Enantioenriched ω-bromocyanohydrin derivatives. Improved selectivity by combination of two chiral catalysts
摘要:
Highly enantioenriched (R)-4-bromo-1-cyanobutyl acetate and (R)-5-bromo-1-cyanopentyl acetate were prepared by acetylcyanation of 4-bromobutanal and 5-bromopentanal, respectively, catalyzed by (S,S)-[(4,6-bis(t-butyl)salen)Ti(mu-O)](2) and triethylamine followed by enzymatic hydrolysis of the minor enantiomer. A cyclic procedure employing the same two chiral catalysts provided inferior results due to a slowly reached steady state and, in reactions with the former substrate, to ring-closure of the free cyanohydrin formed as an intermediate in the reaction. Hydrolysis of the acylated cyanohydrins followed by AgClO4-promoted cyclization provided (R)-2-cyanotetrahydrofuran and (R)-2-cyanotetrahydropyran in essentially enantiopure form.

Optically active omega-bromocyanohydrins are easily synthesized through an enantioselective (R)-oxynitrilase-catalyzed reaction from their corresponding omega-bromoaldehydes. These cyanohydrins are starting materials for the preparation of medium size nitro gen heterocycles. The reduction of (R)-(+)-5-bromo-2-hydroxypentanenitrile affords, in one-pot, piperidin-3-ol. Azepan-3-ol and azocan-3-ol are readily obtained from their corresponding cyanohydrins in high enantiomeric excesses. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of (S)-2-cyanopiperidine, a key intermediate in the route to (S)-pipecolic acid and 2-substituted piperidine alkaloids
preparation of (S)-2-cyanopiperidine 4 provides a new access to 2-substituted piperidines. This synthesis is based on an enantioselective (R)-oxynitrilase-catalyzed reaction for the preparation of (R)-(+)-6-bromo-2-hydroxyhexanenitrile 1 and the subsequent cyclization of this compound to yield the piperidine ring. The utilization of 4 as the starting material for the synthesis of (S)-2-aminomethylpiperidine
