NHC–Cu-Catalyzed Addition of Propargylboron Reagents to Phosphinoylimines. Enantioselective Synthesis of Trimethylsilyl-Substituted Homoallenylamides and Application to the Synthesis of S-(−)-Cyclooroidin
摘要:
A catalytic method for the efficient and enantioselective addition of a 1-trimethylsilyl-substituted allene moiety to phosphinoylimines is presented. Transformations are promoted by 5.0 mol % of a copper complex of an N-heterocyclic carbene in the presence of a propargylboron reagent that can be readily prepared in multigram quantities. Within 10 min of reaction, products are obtained in up to 91% yield, 98% allene (vs propargyl) selectivity, and 98:2 enantiomeric ratio. An assortment of aldimines serve as suitable substrates. The phosphinoyl and silyl groups can be removed efficiently and orthogonally. The silylallene moiety may be transformed to versatile derivatives that are difficult to access via nonsilylated allenes. The special features and utility of the approach are highlighted through a succinct enantioselective synthesis of marine alkaloid S-(-)-cyclooroidin.
Design and synthesis of a tridentate ligand inspired by the phenomenon of self-assembly catalysis and its application in the asymmetric alkynylation of N-(diphenylphosphinoyl) imines
摘要:
On the basis of the phenomenon of self-assembly catalysis, a tridentate ligand was designed and synthesized in two steps. The application in alkynylation of N-(diphenylphosphinoyl) imines gave the expected products. Aromatic, heteroaromatic N-(diphenylphosphinoyl) imines were employed and gave optically active propargylic amines in good yields (up to 89%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 96%) by a simple experimental procedure. The direct use of sulfone amides in the alkynylation of N-(diphenylphosphinoyl) aliphatic imines made this method very attractive. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Organocatalytic trifluoromethylation of imines using phase-transfer catalysis with phenoxides. A general platform for catalytic additions of organosilanes to imines
A new approach to additions of silicon nucleophiles to imines was developed. The method is based on the phase-transfer of phenoxides by ammonium catalysts, overcoming the inability of amide adducts in promoting the reactions.

The use of imines bearing a hydrolyzable nitrogen substituent in direct asymmetric Mannich reactions with α-hydroxyketones is developed. Previous work focused on the use of N-arylimines or nonenolizable imines, and the latter with only methoxy-substituted α-hydroxyacetophenones. Using a dinuclearcatalyst devised from 2,6-di-(S)-2‘-diphenylhydroxymethylpyrrolidino-N-methyl)-4-methylphenol and diethylzinc
Direct catalytic asymmetric Mannich-type reactions of isomerizable aliphatic imines: chemoselective enolate formation from a hydroxyketone by a Zn-catalyst
A direct catalyticasymmetric Mannich-type reaction of isomerizable aliphaticimines is described. A Et2Zn/(S,S)-linked-BINOL complex was suitable for chemoselective enolate formation from a hydroxyketone in the presence of isomerizable aliphatic N-diphenylphosphinoyl imines. The reaction proceeds smoothly and β-alkyl-β-amino-α-hydroxyketones were obtained in good yield and high enantioselectivity
