Catalytic Asymmetric Hydrogenation of N-Boc-Imidazoles and Oxazoles
摘要:
Substituted imidazoles and oxazoles were respectively hydrogenated into the corresponding chiral imidazolines and oxazolines (up to 99% ee). The highly enantioselective hydrogenation was achieved by using the chiral ruthenium catalyst, which is generated from Ru(eta(3)-methallyl)(2)(cod) and a trans-chelating chiral bisphosphine ligand, PhTRAP. This is the first successful catalytic asymmetric reduction of 5-membered aromatic rings containing two or more heteroatoms.

Chiral aromatic oxazolines were prepared for utilization in asymmetric C-C bonding reactions. Lithiation of aryloxazolines could not be accomplished directly but were efficiently lithiatedvia halogen metal exchange of the o-bromo derivative 16. The resulting lithio compound 9 reacted smoothly with carbonyls to give adducts 19 but with poor stereoselectivity. Hydrolysis gave the phthalides 4 in poor
Chiral oxazoline compounds play an extremely important role in asymmetric synthesis and drug discovery. Herein a simpler, greener and more efficient microwave-assisted protocol to rapidly access chiral oxazolines is developed using aryl nitriles or cyano-containing compounds and chiral β-amino alcohols as starting materials. The reaction proceeds smoothly in the presence of a recoverable heterogeneous
strategy is described here. Amide is used as the O- and N- source to probe for regiocontrol strategies. Notably, simple additives can be selectively introduced to achieve regiodivergent oxyamination processes for electronically activated alkenes while being regio-complementary for unactivated alkenes. Our preliminary data demonstrates that this regiocontrol strategy based on nucleophile can also be applied

A variety of 2-oxazolines are found to react with arenes in superacidic triflic acid, CF3SO3H. It is proposed that the 2-oxazolines are protonated twice in triflic acid and the resulting intermediates undergo ring-opening reactions to produce reactive, dicationic species. These superelectrophiles are capable of reacting with benzene and o-dichlorobenzene in high yields by Friedel-Crafts type reactions. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Study on the tandem synthesis of optically active 2-substituted 4 (or 5)-phenyl-1,3-oxazolines
Optically active (S)-2-aryl-4 (or 5)-phenyl-1,3-oxazolines and (S)-2-fluoroalkyl-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolines were synthesized from a tandem one-pot reaction of (S)-2-amino-2-phenylethanol with a corresponding carboxylic acid in toluene at 90 degrees C in the presence of PPh3/CBr4 and excess Et3N. The use of aromatic carboxylic acids were determined to proceed through N-(2-bromo-1-phenyl-ethyl)-arylamides 5 and N-aroyl aziridine intermediates 6, which resulted in the formation of (S)-2-aryl-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolines and (S)-2-aryl-5-phenyl-1,3-oxazolines, respectively. Concurrently, the reaction with fluorinated aliphatic carboxylic acid substrates proceeded via N-(2-hydroxy-1-phenyl-ethyl)-fluoroalkyl amide intermediates 8, which were converted into N-(2-bromo-1-phenyl-ethyl)-fluoroalkyl amide intermediates 9, and then into (S)-2-fluoroalkyl-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolines as final products. Reaction mechanisms that mainly passed through the formation of aziridine intermediates 6 in the reaction with aromatic carboxylic acids and the formation of fluoroalkyl amide intermediates 8 and 9 in the reaction with fluorinated aliphatic carboxylic acid were proposed. The acidities of the carboxylic acids that were employed were found to play a key role in the selective formation of various intermediates during this reaction. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
