A pH Study on the Chiral Ketone Catalyzed Asymmetric Epoxidation of Hydroxyalkenes
摘要:
A detailed study shows that the chiral ketone catalyzed asymmetric epoxidations of hydroxyalkenes are highly pH dependent. The lower enantioselectivity obtained at low pH is attributed to the substantial contribution of the direct epoxidation by Oxone. At high pH the epoxidation mediated by chiral ketone out-competes the racemic epoxidation, leading to higher enantioselectivity. The effective substrates include allylic alcohol, homoallylic alcohol, and bishomoallylic alcohol. In most cases, over 90% ee was obtained.

preliminary results of our new designed C(2)-symmetric bis-hydroxamic acid (BHA) ligands and the application of the new ligands for vanadium-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation of allylic alcohols as well as homoallylic alcohols. From this success we demonstrate the versatile nature of BHA in the molybdenum catalyzed asymmetric oxidation of unfunctionalized olefins and sulfides.
A practical synthesis of Shi's diester 3 for catalytic asymmetricepoxidations has been developed. The catalyst has been prepared in multigram quantities from d-fructose in four steps with a 66% overall yield. Efficiency, cost, and selectivity aspects of the reagents involved for its preparation have been taken care of during its preparation. The workup procedures have been simplified to the bare minimum
The present invention relates to the synthesis of chiral epoxides via a catalytic asymmetric oxidation of olefins. Additionally, the methodology provides a method of asymmetrically oxidizing sulfides and phosphines. This asymmetric oxidation employs a catalyst system composed of a metal and a chiral bishydroxamic acid ligand, which, in the presence of a stoichiometric oxidation reagent, serves to asymmetrically oxidize a variety of substrates.
A new chiral tethered 8-quinolinol-based ligand class is developed. The binuclear titanium complex of the ligand operates through a novel mechanism allowing for the regio- and stereoselective epoxidation of primary and tertiary homoallylic alcohols (up to 98% ee), as well as first examples of 2-allylic phenols (up to 92% ee). The new catalyst system also promotes the asymmetric oxidation of gamma-hydroxypropyl sulfides giving an important class of chiral sulfoxides that have been inaccessible to date (up to 95% ee).
