Enantioselective Synthesis of Chiral Cyclopent-2-enones by Nickel-Catalyzed Desymmetrization of Malonate Esters.

ABSTRACT: The enantioselective synthesis of highly functionalized chiral cyclopent-2-enones by the reaction of alkynyl malonate esters with arylboronic acids is described. These desymmetrizing arylative cyclizations are catalyzed by a chiral phosphinooxazoline/nickel complex, and cyclization is enabled by the reversible E/Z?isomerization of alkenylnickel species. The general methodology is also applicable to the synthesis of 1,6-dihydropyridin-3(2H)-ones.

Dual Nickel- and Photoredox-Catalyzed Enantioselective Desymmetrization of Cyclic meso-Anhydrides.

Project description:The enantioselective desymmetrization of cyclic meso-anhydrides with benzyl trifluoroborates under nickel-photoredox catalysis is described. The reaction tolerates a variety of sterically and electronically different trifluoroborates, as well as structurally unique cyclic anhydrides. The trans isomer of the keto-acid products is also observed at varying levels dependent on the trifluoroborate identity and relative catalyst loading. A mechanism involving decarbonylation and Ni-C bond homolysis of a NiII adduct is proposed. This feature allows access to a trans keto-acid as the major product in high enantioselectivity from a cis meso anhydride.

Chiral imine copper chloride-catalyzed enantioselective desymmetrization of 2-substituted 1,2,3-propanetriols.

Project description:Catalytic enantioselective desymmetrization of meso-2-substituted glycerols has been developed to secure a novel synthetic route to chiral tertiary alcohols. The transformation has been realized by monobenzoylation using benzoyl chloride and triethylamine in the presence of the imine ligand (25)-CuCl2 complex in THF at ambient temperature. The desymmetrization turned out to be greatly dependent on acylating reagent, base, solvent, and needless to say, catalyst. Extensive screening of chiral ligands led us to combine bromopyridinecarboxaldehyde 1 and phenyloxazoline amine 12 derived from tert-leucine, the bromo and phenyl substituents of which proved to be indispensable. All of the substrates have been desymmetrized to the corresponding monobenzoates with high enantioselectivity up to 96% enantiomeric excess. The catalytic system allows broad structural diversity of substrates and its synthetic versatility has been demonstrated by an efficient synthetic route to a known key precursor 68 of triazole antifungals.

Enantioselective Nazarov cyclization of indole enones cooperatively catalyzed by Lewis acids and chiral Bronsted acids.

Project description:Enantioselective control of the chirality of a tertiary ?-carbon in the products of a Nazarov cyclization of enones is challenging because the reaction involves an enantioselective proton transfer process. We herein report the use of cooperative catalysis using Lewis acids and chiral Brønsted acids to control the stereochemistry of the tertiary ?-carbon in the products of this reaction. Specifically, with ZnCl2 and a chiral spiro phosphoric acid as catalysts, we realized the first enantioselective construction of cyclopenta[b]indoles with chiral tertiary ?-carbons via Nazarov cyclization of indole enone substrates with only one coordinating site. Mechanistic studies revealed that the chiral spiro phosphoric acid acts as a multifunctional catalyst: it co-catalyzes the cyclization of the dienone and enantioselectively catalyzes a proton transfer reaction of the enol intermediate. This new strategy of enantioselective control by means of cooperative catalysis may show utility for other challenging asymmetric cyclization reactions.

Project description:Herein, we present a highly enantioselective desymmetrization of 3-substituted oxetanes enabled by a confined chiral phosphoric acid. This metal-free process allows effective access to chiral seven-membered 1,4-benzoxazepines with a high degree of enantiocontrol, under mild reaction conditions. The developed synthetic strategy tolerates a broad substrate scope and demonstrates its synthetic utility in various enantioselective product transformations, thus proving its effectiveness in diverse scenarios.

Direct and Enantioselective Aldol Reactions Catalyzed by Chiral Nickel(II) Complexes.

Project description:A direct and asymmetric aldol reaction of N-acyl thiazinanethiones with aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by chiral nickel(II) complexes is reported. The reaction gives the corresponding O-TIPS-protected anti-aldol adducts in high yields and with remarkable stereocontrol and atom economy. Furthermore, the straightforward removal of the achiral scaffold provides enantiomerically pure intermediates of synthetic interest, which involve precursors for anti-α-amino-β-hydroxy and α,β-dihydroxy carboxylic derivatives. Theoretical calculations explain the observed high stereocontrol.

Selenide-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of trifluoromethylthiolated tetrahydronaphthalenes by merging desymmetrization and trifluoromethylthiolation.

Project description:Trifluoromethylthiolated molecules are an important class of biologically active compounds and potential drug candidates. Because of the lack of efficient synthetic methods, catalytic enantioselective construction of these molecules is rare and remains a challenge. To expand this field, we herein disclose a bifunctional selenide-catalyzed approach for the synthesis of various chiral trifluoromethylthiolated tetrahydronaphthalenes bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter with gem-diaryl-tethered alkenes and alkynes by merging desymmetrization and trifluoromethylthiolation strategy. The products are obtained in high yields with excellent enantio- and diastereo-selectivities. This method can be applied to the desymmetrization and sulfenylation of diols as well. Computational studies reveal that selenide can activate the electrophilic reagent better than sulfide, confirming the higher efficiency of selenide catalysis in these reactions. On the basis of the theoretical calculations, an acid-derived anion-binding interaction is suggested to exist in the whole pathway and accounts for the observed high selectivities.

Two-step synthesis of chiral fused tricyclic scaffolds from phenols via desymmetrization on nickel.

Project description:Tricyclic furan derivatives with multiple chiral centers are ubiquitous in natural products. Construction of such tricyclic scaffolds in a stereocontrolled, step-economic, and atom-economic manner is a key challenge. Here we show a nickel-catalyzed highly enantioselective synthesis of hydronaphtho[1,8-bc]furans with five contiguous chiral centers via desymmetrization of alkynyl-cyclohexadienone by oxidative cyclization and following formal [4?+?2] cycloaddition processes. Alkynyl-cyclohexadienone was synthesized in one step from easily accessible phenols. This reaction represents excellent chemo-selectivity, regio-selectivity, diastereo-selectivity, and enantio-selectivity (single diastereomer, up to 99% ee). An extraordinary regioselectivity in the formal [4?+?2] cycloaddition step with enones revealed the diverse reactivity of the nickelacycle intermediate. Desymmetrization of alkynyl-cyclohexadienones via oxidative cyclization on nickel was supported by the isolation of a nickelacycle from a stoichiometric reaction. Enantioenriched tricyclic products contain various functional groups such as C=O and C=C. The synthetic utility of these products was demonstrated by derivatization of these functional groups.Tricyclic furanic compounds with multiple chiral centers are found in a variety of natural products. Here, the authors show a highly enantioselective nickel-catalyzed procedure to access tricyclic oxygen-containing scaffolds with five contiguous chiral centers.

Gold-Catalyzed Synthesis of Chiral Cyclopentadienyl Esters via Chirality Transfer.

Project description:Efficient access to chiral cyclopentadienyl esters from readily accessible chiral enynyl ester substrates is developed. Typically high levels of chirality transfer realized in this homogeneous gold catalysis are attributed to the intermediacy of a chiral bent allene gold complex. Cyclopentadienyl esters can be prepared in good yields and with excellent enantiomeric excesses. The synthetic utilities of the chiral cyclopentadienyl esters are demonstrated by the Diels-Alder reactions, fluorination, alkylation, and epoxidation without any notable erosion of enantiopurity.
