Enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed annulation reactions with imidazolidinones.

ABSTRACT: Add acetic acid: A highly stereoselective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed formal [4+2] annulation between ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes and imidazolidinones for the synthesis of imidazoles has been developed. Acetic acid serves as a key additive to achieve high chemoselectivity for the formal [4+2]?annulation product.

N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed enantioselective Mannich reactions with alpha-aryloxyacetaldehydes.

Project description:N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) catalyze a new Mannich-type reaction to form beta-amino acid derivatives in high yield and enantioselectivity. The reaction is initiated by the addition of an NHC to an alpha-aryloxyaldehyde followed by elimination of a phenoxide anion which generates an enol/enolate. A Mannich addition to a tosylimine proceeds with excellent control over enantioselectivity. In a new carbene catalysis concept, catalyst regeneration is promoted by return, or rebound, and acylation of the phenoxide group which served as the activating component in the first step of the catalytic cycle. The activated ester products formed in situ are manipulated to form a variety of useful compounds including beta-amino acids, beta-amino amides, and peptides.

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Enantioselective Annulation of Benzothiazolyl Ethyl Acetates with 2-Bromoenals.

Project description:An N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed enantioselective [3+3] annulation of benzothiazolyl acetates with 2-bromoenals has been developed. The protocol provides a direct asymmetric synthesis of dihydro-1H-benzothiazolopyridinones in good to very good yields and medium ee values. In many cases, the virtually enantiopure heterocycles are available through a single recrystallization (99% ee).

Regio- and Enantioselective <i>N</i>-Heterocyclic Carbene-Catalyzed Annulation of Aminoindoles Initiated by Friedel-Crafts Alkylation.

Project description:Chiral indoles annulated on the benzene ring are unique and significant in natural and medicinal compounds. However, accessing these enantioenriched molecules has often been overlooked. The present study introduces an organocatalytic protocol to access these compounds efficiently, demonstrated by substrate scope, functional group tolerance, and using only 1 mol % of a chiral conjugated acid catalyst. Additionally, the study explores regioselectivity, gram-scale reactions, and follow-up transformations, underscoring the method's potential.

Enantioselective [3+3] atroposelective annulation catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes.

Project description:Axially chiral molecules are among the most valuable substrates in organic synthesis. They are typically used as chiral ligands or catalysts in asymmetric reactions. Recent progress for the construction of these chiral molecules is mainly focused on the transition-metal-catalyzed transformations. Here, we report the enantioselective NHC-catalyzed (NHC: N-heterocyclic carbenes) atroposelective annulation of cyclic 1,3-diones with ynals. In the presence of NHC precatalyst, base, Lewis acid and oxidant, a catalytic C-C bond formation occurs, providing axially chiral ?-pyrone-aryls in moderate to good yields and with high enantioselectivities. Control experiments indicated that alkynyl acyl azoliums, acting as active intermediates, are employed to atroposelectively assemble chiral biaryls and such a methodology may be creatively applied to other useful NHC-catalyzed asymmetric transformations.

A tandem dearomatization/rearomatization strategy: enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed α-arylation.

Project description:In this study, the first example of the carbene-catalyzed tandem dearomatization/rearomatization reaction of azonaphthalenes with α-chloroaldehydes is described. This protocol enables the efficient assembly of chiral dihydrocinnolinone derivatives in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Moreover, this strategy enables not only the highly enantioselective NHC-catalyzed nucleophilic aromatic substitution, but also a formal Csp2-Csp3 bond formation.

Project description:Diastereo- and enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed 1-azadiene Diels-Alder reactions of (E)-2-styrylbenzothiazoles with ?-chloro aldehydes are reported. This annulation strategy provides an efficient access to medicinally important dihydrobenzothiazolopyridin-1-ones in good to excellent yields (44-97%) with very good to excellent stereoselectivities (up to 9:1 dr, 98% ee) and tolerates quite a range of substituents.

Chiral N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed generation of ester enolate equivalents from {alpha},{beta}-unsaturated aldehydes for enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions.

Project description:The catalytic generation of chiral ester enolate equivalents from ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes with chiral N-hetereocyclic carbene catalysts makes possible highly enantioselective hetero-Diels-Alder reactions. The reactions proceed under simple, mild conditions with both aliphatic and aromatic substituted enals as substrates. Previous attempts to employ these starting materials as enolate precursors gave structurally different products via catalytically generated homoenolate equivalents. Critical to the success of the enolate generation was the strength of the catalytic base used to generate the active N-heterocyclic carbene catalyst. To complement these studies, we have investigated the enolate structure using computational methods and find that it prefers conformations perpendicular to the triazolium core.

Cooperative N-heterocyclic carbene/Lewis acid catalysis for highly stereoselective annulation reactions with homoenolates.

Project description:A new approach that takes advantage of N-heterocyclic carbene/Lewis acid cooperative catalysis provides access to cis-1,3,4-trisubstituted cyclopentenes from enals and chalcone derivatives with high levels of diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity. The presence of Ti(OiPr)(4) as the Lewis acid allows for efficient substrate preorganization, which translates into high levels of diastereoselectivity. Additionally, we demonstrate the possibility of controlling the absolute stereochemistry of NHC-catalyzed reactions by employing a catalytic amount of a chiral Lewis acid as the unique source of optically active promoter.
