Bifunctional Photocatalysts for Enantioselective Aerobic Oxidation of β-Ketoesters
摘要:
A novel visible-light-responsive chiral ligand has been developed by grafting a triplet state photo sensitizer to chiral bisoxazoline ligands. Complexation of this ligand with Ni(acac)(2) results in a powerful catalyst for the asymmetric oxidation reaction of beta-ketoesters, which uses oxygen or air as the green oxidant and visible light or sunlight as the ideal driving force. Using this protocol, products containing the alpha-hydroxy-beta-dicarbonyl motif are produced in high yields and with excellent enantiopurities.
The first enantioselective direct α-hydroxylation of β-oxo esters was developed by using phase-transfercatalysis. 1-Indanone-derived 1-adamantyl (1-Ad) β-oxo esters, in the presence of commercially available cumyl hydroperoxide and a cinchonine-based ammonium salt, resulted in the corresponding products with 69–91 % yield and 65–74 % ee. The reaction had also been successfully scaled-up to a gram

efficient kinetic resolution of racemic oxaziridines has been realized via catalytic asymmetric α-hydroxylation of available β-ketoesters. In the presence of a chiral bifunctional guanidine catalyst, a variety of optically active oxaziridines and chiral α-hydroxy β-ketoesters were generated with excellent results (ee’s of up to 99% and 97% and yields of up to 44% and 54%, respectively).
A highly efficient α-hydroxylation of β-ketoesters catalyzed by cupreidine in the presence of cumyl hydroperoxide (CHP) was achieved. The reaction was applied to a wide variety of β-ketoesters to give products in high yields (up to 95%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). The reaction had been successfully scaled up to a gram quantity and (S)-5-chloro-2-hydroxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-
asymmetric α‐hydroxylation of β‐indanone esters and β‐indanone amides using peroxide as the oxidant was realized with a new C‐2′ substituted Cinchona alkaloid derivatives. The two enantiomers of α‐hydroxy‐β‐indanone esters could be obtained by simply changing the oxidant. This protocol allows a convenient access to the corresponding α‐hydroxy‐β‐indanone esters and α‐hydroxy‐β‐indanone amides with up to
