Highly Enantioselective Epoxidation of ?,?-Unsaturated Ketones Using Amide-Based Cinchona Alkaloids as Hybrid Phase-Transfer Catalysts.

ABSTRACT: A series of 20 one chiral epoxides were obtained with excellent yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) using hybrid amide-based Cinchona alkaloids. Our method is characterized by low catalyst loading (0.5 mol %) and short reaction times. Moreover, the epoxidation process can be carried out in 10 cycles, without further catalyst addition to the reaction mixture. This methodology significantly enhance the scale of the process using very low catalyst loading.

Cinchona alkaloid catalyzed enantioselective amination of ?,?-unsaturated ketones: an asymmetric approach to ?2-pyrazolines.

Project description:?2-Pyrazolines are of significant medicinal and synthetic interest due to their therapeutic properties and utility in the synthesis of 1,3-diamines, yet few asymmetric methods exist to prepare them. An unprecedented highly enantioselective organocatalytic synthesis of 2-pyrazolines was achieved through an asymmetric conjugate addition catalyzed by 9-epi-amino cinchona alkaloids followed by deprotection-cyclization, which furnished chiral 2-pyrazolines in 46-78% yield and 59-91% ee. This bifunctional catalytic methodology thus provides easy access to considerable range of optically active 3,5-dialkyl 2-pyrazolines.

Enantioselective nitroaldol reaction of alpha-ketoesters catalyzed by cinchona alkaloids.

Project description:The development of highly enantioselective and general catalytic nitroaldol (Henry) reactions with ketones is a challenging yet desirable task in organic synthesis. In this communication, we report an asymmetric nitroaldol reaction with alpha-ketoesters catalyzed by a new C6'-OH cinchona alkaloid catalyst. This is the first highly efficient organocatalytic asymmetric Henry reaction with ketones. This reaction is operationally simple and affords high enantioselectivity as well as good to excellent yield for a broad range of alpha-ketoesters.

Catalytic enantioselective peroxidation of alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones.

Project description:Despite the potential of chiral peroxides as biologically interesting or even clinically important compounds, no catalytic enantioselective peroxidation has been reported. With a chiral catalyst not only to induce enantioselectivity but also to convert a well established epoxidation pathway into a peroxidation pathway, the first efficient catalytic peroxidation has been successfully developed. Employing readily available alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones and hydroperoxides and an easily accessible cinchona alkaloid catalyst, this novel reaction will open new possibilities in the asymmetric synthesis of chiral peroxides. Under different conditions a highly enantioselective epoxidation with the same starting materials, reagents, and catalyst has was also established.

Combinatorial evolution of site- and enantioselective catalysts for polyene epoxidation.

Project description:Selectivity in the catalytic functionalization of complex molecules is a major challenge in chemical synthesis. The problem is magnified when there are several possible stereochemical outcomes and when similar functional groups occur repeatedly within the same molecule. Selective polyene oxidation provides an archetypical example of this challenge. Historically, enzymatic catalysis has provided the only precedents. Although non-enzymatic catalysts that meet some of these challenges became known, a comprehensive solution has remained elusive. Here, we describe low molecular weight peptide-based catalysts, discovered through a combinatorial synthesis and screening protocol, that exhibit site- and enantioselective oxidation of certain positions of various isoprenols. This diversity-based approach, which exhibits features reminiscent of the directed evolution of enzymes, delivers catalysts that compare favourably to the state-of-the-art for the asymmetric oxidation of these compounds. Moreover, the approach culminated in catalysts that exhibit alternative-site selectivity in comparison to oxidation catalysts previously described.

Enantioselective, organocatalytic reduction of ketones using bifunctional thiourea-amine catalysts.

Project description:Prochiral ketones are reduced to enantioenriched, secondary alcohols using catecholborane and a family of air-stable, bifunctional thiourea-amine organocatalysts. Asymmetric induction is proposed to arise from the in situ complexation between the borane and chiral thiourea-amine organocatalyst resulting in a stereochemically biased boronate-amine complex. The hydride in the complex is endowed with enhanced nucleophilicity while the thiourea concomitantly embraces and activates the carbonyl.

Iridium-catalyzed enantioselective allylic substitution of unstabilized enolates derived from ?,?-unsaturated ketones.

Project description:We report Ir-catalyzed, enantioselective allylic substitution reactions of unstabilized silyl enolates derived from ?,?-unsaturated ketones. Asymmetric allylic substitution of a variety of allylic carbonates with silyl enolates gave allylated products in 62-94% yield with 90-98% ee and >20:1 branched-to-linear selectivity. The synthetic utility of this method was illustrated by the short synthesis of an anticancer agent, TEI-9826.

Electronically Activated Organoboron Catalysts for Enantioselective Propargyl Addition to Trifluoromethyl Ketones.

Project description:A broadly applicable, practical, scalable, efficient and highly ?- and enantioselective method for addition of a silyl-protected propargyl moiety to trifluoromethyl ketones has been developed. Reactions, promoted by 2.0?mol?% of a catalyst that is derived in situ from a readily accessible aminophenol compound at ambient temperature, were complete after only 15?minutes at room temperature. The desired tertiary alcohols were isolated in up to 97?% yield and 98.5:1.5 enantiomeric ratio. Alkyl-, alkenyl-, alkynyl-, aryl- or heteroaryl-substituted trifluoromethyl ketones can be used. Utility is highlighted by application to a transformation that is relevant to enantioselective synthesis of BI 653048, a compound active against rheumatoid arthritis.

Project description:An ef?cient one-pot synthesis of novel ?-amino acid derivatives containing a thiadiazole moiety was developed using a chiral squaramide cinchona alkaloid as organocatalyst. The reactions afforded chiral ?-amino acid derivatives in moderate yields and with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities.
