Synthesis of Chiral Bifunctional NHC Ligands and Survey of Their Utilities in Asymmetric Gold Catalysis.

ABSTRACT: The synthesis and characterization of the chiral bifunctional NHC ligands based on the imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine (ImPy) scaffold are described. These ligands possess a fluxional biaryl axis and a chiral center. The configurational stability of the biaryl axis in their gold(I) complexes is investigated. The application of these axially chiral ImPy-based AuCl complexes in a series of gold catalysis is explored, and varying degrees of asymmetric induction are observed. In most cases, the ligand (aS,R)-L8-H with its cyclohexyl group pointing to the reaction site and hence exerting asymmetric steric influence is more effective in asymmetric induction.

Asymmetric intermolecular boron Heck-type reactions via oxidative palladium(II) catalysis with chiral tridentate NHC-amidate-alkoxide ligands.

Project description:Chiral dimeric tridentate NHC-amidate-alkoxide palladium(II) complexes, 3a and 3b, effected oxidative boron Heck-type reactions of aryl boronic acids with both acyclic and cyclic alkenes at room temperature to afford the corresponding coupling products with high enantioselectivities. The high degree of enantioselection, far superior to existing methods, stems from differences in the nonbonding interactions in the proposed transition states, due to the influence from bulky substituents of the alkene substrates and the "counter axial groups" of the palladium(II) catalysts.

Chiral Bifunctional Phosphine Ligand Enabling Gold-Catalyzed Asymmetric Isomerization of Alkyne to Allene and Asymmetric Synthesis of 2,5-Dihydrofuran.

Project description:The asymmetric isomerization of alkyne to allene is the most efficient and the completely atom-economic approach to this class of versatile axial chiral structure. However, the state-of-the-art is limited to tert-butyl alk-3-ynoate substrates that possess requisite acidic propargylic C-H bonds. Reported here is a strategy based on gold catalysis that is enabled by a designed chiral bifunctional biphenyl-2-ylphosphine ligand. It permits isomerization of alkynes with nonacidic α-C-H bonds and hence offers a much-needed general solution. With chiral propargylic alcohols as substrates, 2,5-disubstituted 2,5-dihydrofurans are formed in one step in typically good yields and with good to excellent diastereoselectivities. With achiral substrates, 2,5-dihydrofurans are formed with good to excellent enantiomeric excesses. A novel center-chirality approach is developed to achieve a stereocontrol effect similar to an axial chirality in the designed chiral ligand. The mechanistic studies established that the precatalyst axial epimers are all converted into the catalytically active cationic gold catalyst owing to the fluxional axis of the latter.

Helically chiral polymers: a class of ligands for asymmetric catalysis.

Project description:Helically chiral polymers from achiral monomers containing N and P atoms have been shown to be ligands for transition metals such as Pd and Rh. The Rh complex of the phosphane-containing polyisocyanate p(18-co-17) was an active albeit hardly enantioselective catalyst in the asymmetric hydrogenation of the dehydro amino acid N-acetamidocinnamic acid (15% enantiomeric excess). The most active catalyst obtained until now was the Pd-complexed polymethacrylate Pd-p12, which catalyzes the allylic substitution reaction of 1,3-diphenylprop-2-enyl acetate with dimethyl malonate even at -20 degrees C in quantitative yield, although again the enantioselectivity was unsatisfactory. The most successful application of a helically chiral polymer in asymmetric catalysis with respect to both reactivity and enantioselectivity is the polymethacrylate p(5-co-8). Its palladium complex catalyzes the above-mentioned reaction at 0 degrees C with quantitative yield and 60% enantiomeric excess.

Bifunctional organocatalysts for the asymmetric synthesis of axially chiral benzamides.

Project description:Bifunctional organocatalysts bearing amino and urea functional groups in a chiral molecular skeleton were applied to the enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral benzamides via aromatic electrophilic bromination. The results demonstrate the versatility of bifunctional organocatalysts for the enantioselective construction of axially chiral compounds. Moderate to good enantioselectivities were afforded with a range of benzamide substrates. Mechanistic investigations were also carried out.

Asymmetric Catalysis with Ethylene. Synthesis of Functionalized Chiral Enolates.

