Mechanism and selectivity of cinchona alkaloid catalyzed [1,3]-shifts of allylic trichloroacetimidates.

ABSTRACT: Density functional theory calculations were used to investigate the [3,3]- and [1,3]-shifts of O-allylic trichloroacetimidates in the presence of cinchona alkaloids. Thermal [1,3]- and [3,3]-rearrangements proceed through concerted pseudopericyclic transition states to give the corresponding rearranged products. [1,3]-Rearrangement is catalyzed via a double S(N)2' mechanism in which syn addition of the nucleophile is exclusively preferred in both steps. The catalyzed mechanism is favored by a 6.3 kcal/mol free energy difference compared to the alternative [3,3]-rearrangement pathway. The fast-reacting enantiomer is predicted to be determined by the availability of the H-bonding interaction between the catalyst and the substrate.

Mild Epoxidation of Allylic Alcohols Catalyzed by Titanium(III) Complexes: Selectivity and Mechanism.

Project description:A novel methodology for the epoxidation of a broad range of primary, secondary, and tertiary allylic alcohols is described using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as oxidant and Ti(III) species generated by reduction of Ti(IV) complexes, with manganese (0) in 1,4-dioxane under mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded with wide substrate scope and high chemo- and diastereoselectivity. A mechanistic pathway for the reaction is also discussed.

Hydroamination versus Allylic Amination in Iridium-Catalyzed Reactions of Allylic Acetates with Amines: 1,3-Aminoalcohols via Ester-Directed Regioselectivity.

Project description:In the presence of a neutral dppf-modified iridium catalyst and Cs2CO3, linear allylic acetates react with primary amines to form products of hydroamination with complete 1,3-regioselectivity. The collective data, including deuterium labeling studies, corroborate a catalytic mechanism involving rapid, reversible acetate-directed aminoiridation with inner-sphere/outer-sphere crossover followed by turnover-limiting proto-demetalation mediated by amine.

Mechanism of the cobalt oxazoline palladacycle (COP)-catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of allylic esters.

Project description:The catalytic enantioselective S(N)2' displacement of (Z)-allylic trichloroacetimidates catalyzed by the palladium(II) complex [COP-OAc](2) is a broadly useful method for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral branched allylic esters. A variety of experiments aimed at elucidating the nature of the catalytic mechanism and its rate- and enantiodetermining steps are reported. Key findings include the following: (a) the demonstration that a variety of bridged-dipalladium complexes are present and constitute resting states of the COP catalyst (however, monomeric palladium(II) complexes are likely involved in the catalytic cycle); (b) labeling experiments establishing that the reaction proceeds in an overall antarafacial fashion; (c) secondary deuterium kinetic isotope effects that suggest substantial rehybridization at both C1 and C3 in the rate-limiting step; and (d) DFT computational studies (B3-LYP/def2-TZVP) that provide evidence for bidentate substrate-bound intermediates and an anti-oxypalladation/syn-deoxypalladation pathway. These results are consistent with a novel mechanism in which chelation of the imidate nitrogen to form a cationic palladium(II) intermediate activates the alkene for attack by external carboxylate in the enantiodetermining step. Computational modeling of the transition-state structure for the acyloxy palladation step provides a model for enantioinduction.

Understanding the mechanism of Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution of the cyclic difluorinated carbonates.

Project description:We present a mechanistic investigation of Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution of cyclic gem-difluorinated carbonates 1 and 4, previously employed in the synthesis of 3',3'-difluoro-2'-hydroxymethyl-4',5'-unsaturated carbocyclic nucleosides in 17 steps. The substitution features a reversal of regioselectivity caused by fluorine.

Mechanism and Selectivity in the Pd-Catalyzed Difunctionalization of Isoprene.

Project description:The three-component coupling of isoprene, an alkenyl triflate, and styrenylboronic acid catalyzed by a palladium pyrox complex affords access to skipped dienes from simple chemical feedstocks. Unfortunately, the transformation proceeds with only moderate selectivity and yields. The reaction mechanism and factors responsible for the resulting regioselectivity were elucidated using M06/SDD/6-311++G(d,p) + SMD calculations. Distortion of the palladium coordination sphere in the transition structure of the migratory insertion step is found to control the 4,1- vs 1,x-selectivity. The calculated ??G? of 1.0 kcal/mol for this step is in excellent agreement with the experimentally observed selectivity of 1:9.9 disfavoring the 4,1-product. The transmetalation was found to be the regioselectivity determining step for the formation of the 1,2- vs 1,4-addition products. Systematic conformational searches for the transmetalation transition structure revealed a series of steric interactions between the t-Bu substituent on the ligand and the substrates in the model system that are balanced by additional repulsive interactions between the substrates and the pyridyl portion of the ligand. The combination of these effects leads to the low to moderate 1,2- vs 1,4-selectivity in the experimentally studied system.

Iridium-Catalyzed Regio- and Enantioselective Allylic Substitution of Trisubstituted Allylic Electrophiles.

Project description:The first Ir-catalyzed enantioselective allylation of trisubstituted allylic electrophiles has been developed. Through modification of the leaving group of allylic electrophiles, we found that trisubstituted allylic phosphates are suitable electrophiles for asymmetric allylation. The reaction of allylic phosphates with enol silanes derived from dioxinones gave allylated products in good yields with high enantioselectivities.

Nickel-catalyzed enantioselective allylic alkylation of lactones and lactams with unactivated allylic alcohols.

Project description:The first nickel-catalyzed enantioselective allylic alkylation of lactone and lactam substrates to deliver products bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter is reported. The reaction, which utilizes a commercially available chiral bisphosphine ligand, proceeds in good yield with a high level of enantioselectivity (up to 90% ee) on a range of unactivated allylic alcohols for both lactone and lactam nucleophiles. The utility of this method is further highlighted via a number of synthetically useful product transformations.

CuH-Catalyzed Enantioselective Ketone Allylation with 1,3-Dienes: Scope, Mechanism, and Applications.

Project description:Chiral tertiary alcohols are important building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceutical agents and biologically active natural products. The addition of carbon nucleophiles to ketones is the most common approach to tertiary alcohol synthesis but traditionally relies on stoichiometric organometallic reagents that are difficult to prepare, sensitive, and uneconomical. We describe a mild and efficient method for the copper-catalyzed allylation of ketones using widely available 1,3-dienes as allylmetal surrogates. Homoallylic alcohols bearing a wide range of functional groups are obtained in high yield and with good regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity. Mechanistic investigations using density functional theory (DFT) implicate the in situ formation of a rapidly equilibrating mixture of isomeric copper(I) allyl complexes, from which Curtin-Hammett kinetics determine the major isomer of the product. A stereochemical model is provided to explain the high diastereo- and enantioselectivity of this process. Finally, this method was applied to the preparation of an important drug, ( R)-procyclidine, and a key intermediate in the synthesis of several pharmaceuticals.

Regio- and stereoselective Ni-catalyzed 1,4-hydroboration of 1,3-dienes: access to stereodefined (Z)-allylboron reagents and derived allylic alcohols.

Project description:A catalytic regio- and stereoselective 1,4-hydroboration of 1,3-dienes was accomplished with pinacolborane in the presence of Ni(cod)(2) and PCy(3). This reaction exhibits broad substrate scope operating on a range of substituted dienes and occurs with generally high levels of selectivity and efficiency. Reactivity patterns suggest that the reactive conformation of the diene is the S-cis form. The intermediate allylboronate can be oxidized to stereodefined allylic alcohols or can be used in stereoselective carbonyl addition reactions.
