A short enantioselective synthesis of ephedrine, amphetamine and their analogues via two stereocentered Co(III)-catalyzed hydrolytic kinetic resolution of racemic syn-benzyloxy epoxide
摘要:
An efficient route for the synthesis of 6 drugs belonging to phenethylamine and amphetamine classes in excellent overall yields and high optical purity has been described. The strategy involves introduction of stereogenic centers by means of two-stereocentered Co(III)-catalyzed hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of racemic syn-benzyloxy epoxide followed by Pd-catalyzed regioselective cationic hydrogenation of amino alcohols as the key reactions.

A simple and one-step method has been developed for selective O-benzylation of aminoalkanols. Study of steric effects shows the best selectivity in adjacent 1 degrees-OH vs 2 degrees-CHNH2 and decreased selectivity in 2 degrees-OH vs 1 degrees-CH2NH2 and non adjacen aminoalkanol.

Chiral C2-symmetric DMEU derivatives were designed and synthesized as chiral ligands for lithium. The reaction of the lithiumenolate (2) of 1-tetralone (1) with methyl iodide in toluene in the presence of a DMEU derivative (11) and hexamethyl-disilazane gave (S)-2-methyl-1-tetralone ((S)-3) in up to 92% ee.
