Regio- and enantioselective umpolung gem-difluoroallylation of hydrazones via palladium catalysis enabled by N-heterocyclic carbene ligand

ABSTRACT: The enantioselective construction of C–CF2R (R: alkyl or fluoroalkyl) bonds has attracted the attention of synthetic chemists because of the importance of chiral fluorinated compounds in life and materials sciences. Catalytic asymmetric fluoroalkylation has mainly been realized under organocatalysis and Lewis acid catalysis, with substrates limited to carbonyl compounds. Few examples using transition-metal catalysis exist, owing to side reactions including decomposition and isomerization of fluoroalkylating reagents. Herein we report umpolung asymmetric difluoroallylation of hydrazones with 3-bromo-3,3-difluoropropene (BDFP) under palladium catalysis. Difluoroallylation products having quaternary chiral carbon centers are afforded in good yields with high α/γ- and enantioselectivities. The usefulness of the reaction products is demonstrated and an inner-sphere mechanism of the reaction is proposed. The use of chiral N-heterocyclic carbene as ligand is the key for the selectivities as well as the productivity of the reaction. Installation of difluoroalkyl groups while also imparting stereochemical information is mostly only possible with organocatalytic methods that activate carbonyls. Here the authors show a method to perform an difluoroallylation of hydrazones, forming a masked amine stereocenter, via palladium- and N-heterocyclic-carbene catalysis.

A Cooperative N-Heterocyclic Carbene/Palladium Catalysis System.

Project description:N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) have been extensively studied as organocatalysts and ligands for transition metals, but the successful integration of NHCs and late transition metals in cooperative catalysis remains an underexplored area. We have developed a cooperative palladium-catalyzed allylation of NHC-activated aldehydes to access a variety of 3-allyl dihydrocoumarin derivatives. Kinetic experiments support a cooperative pathway for this transformation.

Regio-, Diastereo-, and Enantioselective Decarboxylative Hydroaminoalkylation of Dienol Ethers Enabled by Dual Palladium/Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:Intermolecular photocatalytic hydroaminoalkylation (HAA) of alkenes have emerged as a powerful method for the construction of alkyl amines. Although there are some studies aiming at stereoselective photocatalytic HAA reactions, the alkenes are limited to electrophilic alkenes. Herein, we report a highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective HAA of electron-rich dienol ethers and α-amino radicals derived from α-amino acids using a unified photoredox and palladium catalytic system. This decarboxylative 1,2-Markovnikov addition enables the construction of vicinal amino tertiary ethers with high levels of regio- (up to >19 : 1 rr), diastereo- (up to >19 : 1 dr), and enantioselectivity control (up to >99 % ee). Mechanistic studies support a reversible hydropalladation as a key step.

Enantioselective S<sub>N</sub> 2 Alkylation of Homoenolates by N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalysis.

Project description:The functionalization of the β-carbon of enals with electrophiles is a signature umpolung reactivity of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) derived homoenolates. However, only a limited number of electrophiles are shown to be compatible, with most of them being π-electrophiles. In this study, the successful enantioselective β-alkylation of homoenolates is reported using Csp3 electrophiles through an SN 2 strategy. The protocol shows a broad scope regarding alkyl electrophiles, delivering good yields, and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). It enables the installation of drug-like structural motifs in either enals or alkylating agents, demonstrating its potential as a valuable tool for late-stage modification. Furthermore, a concise synthetic route is presented to chiral pyrroloindoline-type skeletons. Preliminary mechanistic studies support a direct SN 2 mechanism.

Regio- and Enantioselective <i>N</i>-Heterocyclic Carbene-Catalyzed Annulation of Aminoindoles Initiated by Friedel-Crafts Alkylation.

Project description:Chiral indoles annulated on the benzene ring are unique and significant in natural and medicinal compounds. However, accessing these enantioenriched molecules has often been overlooked. The present study introduces an organocatalytic protocol to access these compounds efficiently, demonstrated by substrate scope, functional group tolerance, and using only 1 mol % of a chiral conjugated acid catalyst. Additionally, the study explores regioselectivity, gram-scale reactions, and follow-up transformations, underscoring the method's potential.

Palladium/N-heterocyclic carbene catalysed regio and diastereoselective reaction of ketones with allyl reagents via inner-sphere mechanism.

Project description:The palladium-catalysed allylic substitution reaction is one of the most important reactions in transition-metal catalysis and has been well-studied in the past decades. Most of the reactions proceed through an outer-sphere mechanism, affording linear products when monosubstituted allyl reagents are used. Here, we report an efficient Palladium-catalysed protocol for reactions of ?-substituted ketones with monosubstituted allyl substrates, simply by using N-heterocyclic carbene as ligand, leading to branched products with up to three contiguous stereocentres in a (syn, anti)-mode with excellent regio and diastereoselectivities. The scope of the protocol in organic synthesis has been examined preliminarily. Mechanistic studies by both experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the reaction proceeds via an inner-sphere mechanism-nucleophilic attack of enolate oxygen on Palladium followed by C-C bond-forming [3,3']-reductive elimination.

Aryl radical-mediated N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis.

Project description:There have been significant advancements in radical reactions using organocatalysts in modern organic synthesis. Recently, NHC-catalyzed radical reactions initiated by single electron transfer processes have been actively studied. However, the reported examples have been limited to catalysis mediated by alkyl radicals. In this article, the NHC organocatalysis mediated by aryl radicals has been achieved. The enolate form of the Breslow intermediate derived from an aldehyde and thiazolium-type NHC in the presence of a base undergoes single electron transfer to an aryl iodide, providing an aryl radical. The catalytically generated aryl radical could be exploited as an arylating reagent for radical relay-type arylacylation of styrenes and as a hydrogen atom abstraction reagent for α-amino C(sp3)-H acylation of secondary amides.
