Pd^II -Catalyzed Enantioselective C(sp³ )-H Arylation of Cyclobutyl Ketones Using a Chiral Transient Directing Group.

ABSTRACT: The use of chiral transient directing groups (TDGs) is a promising approach for developing Pd^II -catalyzed enantioselective C(sp³ )-H activation reactions. However, this strategy is challenging because the stereogenic center on the TDG is often far from the C-H bond, and both TDG covalently attached to the substrate and free TDG are capable of coordinating to Pd^II centers, which can result in a mixture of reactive complexes. We report a Pd^II -catalyzed enantioselective β-C(sp³ )-H arylation reaction of aliphatic ketones using a chiral TDG. A chiral trisubstituted cyclobutane was efficiently synthesized from a mono-substituted cyclobutane through sequential C-H arylation reactions, thus demonstrating the utility of this method for accessing structurally complex products from simple starting materials. The use of an electron-deficient pyridone ligand is crucial for the observed enantioselectivity. Interestingly, employing different silver salts can reverse the enantioselectivity.

Computational Analysis of Enantioselective Pd-Catalyzed α-Arylation of Ketones.

Project description:The direct α-arylation of carbonyl compounds emerged over the last two decades as a straightforward method for the formation of C(sp3)-C(sp2) bonds. Mechanistic studies suggested a classical cross-coupling catalytic cycle. This consists of oxidative addition of the aryl halide (ArX) to the Pd(0)-catalyst, transmetallation of the Na- or K-enolate generated in situ, and subsequent reductive elimination. Even though the general reaction mechanism was thoroughly investigated, studies focusing on enantioselective variants of this transformation are rare. Here, the computational study of the [Pd(BINAP)]-catalyzed α-arylation of 2-methyltetralone with bromobenzene is reported. The whole reaction energy profile was computed and several mechanistic scenarios were investigated for the key steps of the reaction, which are the enolate transmetallation and the C-C bond-forming reductive elimination. Among the computed mechanisms, the reductive elimination from the C-bound enolate Pd complex was found to be the most favorable one, providing a good match with the stereoselectivity observed experimentally with different ligands and substrates. Detailed analysis of the stereodetermining transition structures allowed us to establish the origin of the reaction enantioselectivity.

Chromium(II)-catalyzed enantioselective arylation of ketones.

Project description:The chromium-catalyzed enantioselective addition of carbo halides to carbonyl compounds is an important transformation in organic synthesis. However, the corresponding catalytic enantioselective arylation of ketones has not been reported to date. Herein, we report the first Cr-catalyzed enantioselective addition of aryl halides to both arylaliphatic and aliphatic ketones with high enantioselectivity in an intramolecular version, providing facile access to enantiopure tetrahydronaphthalen-1-ols and 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ols containing a tertiary alcohol.

Pd-Catalyzed ?-C(sp3)-H Arylation of Free Amines Using a Transient Directing Group.

Project description:Pd(II)-catalyzed ?-C(sp3)-H arylation of primary amines is realized by using 2-hydroxynicotinaldehyde as a catalytic transient directing group. Importantly, the catalyst and the directing group loading can be lowered to 2% and 4% respectively, thus demonstrating high efficiency of this newly designed transient directing group. Heterocyclic aryl iodides are also compatible with this reaction. Furthermore, swift synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthyridine derivatives is accomplished using this reaction.

Site-Selective Pd-Catalyzed C(sp3 )-H Arylation of Heteroaromatic Ketones.

Project description:A ligand-controlled site-selective C(sp3 )-H arylation of heteroaromatic ketones has been developed using Pd catalysis. The reaction occurred selectively at the α- or β-position of the ketone side-chain. The switch from α- to β-arylation was realized by addition of a pyridone ligand. The α-arylation process showed broad scope and high site- and chemoselectivity, whereas the β-arylation was more limited. Mechanistic investigations suggested that α-arylation occurs through C-H activation/oxidative addition/reductive elimination whereas β-arylation involves desaturation and aryl insertion.

Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Selective Arylation of Tertiary C-H Bonds of Cyclobutylmethyl Ketones Using Transient Directing Groups.

