Chiral 2-aminobenzimidazole bifunctional organocatalysts: effect of di-CF3 and TFA on catalytic mechanisms
摘要:
(S,S)-trans-Cyclohexanediamine-5,7-di-CF3-benzimidazole (3b) was developed as a new chiral bifunctional organocatalyst and successfully applied to Michael addition of diethyl malonate to nitroolefins (up to 99%, 98% ee) under neutral condition. Systematic investigation on the catalytic mechanism revealed that the role of the guanidine moiety and the dimethylamine moiety in catalysts might be reversed with respect to Bronsted/Lewis acidic or basic functionalities, depending on the reaction conditions (neutral or TFA co-catalyst). Generally, di-CF3 group substituted 2-aminobenzimidazole catalysts in neutral condition and non-substituted 2-aminobenzimidazole catalysts in co-catalyst (TFA) condition give high chemical yield and enantioselectivity.

Although the Michael addition is a very well-known and widely applied reaction, cost-effective, metal-free, and readily prepared organic catalysts remain rare. A chiral, bifunctional, (R,R)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine-derived thiourea organic catalyst was developed and applied to asymmetric Michael additions of nitroalkenes under neutral conditions. Generally, fluorine-substituted thiourea catalysts
尽管迈克尔加成反应是一种众所周知且应用广泛的反应,但具有成本效益、不含金属且易于制备的有机催化剂仍然很少见。开发了一种手性、双功能、( R , R )-1,2-二苯基乙二胺衍生的硫脲有机催化剂,并将其应用于中性条件下硝基烯烃的不对称迈克尔加成。通常,氟取代的硫脲催化剂在中性条件下表现出高化学产率和对映选择性。温和的反应对许多官能团具有耐受性,并提供了良好的产率,以及迈克尔加合物的高非对映和对映选择性。通过合成生物活性化合物 ( R )-Phenibut 证明了转化的效用。
