Explorations into the Potential of Chiral Sulfonium Reagents to Effect Asymmetric Halonium Additions to Isolated Alkenes
摘要:
While methods for the racemic dihalogenation and halohydroxylation of alkenes have been known for decades, enantioselective variants of these processes remain elusive. Initial attempts were made to overcome this long-standing challenge by exploring the potential of chiral, crystalline, sulfur-derived halonium reagents to accomplish the asymmetric dichlorination and iodohydroxylation of 1,2-dihydronaphthalene. Asymmetric dichlorination of this substrate was achieved in 57% yield and 14% enantiomeric excess (ee), but asymmetric iodohydroxylation was much more successful, giving 67% yield and 63% ee. Thorough studies were made of these processes, including investigation of various chiral sulfide derivatives, their substrate scopes, and the reaction conditions.

Treatment of an acetal of a contiguous diol with Me3SiCH2MgCl liberates the corresponding diol regioselectively; chelation is used to rationalize the selectively.
The O-protected polyhydroxy ketones 9-14 and 39, 42 add sigma-type Grignard reagents with >90:10 stereoselectivity to give the 3,4-syn-adducts 17-28 and 43, 45, respectively, as the major diastereomers (Tables 1 and 2). The stereoselectivity is interpreted in terms of early transition states which are very close to the groundstate conformations shown in Figure 6 and 7. These demonstrate that the ''top face'' of the carbonyl group is much less shielded than the ''bottom'' face. Complexation phenomena are of minor importance. It is also shown that the classical transition state models (Felkin-Anh or chelate Cram) are not applicable to polyoxygenated ketones.
Selective Deprotection of Acetals with Me<sub>3</sub>SiCH<sub>2</sub>MgCl. Peterson-Type Olefination of Acetals
By employing the chelation strategy, treatment of an acetal of a contiguous diol with Me3SiCH2MgCl liberates the corresponding diol regioselectively. In addition, acetals of different structural variety are transformed upon treatment with Me2SiCH2MgCl and ZnI2 into the corresponding olefination products in good yield.
