Homogeneous Sc(OTf)₃-Catalyzed Direct Allylation Reactions of General Alcohols with Allylsilanes.

ABSTRACT: Homogeneous Sc(OTf)₃ used in nitromethane showed excellent catalytic activity for the direct allylation reactions of general alcohols including benzylic, propargylic, allylic, and some aliphatic alcohols with allyltrimethylsilane under mild and neutral reaction conditions. Metal-free β-silyl-substituted carbocations are intermediates generated by the highly oxophilic Sc(OTf)₃-assisted rapid removal of a hydroxyl group in alcohols, which is supported by the result that allylation of (R)-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)ethan-1-ol with allytrimethylsilanes using the Sc(OTf)₃ catalyst combined with (R)- or (S)-[1,1'-binaphthalene]-2,2'-diol ligands gave only racemic 2-(pent-4-en-2-yl)naphthalene in quantitative yield. The present study resolves the argument about the uncertain catalytic activity of Sc(OTf)₃.

Temperature dependence of turnover in a Sc(OTf)3-catalyzed intramolecular Schmidt reaction.

Project description:The intramolecular Schmidt reaction of ketones and tethered azides is an efficient method for the generation of amides and lactams. This reaction is catalyzed by Lewis acids, which tightly bind the strongly basic amide product and result in product inhibition. We report herein conditions to achieve a catalytic Schmidt reaction using substoichiometric amounts of the heat-stable Lewis acid Sc(OTf)3. This species was shown to effectively release products of the Schmidt reaction in a temperature-dependent fashion. Thus, heat was able to promote catalyst turnover. A brief substrate scope was conducted using these conditions.

Arylboronic Acid Catalyzed C-Alkylation and Allylation Reactions Using Benzylic Alcohols.

Project description:The arylboronic acid catalyzed dehydrative C-alkylation of 1,3-diketones and 1,3-ketoesters using secondary benzylic alcohols as the electrophile is reported, forming new C-C bonds (19 examples, up to 98% yield) with the release of water as the only byproduct. The process is also applicable to the allylation of benzylic alcohols using allyltrimethylsilane as the nucleophile (12 examples, up to 96% yield).

Palladium-Catalyzed Allylation/Benzylation of H-Phosphinate Esters with Alcohols.

Project description:The Pd-catalyzed direct alkylation of H-phosphinic acids and hypophosphorous acid with allylic/benzylic alcohols has been described previously. Here, the extension of this methodology to H-phosphinate esters is presented. The new reaction appears general, although its scope is narrower than with the acids, and its mechanism is likely different. Various alcohols are examined in their reaction with phosphinylidene compounds R¹R²P(O)H.

Bi(III)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Allylation Reactions of Ketimines.

Project description:Chiral homoallylic amines not only are found in pharmaceutically relevant compounds but also serve as versatile building blocks for chemical synthesis. However, catalytic allylation of ketimines with allylboronates, an attractive approach to synthesize chiral homoallylic amine scaffolds remain scarce. Herein, we develop a highly enantioselective allylation of isatin-derived ketimines with boron allylation reagents catalyzed by a Bi(OAc)3-chiral phosphoric acid catalyst system. The reactions are remarkably efficient and mild, most of which were completed in less than an hour at room temperature with only 1/2 mol% (Bi(OAc)3/CPA) catalyst loading. A wide range of chiral 3-allyl 3-aminooxindoles were obtained in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. The synthetic utility was demonstrated by efficient formal synthesis of (+)-AG-041R and (-)-psychotriasine. Preliminary mechanism was studied by control experiments and theoretical calculations.

Yb(OTf)3-Catalyzed and Di-tert-butyl Dicarbonate-Mediated Decarboxylative Etherification and Esterification Reactions.

