Asymmetric Cyclopropanation and Epoxidation via a Catalytically Formed Chiral Auxiliary.

ABSTRACT: For the enantioselective diversification of a single starting material, a different chiral catalyst is usually required for each transformation. Herein, we extend the concept of catalytically formed chiral auxiliary from hydrogenation to the asymmetric cyclopropanation and epoxidation of tetra-substituted olefins, alleviating the need for different chiral catalysts in the alkene functionalization step. The chiral auxiliary is catalytically constructed from propargylic amines in a Pd-catalyzed enantioselective carboetherification step using a commercially available trifluoroacetaldehyde hemiacetal tether. The installed auxiliary is then controlling the stereochemistry of the cyclopropanation and the epoxidation using standard highly reactive reagents to give enantioenriched spirocyclic aminomethylcyclopropanols and α-amino-α-hydroxy ketones.

Enantioselective Carboetherification/Hydrogenation for the Synthesis of Amino Alcohols via a Catalytically Formed Chiral Auxiliary.

Project description:Chiral auxiliaries and asymmetric catalysis are the workhorses of enantioselective transformations, but they still remain limited in terms of either efficiency or generality. Herein, we present an alternative strategy for controlling the stereoselectivity of chemical reactions. Asymmetric catalysis is used to install a transient chiral auxiliary starting from achiral precursors, which then directs diastereoselective reactions. We apply this strategy to a palladium-catalyzed carboetherification/hydrogenation sequence on propargylic amines, providing fast access to enantioenriched chiral amino alcohols, important building blocks for medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. All stereoisomers of the product could be accessed by the choice of ligand and substituent on the propargylic amine, leading to a stereodivergent process.

Asymmetric cyclopropanation of chalcones using chiral phase-transfer catalysts.

Project description:The first phase-transfer catalyzed cyclopropanation reaction of chalcones using bromomalonates as the nucleophiles in a Michael Initiated Ring Closing reaction (MIRC) was developed. Key to success was the use of a free OH-containing cinchona alkaloid ammonium salt catalyst and carefully optimized liquid/liquid reaction conditions. The reaction performed well for electron neutral and electron deficient chalcones giving the products in yields up to 98% and with enantiomeric ratios up to 91:9.

Asymmetric induction in 8? electrocyclizations. Design of a removable chiral auxiliary.

Project description:The pseudo C(2) symmetric trans diphenyl oxazoline group acts as an effective chiral auxiliary in the 8?, 6? tandem electrocyclization of a substituted tetraene 1-carboxylic acid. Assignment of absolute stereochemistry to the [4.2.0] bicyclooctadiene product supports a model in which both s-cis and s-trans conformations favor the transition states with the same helical twist. This assignment prefaces the development of analogs of SNF4435 C and D. These natural products demonstrate activity as androgen receptor antagonists and as multidrug resistance (mdr) reversal agents.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Spirooxindoles via Nucleophilic Epoxidation Promoted by Bifunctional Organocatalysts.

Project description:Taking into account the postulated reaction mechanism for the organocatalytic epoxidation of electron-poor olefins developed by our laboratory, we have investigated the key factors able to positively influence the H-bond network installed inside the substrate/catalyst/oxidizing agent. With this aim, we have: (i) tested a few catalysts displaying various effects that noticeably differ in terms of steric hindrance and electron demand; (ii) employed ?-alkylidene oxindoles decorated with different substituents on the aromatic ring (11a-g), the exocylic double bond (11h-l), and the amide moiety (11m-v). The observed results suggest that the modification of the electron-withdrawing group (EWG) weakly conditions the overall outcomes, and conversely a strong influence is unambiguously ascribable to either the N-protected or N-unprotected lactam framework. Specifically, when the NH free substrates (11m-u) are employed, an inversion of the stereochemical control is observed, while the introduction of a Boc protecting group affords the desired product 12v in excellent enantioselectivity (97:3 er).

Oligomeric (Salen)Mn(III) Complexes Featuring Tartrate Linkers Immobilized over Layered Double Hydroxide for Catalytically Asymmetric Epoxidation of Unfunctionalized Olefins.

Project description:A series of oligomeric (salen)Mn(III) complexes featuring tartrate linkers were prepared and immobilized over layered double hydroxide, and then used as catalysts for asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins. Comprehensive characterizations including 1H NMR, FT-IR, UV-Vis, elemental analysis, GPC, and ICP-AES were used to illustrate structures of oligomeric (salen)Mn(III) complexes, while powdered XRD, nitrogen physisorption, together with XPS studies provided further details to detect structures of heterogeneous catalysts. Interestingly, scanning electron microscopy found an interesting morphology change during modification of layered supporting material. Catalytic experiments indicated that configuration of major epoxide products was determined by salen chirality more than that of tartrate linker, but enantioselectivity (e.e. values) could be enhanced when tartrate and salen showed identical chiral configurations. Furthermore, the (R,R)-salen moieties linked with (R,R)-tartrate spacers usually offered higher enantioselectivity compared to other combinations. Lastly, Zn(II)/Al(III) layered double hydroxide played as a rigid supporting material in catalysis, showing positive chiral induction and high recycling potential in catalytic reactions.

In situ formation of catalytically active graphene in ethylene photo-epoxidation.

Project description:Ethylene epoxidation is used to produce 2?×?107 ton per year of ethylene oxide, a major feedstock for commodity chemicals and plastics. While high pressures and temperatures are required for the reaction, plasmonic photoexcitation of the Ag catalyst enables epoxidation at near-ambient conditions. Here, we use surface-enhanced Raman scattering to monitor the plasmon excitation-assisted reaction on individual sites of a Ag nanoparticle catalyst. We uncover an unconventional mechanism, wherein the primary step is the photosynthesis of graphene on the Ag surface. Epoxidation of ethylene is then promoted by this photogenerated graphene. Density functional theory simulations point to edge defects on the graphene as the sites for epoxidation. Guided by this insight, we synthesize a composite graphene/Ag/?-Al2O3 catalyst, which accomplishes ethylene photo-epoxidation under ambient conditions at which the conventional Ag/?-Al2O3 catalyst shows negligible activity. Our finding of in situ photogeneration of catalytically active graphene may apply to other photocatalytic hydrocarbon transformations.
