Catalytic Enantioselective Construction of All-Carbon Quaternary Stereocenters: Synthetic and Mechanistic Studies of the C-Acylation of Silyl Ketene Acetals
摘要:
With the aid of an appropriate chiral catalyst, acyclic silyl ketene acetals react with anhydrides to furnish 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds that bear all-carbon quaternary stereocenters in good ee and yield. Mechanistic studies provide strong support for a catalytic cycle that involves activation of both the electrophile (anhydride -> acylpyridinium) and the nucleophile (silyl ketene acetal -> enolate).

The synthesis of alkyl esters from readily available alkyl halides and chloroformates was achieved for the first time using a mild Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling protocol. Unactivated primary and secondary alkyl iodides as well as glycosyl, benzyl, and aminomethyl halides were successfully employed to yield products in moderate to excellent yields with high functional group tolerance.

The palladium-catalyzed hydroesterification of styrene derivatives is performed in a two-phase system composed of 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazoliumtetrafluoroborate salt (ionic phase) and isopropanol/cyclohexane (organic phase). Very high regioselectivities in 2-arylpropionic esters (≥99.5%) are obtained using a catalytic system composed of PdCl2(PhCN)2, (+)-neomenthyldiphenylphosphine (NMDPP) and p-toluenesulfonic
