Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Exchange and Isomerization Reactions. 17. Exchange of Chiral Allyl Alcohols with Hydroxide, Methoxide, and Phenyl at High [Cl-]. Stereochemistry of the Wacker Reaction
摘要:
At high [Cl-] (> 2.0 M), PdCl42- catalyzes the exchange of chiral allylic alcohols with hydroxy, methoxy, and phenyl to give chiral allyl-substituted olefins. With unsymmetrical olefins, isomerization occurs along with exchange. The hydroxyl exchange occurs in aqueous solution while the other exchanges are carried out in methanol solution. At low [Cl-] (0.1 M) oxidation to the corresponding beta-hydroxy-, methoxy-, and phenyl-substituted carbonyl compounds occurred. The absolute configurations of the oxidation and exchange products should be the same if the same mode of addition to the Pd(II)-pi-complex is operative. The absolute configurations of the oxidation and exchange products for the phenylation reaction were the same, while for hydroxy and methoxy they were different. This result indicates methanol and water must have different stereochemistries of addition at high and low [Cl-]. Thus, previous studies showing anti hydroxypalladation at high [Cl-] are not valid indicators of the stereochemistry at low [Cl-]. If anti addition occurs at high [Cl-], the addition must be syn at low [Cl-].

Noyori's famous BINAL reagent Li[AlH(OEt)(BINOL dianion)] is formed by the combination of LiGaH4 , monothiobinaphthol (MTB), and catecholborane. With this mixture unsymmetrical ketones can be reduced in high enantioselectively. Un=unsaturated unit; R=alkyl.
asymmetric reduction of prochiral ketones, with catecholborane as the hydride source. Enantioface differentiation is on the basis of the steric requirements of the ketone substituents. Aryl/ n-alkyl ketones are reduced in 90-93% ee and RC(O)Me (e.g. R = iPr, cycloC6H11, tBu) in 60-72% ee. Other borane sources and alternative catalyst structures based on indium do not form enantioselective catalysts

A highlyregio- and stereoselective oxidative hydroacetoxylation of 1,2-allenylicsulfoxides affording 1-sulfonyl-1-alken-3-yl acetates in moderate to good yields was developed. Through the X-ray diffraction study, it was observed that the reaction may proceed via a 5-membered cyclic intermediate and the −OAc attacks the chiral carbon atom, which is different from what was observed in our previous
The substratespectrum of the inverting alkylsulfatase Pisa1 was investigated using a range of sec‐alkyl sulfate esters bearing aromatic, olefinic and acetylenic moieties. Perfect enantioselectivities were obtained for substrates bearing groups of different size adjacent to the sulfate ester moiety. Insufficient selectivities could be doubled by using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as co‐solvent. Hydrolytically

B-(Iso-2-ethylapopinocampheyl)-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (Eapine-Borane, 7), and B-(Iso-2-n-propylapopinocampheyl)-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (Prapine-Borane, 9), prepared via the hydroboration of 2-ethylapopinene (6) or 2-n-propylapopinene (8), respectively, with 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane, reduce prochiral alpha,beta-acetylenic ketones and alpha-keto esters to the corresponding alcohols with significantly higher optical induction than does Alpine-Borane (1). (-)-2-n-Propylapopinene was synthesized by treating nopyl tosylate with dimethyl cuprate prepared in situ from ethyllithium and cuprous iodide. (+)-2-n-Propylapopinene was synthesized by Schlosser metalation of (+)-alpha-pinene followed by treatment with ethyl iodide. 4-Phenyl-3-butyn-2-one was reduced to the corresponding propargylic alcohol in 89% ee and 96% ee by Eapine-Borane and Prapine-Borane, respectively, as compared to 82% ee with Alpine-Borane. Similar improved results were realized in the reduction of other acetylenic ketones by Eapine-Borane and Prapine-Borane. Similar improvements in the optical yields were realized in the reduction of alpha-keto esters by Eapine-Borane. For example, while Alpine-Borane produced methyl and ethyl lactate in 92% and 91% ee, respectively, Eapine-Borane gave these alcohols in 97% and 96% ee, respectively. Unfortunately, Prapine-Borane shows no improvement in percent ee for the reduction of alpha-keto esters. The increase in the percent ee realized is tentatively attributed to the increased steric requirements of the alkyl group at the 2-position of apopinene.
