AbstractA highly enantioselective conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to cyclic as well as acyclic aromatic and aliphatic nitroalkenes is presented. The rhodium complexes obtained from deoxycholic acid‐derived binaphthyl and flexible biphenyl phosphites showed good activity as well as very high enantioselectivity (ee up to 99%) in the conjugated addition even in the presence of challenging substrates such as 1‐nitrocyclohexene or aliphatic acyclic nitroalkenes.magnified image
A chiral diene ligand with tertiary alkyl amine‐derived secondary amide moiety was immobilized on cross‐linked polystyrene (PS) by radical polymerization, which was combined with Rh to form heterogeneous chiral Rh complexes (PS‐diene Rh−Cl). PS‐diene Rh−Cl catalyzed asymmetric arylation reactions of α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds (ketones, esters, and amides), nitroalkenes, and imines afforded

An efficient rhodium/olefin–sulfoxide catalyzed asymmetric conjugateaddition of organoboronic acids to a variety of nitroalkenes has been developed, where 2-methoxy-1-naphthyl sulfinyl functionalized olefin ligands have shown to be highly effective and are applicable to a broad scope of aryl, alkyl, and heteroaryl nitroalkenes.

An efficient enantioselective addition of an array of arylboronic acids to various beta-nitrostyrenes catalyzed by a novel and reactive rhodium-diene catalyst (S/C up to 1000) was developed, providing beta,beta-diarylnitroethanes in good to high yields (62-99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (85-97% ee). The method was extended to 2-heteroarylnitroolefins and 2-alkylnitroolefins similarly providing the desired products with high enantioselectivities and yields. The usefulness of this method was demonstrated in the formal synthesis of the enantiomer of the dopamine receptor agonist and antagonist, SKF 38393.
