GPhos Ligand Enables Production of Chiral N-Arylamines in a Telescoped Transaminase-Buchwald-Hartwig Amination Cascade in the Presence of Excess Amine Donor.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The combination of biocatalysis and chemocatalysis can be more powerful than either technique alone. However, combining the two is challenging due to typically very different reaction conditions. Herein, chiral N-aryl amines, key features of many active pharmaceutical ingredients, are accessed in excellent enantioselectivity (typically>99.5 % ee) by combining transaminases with the Buchwald-Hartwig amination. By employing a bi-phasic buffer-toluene system as well as the ligand GPhos, the telescoped cascade proceeded with up to 89 % overall conversion in the presence of excess alanine. No coupling to alanine was observed.