Project description:Protecting group chemistry has invariably captured the fascination of chemists because of its extensive viability in chemical synthesis. The present report describes our pioneer work of applying ytterbium triflate as a catalyst, for the reaction of alcohols with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (Boc2O) leading to the formation of tert-butyl ethers. There exists no recorded evidence for the use of Yb(OTf)3 as a catalyst for the protection of alcohols to tert-butyl ethers, despite its excellent utility in various reactions. Yb(OTf)3 has been used predominantly in the catalytic deprotection studies such as selective deprotection of tert-butyl esters to carboxylic acids as well as prenyl ethers to alcohols. This study involved the critical evaluation of solvent, time, and temperature that finally led to an efficient protocol for the formation of tert-butyl ethers. Yb(OTf)3 catalyzed the formation of tert-butyl ethers, notably reducing the reaction time, which is exemplified by the achievement of up to 92% conversion of alcohols to tert-butyl ethers within an hour. Additionally, the report demonstrates the utility of this synthetic protocol for the protection of carboxylic acids.

Access to stereodefined (Z)-allylsilanes and (Z)-allylic alcohols via cobalt-catalyzed regioselective hydrosilylation of allenes.

Project description:Hydrosilylation of allenes is the addition of a hydrogen atom and a silyl group to a carbon-carbon double bond of an allene molecule and represents a straightforward and atom-economical approach to prepare synthetically versatile allylsilanes and vinylsilanes. However, this reaction generally produces six possible isomeric organosilanes, and the biggest challenge in developing this reaction is to control both regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. The majorities of the developed allene hydrosilylation reactions show high selectivity towards the production of vinylsilanes or branched allylsilanes. By employing a cobalt catalyst generated from readily available and bench-stable cobalt precursor and phosphine-based ligands, here we show that this reaction proceeds under mild conditions in a regioselective and stereoselective manner, and affords synthetically challenging, but valuable linear cis-allylsilanes with excellent stereoselectivity (generally cis to trans ratios: >98:2). This cobalt-catalyzed (Z)-selective allene hydrosilylation provides a general approach to access molecules containing stereodefined (Z)-alkene units.

Asymmetric Petasis Borono-Mannich Allylation Reactions Catalyzed by Chiral Biphenols.

Project description:Chiral biphenols catalyze the asymmetric Petasis borono-Mannich allylation of aldehydes and amines through the use of a bench-stable allyldioxaborolane. The reaction proceeds via a two-step, one-pot process and requires 2-8 mole % of 3,3'-Ph2 -BINOL as the optimal catalyst. Under microwave heating the reaction affords chiral homoallylic amines in excellent yields (up to 99 %) and high enantioselectivies (er up to 99:1). The catalytic reaction is a true multicomponent condensation reaction whereas both the aldehyde and the amine can possess a wide range of structural and electronic properties. Use of crotyldioxaborolane in the reaction results in stereodivergent products with anti- and syn-diastereomers both in good diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities from the corresponding E- and Z-borolane stereoisomers.

Synthesis of 1-(β-coumarinyl)-1-(β-indolyl)trifluoroethanols through regioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with β-(trifluoroacetyl)coumarins catalyzed by Sc(OTf)3.

Project description:A highly efficient Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indole derivatives with β-(trifluoroacetyl)coumarins using Sc(OTf)3 as a catalyst has been developed, which gives regioselective 1,2-adducts to afford 1-(β-coumarinyl)-1-(β-indolyl)trifluoroethanols. A series of tertiary trifluoroethanols containing different indole and coumarin groups were synthesized in moderate to excellent yields (up to 95%) in the presence of 5 mol% catalyst in a short time (only 2 minutes at least). A mechanism of the reaction, in which the trace amount of water plays the role of proton transfer in catalyzing circulation was proposed and confirmed.

Regioselective dihalohydration reactions of propargylic alcohols: gold-catalyzed and noncatalyzed reactions.

Project description:The regioselective conversion of propargylic alcohols into previously unreported ?,?-diiodo-?-hydroxyketones was achieved by treatment with N-iodosuccinimide in the presence of a gold catalyst. The corresponding ?,?-dichloro-?-hydroxyketones were obtained by treatment with trichloroisocyanuric acid in the absence of a catalyst. The latter reaction can be extended to other alkynols. These transformations can be used to prepare potentially useful halogenated building blocks. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction involves participation of the acetonitrile solvent in the formation of a 5-halo-1,3-oxazine intermediate.
