Enantioselective cyclopropanation reaction using a conformationally fixed pyridinium ylide through a cation–π interaction
摘要:
Using a chiral pyridinium ylide with a fixed conformation through a cation-pi interaction performs enantioselective cyclo-propanation of electron-deficient olefins. H-1 NMR, X-ray structural analysis and DFT calculations elucidated the self-complexation and the face-to-face arrangement between the pyridinium and the phenyl rings. The absolute configuration of the product was determined after conversion into a bicyclic cyclopropane derivative. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Novel planar-chiralpyridiniumylides were designed, and generated in situ from the corresponding pyridinium salts with triethylamine. Ylides with a common parapyridinophane skeleton reacted efficiently with electron-deficient dicyanoalkenes, or malononitriles, to produce optically active cyclopropane derivatives with high enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). Remotesteric effects were observed on the
