Synthesis of Atropisomeric Two-Axis Systems by the Catalyst-Controlled syn- and anti-Selective Arene-Forming Aldol Condensation.

ABSTRACT: Simultaneous control over the configuration of multiple stereocenters is accomplished by numerous catalytic methods, providing a reliable basis for the synthesis of stereochemically complex targets in isomerically defined form. In contrast, addressing the configurations of multiple stereogenic axes with diastereodivergent catalyst control is thus far only possible by stepwise approaches. Herein we now describe that all four stereoisomers of atropisomeric two-axis systems are directly tractable by assembling a central aromatic unit of teraryls through an arene-forming aldol condensation. By using cinchona alkaloid-based ion-pairing catalysts, the four feasible reaction pathways are differentiated from identical substrates under defined basic conditions without preactivation, thus enabling complete stereodivergence with enantioselectivities of up to 99 : 1 e.r.

Catalyst-Controlled Stereodivergent Synthesis of Atropisomeric Multiaxis Systems.

Project description:Molecular scaffolds with multiple rotationally restricted bonds allow a precise spatial positioning of functional groups. However, their synthesis requires methods addressing the configuration of each stereogenic axis. We report here a catalyst-stereocontrolled synthesis of atropisomeric multiaxis systems enabling divergence from the prevailing stereochemical reaction path. By using ion-pairing catalysts in arene-forming aldol condensations, a strong substrate-induced stereopreference can be overcome to provide structurally well-defined helical oligo-1,2-naphthylenes. The configuration of up to four stereogenic axes was individually catalyst-controlled, affording quinquenaphthalenes with a unique topology.

Synthesis of β-hydroxy-α-haloesters through super silyl ester directed syn-selective aldol reaction.

Project description:Super silyl haloesters including chloro- and bromoacetate were synthesized and utilized for aldol reactions to give syn-β-hydroxy-α-haloacetates in good yields with high diastereoselectivities. β-Hydroxy-α-fluoroacetate was obtained by lithiation of super silyl bromofluoroacetate. Sequential Darzens reactions provided cis-glycidic esters in moderate yields.

Syn-selective silicon Mukaiyama-type aldol reactions of (pentafluoro-λ6-sulfanyl)acetic acid esters with aldehydes.

Project description:Aldol reactions belong to the most frequently used C-C bond forming transformations utilized particularly for the construction of complex structures. The selectivity of these reactions depends on the geometry of the intermediate enolates. Here, we have reacted octyl pentafluoro-λ6-sulfanylacetate with substituted benzaldehydes and acetaldehyde under the conditions of the silicon-mediated Mukaiyama aldol reaction. The transformations proceeded with high diastereoselectivity. In case of benzaldehydes with electron-withdrawing substituents in the para-position, syn-α-SF5-β-hydroxyalkanoic acid esters were produced. The reaction was also successful with meta-substituted benzaldehydes and o-fluorobenzaldehyde. In contrast, p-methyl-, p-methoxy-, and p-ethoxybenzaldehydes led selectively to aldol condensation products with (E)-configured double bonds in 30-40% yields. In preliminary experiments with an SF5-substituted acetic acid morpholide and p-nitrobenzaldehyde, a low amount of an aldol product was formed under similar conditions.

Polymer-Supported Poly(Ethylene Glycol) as a Phase-Transfer Catalyst for Cross-Aldol Condensation of Isobutyroaldehyde and Formaldehyde.

Project description:Immobilized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 600-PS) was used as an effective phase-transfer catalyst for the synthesis of hydroxypivaldehyde from isobutyraldehyde (IBA) and formaldehyde in the presence of an inorganic base. Studies on the influence of the parameters on the course of the reaction in a batch reactor showed that the use of the PEG 600-PS catalyst allowed one to obtain HPA with high efficiency (IBA conversion >96%, selectivity >98%) in a relatively short time and under mild conditions (2 h, 40 °C). The developed method enables easy separation of the post-reaction mixture by simple phase separation, and the immobilized catalyst can be separated by filtration and then used five times without a loss in its activity. The high activity and stability of the catalyst was also confirmed in a test carried out in a flow reactor.

Atroposelective Arene-Forming Alkene Metathesis.

Project description:Alkene metathesis catalyzed by enantiopure metal alkylidene complexes enables exceptionally versatile strategies to products with configurationally-defined stereocenters. Desymmetrization processes thereby provide reliable stereoselective routes to aliphatic structures, while the differentiation of aromatic stereogenic units remained an outstanding challenge. Herein, we describe the feasibility of alkene metathesis to catalytically control stereogenic axes by traceless arene formation. Stereodynamic trienes are selectively converted into corresponding binaphthalene atropisomers upon exposure to a chiral molybdenum catalyst. Remarkably, stereoselective arene-forming metathesis allows enantioselectivities of up to 98 : 2 e.r. and excellent yields. As the disconnection of each bond of an aromatic target is retrosynthetically conceivable, it is anticipated that forging arenes by means of stereoselective metathesis will enable versatile approaches for the synthesis of a broad range of molecular topologies with precisely defined configuration.

syn-Selective Epoxidation of Chiral Terminal Allylic Alcohols with a Titanium Salalen Catalyst and Hydrogen Peroxide.

