Improved Enantioselectivity in the Epoxidation of Cinnamic Acid Derivatives with Dioxiranes from Keto Bile Acids
摘要:
The asymmetric epoxidation of substituted cinnamic acids has been obtained in the presence of different keto bile acid derivatives as optically active carbonyl inducers and Oxone as oxygen source. Predominant or almost exclusive formation of both enantiomeric epoxides is obtained (ee up to 95%) depending on the specific substitution at carbons C(7) and C(12) of the bile acid.

A number of 3-keto bile acid derivatives has been prepared and evaluated in the asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins with Oxone. The control of the enantioselectivity with the production of both enantiomers is strictly regulated by the bile acid inductor, as a function of substitution at carbons C(7) or C(12). Up to 98% ee has been achieved. The stereochemical outcome of the reaction may be rationalized in terms of spire, transition state model. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
