Enantioselective C-H Olefination of ?-Hydroxy and ?-Amino Phenylacetic Acids by Kinetic Resolution.

ABSTRACT: Significant progress has been made in the past decade regarding the development of enantioselective C-H activation reactions by desymmetrization. However, the requirement for the presence of two chemically identical prochiral C-H bonds represents an inherent limitation in scope. Reported is the first example of kinetic resolution by a palladium(II)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H activation and C-C bond formation, thus significantly expanding the scope of enantioselective C-H activation reactions.

Peculiarities of promiscuous L-threonine transaldolases for enantioselective synthesis of β-hydroxy-α-amino acids.

Project description:The introduction of β-hydroxy-α-amino acids (βHAAs) into organic molecules has received considerable attention as these molecules have often found widespread applications in bioorganic chemistry, medicinal chemistry and biomaterial science. Despite innovation of asymmetric synthesis of βHAAs, stereoselective synthesis to control the two chiral centres at Cα and Cβ positions is still challenging, with poor atomic economy and multi protection and deprotection steps. These syntheses are often operated under harsh conditions. Therefore, a biotransformation approach using biocatalysts is needed to selectively introduce these two chiral centres into structurally diverse molecules. Yet, there are few ways that enable one-step synthesis of βHAAs. One is to extend the substrate scope of the existing enzyme inventory. Threonine aldolases have been explored to produce βHAAs. However, the enzymes have poor controlled installation at Cβ position, often resulting in a mixture of diastereoisomers which are difficult to be separated. In this respect, L-threonine transaldolases (LTTAs) offer an excellent potential as the enzymes often provide controlled stereochemistry at Cα and Cβ positions. Another is to mine LTTA homologues and engineer the enzymes using directed evolution with the aim of finding engineered biocatalysts to accept broad substrates with enhanced conversion and stereoselectivity. Here, we review the development of LTTAs that incorporate various aldehyde acceptors to generate structurally diverse βHAAs and highlight areas for future developments. KEY POINTS: • The general mechanism of the transaldolation reaction catalysed by LTTAs • Recent advances in LTTAs from different biosynthetic pathways • Applications of LTTAs as biocatalysts for production of βHAAs.

Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Thiocarboxylic Acids by Nitrilase Biocatalysed Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of α-Thionitriles.

Project description:The enantioselective synthesis of α-thiocarboxylic acids by biocatalytic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of nitrile precursors exploiting nitrilase enzymes is described. A panel of 35 nitrilase biocatalysts were screened and enzymes Nit27 and Nit34 were found to catalyse the DKR of racemic α-thionitriles under mild conditions, affording the corresponding carboxylic acids with high conversions and good-to-excellent ee. The ammonia produced in situ during the biocatalytic transformation favours the racemization of the nitrile enantiomers and, in turn, the DKR without the need of any external additive base.

Asymmetric synthesis of anti-β-amino-α-hydroxy esters via dynamic kinetic resolution of β-amino-α-keto esters.

Project description:A method for the asymmetric synthesis of enantioenriched anti-α-hydroxy-β-amino acid derivatives by enantioconvergent reduction of the corresponding racemic α-keto esters is presented. The requisite α-keto esters are prepared via Mannich addition of ethyl diazoacetate to imines followed by oxidation of the diazo group with Oxone. Implementation of a recently developed dynamic kinetic resolution of β-substituted-α-keto esters via Ru(II)-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation provides the title motif in routinely high diastereo- and enantioselectivity.

Stereoselective Synthesis of β-Branched Aromatic α-Amino Acids by Biocatalytic Dynamic Kinetic Resolution*.

Project description:β-Branched noncanonical amino acids are valuable molecules in modern drug development efforts. However, they are still challenging to prepare due to the need to set multiple stereocenters in a stereoselective fashion, and contemporary methods for the synthesis of such compounds often rely on the use of rare-transition-metal catalysts with designer ligands. Herein, we report a highly diastereo- and enantioselective biocatalytic transamination method to prepare a broad range of aromatic β-branched α-amino acids. Mechanistic studies show that the transformation proceeds through dynamic kinetic resolution that is unique to the optimal enzyme. To highlight its utility and practicality, the biocatalytic reaction was applied to the synthesis of several sp3 -rich cyclic fragments and the first total synthesis of jomthonic acid A.

Kinetic Resolution of Racemic Mixtures via Enantioselective Photocatalysis.

