Asymmetric catalytic aziridination of dihydronaphthalenes for the preparation of substituted 2-aminotetralins
摘要:
An enantioselective synthesis of substituted 2-aminotetralins from dihydronaphthalenes in four steps is described. The key step is the Jacobsen's (diimine)copper-catalyzed asymmetric aziridination of dihydronaphthalenes to the respective aziridines in 33-82% yields and 60-87% enantiomeric excess. The enantioselectivity and the yield were dependent on the properties of the nitrene precursor. pTs=NIPh appeared in general to give better results than pNsN=IPh. Aziridines were ring-opened in the benzylic position by catalytic hydrogenolysis in quantitative yields, and deprotected in two steps to the respective 2-aminotetralins in 66-85% yields. The synthesis of (S)-2-aminotetralin (>98% ee) and (S)-2-amino-7-methoxytetralin (56% ee) were accomplished in 30 and 52% overall yields, respectively. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The (R)-selective chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of primary amines was performed at 38-40 degrees C in MTBE, in good to high yields and with high enantiomeric excesses. These reactions associating CAL-B to octanethiol as radical racemizing agent were carried out in the presence of methyl beta-methoxy propanoate as acyl donor, under photochemical irradiation at 350 nm in glassware.