Project description:Trialkylsilyl enol ethers are versatile intermediates often used as enolate surrogates for the synthesis of carbonyl compounds. Yet there are no reports of broadly applicable, catalytic methods for the synthesis of chiral silyl enol ethers carrying latent functionalities useful for synthetic operations beyond the many possible reactions of the silyl enol ether moiety itself. Here we report a general procedure for highly catalytic (substrate:catalyst ratio up to 1000:1) and enantioselective (92% to 98% major enantiomer) synthesis of such compounds bearing a vinyl group at a chiral carbon at the ?-position. The reactions, run under ambient conditions, use trialkylsiloxy-1,3-dienes and ethylene (1 atm) as precursors and readily available (bis-phosphine)-cobalt(II) complexes as catalysts. The silyl enolates can be readily converted into novel enantiopure vinyl triflates, a class of highly versatile cross-coupling reagents, enabling the syntheses of other enantiomerically pure, stereodefined trisubstituted alkene intermediates not easily accessible by current methods. Examples of Kumada, Stille, and Suzuki coupling reactions are illustrated.

Asymmetric synthesis of chiral cycloalkenone derivatives <i>via</i> palladium catalysis.

Project description:The palladium-catalyzed oxidative desymmetrization of meso dibenzoates yields γ-benzoyloxy cycloalkenones in good yields and with excellent levels of enantioselectivity. These compounds serve as precursors to a broad range of substituted cycloalkenones, including well-established synthetic building blocks and elaborated cycloalkanone derivatives. The ability to prepare both enantiomers of the oxidative desymmetrization products enables a unified strategy toward stereochemically diverse epoxyquinoid natural products.

Bifunctional phase-transfer catalysis in the asymmetric synthesis of biologically active isoindolinones.

Project description:New bifunctional chiral ammonium salts were investigated in an asymmetric cascade synthesis of a key building block for a variety of biologically relevant isoindolinones. With this chiral compound in hand, the development of further transformations allowed for the synthesis of diverse derivatives of high pharmaceutical value, such as the Belliotti (S)-PD172938 and arylated analogues with hypnotic sedative activity, obtained in good overall total yield (50%) and high enantiomeric purity (95% ee). The synthetic routes developed herein are particularly convenient in comparison with the current methods available in literature and are particularly promising for large scale applications.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Stereogenic Phosphorus P(V) Centers Using Chiral Nucleophilic Catalysis.

Project description:Organophosphates have been widely used in agrochemistry, as reagents for organic synthesis, and in biochemistry. Phosphate mimics possessing four unique substituents, and thereby a chirality center, are useful in transition metal catalysis and as nucleotide therapeutics. The catalytic, stereocontrolled synthesis of phosphorus-stereogenic centers is challenging and traditionally depends on a resolution or use of stochiometric auxiliaries. Herein, enantioenriched phosphorus centers have been synthesized using chiral nucleophilic catalysis. Racemic H-phosphinate species were coupled with nucleophilic alcohols under halogenating conditions. Chiral phosphonate products were synthesized in acceptable yields (33-95%) and modest enantioselectivity (up to 62% ee) was observed after identification of an appropriate chiral catalyst and optimization of the solvent, base, and temperature. Nucleophilic catalysis has a tremendous potential to produce enantioenriched phosphate mimics that could be used as prodrugs or chemical biology probes.

Bifunctional asymmetric catalysis: amplification of Bronsted basicity can orthogonally increase the reactivity of a chiral Bronsted acid.

Project description:The reactivity of a series of symmetrical chiral Brønsted acids (polar ionic hydrogen-bond donors) follows the counterintuitive trend wherein the more Brønsted basic member is a more effective catalyst for the aza-Henry (nitro-Mannich) reaction. This new design element leads to a substantially more reactive catalyst for the aza-Henry reaction, one that can promote the addition of a secondary nitroalkane. Additionally, when an achiral Brønsted acid (TfOH) is used in slight excess of the neutral, chiral bisamidine ligand, diastereoselection can be optimized to levels generally greater than 15:1 while the enantioselection remains unchanged at generally >90% ee.

Synthesis of axially chiral gold complexes and their applications in asymmetric catalyses.

Project description:Several novel chiral N-heterocyclic carbene and phosphine ligands were prepared from (S)-BINOL. Moreover, their ligated Au complexes were also successfully synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystal diffraction. A weak gold-? interaction between the Au atom and the aromatic ring in these gold complexes was identified. Furthermore, we confirmed the formation of a pair of diastereomeric isomers in NHC gold complexes bearing an axially chiral binaphthyl moiety derived from the hindered rotation around C-C and C-N bonds. In the asymmetric intramolecular hydroamination reaction most of these chiral Au(I) complexes showed good catalytic activities towards olefins tethered with a NHTs functional group to give the corresponding product in moderate yields and up to 29% ee.
