Transition Metal/Base-Catalyzed Aldol Reactions of Isocyanoacetic Acid Derivatives with Prochiral Ketones, a Straightforward Approach to Stereochemically Defined β,β-Disubstituted-β-hydroxy-α-amino Acids.1 Scope and Limitations
摘要:
A systematic study of the transition metal/base-catalyzed aldol reactions of methyl isocyanoacetate with a wide range of prochiral ketones, giving rise to the 4-(methoxycarbonyl)-5,5-disubstituted-2-oxazolines, has been made. The diastereoselectivity of these reactions was found to be influenced by a mix of several factors, including steric characteristic of the substituents, nature of the catalyst, electrostatic, and electron donor-acceptor type interactions. The former factor, a stereochemical discrimination between the substituents at the ketone carbon, was shown to be the most pronounced in controlling of the stereochemical outcome, which could be markedly improved with a proper choice of the catalyst. In particular, for the reactions of methyl isocyanoacetate with polyhaloalkyl aryl(alkyl) ketones, high diastereoselectivity (80-98% de) was achieved, thus allowing for straightforward and generalized access to the corresponding (2R*,3R*)-beta,beta-disubstituted-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino carboxylic acid.

Transition metal-catalyzed aldol reaction of aryl fluoroalkyl ketones with methylisocyanoacetate was found to proceed with high diastereoselectivity that is in sharp contrast to the very poor diastereoselectivity in the similar reaction of nonfluorinated ketones. The superiority of AgClO4/NEt3 as a homogeneous catalyst (1 mol %) for these reactions was disclosed.
发现芳基氟代烷基酮与异氰基乙酸甲酯的过渡金属催化的羟醛反应以高的非对映选择性进行,这与非氟化酮的类似反应中非常差的非对映选择性形成鲜明对比。公开了AgClO 4 / NEt 3作为均相催化剂(1摩尔%)对于这些反应的优越性。