Project description:We report the first example of selective PdII -catalyzed tertiary C-H activation of cyclobutylmethyl ketones using a transient directing group. An electron-deficient 2-pyridone ligand was identified as the optimal external ligand to enable tertiary C-H activation. A variety of cyclobutylmethyl ketones bearing quaternary carbon centers was readily accessed without preinstalling internal directing groups in up to 81 % yield and >95 : 5 regioisomeric ratios of tertiary C-H arylation to β-methylene (β-methyl) or γ-C-H arylation.

PdII-Catalyzed Site-selective β- and γ-C(sp3)-H Arylation of Primary Aldehydes Controlled by Transient Directing Groups.

Project description:Pd(II)-catalyzed site-selective β- and γ-C(sp3)-H arylation of primary aldehydes is developed by rational design of L,X-type transient directing groups (TDG). External 2-pyridone ligands are identified to be crucial for the observed reactivity. By minimizing the loading of acid additives, the ligand effect is enhanced to achieve high reactivities of the challenging primary aldehyde substrates. Site selectivity can be switched from the proximate to the relatively remote position by changing the bite angle of TDG to match the desired palladacycle size. Experimental and computational investigations support this rationale for designing TDG to potentially achieve remote site-selective C(sp3)-H functionalizations.

PdII -Catalyzed C(alkenyl)-H Activation Facilitated by a Transient Directing Group.

Project description:Palladium(II)-catalyzed C(alkenyl)-H alkenylation enabled by a transient directing group (TDG) strategy is described. The dual catalytic process takes advantage of reversible condensation between an alkenyl aldehyde substrate and an amino acid TDG to facilitate coordination of the metal catalyst and subsequent C(alkenyl)-H activation by a tailored carboxylate base. The resulting palladacycle then engages an acceptor alkene, furnishing a 1,3-diene with high regio- and E/Z-selectivity. The reaction enables the synthesis of enantioenriched atropoisomeric 2-aryl-substituted 1,3-dienes, which have seldom been examined in previous literature. Catalytically relevant alkenyl palladacycles were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, and the energy profiles of the C(alkenyl)-H activation step and the stereoinduction model were elucidated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Enantioselective C-H Arylation and Vinylation of Cyclobutyl Carboxylic Amides.

Project description:Chiral mono-N-protected aminomethyl oxazoline (MPAO) ligands are found to promote enantioselective C-H arylation and vinylation of the cyclobutyl carboxylic acid derivatives via Pd(II)/Pd(IV) redox catalysis. This ligand scaffold overcame two important limitations of the previous MPAHA (mono-N-protected α-amino-O-methylhydroxamic acid) ligands-enabled asymmetric C-H activation/C-C coupling reactions of cyclic carboxylic amides through Pd(II)/Pd(0) catalysis: substrates containing α-hydrogen atoms are not compatible; vinylation has not been developed. Sequential C-H arylation and vinylation of cyclobutanes are also accomplished to construct three consecutive chiral centers on the crowded cyclobutane rings, rendering this reaction highly versatile for the preparation of chiral cyclobutanes.

Pd(II)-Catalyzed Enantioselective C(sp3)-H Arylation of Cyclopropanes and Cyclobutanes Guided by Tertiary Alkylamines.

Project description:Strained aminomethyl-cycloalkanes are a recurrent scaffold in medicinal chemistry due to their unique structural features that give rise to a range of biological properties. Here, we report a palladium-catalyzed enantioselective C(sp3)-H arylation of aminomethyl-cyclopropanes and -cyclobutanes with aryl boronic acids. A range of native tertiary alkylamine groups are able to direct C-H cleavage and forge carbon-aryl bonds on the strained cycloalkanes framework as single diastereomers and with excellent enantiomeric ratios. Central to the success of this strategy is the use of a simple N-acetyl amino acid ligand, which not only controls the enantioselectivity but also promotes γ-C-H activation of over other pathways. Computational analysis of the cyclopalladation step provides an understanding of how enantioselective C-H cleavage occurs and revealed distinct transition structures to our previous work on enantioselective desymmetrization of N-isobutyl tertiary alkylamines. This straightforward and operationally simple method simplifies the construction of functionalized aminomethyl-strained cycloalkanes, which we believe will find widespread use in academic and industrial settings relating to the synthesis of biologically active small molecules.
