Ir-catalyzed enantioselective B-H alkenylation for asymmetric synthesis of chiral-at-cage o‑carboranes.

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric synthesis of chiral-at-cage o-carboranes, whose chirality is associated with the substitution patterns on the polyhedron, is of great interest as the icosahedral carboranes have wide applications in medicinal and materials chemistry. Herein we report an intermolecular Ir-catalyzed enantioselective B-H alkenylation for efficient and facile synthesis of chiral-at-cage o-carboranes with new skeletons under mild reaction conditions. Generally very good to excellent yields with up to 99% ee can be achieved in this Ir-catalyzed B-H alkenylation. The enantiocontrol model is proposed based on Density Functional Theory calculations in which the use of chiral phosphoramidite ligand is essential for such asymmetric o-carborane B-H alkenylation.

Enantioselective rhodium-catalyzed isomerization of 4-iminocrotonates: asymmetric synthesis of a unique chiral synthon.

Project description:An enantioselective isomerization of 4-iminocrotonates catalyzed by a rhodium(I)/phosphoramidite complex is described. This reaction uses widely available amines to couple with 4-oxocrotonate to provide a convenient access to a central chiral building block in good yield and high enantioselectivity. Although the mechanism of this new transformation remains unclear, both Rh and the phosphoramidite play a central role.

Highly Enantioselective Synthesis of 3,3-Diarylpropyl Amines and 4-Aryl Tetrahydroquinolines via Ir-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation.

Project description:Chiral nitrogen-containing compounds are crucial for the chemical, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical industries. Nevertheless, the synthesis of certain valuable scaffolds remains underdeveloped due to the vast chemical space available. In this work, we present a diastereoselective methodology for synthesizing 3,3-diarylallyl phthalimides, which, following iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation using Ir-UbaPHOX, yield 3,3-diarylpropyl amines with high enantioselectivity (98-99% ee). The importance of alkene purity to achieve high enantioselectivity is discussed. The synthetic utility of the chiral propylamines obtained is demonstrated through the preparation of medicinally useful bioactive compounds like the drugs tolterodine and tolpropamine and 4-aryl tetrahydroquinolines. This strategy enables the synthesis of these compounds with the highest enantioselectivity reported to date.

Highly enantioselective synthesis of both enantiomers of tetrahydroquinoxaline derivatives <i>via</i> Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation.

Project description:A novel Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation protocol for the synthesis of chiral tetrahydroquinoxaline (THQ) derivatives has been developed. By simply adjusting the reaction solvent, both enantiomers of mono-substituted chiral THQs could be selectively obtained in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (toluene/dioxane: up to 93% yield and 98% ee (R); EtOH: up to 83% yield and 93% ee (S)). For 2,3-disubstituted chiral THQs, the cis-hydrogenation products were obtained with up to 95% yield, 20 : 1 dr, and 94% ee. Remarkably, this methodology was also applicable under continuous flow conditions, yielding gram-scale products with comparable yields and enantioselectivities (dioxane: 91% yield and 93% ee (R); EtOH: 90% yield and 87% ee (S)). Unlike previously reported Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation protocols, this system exhibited a significant improvement as it required no additional additives. Furthermore, comprehensive mechanistic studies including deuterium-labeling experiments, control experiments, kinetic studies, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted to reveal the underlying mechanism of enantioselectivities for both enantiomers.

Formation of Chiral Allylic Ethers via an Enantioselective Palladium-Catalyzed Alkenylation of Acyclic Enol Ethers.

Project description:This report details a palladium-catalyzed process to access highly functionalized, optically active allylic aryl ethers. A number of electron-deficient alkenyl triflates underwent enantioselective and site-selective coupling with acyclic aryl enol ethers in the presence of a chiral palladium catalyst. This transform provides chiral allylic ether products in high yields and excellent enantiomeric ratios, furnishing a unique disconnection to incorporate heteroatoms at a stereocenter. Finally, the applicability of the products to target synthesis was demonstrated through the formation of a chiral allylic alcohol and the generation of a flavone-inspired product.

Enantioselective synthesis of anti- and syn-homopropargyl alcohols via chiral Bronsted acid catalyzed asymmetric allenylboration reactions.

Project description:Chiral Brønsted acid catalyzed asymmetric allenylboration reactions are described. Under optimized conditions, anti-homopropargyl alcohols 2 are obtained in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities from stereochemically matched aldehyde allenylboration reactions with (M)-1 catalyzed by the chiral phosphoric acid (S)-4. The syn-isomers 3 can also be obtained in good diastereoselectivities and excellent enantioselectivities from the mismatched allenylboration reactions of aromatic aldehydes using (M)-1 in the presence of the enantiomeric phosphoric acid (R)-4. The stereochemistry of the methyl group introduced into 2 and 3 is controlled by the chirality of the allenylboronate (M)-1, whereas the configuration of the new hydroxyl stereocenter is controlled by the enantioselectivity of the chiral phosphoric acid catalyst used in these reactions. The synthetic utility of this methodology was further demonstrated in highly diastereoselective syntheses of a variety of anti, anti-stereotriads, the direct synthesis of which has constituted a significant challenge using previous generations of aldol and crotylmetal reagents.

Palladium-catalyzed enantioselective alkenylation of alkenylbenzene derivatives.

Project description:A regioselective and enantioselective palladium-catalyzed relay Heck alkenylation of alkenylbenzene derivatives to construct remote stereocenters is disclosed. Various β-substituted styrenes were readily obtained in moderate yields with good to excellent levels of enantioselectivity. This strategy provides rapid access to enantioenriched δ, ε, ζ, and η-alkenyl aryl compounds from simple starting materials. Mechanistic studies suggest that termination of the relay reaction is controlled by affinity of the arene for the Pd complex during migration.

Up to a 22% enhancement in enantioselectivity was achieved by the addition of certain amounts of alkali ions (Li+, Na+ or K+), which could be selectively recognized and effectively complexed by the crown ethers on the chiral Xyl-P16C6-Phos.
