Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of geminal-dicarboxylates.

ABSTRACT: Stereogenic acetals, spiroacetals and ketals are well-studied stereochemical features that bear two heteroatoms at a common carbon atom. These stereocenters are normally found in cyclic structures while linear (or acyclic) analogues bearing two heteroatoms are rare. Chiral geminal-dicarboxylates are illustrative, there is no current way to access this class of compounds while controlling the stereochemistry at the carbon center bound to two oxygen atoms. Here we report a rhodium-catalysed asymmetric carboxylation of ester-containing allylic bromides to form stereogenic carbon centers bearing two different carboxylates with high yields and enantioselectivities. The products, which are surprisingly stable to a variety of acidic and basic conditions, can be manipulated with no loss of enantiomeric purity as demonstrated by ring closing metathesis reactions to form chiral lactones, which have been extensively used as building blocks in asymmetric synthesis.

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of meta Benzene Isosteres

Project description:Aromatic rings are common elements in pharmaceutically active compounds; however, their ready oxidation can present a liability with respect to a drug's metabolic stability. Replacing these aromatic rings in pharmaceutical compounds with non-aromatic isosteric motifs can enhance properties such as potency, metabolic stability, solubility, and lipophilicity. Since the binding pockets of most pharmaceutical targets are chiral, the stereochemical configuration of the isosteric replacements are expected to have an impact on the affinity of derived ligands for target receptors. A significant impediment to this approach is the lack of simple, and scalable catalytic enantioselective syntheses of candidate isosteres from readily available precursors. In this work, we present a heretofore unknown palladium-catalyzed reaction that converts hydrocarbon-derived precursors to chiral boron-containing nortricyclanes and we show that that shape of these nortricyclanes makes them plausible isosteres for meta disubstituted aromatic rings. With chiral catalysts, the Pd-catalyzed reaction can be accomplished in an enantioselective fashion and subsequent transformation of the boron group provides access to a broad array of structures. We also show that incorporation of nortricyclanes into pharmaceutical motifs can result in improved biophysical properties along with stereochemistry-dependent activity. We anticipate that these features, coupled with the simple, inexpensive synthesis of the functionalized nortricyclane scaffold will render this platform a useful foundation for assembly of new biologically active agents.

Catalytic asymmetric formal synthesis of beraprost.

Project description:The first catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the key intermediate for beraprost has been achieved through an enantioselective intramolecular oxa-Michael reaction of an ?,?-unsaturated amide mediated by a newly developed benzothiadiazine catalyst. The Weinreb amide moiety and bromo substituent of the Michael adduct were utilized for the C-C bond formations to construct the scaffold. All four contiguous stereocenters of the tricyclic core were controlled via Rh-catalyzed stereoselective C-H insertion and the subsequent reduction from the convex face.

One-pot catalytic asymmetric synthesis of pyranones.

Project description:Enantioenriched pyranones are important intermediates in the synthesis of natural products and the generation of compound libraries. A one-pot method for their synthesis is outlined. Catalytic asymmetric alkylation of 2-furfurals in the presence of catalytic (-)-MIB generates enantioenriched furyl zinc alkoxides. Addition of water/THF followed by NBS results in formation of pyranones with ee's >90% and yields between 46-77%.

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Highly Substituted Pyrrolizidines.

Project description:A catalytic asymmetric double (1,3)-dipolar cycloaddition reaction has been developed. Using a chiral silver catalyst, enantioenriched pyrrolizidines can be prepared in one flask from inexpensive, commercially available starting materials. The pyrrolizidine products contain a variety of substitution patterns and as many as six stereogenic centers.

The catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of elatol.

Project description:Described in this report is the first total synthesis of elatol, a halogenated sesquiterpene in the chamigrene natural product family. The key disconnections in our synthetic approach include an enantioselective decarboxylative allylation to form the all-carbon quaternary stereocenter and a ring-closing olefin metathesis to concomitantly form the spirocyclic core as well as the fully substituted chlorinated olefin. This strategy represents a general platform for accessing the chamigrene natural product family, as demonstrated by the synthesis of (+)-laurencenone B as an intermediate in our route.

One-Pot Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Tetrahydrocarbazoles.

Project description:A one-pot asymmetric synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles has been developed via an enantioselective [3 + 3] annulation of 2-alkynylindoles and donor-acceptor cyclopropanes. In the presence of chiral Lewis acids as catalysts, a series of optically active tetrahydrocarbazoles were furnished in high yields (63-87%) with good to excellent levels of enantioselectivity (up to 94% ee).

A Catalytic Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (-)-Perophoramidine.

Project description:We report a catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of the ascidian natural product perophoramidine. The synthesis employs a molybdenum-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of an oxindole nucleophile and a monosubstituted allylic electrophile as a key asymmetric step. The enantioenriched oxindole product from this transformation contains vicinal quaternary and tertiary stereocenters, and is obtained in high yield along with high levels of regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity. To install the second quaternary stereocenter in the target, the route utilizes a novel regio- and diastereoselective allylation of a cyclic imino ether to deliver an allylated imino ether product in near quantitative yield and with complete regio- and diastereocontrol. Oxidative cleavage and reductive amination are used as final steps to access the natural product.

Catalytic Asymmetric Total Synthesis of (-)-Actinophyllic Acid.

Project description:Described herein is a catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-actinophyllic acid, with the key step being a chiral phosphine-catalyzed [3 + 2] annulation between an imine and an allenoate to form a pyrroline intermediate in 99% yield and 94% ee. The synthesis also features CuI-catalyzed coupling between a ketoester and a 2-iodoindole to shape the tetrahydroazocine ring; intramolecular alkylative lactonization; SmI2-mediated intramolecular pinacol coupling between ketone and lactone subunits to assemble the complex skeleton of (-)-actinophyllic acid; and an unprecedented regioselective dehydroxylation.

Project description:A concise asymmetric, formal synthesis of (+)-hamigeran B is reported. A Pd-catalyzed, decarboxylative allylic alkylation, employing a trifluoromethylated derivative of t-BuPHOX, is utilized as the enantioselective step to form the critical quaternary carbon center in excellent yield and enantioselectivity. The product is converted in three steps to a late-stage intermediate previously used in the synthesis of hamigeran B.

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of chiral allylic esters.

Project description:Trichloroacetimidate derivatives of prochiral (Z)-2-alken-1-ols react at room temperature with carboxylic acids to give chiral 3-acyloxy-1-alkenes in high enantiopurity in the presence of di-mu-acetatobis[(eta5-(S)-(pR)-2-(2'-(4'-methylethyl)oxazolinyl)cyclopentadienyl,1-C,3'-N)(eta4-tetraphenylcyclobutadiene)cobalt]dipalladium (COP-OAc) or its enantiomer. This reaction has broad scope, proceeds with predictable high stereoinduction, is accomplished at room temperature using high substrate concentrations and low catalyst loadings, and likely proceeds by a novel mechanism.
