Hydrogen-Bond-Activated Palladium-Catalyzed Allylic Alkylation via Allylic Alkyl Ethers: Challenging Leaving Groups
摘要:
C-O bond cleavage of allylic alkyl ether was realized in a Pd-catalyzed hydrogen-bond-activated allylic alkylation using only alcohol solvents. This procedure does not require any additives and proceeds with high regioselectivity. The applicability of this transformation to a variety of functionalized allylic ether substrates was also investigated. Furthermore, this methodology can be easily extended to the asymmetric synthesis of enantiopure products (99% ee).

Allylicalcohols were directly used in Pd‐catalyzed allylicalkylations of simpleketones under mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded smoothly at 20 °C by the concerted action of a Pd catalyst, a pyrrolidine co‐catalyst, and a hydrogen‐bonding solvent, and does not require any additional reagents. A computational study suggested that methanol plays a crucial role in the formation of the

The dual Pd/proline-catalyzed α-allylation reaction of a variety of enolizable ketones and aldehydes with allylic alcohols is described. In this reaction, the choice of a large-bite angle ligand Xantphos and proline as the organocatalyst was essential for generation of the crucial π-allyl Pd intermediate from allylic alcohol, followed by nucleophilic attack of the enamine formed in situ from the corresponding
