Diversity-Oriented Asymmetric Catalysis (DOAC): Stereochemically Divergent Synthesis of Thiochromanes Using an Imidazoline–Aminophenol–Nickel-Catalyzed Michael/Henry Reaction
摘要:
The (S,S)-diphenylethylenediamine-derived imidazoline-aminophenol-Ni complex catalyzed tandem asymmetric Michael/Henry reaction of 2-mercaptobenzaldehydes with beta-nitrostyrenes to give the corresponding (2S,3R,4R)-2-aryl-3-nitrothiochroman-4-ols in up to 99% diastereoselectivity with 95% ee was demonstrated in diversity-oriented asymmetric catalysis. Reduction of the nitro group of the chiral thiochromanes gave a new series of (2S,3R,4R)-3-amino-2-arylthiochroman-4-ols with retention of the strereoselectiyity.

Bis(imidazolidine)iodobenzene (I-Bidine) was designed as an organocatalyst based on previously reported imidazolidine- or oxazolidine-containing chiral metal catalysts. I-Bidine showed catalytic activity for the Michael/Henry reaction of thiosalicyl aldehydes with nitroalkenes to give optically active thiochromanes with moderate enantiomericexcesses.
