Optimization of the Catalytic Asymmetric Addition of Nitroalkanes to Cyclic Enones with trans-4,5-Methano-l-proline
摘要:
The conjugate addition of symmetrical 2-nitroalkanes to 2-cycloalkenones catalyzed by trans-4,5-methano-L-proline proceeds with > 99% ee and excellent chemical yields. 1-Nitroalkanes afford diastereomeric syn/anti products that can be separated with good individual enantioselectivities. Proline hydroxamic acid and its trans-4,5-methano-L-proline hydroxamic acid are also effective organocatalysts in the addition of 2-nitropropane to 2-cyclohexenone (75% and 81% ee, respectively).

4-trans-Amino-proline based di- and tetrapeptides have been successfully applied as chiral organocatalysts in the enantioselective conjugate addition of nitroalkanes to cyclic enones and the direct aldol reaction. Two 4-trans-amino-proline residues were shown to be sufficient enough to catalyze the conjugate addition reactions with up to 88% ee and up to 100% yield. It has been demonstrated that 4-trans-amino-proline based di- and tetrapeptides are significantly more active than L-proline (at 30 mol %) and can catalyze the direct aldol reaction with good yield and enantioselectivity within 3 h and at lower catalyst loading (5 mol %).
