Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric addition of arylboronic acids to γ-phthalimido-substituted-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid esters: an approach to γ-amino acids
摘要:
Efficient Rh-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of arylboronic acids to ethyl-gamma-phthalimidocrotonate by using bis-sulfoxide ligand affords gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) derivatives with high enantioselectivities (90-96% ee) under mild conditions. Optically pure (S)-Baclofen and (S)-Rolipram have been prepared successfully through this synthetic route. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

γ-amino butyric acid derivatives were synthesized in good enantioselectivities via the Cu-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate reduction of γ-phthalimido-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid esters using Cu(OAc)2·H2O as a catalyst precursor, (S)-BINAP as a ligand, PMHS as a hydride source, and t-BuOH as an additive. The methodology has been applied successfully to the enantioselective synthesis of a chiral pharmaceutical
