A Chiral Thiourea as a Template for Enantioselective Intramolecular [2 + 2] Photocycloaddition Reactions.

ABSTRACT: A chiral (1R,2R)-diaminocyclohexane-derived bisthiourea was found to exhibit a significant asymmetric induction in the intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of 2,3-dihydropyridone-5-carboxylates. Under optimized conditions, the reaction was performed with visible light employing 10 mol % of thioxanthone as triplet sensitizer. Due to the different electronic properties of its carbonyl oxygen atoms, a directed binding of the substrate to the template is possible, which in turn enables an efficient enantioface differentiation.

Thiourea-catalyzed enantioselective iso-Pictet-Spengler reactions.

Project description:A one-pot condensation of isotryptamines and aldehydes that affords enantiomerically enriched 4-substituted tetrahydro-γ-carbolines is reported.

Arene Activation through Iminium Ions: Product Diversity from Intramolecular Photocycloaddition Reactions.

Project description:While 2-alk-ω-enyloxy-sustituted benzaldehydes do not display any photochemical reactivity at the arene core, the respective iminium perchlorates were found to undergo efficient reactions either upon direct irradiation (λ=366 nm) or under sensitizing conditions (λ=420 nm, 2.5 mol% thioxanthen-9-one). Three pathways were found: (a) Most commonly, the reaction led to benzoxacyclic products in which the olefin in the tether underwent a formal, yet unprecedented carboformylation (13 examples, 44-99 % yield). The cascade process occurred with high diastereoselectivity and was found to be stereoconvergent. (b) If a substituent resides in the 3-position of the benzene ring, a meta photocycloaddition was observed which produced tetracyclic skeletons with five stereogenic centers in excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity (2 examples, 58-79 % yield). (c) If the tether was internally substituted at the alkene, an arene photocycloaddition was avoided and an azetidine was formed in an aza Paternò-Büchi reaction (2 examples, 95-98 % yield).

Enantioselective [2 + 2] Photocycloaddition via Iminium Ions: Catalysis by a Sensitizing Chiral Bronsted Acid.

Project description:N,O-Acetals derived from α,β-unsaturated β-aryl substituted aldehydes and (1-aminocyclohexyl)methanol were found to undergo a catalytic enantioselective [2 + 2] photocycloaddition to a variety of olefins (19 examples, 54-96% yield, 84-98% ee). The reaction was performed by visible light irradiation (λ = 459 nm). A chiral phosphoric acid (10 mol %) with an (R)-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (binol) backbone served as the catalyst. The acid displays two thioxanthone groups attached to position 3 and 3' of the binol core via a meta-substituted phenyl linker. NMR studies confirmed the formation of an iminium ion which is attached to the acid counterion in a hydrogen-bond assisted ion pair. The catalytic activity of the acid rests on the presence of the thioxanthone moieties which enable a facile triplet energy transfer and an efficient enantioface differentiation.

Enantioselective Intermolecular [2 + 2] Photocycloaddition Reactions of 2(1H)-Quinolones Induced by Visible Light Irradiation.

Project description:In the presence of a chiral thioxanthone catalyst (10 mol %) the title compounds underwent a clean intermolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition with electron-deficient olefins at ? = 419 nm. The reactions not only proceeded with excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity but also delivered the respective cyclobutane products with significant enantiomeric excess (up to 95% ee). Key to the success of the reactions is a two-point hydrogen bonding between quinolone and catalyst enabling efficient energy transfer and high enantioface differentiation. Preliminary work indicated that solar irradiation can be used for this process and that the substrate scope can be further expanded to isoquinolones.

Enantioselective Thiolysis and Aminolysis of Cyclic Anhydrides Using a Chiral Diamine-Derived Thiourea Catalyst.

Project description:Catalytic desymmetrization of cyclic anhydrides has been widely investigated in the field of organocatalysis. Using this approach, many stereocenters can be established in a single, symmetry-breaking transformation. Herein, a thiourea organocatalyst was prepared in a single step from a chiral diamine, (R,R)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine, and used for the desymmetrization of various cyclic anhydrides through double hydrogen-bonding activation. The asymmetric ring-opening reaction of the cyclic anhydride proceeded via the enantioselective addition reaction catalyzed by diamine thiourea. Thiolysis afforded the desired products in the yields of 86-98% and enantioselectivities of 60-94%, while aminolysis afforded the yields of 90-94% and enantioselectivities of 90-95%.

Remote control of diastereoselectivity in intramolecular reactions of chiral allylsilanes.

Project description:During investigations of cyclization reactions between chiral allylsilanes and N-acyliminium ions, it was discovered that a suitably positioned benzyloxy group on the allylsilane component caused a reversal in the diastereoselectivity of these reactions relative to that normally observed with alkyl-substituted allylsilanes. This effect was subsequently observed in two other reaction types. Investigations into this effect led to the proposal of product formation through thermodynamic control facilitated by neighboring group interactions with a transient cationic species. This hypothesis was experimentally supported by the isolation of an intermediate in the proposed mechanistic pathway.

Triplet Energy Transfer from Ruthenium Complexes to Chiral Eniminium Ions: Enantioselective Synthesis of Cyclobutanecarbaldehydes by [2+2] Photocycloaddition.

Project description:Chiral eniminium salts, prepared from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and a chiral proline derived secondary amine, underwent, upon irradiation with visible light, a ruthenium-catalyzed (2.5 mol %) intermolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition to olefins, which after hydrolysis led to chiral cyclobutanecarbaldehydes (17 examples, 49-74 % yield), with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Ru(bpz)3 (PF6 )2 was utilized as the ruthenium catalyst and laser flash photolysis studies show that the catalyst operates exclusively by triplet-energy transfer (sensitization). A catalytic system was devised with a chiral secondary amine co-catalyst. In the catalytic reactions, Ru(bpy)3 (PF6 )2 was employed, and laser flash photolysis experiments suggest it undergoes both electron and energy transfer. However, experimental evidence supports the hypothesis that energy transfer is the only productive quenching mechanism. Control experiments using Ir(ppy)3 showed no catalysis for the intermolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition of an eniminium ion.