Project description:In the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of chiral secondary allylic alcohols, one substrate enantiomer is predominantly converted to the anti-epoxy alcohol. We herein report the first highly syn-selective epoxidation of terminal allylic alcohols using a titanium salalen complex as catalyst, at room temperature, and aqueous hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. With enantiopure terminal allylic alcohols as substrates, the epoxy alcohols were obtained with up to 98 % yield and up to >99 : 1 dr (syn). Catalyst loadings as low as 1 mol % can be applied without eroding the syn-diastereoselectivity. Modification of the allylic alcohol to an ether does not affect the diastereoselectivity either [>99 : 1 dr (syn)]. Inverting the catalyst configuration leads to the anti-product, albeit at lower dr (ca. 20 : 1). The synthetic potential is demonstrated by a short, gram-scale preparation of a tetrahydrofuran building block with three stereocenters, involving two titanium salalen catalyzed epoxidation steps.

Vinylene-Linked Covalent Organic Frameworks by Base-Catalyzed Aldol Condensation.

Project description:Two 2D covalent organic frameworks (COFs) linked by vinylene (-CH=CH-) groups (V-COF-1 and V-COF-2) are synthesized by exploiting the electron deficient nature of the aromatic s-triazine unit of C3 -symmetric 2,4,6-trimethyl-s-triazine (TMT). The acidic terminal methyl hydrogens of TMT can easily be abstracted by a base, resulting in a stabilized carbanion, which further undergoes aldol condensation with multitopic aryl aldehydes to be reticulated into extended crystalline frameworks (V-COFs). Both V-COF-1 (with terepthalaldehyde (TA)) and V-COF-2 (with 1,3,5-tris(p-formylphenyl)benzene (TFPB)) are polycrystalline and exhibit permanent porosity and BET surface areas of 1341 m2 g-1 and 627 m2 g-1 , respectively. Owing to the close proximity (3.52 Å) of the pre-organized vinylene linkages within adjacent 2D layers stacked in eclipsed fashion, [2+2] photo-cycloadditon in V-COF-1 formed covalent crosslinks between the COF layers.

Five-membered ring annelation in [2.2]paracyclophanes by aldol condensation.

Project description:Under basic conditions 4,5,12,13-tetraacetyl[2.2]paracyclophane (9) cyclizes by a double aldol condensation to provide the two aldols 12 and 15 in a 3:7 ratio. The structures of these compounds were obtained from X-ray structural analysis, spectroscopic data, and mechanistic considerations. On acid treatment 12 is dehydrated to a mixture of the condensed five-membered [2.2]paracyclophane derivatives 18-20, whereas 15 yields a mixture of the isomeric cyclopentadienones 21-23. The structures of these elimination products are also deduced from X-ray and spectroscopic data. The sequence presented here constitutes the simplest route so far to cyclophanes carrying an annelated five-membered ring.

Highly Anti-Markovnikov Selective Oxidative Arene Alkenylation Using Ir(I) Catalyst Precursors and Cu(II) Carboxylates.

Project description:The Ir(I) complex [Ir(μ-Cl)(coe)2]2 (coe = cis-cyclooctene) is a catalyst precursor for benzene alkenylation using Cu(II) carboxylate salts. Using [Ir(μ-Cl)(coe)2]2, propenylbenzenes are formed from the reaction of benzene, propylene, and CuX2 (X = acetate, pivalate, or 2-ethylhexanoate). The Ir-catalyzed reactions selectively produce anti-Markovnikov products, trans-β-methylstyrene, cis-β-methylstyrene, and allylbenzene, along with minor amounts of the Markovnikov product, α-methylstyrene. The selectivity for the anti-Markovnikov products changed as the reaction progressed. For example, in a reaction that uses 240 equiv of Cu(OHex)2 (related to Ir), the selectivity for the anti-Markovnikov products increases from 18:1 at 3 h to 42:1 at 42 h with 30 psig of propylene at 150 °C. Studies of product stability have revealed that the increase in the selectivity for anti-Markovnikov products is not the result of an isomerization process or the selective decomposition of specific products. Rather, the change in selectivity correlates with the ratio of Cu(II) to Cu(I) in the solution, which decreases as the reaction progresses. We propose that the identity of the active catalyst changes as Cu(I) is accumulated, resulting in the formation of an active catalyst that is more selective for anti-Markovnikov products. Using a 4:1 Cu(I)/Cu(II) ratio at the start of the reaction, a 65(3):1 anti-Markovnikov/Markovnikov ratio is observed.

Catalytic Upgrading in Bacteria-Compatible Conditions via a Biocompatible Aldol Condensation.

Project description:Integrating non-enzymatic chemistry with living systems has the potential to greatly expand the types and yields of chemicals that can be sourced from renewable feedstocks. The in situ conversion of microbial metabolites to higher order products will ensure their continuous generation starting from a given cellular reaction mixture. We present here a systematic study of different organocatalysts that enable aldol condensation in biological media under physiological conditions of neutral pH, moderate temperature, and ambient pressure. The relative toxicities of each catalyst were tested against bacteria, and the catalysts were found to provide good yields of homoaldol products in bacterial cultures containing aldehydes. Lastly, we demonstrate that a biocompatible oil can be used to selectively extract the upgraded products, which enabes facile isolation and decreases the product toxicity to microbes.
