"privileged" structure with representation in over 3000 natural isolates and 40 medicinal agents of diverse therapeutic action. A newstrategy for asymmetric access to this important pharmacaphore has been accomplished that involves the amine catalyzed alkylation of indoles with alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes. Central to these studies has been the design of a newchiral amine catalyst that exhibits

Aqua-complexes (S-M,R-C)-[C-p*M((R)-prophos)(H2O)][SbF6](2)(M = Rh 1, Ir 2) catalysed the alkylation of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes with aromatics and heteroaromatics but in some cases, mixtures of products were obtained. Complexes 1 and 2 were also used to activate nitroalkenes for the Friedel-Crafts alkylation of a variety of aromatics and heteroaromatics, in particular, 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene. For this substrate, the monoalkylated adduct was obtained in quantitative yield with enantioselectivities of up to 73% ee being achieved. The intermediate catalyst/nitroalkene was isolated and characterized and the complex catalyst/adduct was detected spectroscopically. From these data a plausible catalytic cycle is proposed.

Enantioselective Synthesis of a Highly Potent Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor. An Application of Imidazolidinone Catalysis to the Alkylation of Indoles with an α,β-Disubstituted α,β-Unsaturated Aldehyde
[GRAPHICS]The synthesis of the highly potent and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor 1 (BMS-594726) is described. In the key construction step, an enantioselective alkylation of the indole nucleus with an a-branched alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde 7 was accomplished utilizing MacMillan's imidazolidinone catalyst 3b. A rationale is presented for the unexpected stereochemical result, as well as the novel reactivity of the alpha-branched substrate.

Abstractmagnified imageThe Lewis base‐Lewis base bifunctional catalytic system has been developed and successfully applied to the asymmetric Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indoles with α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes. The reactions are promoted by chiral diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether in the presence of triethylamine. By this protocol, optically active 3‐substituted indoles can be obtained in an organocatalytic process that is free of Lewis or protic acid in high yields with up to 98% ee. Besides, this reaction could be carried out on a gram scale without any loss in the enantioselectivity.
