Catalytic enantioselective synthesis of macrodiolides and their application in chiral recognition.

ABSTRACT: New types of C ₂-symmetric chiral macrodiolides are readily obtained via chiral N,N'-dioxide-scandium(iii) complex-promoted asymmetric tandem Friedel-Crafts alkylation/intermolecular macrolactonization of ortho-quinone methides with C3-substituted indoles. This protocol provides an array of enantioenriched macrodiolides with 16, 18 or 20-membered rings in moderate to good yields with high diastereoselectivities and excellent enantioselectivities through adjusting the length of the tether at the C3 position of indoles. Density functional theory calculations indicate that the formation of macrocycles is more favorable than that of 9-membered-ring lactones in terms of kinetics and thermodynamics. The potential utility of these intriguing chiral macrodiolide molecules is demonstrated in the enantiomeric recognition of aminols and chemical recognition of metal ions.

Highly enantioselective catalytic synthesis of chiral pyridines.

Project description:General methods to prepare chiral pyridine derivatives are greatly sought after due to their significance in medicinal chemistry. Here, we report highly enantioselective catalytic transformations of poorly reactive β-substituted alkenyl pyridines to access a wide range of alkylated chiral pyridines. The simple methodology involves reactivity enhancement via Lewis acid (LA) activation, the use of readily available and highly reactive Grignard reagents, and a copper-chiral diphosphine ligand catalyst. Apart from allowing the introduction of different linear, branched, cyclic, and functionalised alkyl chains at the β-position of alkenyl pyridines, the catalytic system also shows high functional group tolerance.

Application of a chiral scaffolding ligand in catalytic enantioselective hydroformylation.

Project description:The synthesis of β-amino-aldehydes has been achieved through enantioselective hydroformylation of PMP-protected allylic amines. The reaction is accomplished by using a scalemic scaffolding ligand that covalently and reversibly binds to the substrate. These ligands behave like chiral auxiliaries because they are covalently attached to the substrate during hydroformylation; however, similar to traditional asymmetric ligands, they can be used in catalytic quantities. The directed hydroformylation of disubstituted olefins occurs under mild conditions (35 °C and 50 psi CO/H(2)), and Z-olefins afford excellent enantioselectivities (up to 93% ee).

Catalytic enantioselective Cr-mediated propargylation: application to halichondrin synthesis.

Project description:A catalytic enantioselective propargylation in the presence of 10 mol % of Cr catalyst prepared from Cr(III) bromide and (R)-sulfonamide E furnishes homopropargyl alcohol 8 in 78% yield with 90% ee. Coupled with the workup based on Amano-lipase, this method provides a practical synthesis of optically pure 8 on a multigram scale. With maintenance of its optical purity, 8 has been converted to 1b, the C14-C19 building block of halichondrins and E7389, in two steps.

Regiodivergent reactions through catalytic enantioselective silylation of chiral diols. Synthesis of sapinofuranone A.

Project description:Through the use of an amino acid based imidazole catalyst, a regiodivergent silylation of chiral diols in cases where there is not a significant steric and electronic difference between the regioisotopic hydroxyl groups has been developed. This transformation allows for the conversion of racemic diols into regioisomeric, enantiomerically enriched, monosilylated products. The utility of this process is highlighted in the efficient enantioselective preparation of a useful synthetic intermediate and the natural product, sapinofuranone A.

Enantioselective recognition at mesoporous chiral metal surfaces.

Project description:Chirality is widespread in natural systems, and artificial reproduction of chiral recognition is a major scientific challenge, especially owing to various potential applications ranging from catalysis to sensing and separation science. In this context, molecular imprinting is a well-known approach for generating materials with enantioselective properties, and it has been successfully employed using polymers. However, it is particularly difficult to synthesize chiral metal matrices by this method. Here we report the fabrication of a chirally imprinted mesoporous metal, obtained by the electrochemical reduction of platinum salts in the presence of a liquid crystal phase and chiral template molecules. The porous platinum retains a chiral character after removal of the template molecules. A matrix obtained in this way exhibits a large active surface area due to its mesoporosity, and also shows a significant discrimination between two enantiomers, when they are probed using such materials as electrodes.

Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of Axially Chiral Diaryl Ethers Via Asymmetric Povarov Reaction Enabled Desymmetrization.

