Catalytic stereoselective alkene aziridination with sulfonimidamides
摘要:
Diastereoselective copper-catalyzed alkene aziridination has been investigated using chiral nitrenes generated from sulfonimidamides in the presence of an iodine(III) oxidant. Starting from a stoichiometric amount of the substrates, the corresponding aziridines were isolated with excellent yields of up to 96%. Good levels of asymmetric induction were obtained in the case of electron-poor olefins, with an optimal de of 94% being reached starting from tert-butyl acrylate. Matching and mismatching effects were also observed upon the use of chiral copper catalysts for the aziridination of styrene. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Phosphorylatedsulfonimidamides (SIAPhos) undergo ion exchange reactions with cationic complexes, [Rh(cod)2BF4] and [Ir(cod)2BarF], or neutral complexes [Rh(cod)Cl]2 and [Ir(cod)Cl]2, leading to unprecedented neutral complexes with P‐N‐S‐N chelates. Use of the resulting neutral iridium complexes in asymmetrichydrogenation reactions of tri‐ and tetrasubstituted enamides leads to products with high
