Enantioselective ruthenium-mediated synthesis of (-)-indolizidine 223AB
摘要:
Triphenylphosphine/CCl4-mediated cyclization of amino alcohol 17 proceeded smoothly, with single inversion, to provide (-)-indolizidine 223AB 4. Amino alcohol 17 was prepared by thermolysis of azide 16, followed by DIBAL reduction of the intermediate imine. Symchiral aldehyde 12 and phosphonium salt 15, precursors to 16, were prepared by BINAP.Ru*-mediated hydrogenation of the corresponding beta-keto esters. A simplified procedure allows this hydrogenation to be carried out in a Parr shaker, at 80-degrees-C and 50 psig of H-2.

Tartaric acid-modified Raney nickel (TA-MRNi) is a chiral heterogeneous catalyst for the hydrogenation of prochiral ketones. An optical yield (OY) of 86% with methyl acetoacetate (1) as a substrate was improved to 94–96% by employing β-keto esters having a proper bulkiness at the γ -position. The γ -bulkiness effect contributes to a high intrinsic enantio-differentiating ability (factor-i) of the TA-MRNi catalysis. Through the study, we found the best substrate, γ -cyclopropyl-β-keto ester, the hydrogenation of which resulted in 98.6% OY. This further improvement in the OY was ascribed to a smaller contribution of non-enantio-differentiating hydrogenation (N-site catalysis) due to the substrate-specific activation of the enantio-differentiating hydrogenation by the chiral modifier. The OY of the hydrogenation of 1 was analyzed by comparing with well-behaved β-keto esters, and the contribution of the factor-i and the N-site to the OY value was evaluated to deduce the origin of the enantiodifferentiation.

of organocopper reagents to camphor-derived, conjugated N-enoyl-sultams gave saturated and olefinic β-silylcarboxyl derivatives with high diastereodifferentiation. Nondestructive removal of the chiral auxiliary followed by oxidative Si-C bond cleavage furnished enantiomerically pure acetate-derived aldols and propionate-derived ‘anti’ -aldols (via silyl-directed α-methylation).
Highly enantioselective reduction of β-ketoesters with BINAP-Ru catalyst can be effected at 50 psig H2 and 80°, using a Parr shaker. A simplified preparation of the BINAP-Ru catalyst is reported.
