Kinetic Resolution of 2-Oxazolidinones via Catalytic, Enantioselective N-Acylation
摘要:
Kinetic resolution of racemic 2-oxazolidinones via catalytic, enantioselective N-acylation has been achieved for the first time and with outstanding selectivities.
(-)-Menthone, an inexpensive chiral auxiliary, was used to prepare both enantiomers of alpha-amino acids, aminoalcohols, or oxazolidinones. The sequence includes the S(N)2' displacement by a cuprate reagent and a Curtius rearrangement as key steps.

contrast to alcohols and amines, racemic lactams and thiolactams cannot be resolved directly via enzymatic acylation or classical resolution. Asymmetric N-acylation promoted by amidine-based catalysts, particularly Cl-PIQ 2 and BTM 3, provides a convenient method for the kinetic resolution of these valuable compounds and often achieves excellent levels of enantioselectivity in this process.

Asymmetrichydrogenation of 4-substituted cyclic enamido esters catalyzed by a rhodium–TangPhos complex provides an efficient method for the synthesis of chiral 4-substituted oxazolinones with excellent yields and good enantioselectivities. The products are valuable chiral building blocks and the applications as chiral auxiliaries and pharmaceuticals are well-known.

Optically pure new Evans auxiliary analogs, (4R)- and (4S)-4-(2-naphthyl)oxazolidin-2-one, have been synthesized by using the Sharpless catalytic asymmetric aminohydroxylation reaction (Sharpless AA). The concise two-step synthesis involves a unique solution-to-solid Sharpless AA process and new neat cyclization conditions.
An asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of 2-oxazolones in the presence of a chiral diamine ruthenium catalyst with potassium formate as a hydrogen source and potassium carbonate as an additive in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol is described. A series of chiral 2-oxazolidinones were obtained with 29%–95% yields and 86%–>99% ee's. Furthermore, gram-scale synthesis of chiral 2-oxazolidinone and its downstream derivatizations
