An asymmetric ammonia synthon for Michael additions
摘要:
The highly diastereoselective 1,4-addition of lithiated chiral amine 1 to alpha,beta-unsaturated esters, followed by hydrogenolysis of the benzylic-type C-N bonds of the 1,4-adducts, provides an asymmetric ammonia synthon for Michael additions. Under optimized conditions, lithiated 1 adds to alpha,beta-unsaturated tert-butyl esters in dimethoxyethane at -63-degrees-C in high yield with very high diastereoselectivity. Small, large, functionalized, and chiral beta-ester substituents are amenable, with (S)-1 consistently adding to (E)-3 from the top as drawn in Table II. Hydrogenolysis liberates the beta-amino esters with typically 95-99% ee.
