The chromium-Reformatsky reaction: anti-selective Evans-type aldol reactions with excellent inverse induction at ambient temperature
摘要:
anti-Aldol products are available in a two step, one pot reaction of 4-substituted oxazolidone, 2-bromopropionyl halide, chromium dichloride and an aldehyde. The diastereofacial selection (induction) is opposite to those of boron Evans enolates, i.e. the unusual ''non-Evans'' anti-aldol products are formed in excellent excess and yield - without base and at room temperature. In contrast to our previous assumptions alpha-unsubstituted acetyloxazolidones do give the Evans-type beta-anti-products preferentially. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Building on structural and mechanistic studies of lithiated enolates derived from acylated oxazolidinones (Evans enolates) and chiral lithiated amino alkoxides, we found that amino alkoxides amplify the enantioselectivity of aldol additions. The pairing of enantiomeric series affords matched and mismatched stereoselectivities. The structures of mixed tetramers showing 2:2 and 3:1 (alkoxide-rich) stoichiometries

role in aldolreactions of an acyloxazolidinone-derived titaniumenolate. Diethyl ether produces nearly fivefold higher diastereofacialselectivity than THF. We now show that this strong solvent effect arises from stoichiometric binding, most probably to the titanium, of THF in the transition structure, whereas ether is not bound. These mechanistic results indicate that THF lowers the selectivity by interfering

Directed aldolreactions of chiral (Me2CHO)3Ti-enolates give the opposite diastereofacial selectivity compared with the corresponding boronenolates. This stereochemical reversal is best explained if the Ti reactions involve chelation (not possible with boron, and previously thought to be unfavorable with (Me2CHO)3Ti-enolates). Changing the solvent from THF to diethyl ether significantly enhances the

Aldol reactions of the titanium enolate of (S)-N-propionyl-4-isopropyl-2-oxazolidinone (readily derived from L-valine) with representative aldehydes give high diastereofacial selectivities for the syn aldol adducts expected from chelation control. This represents a remarkable reversal in selectivity compared with the corresponding boron enolate, thus permitting either enantiomeric form of beta-hydroxy-alpha-methyl carboxylic acids to be made from a single, readily available oxazolidinone simply by changing the metal. A lithium interference effect is shown to be easily prevented by use of excess titanium. Use of diethyl ether as solvent rather than THF significantly enhances the stereoselectivity. Mechanistically, the observed stereochemical reversal constitutes very strong evidence that chelation is operative with titanium, presumably through a chelated chairlike transition structure. In this transition structure, the conformation would be rigidly locked by chelation and the titanium would be at least hexacoordinate, resulting in a ''superaxial'' ligand, thus nicely explaining the high stereocontrol.

The Evans reagent, imide 1, reacts with aldehydes under Lewis acid catalysis to give anti or ''non-Evans'' syn aldols 5 or 6, depending on the reaction conditions. This discovery considerably amplifies the synthetic utility of these important reagents for asymmetric synthesis.