Project description:Axially chiral diaryl ethers represent a distinct class of atropisomers, characterized by a unique dual C─O axes system, which have been found in a variety of natural products, pharmaceuticals, and ligands. However, the catalytic enantioselective synthesis of these atropoisomers poses significant challenges, due to the difficulty in controlling both chiral C─O axes, and their more flexible conformations. Herein, an efficient protocol for catalytic enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral diaryl ethers is presented using organocatalyzed asymmetric Povarov reaction-enabled desymmetrization, followed by aromatizations. This method yields a wide range of novel quinoline-based diaryl ether atropoisomers in good yields and high enantioselectivities. Notably, various aromatization protocols are developed, resulting in a diverse set of polysubstituted quinoline-containing diaryl ether atropisomers. Thermal racemization studies suggested excellent configurational stabilities for these novel diaryl ether atropisomers (with racemization barriers up to 38.1 kcal mol-1). Moreover, this research demonstrates for the first time that diaryl ether atropisomers lacking the bulky t-Bu group can still maintain a stable configuration, challenging the prior knowledge in the field. The fruitful derivatizations of the functional group-rich chiral products further underscore the value of this method.

Regio- and enantioselective catalytic monoepoxidation of conjugated dienes: synthesis of chiral allylic cis-epoxides.

Project description:Ti(IV)-salan 4 catalyzes the diastereo- and enantioselective monoepoxidation of conjugated dienes using 30% H2O2 at rt or below even in the presence of other olefins and adjacent stereocenters. Its enantiomer, ent-4, provides access to the opposite diastereomer or enantiomer. The resultant chiral allylic epoxides, and the triols derived from them, are versatile synthetic intermediates as well as substructures present in many bioactive natural products. The epoxidation is highly specific for Z-olefins. For 1-acyl(silyl)oxypenta-2,4-dienes, epoxidation of the distal olefin is generally favored in contrast to the adjacent regioselectivity characteristic of Sharpless, peracid, and other directed epoxidations of hydroxylated dienes.

Synthesis of Chiral Helic[1]triptycene[3]arenes and Their Enantioselective Recognition Towards Chiral Guests Containing Aminoindan Groups.

Project description:Starting from the enantiopure precursors, a pair of chiral macrocyclic arenes named helic[1]triptycene[3]arenes were conveniently synthesized. The circular dichroism (CD) spectra of the enantiomeric macrocyclic arenes exhibited mirror images, and the X-ray single crystal structures confirmed their absolute conformations as well. Moreover, the macrocyclic arenes showed strong complexation with secondary ammonium and primary ammonium salts containing aminoindan groups. In particular, the chiral macrocyclic arenes exhibited enantioselective recognition ability towards the chiral secondary ammonium salts containing aminoindan groups with an enantioselective ratio up to 3.89.

Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of N-C Axially Chiral N-(2,6-Disubstituted-phenyl)sulfonamides through Chiral Pd-Catalyzed N-Allylation

Project description:Recently, catalytic enantioselective syntheses of N-C axially chiral compounds have been reported by many groups. Most N-C axially chiral compounds prepared through a catalytic asymmetric reaction possess carboxamide or nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocycle skeletons. On the other hand, although N-C axially chiral sulfonamide derivatives are known, their catalytic enantioselective synthesis is relatively underexplored. We found that the reaction (Tsuji–Trost allylation) of allyl acetate with secondary sulfonamides bearing a 2-arylethynyl-6-methylphenyl group on the nitrogen atom proceeds with good enantioselectivity (up to 92% ee) in the presence of (S,S)-Trost ligand-(allyl-PdCl)2 catalyst, affording rotationally stable N-C axially chiral N-allylated sulfonamides. Furthermore, the absolute stereochemistry of the major enantiomer was determined by X-ray single crystal structural analysis and the origin of the enantioselectivity was considered.

Bidentate Chiral Bis(imidazolium)-Based Halogen-Bond Donors: Synthesis and Applications in Enantioselective Recognition and Catalysis.

Project description:Even though halogen bonding-the noncovalent interaction between electrophilic halogen substituents and Lewis bases-has now been established in molecular recognition and catalysis, its use in enantioselective processes is still very rarely explored. Herein, we present the synthesis of chiral bidentate halogen-bond donors based on two iodoimidazolium units with rigidly attached chiral sidearms. With these Lewis acids, chiral recognition of a racemic diamine is achieved in NMR studies. DFT calculations support a 1:1 interaction of the halogen-bond donor with both enantiomers and indicate that the chiral recognition is based on a different spatial orientation of the Lewis bases in the halogen-bonded complexes. In addition, moderate enantioselectivity is achieved in a Mukaiyama aldol reaction with a preorganized variant of the chiral halogen-bond donor. This represents the first case in which asymmetric induction was realized with a pure halogen-bond donor lacking any additional active functional groups.
