Highly Enantioselective Intramolecular Cyclopropanation Reactions of N-Allylic-N-methyldiazoacetamides Catalyzed by Chiral Dirhodium(II) Carboxamidates
摘要:
Catalytic diazo decomposition of representative N-allylic-N-methyldiazoacetamides produced the corresponding intramolecular cyclopropanation products in good to excellent yields and with exceptional enantiocontrol. In the simplest case, with N-allyl-N-methyldiazoacetamide, catalysis by dirhodium(II) tetrakis[methyl 2-oxapyrrolidine-5(S)-carboxylate], Rh-2(5(S)-MEPY)(4), achieved the highest yield and enantioselectivity (93% eel. Dirhodium(II) tetrakis[methyl 2-oxo-1-(3-phenylpropanoyl)imidazolidin-4(S)-carboxylate] Rh-2(4S)-MPPIM)(4), was preferred for substituted N-allylic-N-methyldiazoacetamides from which 92-95% ee's were obtained in intramolecular cyclopropanation reactions (88-95% yields), even when the catalyst was employed in only 0.1 mol %, Competition with intramolecular dipolar cycloaddition was minimized with the use of N-methyldiazoacetamides relative to N-tert-butyldiazoacetamides.

A catalytic oxidative Heck (Fujiwara-Moritani) cyclization has been evaluated for construction of the azepinoindole framework starting from readily available 3-indoleacetic acid amides. The supporting role of the amide group in the substrate has been demonstrated necessary for the success of the cyclization.

A novel microwave-assisted approach for the one-pot Cu(I)-catalyzed A3-coupling/decarboxylative coupling (PA2-coupling) of a propiolicacid, an aldehyde, and an amine, resulting in the formation of diversely substituted 1,4-diamino-2-butynes,is described. It is noteworthy that this new multicomponent coupling provides an efficient access to introduce alkyl and aryl group at the 1,4-position of the

N-arylamides (bond dissociation freeenergies ∼ 100 kcal/mol) via concerted proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) and mediating efficient carboamination reactions of the resulting amidyl radicals. This manner of PCET activation, which finds its basis in numerous biological redox processes, enables the formal homolysis of a stronger amide N-H bond in the presence of weaker allylic C-H bonds, a selectivity that
3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of quaternary allylic ammonium ylides via in situ activation of tertiary allylicamines with arynes under mild conditions. Using 2-(trimethylsilyl)aryl triflates as aryne precursors, a range of tertiary allylicamines bearing electron-withdrawing groups underwent [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to furnish structurally diverse homoallylic amines in moderate to good yields. The reaction

Treatment of N-chlorodimethylamine with sodium azide in dichloromethane does not lead to N-azidodimethylamine, as thought for more than 50 years. Instead, surprisingly, (azidomethyl)dimethylamine is generated with good reproducibility. A plausible reaction mechanism to explain the formation of this product is presented. The reaction of lithium dibenzylhydrazide with tosyl azide does not result in the
