Exploratory Studies on Reactions of Cobaloxime π-Cations with C-Nucleophiles: Irreversible Alkene Decomplexation versus Nucleophilic Capture
摘要:
(beta-Hydroxyalkyl)- and (beta-acetoxyalkyl)cobaloximes can undergo facile acid-catalyzed P-heteroatom exchange with oxygen and nitrogen nucleophiles in an S(N)1-like mechanism via cationic metal-alkene pi-complex intermediates (cobaloxime pi-cations). The reaction of cobaloxime pi-cations with carbon nucleophiles has not been previously reported. The results reported in this paper demonstrate that cobaloxime pi-cations are reasonably good electrophiles. They are sufficiently reactive to add to the electron-rich sp(2) centers in allyltrimethylsilane and pyrrole. A major side reaction for intermolecular reactions is irreversible alkene decomplexation. An intramolecular pyrrole cyclization (22 to 23, 83% yield) significantly raised the yield for nucleophilic addition compared to that of the analogous intermolecular couplings (12b tb 13b, 32% yield and 17 to 18, 29% yield). The results of these studies provide a foundation for the design and evaluation of modified cobalt ligands with the goal of suppressing alkene decomplexation and enhancing reaction of cobaloxime pi-cations with C-nucleophiles.

A microorganism or a preparation thereof is permitted to act on a mixture of enantiomers of an epoxide such as 3-chlorostyrene oxide and the product optically active epoxide is recovered. The microorganism able to produce an optically active (S)-epoxide from the mixture of enantiomers of the epoxide include, for example, a microorganism strain belonging to the genus Candida, the genus Rhodosporidium, the genus Rhodococcus and the genus Nosardioides. Examples of the microorganism capable of producing an optically active (R)-epoxide from said mixture include a microorganism strain belonging to the genus Trichosporon, the genus Geotrichum, the genus Corynebacterium, the genus Micrococcus and the genus Brevibacterium. The objective optically active epoxide can efficiently be obtained with ease and simplicity from the corresponding mixture of enantiomers of the epoxide.
