivative of VAPOL as the active catalyst in the catalytic asymmetric aziridination reaction.

Project description:Studies are described that were designed to determine the structure of the active catalyst in the asymmetric catalytic aziridination of imines with ethyl diazoacetate (AZ reaction). Evidence suggests that the active catalyst contains a boroxine ring in which one of the three boron atoms is spiro-fused with the two phenol groups of the VAPOL ligand. (11)B and (1)H NMR evidence supports the boroxinate structure B in which the counterion to the boroxinate is the protonated form of the imine. The boroxinate structure is also supported by two solid state structures of a VAPOL boroxinate in which the gegen cation is tetramethyl ammonium and 4-dimethylaminopyridinium.

Synthesis of six-membered spirooxindoles <i>via</i> a chiral Bronsted acid-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction.

Project description:By means of the direct condensation of N-aminoethylpyrroles and isatins, followed by a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction, a new class of valuable chiral 3',4'-dihydro-2'H-spiro[indoline-3,1'-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin]-2-ones bearing a quaternary carbon stereocenter were successfully synthesized in good to excellent yields and with moderate to good enantioselectivities under mild reaction conditions.

Chiral Bronsted Acid-Catalyzed Asymmetric Synthesis of N-Aryl-cis-aziridine Carboxylate Esters.

Project description:We report a multi-component asymmetric Brønsted acid-catalyzed aza-Darzens reaction which is not limited to specific aromatic or heterocyclic aldehydes. Incorporating alkyl diazoacetates and, important for high ee's, ortho-tert-butoxyaniline our optimized reaction (i.e. solvent, temperature and catalyst study) affords excellent yields (61-98 %) and mostly >90 % optically active cis-aziridines. (+)-Chloramphenicol was generated in 4 steps from commercial starting materials. A tentative mechanism is outlined.

Bronsted-Acid-Catalyzed Intramolecular Carbonyl-Olefin Reactions: Interrupted Metathesis vs Carbonyl-Ene Reaction.

Project description:Lewis acid catalysts have been shown to promote carbonyl-olefin metathesis through a critical four-membered-ring oxetane intermediate. Recently, Brønsted-acid catalysis of related substrates was similarly proposed to result in a transient oxetane, which fragments within a single elementary step via a postulated oxygen-atom transfer mechanism. Herein, careful quantum chemical investigations show that Brønsted acid (triflic acid, TfOH) instead invokes a mechanistic switch to a carbonyl-ene reaction, and oxygen-atom transfer is uncompetitive. TfOH's conjugate base is also found to rearrange H atoms and allow isomerization of the carbocations that appear after the carbonyl-ene reaction. The mechanism explains available experimental information, including the skipped diene species that appear transiently before product formation. The present study clarifies the mechanism for activation of intramolecular carbonyl-olefin substrates by Brønsted acids and provides important insights that will help develop this exciting class of catalysts.

Chirality imprinting and direct asymmetric reaction screening using a stereodynamic Bronsted/Lewis acid receptor.

Project description:Molecular recognition, activation and dynamic self-assembly with Brønsted and Lewis acids play a central role across the chemical sciences including catalysis, crystal engineering, supramolecular architectures and drug design. Despite this general advance, the utilization of the corresponding binding motifs for fast and robust quantitative chemosensing of chiral compounds in a complicate matrix has remained challenging. Here we show that a stereodynamic probe carrying complementary boronic acid and urea units achieves this goal with hydroxy carboxylic acids. Synergistic dual-site binding and instantaneous chirality imprinting result in characteristic ultraviolet and CD readouts that allow instantaneous determination of the absolute configuration, enantiomeric excess and concentration of the target compound even in complex mixtures. The robustness and practicality of this strategy for high-throughput screening purposes is demonstrated. Comprehensive sensing of only 0.5 mg of a crude reaction mixture of an asymmetric reduction eliminates cumbersome work-up protocols and minimizes analysis time, labour and waste production.

Highly efficient Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of benzoxazinones and derivatives with a Bronsted acid cocatalyst.

Project description:The Ir-catalyzed highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of benzoxazinones and derivatives was successfully developed with N-methylated ZhaoPhos L5 as the ligand, which may display a new activation mode with a single anion-binding interaction among the substrate, cocatalyst Brønsted acid and ligand. This synthetic approach afforded a series of chiral dihydrobenzoxazinones and derivatives with excellent results (>99% conversion, 88-96% yields, 91->99% ee, up to 40 500 TON). A key to success is the utilization of a strong Brønsted acid as the cocatalyst, such as hydrochloric acid, to form a possible single anion-binding interaction with the substrate and catalyst, which greatly contributed to the improvement of reactivity and enantioselectivity. Importantly, a creative and efficient synthetic route was developed to construct the important intermediate for the potential IgE/IgG receptor modulator through our catalytic methodology system.

Davis-Beirut Reaction: A Photochemical Bronsted Acid Catalyzed Route to N-Aryl 2H-Indazoles.

Project description:The Davis-Beirut reaction provides access to 2H-indazoles from aromatic nitro compounds. However, N-aryl targets have been traditionally challenging to access due to competitive alternate reaction pathways. Previously, the key nitroso imine intermediate was generated under alkaline conditions, but as reported here, the photochemistry of o-nitrobenzyl alcohols empowered Brønsted acid catalyzed conditions for accessing N-aryl targets. Anilines and alkyl amines give different outcomes under optimized conditions; the proposed mechanism was studied using quantum chemical calculations.

Enantioselective synthesis of anti- and syn-homopropargyl alcohols via chiral Bronsted acid catalyzed asymmetric allenylboration reactions.

Project description:Chiral Brønsted acid catalyzed asymmetric allenylboration reactions are described. Under optimized conditions, anti-homopropargyl alcohols 2 are obtained in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities from stereochemically matched aldehyde allenylboration reactions with (M)-1 catalyzed by the chiral phosphoric acid (S)-4. The syn-isomers 3 can also be obtained in good diastereoselectivities and excellent enantioselectivities from the mismatched allenylboration reactions of aromatic aldehydes using (M)-1 in the presence of the enantiomeric phosphoric acid (R)-4. The stereochemistry of the methyl group introduced into 2 and 3 is controlled by the chirality of the allenylboronate (M)-1, whereas the configuration of the new hydroxyl stereocenter is controlled by the enantioselectivity of the chiral phosphoric acid catalyst used in these reactions. The synthetic utility of this methodology was further demonstrated in highly diastereoselective syntheses of a variety of anti, anti-stereotriads, the direct synthesis of which has constituted a significant challenge using previous generations of aldol and crotylmetal reagents.

A Bronsted Acid-Catalyzed Multicomponent Reaction for the Synthesis of Highly Functionalized γ-Lactam Derivatives.

Project description:Brønsted acids catalyze a multicomponent reaction of benzaldehyde with amines and diethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to afford highly functionalized γ-lactam derivatives. The reaction consists of a Mannich reaction of an enamine to an imine, both generated in situ, promoted by a phosphoric acid catalyst and a subsequent intramolecular cyclization. The hydrolysis of the cyclic enamine substrate can provide enol derivatives and, moreover, a second attack of the amine on the carboxylate can afford amide derivatives. An optimization of the reaction conditions is presented in order to obtain selectively cyclic enamines that can afford the enol species after selective hydrolysis.
