Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Silaborative C−C Cleavage of meso-Methylenecyclopropanes
摘要:
An enantioselective silaborative C-C cleavage of meso-methylenecyclopropanes (meso-MCPs) was achieved by using a palladium catalyst bearing a chiral monodentate phosphine ligand. The (R)-2-bis(3,5-dimethylphenyl)phosphino-1,1'-binaphthyl gave the highest enantioselectivity in the reactions with (methyldiphenylsilyl)pinacolborane at 50 degrees C, affording derivatives of 2-boryl-4-silyl-1-butene in high yields with high enantiomeric excesses. The reactions of bicyclic MCPs that have fused five- to eight-membered rings gave the corresponding products with 89-91% ee, whereas a little lower ee was observed in the reaction of a non-fused MCP (81% ee). Synthetic applications of the products were demonstrated through synthesis of beta-silyl ketones by H2O2 oxidation and synthesis of stereodefined homoallylic alcohols via homologation-allylboration sequence, in which the chiral beta-substituent of the allylborane has critical impact on the diastereochemical outcome.

the presence of a Rh(I) catalyst enables reductive enolate generation, as evidenced by electrophilic trapping of the enolate by appendant and exogenous aldehyde partners. The significance of these findings resides in the ability to regioselectivity generate and transform transition metal enolatesunder catalytic conditions that circumvent formation of stoichiometric byproducts.
Dialkyl trans-2-alkoxy-2-alkyl-1,3-dioxolan-4,5-dicarboxylates and the corresponding N,N,N,N-tetramethyl-4,5-diamides have been prepared respectively from dialkyl tartrates or tartaric acid diamides. They smoothly reacted with silylenolethers in the presence of Lewis acids to give enantiomerically enriched (up to 90% d.e.) monoprotected 1,3-diketones. A dramatic dependence of the stereochemical outcome from the configuration of the enolic double bond of 4 has been observed. The products can be stereoselectively reduced to give configurationally defined monoprotected 3-ketols.

Irradiation of alpha,beta-epoxyketones in acetonitrile at 254 nm in the presence of triethylamine afforded beta-hydroxyketones in good to moderate yields.
Titanocene-Promoted Intermolecular Couplings of Epoxides with Nitriles. An Easy Access to β-Hydroxyketones
Radical couplings of epoxides and nitriles mediated by Cp2TiCl provide a diastereoselective route to the synthesis of beta-hydroxyketones. The conditions of this "aldol-like" reaction are mild enough to avoid the dehydration of the beta-hydroxyketone. The scope of the coupling reaction with functionalized and tetrasubstituted epoxides has been studied. The radical character of the coupling reactions is demonstrated.
