Catalytic Asymmetric Nazarov Cyclization of Heteroaryl Vinyl Ketones through a Crystallographically Defined Chiral Dinuclear Nickel Complex
摘要:
A Ni(NTf2)(2) and tetradentate bisimino-bisquinoline ligand complex catalyzed the enantioselective Nazarov cyclization of heteroaryl vinyl ketones. An X-ray-quality crystal was obtained from a mixture of the Ni complex and the substrate, which was the dinuclear chiral Ni complex. From information regarding the structure of the complex, the substrate was distorted to form a helical shape, and the carbon atoms involved in bond formation were close to each other. In addition, mechanistic studies revealed that the configuration of the olefin moiety was isomerized before bond formation.

we report on a new chemical class of 5-heteroaryl-3-carboxamido-2-substituted pyrroles (1A) that offers advantages of chemistry diversification and synthetic simplification. This work led to the identification of compound 18, with biochemical data and ADME profile similar to those of compound 1 but characterized by superior efficacy in an in vivo model. Derivative 18 represents a new lead compound worthy
