Study of the stereoselectivity of the nucleophilic epoxidation of 3-hydroxy-2-methylene esters
摘要:
The diastereoselectivity of the nucleophilic epoxidation of 3-hydroxy-2-methylene esters has been studied. The 3-hydroxy-2-methylene esters were obtained through a Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction. The resulting epoxyesters were treated with thiophenol for transformation into 2,3-dihydroxy-2-((phenylthio)methyl), which upon treatment with triphosgene afforded the corresponding cyclic carbonates.

A series of bifunctional phosphineâthiourea organic catalysts based on natural amino acid scaffolds were designed and prepared. L-Threonine-derived bifunctional phosphine catalysts were found to be very efficient in promoting asymmetric MoritaâBaylisâHillman (MBH) reaction of acrylates with aromatic aldehydes, affording the desired MBH adducts with up to 90% ee. To gain mechanistic insights into the reaction, the effects of adding various additives on the MBH reaction were investigated. We propose that the hydrogen bonding interactions between the thiourea moiety of the catalyst and the enolate intermediate are crucial for the stereochemical outcome of the reaction. The method described in this report may provide a practical solution to the enantioselective MBH reaction of simple acrylates.
