Ni-Catalyzed Enantioselective Conjunctive Coupling with C(sp3) Electrophiles: A Radical-Ionic Mechanistic Dichotomy.

ABSTRACT: The catalytic enantioselective conjunctive coupling of C(sp3) electrophiles can be accomplished with Ni catalysis. The enantioselectivity of the reaction is dependent on reaction mechanism with many substrates able to engage in an asymmetric process with Pybox-Ni complexes, whereas other substrates provide racemic product mixtures. The link between substrate structure and selectivity is addressed.

Integrating Allyl Electrophiles into Nickel-Catalyzed Conjunctive Cross-Coupling.

Project description:Allylation and conjunctive cross-coupling represent two useful, yet largely distinct, reactivity paradigms in catalysis. The union of these two processes would offer exciting possibilities in organic synthesis but remains largely unknown. Herein, we report the use of allyl electrophiles in nickel-catalyzed conjunctive cross-coupling with a non-conjugated alkene and dimethylzinc. The transformation is enabled by weakly coordinating, monodentate aza-heterocycle directing groups that are useful building blocks in synthesis, including saccharin, pyridones, pyrazoles, and triazoles. The reaction occurs under mild conditions and is compatible with a wide range of allyl electrophiles. High chemoselectivity through substrate directivity is demonstrated by the facile reactivity of the β-γ alkene of the starting material, whereas the ϵ-ζ alkene of the product is preserved. The generality of this approach is further illustrated through the development of an analogous method with alkyne substrates. Mechanistic studies reveal the importance of the dissociation of the weakly coordinating directing group to allow the allyl moiety to bind and facilitate C(sp3 )-C(sp3 ) reductive elimination.

Alkyl Group Migration in Ni-Catalyzed Conjunctive Coupling with C(sp3) Electrophiles: Reaction Development and Application to Targets of Interest.

Project description:A catalytic conjunctive cross-coupling reaction is developed that allows the construction of chiral organoboronic esters from alkylboron ate complexes and alkyl iodide electrophiles. The process occurs most efficiently with a Ni/Pybox-comprised catalyst and with an acenapthoquinone-derived boron ligand. Because of the broad functional group tolerance of this reaction, it can be a versatile tool for organic synthesis. Applications to the construction of (R)-coniine and (-)-indolizidine 209D are described.

Catalytic enantioselective cyclization/cross-coupling with alkyl electrophiles.

Project description:As part of our ongoing effort to expand the scope of cross-coupling reactions of alkyl electrophiles, we have pursued a strategy wherein the nucleophilic coupling partner includes a pendant olefin; after transmetalation by such a substrate, if ?-migratory insertion proceeds faster than direct cross-coupling, an additional carbon-carbon bond and stereocenter can be formed. With the aid of a nickel/diamine catalyst (both components are commercially available), we have established the viability of this approach for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans and indanes. Furthermore, we have applied this new method to the construction of the dihydrobenzofuran core of fasiglifam, as well as to a cross-coupling with a racemic alkyl electrophile; in the latter process, the chiral catalyst controls two stereocenters, one that is newly generated in a ?-migratory insertion and one that begins as a mixture of enantiomers.

Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioselective Conjunctive Cross-Coupling of 9-BBN Borates.

Project description:Catalytic enantioselective conjunctive cross-coupling between 9-BBN borate complexes and aryl electrophiles can be accomplished with Ni salts in the presence of a chiral diamine ligand. The reactions furnish chiral 9-BBN derivatives in an enantioselective fashion and these are converted to chiral alcohols and amines, or engaged in other stereospecific C-C bond forming reactions.

Enantioselective Construction of Tertiary Boronic Esters by Conjunctive Cross-Coupling.

Project description:Catalytic enantioselective conjunctive cross-coupling has been developed to construct tertiary alkylboronic esters. These reactions occur with good yield and enantioselectivity for a range of substrates. Mechanistic experiments reveal aspects of the catalytic cycle that allow hindered substrates to react without significant complicating side reactions.

Enantioselective C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross-coupling of non-activated alkyl electrophiles via nickel hydride catalysis.

Project description:Cross-coupling of two alkyl fragments is an efficient method to produce organic molecules rich in sp3-hybridized carbon centres, which are attractive candidate compounds in drug discovery. Enantioselective C(sp3)-C(sp3) coupling is challenging, especially of alkyl electrophiles without an activating group (aryl, vinyl, carbonyl). Here, we report a strategy based on nickel hydride addition to internal olefins followed by nickel-catalysed alkyl-alkyl coupling. This strategy enables the enantioselective cross-coupling of non-activated alkyl halides with alkenyl boronates to produce chiral alkyl boronates. Employing readily available and stable olefins as pro-chiral nucleophiles, the coupling proceeds under mild conditions and exhibits broad scope and high functional-group tolerance. Applications for the functionalization of natural products and drug molecules, as well as the synthesis of chiral building blocks and a key intermediate to (S)-(+)-pregabalin, are demonstrated.

Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of anti-Vicinal Silylboronates by Conjunctive Cross-Coupling.

Project description:Chiral 1,2-bimetallic reagents are useful motifs in synthetic chemistry. Although syn-1,2-bimetallic compounds can be prepared by alkene dimetallation, anti-1,2-bimetallics are still rare. The stereospecific 1,2-metallate shift that occurs during conjunctive cross-coupling is shown to enable a practical and modular approach to the catalytic synthesis of enantioenriched anti-1,2-borosilanes. In addition to reaction development, the synthetic utility of anti-1,2-borosilanes was investigated, including applications to the synthesis of anti-1,2-diols and anti-1,2-amino alcohols.

Diastereoselective and Enantioselective Conjunctive Cross-Coupling Enabled by Boron Ligand Design.

Project description:Enantio- and diastereoselective conjunctive cross-coupling of β-substituted alkenylboron "ate" complexes is studied. Whereas β-substitution shifts the chemoselectivity of the catalytic reaction in favor of the Suzuki-Miyaura product, use of a boronic ester ligand derived from acenaphthoquinone allows the process to favor the conjunctive product, even with substituted substrates.

Enantioselective alkylative cross-coupling of unactivated aromatic C-O electrophiles.

Project description:Nonpolar alkyl moieties, especially methyl group, are frequently used to modify bioactive molecules during lead optimization in medicinal chemistry. Thus transition-metal catalyzed alkylative cross-coupling reactions by using readily available and environmentally benign C-O electrophiles have been established as powerful tools to install alkyl groups, however, the C(sp3)-C(sp2) cross-coupling via asymmetric activation of aromatic C-O bond for the synthesis of alkylated chiral compounds remains elusive. Here, we unlock a C(sp3)-C(sp2) cross-coupling via enantioselective activation of aromatic C-O bond for the efficient synthesis of versatile axially chiral 2-alkyl-2'-hydroxyl-biaryl compounds. By employing a unique chiral N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, this transformation is accomplished via nickel catalysis with good enantiocontrol. Mechanistic studies indicate that bis-ligated nickel complexes might be formed as catalytically active species in the enantioselective alkylative cross-coupling. Moreover, further derivation experiments suggest this developed methodology holds great promise for complex molecule synthesis and asymmetric catalysis.
