An Aza-Enolate Strategy Enables Iridium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Hydroalkenylations of Minimally Polarized Alkenes en Route to Complex N-Aryl β²-Amino Acids.

ABSTRACT: Cationic Ir(I)-complexes modified with homochiral diphosphines promote the hydroalkenylative cross-coupling of β-(arylamino)acrylates with monosubstituted styrenes and α-olefins. The processes are dependent on the presence of an NH unit, and it is postulated that metalation of this generates an iridium aza-enolate that engages the alkene during the C-C bond forming event. The method offers high branched selectivity and enantioselectivity and occurs with complete atom economy. Diastereocontrolled reduction of the products provides β²-amino acids that possess contiguous stereocenters.

Catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition en route to paxilline indoloterpenoids.

Project description:Development of enantioselective synthesis of precursor en route to paxilline indoloterpenoids is described. Evaluation of 25 diphosphine-based ligands has led to identification of JosiPhos derivative that allows for asymmetric conjugate addition of homoprenyl Grignard reagent to 2-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one in excellent yield and with appreciable levels of enantioinduction. Application to the conjugate addition of other Grignard reagents is demonstrated.

Vancomycin-Iridium (III) Interaction: An Unexplored Route for Enantioselective Imine Reduction.

Project description:The chiral structure of antibiotic vancomycin (Van) was exploited as an innovative coordination sphere for the preparation of an IrCp* based hybrid catalysts. We found that Van is able to coordinate iridium (Ir(III)) and the complexation was demonstrated by several analytical techniques such as MALDI-TOF, UV, Circular dichroism (CD), Raman IR, and NMR. The hybrid system so obtained was employed in the Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation (ATH) of cyclic imines allowing to obtain a valuable 61% e.e. (R) in the asymmetric reduction of quinaldine 2. The catalytic system exhibited a saturation kinetics with a calculated efficiency of Kcat/KM = 0.688 h-1mM-1.

Property-Guided Synthesis of Aza-Tricyclic Indolines: Development of Gold Catalysis En Route.

Project description:Antibiotic resistance is a worldwide public health threat that needs to be addressed by improved antibiotic stewardship and continuing development of new chemical entities to treat resistant bacterial infections. Compounds that work alongside known antibiotics as combination therapies offer an efficient and sustainable approach to counteract antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Guided by property-based analysis, a series of aza-tricyclic indolines (ATIs) were synthesized to optimize their physiochemical properties as novel combination therapies with β-lactams to treat methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) infections. A novel and highly efficient gold-catalyzed tandem cyclization was developed to facilitate the synthesis of these ATIs. One guanidine-containing ATI was discovered to possess both improved anti-MRSA activity and lower mammalian toxicity both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, it also showed significantly enhanced aqueous solubility and metabolic stability. These results indicated that the ATIs are a novel class of anti-MRSA agents suitable for further evaluations as adjuvant therapy in animal model studies.

Iridium-catalyzed enantioselective olefinic C(sp<sup>2</sup>)-H allylic alkylation.

Project description:The first iridium-catalyzed enantioselective olefinic C(sp2)-H allylic alkylation is developed in cooperation with Lewis base catalysis. This reaction, catalyzed by cinchonidine and an in situ generated cyclometalated Ir(i)/phosphoramidite complex, makes use of the latent enolate character of an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, namely coumalate ester, to introduce an allyl group at its α-position in a branched-selective manner in moderate to good yield with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98 : 2 er).

Highly Enantioselective Iridium(I)-Catalyzed Hydrocarbonation of Alkenes: A Versatile Approach to Heterocyclic Systems Bearing Quaternary Stereocenters.

Project description:We report a versatile, highly enantioselective intramolecular hydrocarbonation reaction that provides a direct access to heteropolycyclic systems bearing chiral quaternary carbon stereocenters. The method, which relies on an iridium(I)/bisphosphine chiral catalyst, is particularly efficient for the synthesis of five-, six- and seven-membered fused indole and pyrrole products, bearing one and two stereocenters, with enantiomeric excesses of up to >99 %. DFT computational studies allowed to obtain a detailed mechanistic profile and identify a cluster of weak non-covalent interactions as key factors to control the enantioselectivity.

Substituted Imidazoline Synthesis: A Diastereo- and Enantioselective aza-Henry Route to a Human Proteasome Modulator.

Project description:The first enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of Tepe's human proteasome modulator is described. Routes to this and other highly substituted chiral imidazolines generally produce racemic material. Key to the route disclosed here is a gram-scale anti-selective aza-Henry reaction of an α-alkyl α-nitro ester nucleophile, catalyzed by a Bis(Amidine) [BAM] chiral proton complex, delivering the key intermediate in high yield as a single stereoisomer. The adduct is reduced to the amino ester and converted to an imidazoline.

Enantioselective dearomatization of isoquinolines by anion-binding catalysis en route to cyclic α-aminophosphonates.

Project description:An enantioselective dearomatization of isoquinolines has been developed using chiral anion-binding catalysis. This transformation, catalyzed by a simple and easy to prepare tert-leucine-based thiourea derivative, makes use of silyl phosphite as a nucleophile and generates cyclic α-aminophosphonates. This is the first time asymmetric anion-binding catalysis has been applied to the synthesis of α-aminophosphonates.

Enantioselective Hydrocarbamoylation of Alkenes.

Project description:The asymmetric hydroaminocarbonylation of olefins represents a straightforward approach for the synthesis of enantioenriched amides, but is hampered by the necessity to employ CO gas, often at elevated pressures. We herein describe, as an alternative, an enantioselective hydrocarbamoylation of alkenes leveraging dual copper hydride and palladium catalysis to enable the use of readily available carbamoyl chlorides as a practical carbamoylating reagent. The protocol is applicable to various types of olefins, including alkenyl arenes, terminal alkenes, and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. Substrates containing a diverse range of functional groups as well as heterocyclic substructures undergo functionalization to provide α- and β-chiral amides in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities.

Enantioselective, iridium-catalyzed monoallylation of ammonia.

Project description:Highly enantioselective, iridium-catalyzed monoallylations of ammonia are reported. These reactions occur with electron-neutral, -rich, and -poor cinnamyl carbonates, alkyl and trityloxy-substituted allylic carbonates, and dienyl carbonates in moderate to good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. This process is enabled by the use of an iridium catalyst that does not require a Lewis acid for activation and that is stable toward a large excess of ammonia. This selective formation of primary allylic amines allows for one-pot syntheses of heterodiallylamines and allylic amides that are not otherwise accessible via iridium-catalyzed allylic amination without the use of blocking groups and protective group manipulations.

Enantioselective hydroamination of unactivated terminal alkenes.

Project description:Asymmetric alkene hydroamination could be a direct route to valuable chiral amines from abundant feedstocks. However, most asymmetric hydroaminations have limited synthetic value because they require a large excess of alkene, occur with modest enantioselectivity, and proceed with limited tolerance of functional groups. We report an enantioselective, intermolecular hydroamination of unactivated terminal alkenes that occurs with equimolar amounts of alkene and amine, tolerates many functional groups, and occurs in high yield, with high enantioselectivity and turnover numbers. Mechanistic studies revealed factors, including reversibility of the addition, reversible oxidation of the product amine, competing isomerization of the alkene reactant, and unfavorable replacement of sacrificial ligands in standard catalyst precursors by the chiral bisphosphine, that needed to be addressed to achieve enantioselective N-H additions to alkenes.
