Evaluation of an esterase annotated as 26D isolated from a marine metagenomic library is described. Esterase 26D was found to have a unique substratescope, including synthetic transformations which could not be readily effected in a synthetically useful manner using commercially available enzymes. Esterase 26D was more selective towards substrateswhich had larger, more sterically demanding substituents

using a chiral diene(L*)‐rhodium catalyst. Through this methodology, we are able to obtain various secondary amides, containing a tertiary α‐stereocenter and a β,γ‐unsaturated gem‐difluoro olefin, with excellent enantioselectivities. This methodology addresses the limitations of the previously described α‐arylation methods to construct stereo‐labile tertiary α‐stereocenters. Further investigation of the
我们利用电子偏置迈克尔受体的反应性,使用手性二烯(L *)-铑催化剂进行脱氟α-芳基化反应。通过这种方法,我们能够获得各种仲酰胺,其中包括叔α-立体中心和β,γ-不饱和宝石-二氟烯烃,具有出色的对映选择性。该方法论解决了先前描述的α-芳基化方法构建立体不稳定的三级α-立体中心的局限性。通过原位19 F NMR监测反应的进一步研究表明,产物的形成导致活性铑催化剂的抑制。
Unexpected high regiocontrol in Heck reaction of fluorine-containing electron-deficient olefins—Highly regio- and stereoselective synthesis of β-fluoroalkyl-α-aryl-α,β-unsaturated ketones
Treatment of (E)-4,4,4-trifluoro-1-aryl-2-buten-1-one with various aryldiazonium salts in the presence of palladium catalyst gave the corresponding α-arylated Heck adducts with high regio- and stereoselectivity in good to high yields.
Rhodium(<scp>i</scp>)-catalyzed 1,4-conjugate arylation toward β-fluoroalkylated electron-deficient alkenes: a new entry to a construction of a tertiary carbon center possessing a fluoroalkyl group
Treatment of β-fluoroalkylated-α,β-unsaturated ketones with 1.2 equiv. of various arylboronic acids in the presence of 5 mol% of [Rh(COD)2]BF4 and 6 mol% of (S)-BINAP in toluene/H2O (v/v = 4/1) at the reflux temperature for 3 h gave the corresponding Michael adducts in high yields with over 90% enantioselectivity. Though other electron-deficient alkenes, such as vinylsulfone and vinylphosphonate, were found to be much less reactive in the rhodium-catalyzed conjugate addition with arylboronic acids, the reaction of various arylstannanes toward such electron-deficient alkenes took place very smoothly to afford the corresponding adducts in high yields.
Treatment of fluoroalkylated electron-deficient olefins with various boronic acids in the presence of a catalytic amount of Rh(l) coordinated with (S)-BINAP in toluene/H2O at the reflux temperature for 3 h gave the corresponding conjugate addition products with high enantioselectivity in high yields.
