An organo-catalytic approach to the enantioselective synthesis of (R)-selegiline
摘要:
An efficient enantioselective synthesis of (R)-selegiline has been achieved by two routes, via proline-catalyzed alpha-aminooxylation as well as alpha-amination of phenylpropanaldehyde as the key step. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
An octahedral bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complex catalyzes the enantioselective α-amination of aldehydes with catalyst loadings down to 0.1 mol%. In this metal-templated design, the metal serves as a structural center and provides the exclusive source of chirality, whereas the catalysis is mediated through the organic ligand sphere.

diphenylprolinol silylethers have been developed as highly active catalysts for the enantioselective α-amination of aldehydes. Understanding the mechanism of catalystdeactivation has led to the development of reaction conditions notably extending catalyst life in repeated recycling (10 cycles; accumulated TON of 480) and has allowed the implementation of a continuousflowα-amination process (6 min
Pyrrolidine-derived organocatalysts were tested in two types of α-heterofunctionalization reactions in aqueousmedia or under solvent-free ball-milling conditions. The best results in terms both activity and enantioselectivity were obtained with O-silylated 4-hydroxyproline derivatives in the α-aminoxylation reaction between n-butyraldehyde and nitrosobenzene (83% yield for water, 86% yield for ball
The asymmetricα-amination of aldehydes was performed using a resin-supportedpeptidecatalyst. A tri- or tetrapeptide with an N-terminal D-Pro-Aib sequence efficiently catalyzed the reaction in a highly enantioselective manner. The supported catalyst could be easily recovered by filtration and reused at least ten times.

The first direct catalytic asymmetric alpha-amination of aldehydes is described herein. alpha-Unbranched aldehydes react in this novel proline-catalyzed reaction with dialkyl azodicarboxylates to give alpha-amino aldehydes in excellent yields and enantioselectivities.
