Efficient one-step synthesis of chiral bidentate oxazoline-alcohol ligands via a cyclic imidate ester rearrangement
摘要:
Various chiral bidentate oxazoline-alcohol ligands were obtained in a straightforward one-step synthesis via a cyclic imidate ester rearrangement. These chiral ligands were tested and compared in asymmetric diethylzinc additions to aldehydes resulting in selectivities of up to 87% ee. An interesting chirality switch was observed when a CPh2-tether instead of a CH2 was present, offering the opportunity for dual stereocontrol. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The present invention relates to a use of a cyclic imidate as a ligand for catalysis in which the ligand contains sub-structure (Y) as a minimal structural motive, wherein the carbon atoms and the nitrogen atom can be optionally substituted by a chemical substituent.

Chiral imidates were efficiently synthesized in one step and with high yields (seven examples). These chiral imidates were used as ligands in the Cu(I)-catalyzed asymmetric aziridination of methyl cinnamate and in the asymmetricdiethylzincadditions to benzaldehyde as a proof of principle. The imidate catalyst system showed high catalytic activities and induced encouraging selectivities. An X-ray

A small library of chiral imidateâferrocenylphosphane ligands was efficiently synthesized (8 examples) and evaluated in the iridium(I)-catalyzed hydrogenation of unfunctionalized and poorly functionalized olefins. These catalysts perform very well in a range of examples (yields and ee's up to 100%).