Project description:Despite the increasing demand for enantiopure drugs in the pharmaceutical industry, currently available chiral separation technologies are still lagging behind, whether due to throughput or to operability considerations. This paper presents a new kinetic resolution method, based on the specific adsorption of a target enantiomer onto a molecularly imprinted surface of a photocatalyst and its subsequent degradation through a photocatalytic mechanism. The current model system is composed of an active TiO2 layer, on which the target enantiomer is adsorbed. A photocatalytic suppression layer of Al2O3 is then grown around the adsorbed target molecules by atomic layer deposition. Following the removal of the templating molecules, molecularly imprinted cavities that correspond to the adsorbed species are formed. The stereospecific nature of these pores encourages enantioselective degradation of the undesired species through its enhanced adsorption on the photocatalyst surface, while dampening nonselective photocatalytic activity around the imprinted sites. The method, demonstrated with the dipeptide leucylglycine as a model system, revealed a selectivity factor of up to 7 and an enrichment of a single enantiomer to 85% from an initially racemic mixture. The wide range of parameters that can be optimized (photocatalyst, concentration of imprinted sites, type of passivating layer, etc.) points to the great potential of this method for obtaining enantiomerically pure compounds, beginning from racemic mixtures.

Isothiourea-Catalyzed Acylative Kinetic Resolution of Tertiary ?-Hydroxy Esters.

Project description:A highly enantioselective isothiourea-catalyzed acylative kinetic resolution (KR) of acyclic tertiary alcohols has been developed. Selectivity factors of up to 200 were achieved for the KR of tertiary alcohols bearing an adjacent ester substituent, with both reaction conversion and enantioselectivity found to be sensitive to the steric and electronic environment at the stereogenic tertiary carbinol centre. For more sterically congested alcohols, the use of a recently-developed isoselenourea catalyst was optimal, with equivalent enantioselectivity but higher conversion achieved in comparison to the isothiourea HyperBTM. Diastereomeric acylation transition state models are proposed to rationalize the origins of enantiodiscrimination in this process. This KR procedure was also translated to a continuous-flow process using a polymer-supported variant of the catalyst.

Room-temperature enantioselective C-H iodination via kinetic resolution.

Project description:Asymmetric carbon-hydrogen (C-H) activation reactions often rely on desymmetrization of prochiral C-H bonds on the same achiral molecule, using a chiral catalyst. Here, we report a kinetic resolution via palladium-catalyzed enantioselective C-H iodination in which one of the enantiomers of a racemic benzylic amine substrates undergoes faster aryl C-H insertion with the chiral catalysts than the other. The resulting enantioenriched C-H functionalization products would not be accessible through desymmetrization of prochiral C-H bonds. The exceedingly high relative rate ratio (k(fast)/k(slow) up to 244), coupled with the subsequent iodination of the remaining enantiomerically enriched starting material using a chiral ligand with the opposite configuration, enables conversion of both substrate enantiomers into enantiomerically pure iodinated products.

Ligand-enabled ortho-C-H olefination of phenylacetic amides with unactivated alkenes.

Project description:Although chelation-assisted C-H olefination has been intensely investigated, Pd(ii)-catalyzed C-H olefination reactions are largely restricted to acrylates and styrenes. Here we report a quinoline-derived ligand that enables the Pd(ii)-catalyzed olefination of the C(sp2)-H bond with simple aliphatic alkenes using a weakly coordinating monodentate amide auxiliary. Oxygen is used as the terminal oxidant with catalytic copper as the co-oxidant. A variety of functional groups in the aliphatic alkenes are tolerated. Upon hydrogenation, the ortho-alkylated product can be accessed. The utility of this reaction is also demonstrated by the late-stage diversification of drug molecules.

Kinetic Resolution of β-Alkyl Phenylethylamine Derivatives through Palladium-Catalyzed, Nosylamide-Directed C-H Olefination.

Project description:Palladium-catalyzed C-H activation reactions have attracted the attention of organic researchers due to their unique high selectivity, broad functional group tolerance, and high efficiency, and they are widely used in natural products and asymmetric synthesis. Here, we report an example of enantioselective C-H alkenylation between β-alkyl phenylethylamine compounds and styrenes with Boc-L-lle-OH as the ligand and nosylamide as the directing group. This reaction is applicable to styrene containing various electron-deficient and electron-donating substitutions and may be utilized for the synthesis of benzoazepine compounds.
