Stereospecific Cross Couplings To Set Benzylic, All-Carbon Quaternary Stereocenters in High Enantiopurity.

ABSTRACT: Asymmetric preparation of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters is an important goal. Despite advances in formation of highly enantioenriched products with quaternary stereocenters proximal to a functional group, methods to install quaternary stereocenters isolated from functional groups are limited. Transition metal catalysis offers a potential solution, but prior cross couplings are limited to allylic substrates or deliver little to no enantiomeric enrichment. We report a stereospecific, nickel-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura arylation of tertiary benzylic acetates to deliver products with diaryl and triaryl quaternary stereocenters in high yields and ee's. This reaction employs an inexpensive, air-stable Ni(II) salt and commercially available phosphine ligand to transform tertiary alcohol derivatives, which are easily available in exceptional ee, into valuable products with stereoretention.

Stereospecific Construction of Quaternary Carbon Stereocenters from Quaternary Carbon Stereocenters.

Project description:Organoaluminum species promote a smooth nucleophilic substitution at the quaternary carbon stereocenter of stereodefined polysubstituted cyclopropyl methyl phosphate with a complete inversion of configuration, even when more reactive functional groups are present. The regio- and diastereoselectivity of the substitution is attributed to the existence of a bicyclobutonium intermediate.

A general approach to stereospecific Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of benzylic stereocenters.

Project description:We have developed a general process for the formation of enantioenriched benzylic stereocenters via stereospecific Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of enantioenriched benzylic tricyclohexyltin nucleophiles. This process proceeds with excellent stereospecificity for a remarkably broad scope of electrophilic coupling partners including aryl and heteroaryl halides and triflates, acid chlorides, thioesters, chloroformates, and carbamoyl chlorides. Thus, enantioenriched 1,1-diarylalkanes as well as formal products of asymmetric enolate arylation are readily accessed using this approach. We additionally provide the first demonstration of a Sn-selective cross-coupling reaction using a vicinal alkylborylstannane nucleophile. In these reactions, the presence of cyclohexyl spectator ligands on tin is essential to ensure selective transfer of the secondary benzylic unit from tin to palladium.

Stereospecific, Nickel-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Allylic Pivalates To Deliver Quaternary Stereocenters.

Project description:Recognizing the importance of all-carbon, quaternary stereocenters in complex molecule synthesis, a stereospecific, nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling of allylic pivalates with arylboroxines to deliver products equipped with quaternary stereocenters and internal alkenes was developed. The enantioenriched allylic pivalate starting materials are readily prepared, and a variety of functional groups can be incorporated on both the allylic pivalate and the arylboroxine. Additional advantages include the use of a commercially available and air-stable Ni(II) salt and BISBI ligand, mild reaction conditions, and high yields and ee's. The observed stereoinversion of this reaction is consistent with an open transition state in the oxidative addition step.

Nickel-catalyzed cross-couplings of benzylic pivalates with arylboroxines: stereospecific formation of diarylalkanes and triarylmethanes.

Project description:We have developed a stereospecific nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling of benzylic pivalates with arylboroxines. The success of this reaction relies on the use of Ni(cod)2 as the catalyst and NaOMe as a uniquely effective base. This reaction has broad scope with respect to the arylboroxine and benzylic pivalate, enabling the synthesis of a variety of diarylalkanes and triarylmethanes in good to excellent yields and ee's.

Modular, Catalytic Enantioselective Construction of Quaternary Carbon Stereocenters by Sequential Cross-Coupling Reactions.

Project description:The catalytic Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with chiral γ,γ-disubstituted allylboronates in the presence of RuPhos ligand occurs with high regioselectivity and enantiospecificity, furnishing nonracemic compounds with quaternary centers. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the reaction occurs by transmetalation with allyl migration, followed by rapid reductive elimination.

Nickel-catalyzed cross couplings of benzylic ammonium salts and boronic acids: stereospecific formation of diarylethanes via C-N bond activation.

Project description:We have developed a nickel-catalyzed cross coupling of benzylic ammonium triflates with aryl boronic acids to afford diarylmethanes and diarylethanes. This reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions and with exceptional functional group tolerance. Further, it transforms branched benzylic ammonium salts to diarylethanes with excellent chirality transfer, offering a new strategy for the synthesis of highly enantioenriched diarylethanes from readily available chiral benzylic amines.

Cross-dehydrogenative coupling enables enantioselective access to CF<sub>3</sub>-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereocenters.

Project description:A cross-dehydrogenative coupling strategy for enantioselective access to acyclic CF3-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereocenters has been established. By using catalytic DDQ with MnO2 as an inexpensive terminal oxidant, asymmetric cross coupling of racemic δ-CF3-substituted phenols with indoles proceeded smoothly, providing CF3-bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters with excellent chemo- and enantioselectivities. The generality of the strategy is further demonstrated by efficient construction of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters bearing other polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl groups such as CF2Cl, C2F5, and C3F7.

A General Approach to Stereospecific Cross-Coupling Reactions of Nitrogen-Containing Stereocenters.

Project description:A novel strategy employing cyclohexyl spectator ligands in Stille cross-coupling reactions has been developed as a general solution to the long-standing challenge of conducting stereospecific cross-coupling reactions at nitrogen-containing stereocenters. This method enables direct access to enantioenriched products that are difficult (or impossible) to obtain via alternative preparative methods. Selective and predictable transfer of a single secondary alkyl unit can be achieved under reaction conditions that exploit subtle electronic differences between activated and unactivated alkyl units. Through this approach, enantioenriched ?-stannylated nitrogen-containing stereocenters undergo Pd-catalyzed arylation and acylation reactions with exceptionally high stereofidelity in all instances investigated. We demonstrate this process by using ?-stannylated pyrrolidine, azetidine, and open-chain (benzylic and non-benzylic) nucleophiles in stereospecific reactions. This process will facilitate rapid and reliable access to enantioenriched compounds possessing nitrogen-substituted stereocenters, which constitute ubiquitous structural motifs in biologically active compounds emerging from the drug-discovery process.

Transforming Benzylic Amines into Diarylmethanes: Cross-Couplings of Benzylic Pyridinium Salts via C-N Bond Activation.

Project description:A nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling of benzylic pyridinium salts with arylboronic acids was developed. Coupled with chemoselective pyridinium formation, this method allows benzyl primary amines to be efficiently converted to di(hetero)arylmethanes. Excellent heteroaryl and functional group tolerance is observed, and a one-pot procedure enables benzylic amines to be converted to diarylmethanes directly.
