Enantioselective Aldehyde α-Nitroalkylation via Oxidative Organocatalysis
摘要:
The first enantioselective organocatalytic alpha-nitroatkylation of aldehydes has been accomplished. The aforementioned process involves the oxidative coupling of an enamine intermediate, generated transiently via condensation of an amine catalyst with an aldehyde, with a silyl. nitronate to produce a beta-nitroaldehyde. Two methods, one that furnishes the syn beta-nitroaldehyde and a second that provides access to the anti isomer, have been developed. Data are presented to support a hypothesis that explains this phenomenon in terms of a silyl group-controlled change in mechanism. Finally, a three-step procedure for the synthesis of both syn- and anti-alpha,beta-disubstituted beta-amino acids is presented.

The synthesis of substituted N-silyloxy aziridines through reaction of silyl nitronates and enol diazo acetates is described. The process involves in situ transformation of enol diazo acetates into donor-acceptor cyclopropenes, their [3 + 2]-cycloaddition with nitronates and subsequent rearrangement of fused isoxazolidine intermediates. Depending on the substrate type, generation of prerequisite cyclopropenes
