An efficient synthesis of tetrasubstitutedolefins was achieved via a palladium‐catalyzed, chelation‐assisted oxidativeHeckarylation protocol from trisubstituted olefins bearing a tether with a directing group in a completely stereo‐ and regioselective manner. The stereo‐ and regioselectivity as well as excellent yields of tetrasubstitutedolefins originated from the stabilization of a palladium
A novel protocol for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted olefins through a biomimetic approach has been explored. Both mono- and diarylations were performed under ambient oxygen pressure, giving a range of highly hindered tetrasubstituted alkenes. For diarylation of disubstituted substrates, it was demonstrated that the second arylation is the rate-limiting step of the overall transformation.
Enantioselective Synthesis of β<sup>2</sup>-Amino Acids via Rh-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation with BoPhoz-Type Ligands: Important Influence of an N−H Proton in the Ligand on the Enantioselectivity
[GRAPHICS]A series of BoPhoz-type ligands were successfully applied in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of a number of P-substituted or unsubstituted alpha-(phthalimidomethyl)acrylates, affording good to excellent enantioselectivities. The results suggested that the presence of an N-H proton in the BoPhoz backbone could significantly improve the enantioselectivity, and ligand (S-c,R-p)-1d, bearing two CF3-groups in the 3,5-position of the phenyl ring of aminophosphino moiety, showed the highest enantioselectivity.
