Chiral Brønsted Acid Catalyzed Enantioselective Addition of α-Isocyanoacetamides to Aldehydes
摘要:
A clean and highly efficient enantioselective addition-of alpha-isocyanoacetamides to aliphatic aldehydes catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acid in the presence of MS 5 angstrom in toluene at -40 degrees C was developed. Excellent yields (85-98%) and good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) were achieved.
equiv of chiral binol-derived organophosphoric acid and 1 equiv of Et2AlCl. In the presence of a catalytic amount of [4j]2Al(III)Cl complex (0.05 equiv), reaction between α-isocyanoacetamides (2) and aldehydes (3) afforded the corresponding 5-aminooxazoles (1) in good yields and enantioselectivities. Complex [4j]2Al(III)Cl isolated as a white solid displayed similar reactivity as that prepared in situ.
