New Versatile Fluorinated Chiral Building Blocks: Synthesis and Reactivity of Optically Pure α-(Fluoroalkyl)-β-sulfinylenamines
摘要:
Efficient synthesis of optically pure alpha-(fluoroalkyl)-beta-sulfinyl enamines has been achieved by aza-Wittig reaction of triphenyliminophosphoranes with the corresponding alpha-fluorinated-alpha'-sulfinyl ketones. The title compounds 3,4 showed an overwhelming preference for the Z stereochemistry of the enamine form. Their general reactivity has been studied. The reaction with some electrophiles (i.e. benzyl chloroformate and benzyl and allyl bromide) occurs at the nitrogen atom providing the corresponding N,N-disubstituted enamines. Nucleophiles add smoothly to C-2: heteroatom-centered nucleophiles like methanol, ammonia, and thiophenol afford gem-disubstituted derivatives under thermodynamic control, while a C-centered nucleophile like nitromethane adds in irreversible fashion. The hydride- and deuteride-promoted reduction of 3,4 to the N-Cbz-protected (14) and N-unprotected (15) alpha-fluorinated-alpha'-sulfinyl amines has been studied. Hydride addition was stereoselective, while low stereoselection was obtained with the other tested nucleophiles. Desulfurization of the optically pure 1,1,1-trifluoro-3-sulfinyl amine 15a afforded (R)-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethylamine 17. The Pummerer rearrangement of 14 occurs in an unusual nonoxidative way affording the sulfenamide 24, that readily provided (R)-(2-H)- and -(2-D)-3,3,3-trifluoroalaninol (19) and (R)-3,3,3-trifluoroalanine (22).

γ-alkynyl-α-imino esters with complete atom economy is disclosed via chiral phosphoric acid catalysis. This protocol provides facile and efficient access to asymmetric construction of a broad range of axially chiral allene-derived naphthalenones bearing quaternary stereocenters in good yields with high diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities.

An enantioselective synthesis of unnatural pyrazole-based α-chiral amino acidderivatives from the asymmetric reaction of N-aryl-5-aminopyrazoles with β,γ-alkynyl-α-imino esters using a chiral spirocyclic phosphoric acid catalyst was developed. Using the established methodology, various pyrazole-based α-aminoacidderivatives with tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters were obtained in 67–98% yields

procedure for the synthesis of non-natural aromatic and heteroaromatic alpha-amino acids is reported. Starting from readily available starting materials and application of a chiral BINAP-Cu(I) catalyst, the optically active products are formed with readily removable N-protecting groups. The scope of the reaction is demonstrated by the addition of substituted furans, thiophenes, pyrroles, and aromatic compounds

We report a Zn‐ProPhenol catalyzed asymmetric Mannich reaction between butenolides and polyfluorinated alkynyl ketimines to obtain vinylogous products featuring two contiguous tetrasubstituted stereogenic centers. Notably, this is the first successful use of ketimines in the ProPhenol Mannich process, and the reaction offers a new approach for the preparation of pharmaceutically relevant products possessing

(+)-(R)- and (-)-(S)-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-methyl-alanine (1) were synthesized from (+)-(R)-methyl-p-tolylsulphoxide (5) and N-alkoxycarbonylimino derivatives 4 of methyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate (3). The absolute configuration was determined by X-ray analyses of two synthetic intermediates (2S,R(S))-6a and (2R,R(S))-6c.
