Synergistic Ammonium (Hypo)Iodite/Imine Catalysis for the Asymmetric α-Hydroxylation of β-Ketoesters.

ABSTRACT: The synergistic use of chiral bifunctional ammonium iodide catalysts in combination with simple catalytically relevant aldimines allows for an unprecedented asymmetric α-hydroxylation reaction of β-ketoesters using H₂O₂. The reaction proceeds via in situ formation of a hypervalent iodine species, which then reacts with the used aldimine to generate an activated electrophilic oxygen transfer reagent.

A Cooperative Ternary Catalysis System for Asymmetric Lactonizations of α-Ketoesters.

Project description:A general and enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed lactonization of simple enals and α-ketoesters has been discovered using a new ternary cooperative catalytic system. The highly selective annulation was achieved by using a combination of a chiral NHC, a hydrogen-bond donor, and a metal salt, facilitating self-assembly of the reactive partners. A proposed model for this new mode of NHC chiral relay catalysis is supported by experimental and computational mechanistic studies.

Towards an asymmetric organocatalytic α-cyanation of β-ketoesters.

Project description:This communication describes the first proof of concept for an asymmetric α-cyanation of β-ketoesters using a hypervalent iodine-based electrophilic cyanide-transfer reagent. A series of different organocatalysts has been investigated and it was found that the use of naturally occurring Cinchona alkaloids allows obtaining the target products in good yields and with moderate enantioselectivities up to er = 76:24 under operationally simple conditions.

Asymmetric Synthesis of N-Substituted α-Amino Esters from α-Ketoesters via Imine Reductase-Catalyzed Reductive Amination.

Project description:N-Substituted α-amino esters are widely used as chiral intermediates in a range of pharmaceuticals. Here we report the enantioselective biocatalyic synthesis of N-substituted α-amino esters through the direct reductive coupling of α-ketoesters and amines employing sequence diverse metagenomic imine reductases (IREDs). Both enantiomers of N-substituted α-amino esters were obtained with high conversion and excellent enantioselectivity under mild reaction conditions. In addition >20 different preparative scale transformations were performed highlighting the scalability of this system.

Dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformations of β-stereogenic α-ketoesters by direct aldolization.

Project description:Dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformations (DyKAT) of racemic β-bromo-α-keto esters by direct aldolization of nitromethane and acetone provide access to fully substituted α-glycolic acid derivatives bearing a β-stereocenter. The aldol adducts are obtained in excellent yield with high relative and absolute stereocontrol under mild reaction conditions. Mechanistic studies determined that the reactions proceed through a facile catalyst-mediated racemization of the β-bromo-α-keto esters under a DyKAT Type I manifold.

Expanding the scope of asymmetric electrophilic atom-transfer reactions: titanium- and ruthenium-catalyzed hydroxylation of beta-ketoesters.

Project description:The enantioselective formation of a quaternary stereogenic center coinciding with a hydroxylation process is a very rare reaction from a homogeneous catalysis point of view. Indeed, to our knowledge, no asymmetric transition-metal-catalyzed direct hydroxylation has been reported before. We describe here our initial study concerning the enantioselective alpha-hydroxylation of various beta-ketoesters catalyzed by Lewis-acidic complexes. Specifically, it was found that the Ti complex [TiCl(2)((R,R)-1-Np-TADDOLato)(MeCN)(2)] affords the hydroxylated products in high yield and enantioselectivities up to 94% enantiomeric excess when using 2-(phenylsulphonyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)oxaziridine as the oxidizing agent. Chiral enantiopure compounds of the latter type have been used previously in stoichiometric asymmetric hydroxylation reactions. We also show that, in a complementary approach with H(2)O(2) as the oxidant, the Ru(II) complex [RuCl(OE(2))((S,S)-PNNP)]PF(6) catalyzes the same type of transformation in a case of substrates showing a very substantial extent of enolization under reaction conditions; being, however, unreactive toward only weakly enolized beta-ketoesters.

Multiple roles of aryloxide leaving groups in enantioselective annulations employing α,β-unsaturated acyl ammonium catalysis.

Project description:An isothiourea-catalysed Michael addition-annulation process using β-fluoroalkyl-substituted α,β-unsaturated aryl esters and a range of 2-acylbenzazoles is reported for the enantioselective synthesis of dihydropyranone and dihydropyridinone products bearing polyfluorinated stereocenters (29 examples, up to 98% yield, >99 : 1 er). The choice of aryl group of the aryl ester proved essential in determining reaction enantioselectivity and dihydropyranone : dihydropyridinone product selectivity. The aryloxide leaving group is shown to play a number of essential additional roles, operating (i) as a Brønsted base, circumventing the need for an auxiliary base; and (ii) as a Lewis base to catalyse the isomerisation of dihydropyranone products into thermodynamically-favoured dihydropyridinones. After optimisation, this isomerisation process was exploited for the selective synthesis of dihydropyridinone products using acylbenzothiazoles, and either dihydropyranone or dihydropyridinone products using acylbenzoxazoles. Finally, the phenol derivative, produced following protonation of the aryloxide, is proposed to act as a Brønsted acid, which promotes an isothiourea-catalysed kinetic resolution of benzoxazole-derived dihydropyranones.

Asymmetric α-C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-H allylic alkylation of primary alkylamines by synergistic Ir/ketone catalysis.

Project description:Primary alkyl amines are highly reactive in N-nucleophilic reactions with electrophiles. However, their α-C-H bonds are unreactive towards electrophiles due to their extremely low acidity (pKa ~57). Nonetheless, 1,8-diazafluoren-9-one (DFO) can activate primary alkyl amines by increasing the acidity of the α-amino C-H bonds by up to 1044 times. This makes the α-amino C-H bonds acidic enough to be deprotonated under mild conditions. By combining DFO with an iridium catalyst, direct asymmetric α-C-H alkylation of NH2-unprotected primary alkyl amines with allylic carbonates has been achieved. This reaction produces a wide range of chiral homoallylic amines with high enantiopurities. The approach has successfully switched the reactivity between primary alkyl amines and allylic carbonates from intrinsic allylic amination to the α-C-H alkylation, enabling the construction of pharmaceutically significant chiral homoallylic amines from readily available primary alkyl amines in a single step.

Towards an Asymmetric Organocatalytic ?-Azidation of ?-Ketoesters.

Project description:Detailed investigations concerning the organocatalytic (asymmetric) ?-azidation of prochiral ?-ketoesters were carried out. It was shown that the racemic version of such a reaction can either be carried out under oxidative conditions using TMSN? as the azide-source with quaternary ammonium iodides as the catalysts, or by using hypervalent iodine-based electrophilic azide-transfer reagents with different organocatalysts. In addition, the latter strategy could also be carried out with modest enantioselectivities when using simple cinchona alkaloid catalysts, albeit with relatively low yields.
