Asymmetric Protonation of Cumulenolates: Synthesis of Allenyl Aldehydes Facilitated by an Organomanganese Auxiliary.


ABSTRACT: Chiral ammonium salts were used to catalyze the isomerization of organomanganese-complexed alkynyl aldehydes to chiral allenal building blocks in moderate to good enantiomeric excesses. Normally, conjugated alkynyl aldehydes do not isomerize to their thermodynamically less stable allene isomers. However, with a manganese auxiliary in place to promote allene formation, asymmetric protonation of cumulenolate intermediates was realized using a variety of cinchonidinium salts in a weakly basic biphasic reaction system. Optimal results were realized using a novel cinchonidinium geranyl derivative with its C-9 hydroxyl group playing a crucial role in enantioselectivity.
