Organocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of α-amino esters from sulfoxonium ylides.

ABSTRACT: Described here is the first organocatalytic asymmetric N-H insertion reaction of α-carbonyl sulfoxonium ylides. Without a metal catalyst, this reaction represents an attractive complement to the well-established carbene insertion reactions. As a stable surrogate of diazocarbonyl compounds, sulfoxonium ylides reacted with a range of aryl amines to provide efficient access to α-aryl glycines with excellent enantiocontrol in the presence of a suitable chiral phosphoric acid catalyst. The high stability and weak basicity of sulfoxonium ylides not only enable this protocol to be user-friendly and practically useful, but also preclude catalyst decomposition, which is crucial to the excellent amenability to electron-poor amine nucleophiles. Detailed mechanistic studies indicated that the initial protonation is reversible and the C-N bond formation is rate-determining.

Asymmetric, organocatalytic, three-step synthesis of alpha-hydroxy-(E)-beta,gamma-unsaturated esters.

Project description:An efficient and enantiocontrolled three-step synthesis of alpha-hydroxy-(E)-beta,gamma-unsaturated esters is reported. Enantioenriched alpha-selenyl aldehydes, prepared in one step by asymmetric, organocatalytic alpha-selenylation of aldehydes, were directly subjected to a Wittig reaction followed by allylic selenide to selenoxide oxidation and final spontaneous [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to yield the target compounds in 43-65% overall yield and in 94-97% ee.

Project description:Efficient and enantiocontrolled synthesis of gamma-hydroxy-alpha,beta-unsaturated sulfones and esters are reported through the reaction of enantioenriched alpha-selenyl aldehydes with EWG-stabilized carbanions and then a one-pot selenide oxidation, in situ epoxide formation, and final in situ epoxide opening.

Asymmetric synthesis of anti-β-amino-α-hydroxy esters via dynamic kinetic resolution of β-amino-α-keto esters.

Project description:A method for the asymmetric synthesis of enantioenriched anti-α-hydroxy-β-amino acid derivatives by enantioconvergent reduction of the corresponding racemic α-keto esters is presented. The requisite α-keto esters are prepared via Mannich addition of ethyl diazoacetate to imines followed by oxidation of the diazo group with Oxone. Implementation of a recently developed dynamic kinetic resolution of β-substituted-α-keto esters via Ru(II)-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation provides the title motif in routinely high diastereo- and enantioselectivity.

Synthesis of chiral N-phosphinyl α-imino esters and their application in asymmetric synthesis of α-amino esters by reduction.

Project description:A variety of chiral N-phosphinyl α-imino esters have been synthesized for the first time from ketoesters and phosphinylamide, which were then reduced by L-selectride to give the corresponding N-phosphinyl-protected α-amino esters. The reduction proceeded very well with excellent chemical yields (88-98%) as well as high diastereoselectivities (96:4 to 99:1). Some of these products could be obtained without column chromatography and recrystallization. The chiral phosphinyl auxiliary could be easily cleaved under acidic 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.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Spirocyclopentane Oxindoles Containing Four Consecutive Stereocenters and Quaternary α-Nitro Esters via Organocatalytic Enantioselective Michael-Michael Cascade Reactions.

Project description:An enantioselective domino Michael-Michael reaction of nitroolefins and 2-nitro-3-arylacrylates has been established, which provided a series of spirocyclopentane oxindoles with four consecutive stereocenters including quaternary α-nitro esters with good yields (up to 73%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). The reaction was realized and optimized with the aid of a chiral squaramide-amine catalyst. The structures of 11 products were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

Vinylaluminum addition to sulfinimines (N-sulfinyl imines). Asymmetric synthesis of anti-alpha-alkyl beta-amino esters.

Project description:Addition of vinylaluminum NMO reagents to N-(p-toluenesufinyl)- and N-(2-methypropanesulfinyl)-derived sulfinimines gives N-sulfinyl aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman products (dr = 7:1 to 12:1) that result from addition of the reagent from the least hindered direction. Hydrogenation of the aza-MBH adducts with a Rh(I) catalyst affords anti-alpha-substituted N-sulfinyl-beta-amino esters in good yield and high dr (10:1 to 21:1).

Asymmetric Mannich synthesis of ?-amino esters by anion-binding catalysis.

Project description:We report a scalable, one-pot Mannich route to enantioenriched ?-amino esters by direct reaction of ?-chloroglycine ester as a practical imino ester surrogate. The reaction is promoted by a chiral aminothiourea, which is proposed to operate cooperatively by generating an iminium ion by chloride abstraction and an enolate by deprotonation, followed by highly stereoselective C-C bond formation between both reactive intermediates associated non-covalently within the catalyst framework.

Asymmetric Chemoenzymatic One-Pot Synthesis of α-Hydroxy Half-Esters.

Project description:A new chemoenzymatic one-pot strategy has been developed for the synthesis of α-hydroxy half-esters containing consecutive quaternary and tertiary stereocenters using asymmetric cascade catalysis. In this study, an asymmetric Ca2+-catalyzed [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement reaction was proven to be suitable for a combination with porcine liver esterase-mediated hydrolysis resulting in the enhanced enantiomeric purity of the obtained products in a one-pot synthesis compared to the stepwise method.
