The isothiourea-catalysed enantioselective Michaeladdition of 3-aryloxindole and 4-substituted-dihydropyrazol-3-one pronucleophiles to α,β-unsaturated p-nitrophenyl esters is reported. This process generates products containing two contiguous stereocentres, one quaternary, in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities (>30 examples, up to > 95 : 5 dr and 99 : 1 er). This protocol harnesses the

An excellent level of enantioselectivity in asymmetric sulfenylation of 4-substituted pyrazolones was achieved with chiral iminophosphorane as the organocatalyst under continuum solvation conditions (up to 99% ee). Importantly, this catalytic process features high efficiency with excellent enantioselectivities, easy separation of products, low catalytic loadings and scale-up to grams without loss of
Highly Enantioselective Michael Addition of Pyrazolin-5-ones Catalyzed by Chiral Metal/N,N′-Dioxide Complexes: Metal-Directed Switch in Enantioselectivity
Make the switch: The first example of a switch in enantioselectivity in the asymmetric Michaeladdition of pyrazolin‐5‐ones to 4‐oxo‐4‐arylbutenoates that is controlled by the metal center of the catalyst is reported. By using the same N,N′‐dioxide ligand L with different metals the respective enantiomers of various 4‐substituted 5‐pyrazolone derivatives were obtained. Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl.
A highly enantioselective regiodivergent addition of alkoxyallenes to pyrazolones was developed to afford multiply functionalized alkylated products bearing a quaternary carbon stereocenter in high yields with excellent stereoselectivities. One approach is enabled by palladiumcatalysis, thus leading to branched allylic pyrazol‐5‐ones under mild reaction conditions. The other is catalyzed by a chiral
Asymmetric α-Amination of 4-Substituted Pyrazolones Catalyzed by a Chiral Gd(OTf)<sub>3</sub>/<i>N,N′</i>-Dioxide Complex: Highly Enantioselective Synthesis of 4-Amino-5-pyrazolone Derivatives
The asymmetric α-amination of 4-substituted pyrazolones with azodicarboxylates was investigated for the first time, employing an N,N′-dioxide gadolinium(III) complex as the catalyst. The novel transformations exhibited high yield, and 4-amino-5-pyrazolone derivatives bearing a chiral quaternary center were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (90%−97% ee) for a broad scope
