CATALYTIC ASYMMETRIC INTERMOLECULAR C–H INSERTION OF 1,4-CYCLOHEXADIENE WITH α-ALKYL-α-DIAZOESTERS USING CHIRAL DIRHODIUM(II) CARBOXYLATES
摘要:
The first example of dirhodium(II) complex-catalyzed asymmetric intermolecular C-H insertion with alpha-alkyl-alpha-diazoesters is described. The reaction of 1,4-cyclohexadiene with 2,4-dimethyl-3-pentyl alpha-alkyl-alpha-diazoacetates under catalysis by dirhodium(II) tetrakis[N-phthaloyl-(S)-tert-leucinate], Rh-2(S-PTTL)(4), or dirhodium(II) tetrakis[N-tetrafluorophthaloyl-(S)-tert-leucinate], Rh-2(S-TFPTTL)(4), gave the corresponding C-H insertion products with enantioselectivities of up to 86% ee, albeit in low to modest yields.
