Catalytic Asymmetric Cycloadditions of Silyl Nitronates Bearing α-Aryl Group
摘要:
1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of 2-alkylacroleins or atropaldehyde with triisopropylsilyl nitronates bearing an alpha-ary] group produced 3-aryl-2-isoxazolines having a chiral quaternary center in up to 94% ee and up to 88% yield with the aid of Corey's oxazaborolidine catalyst. Specifically, the TIPS nitronate with an alpha-(p-methoxyphenyl) group gave mainly the 2-isoxazolines having an all-carbon quaternary center.
A highly efficient manganese-promoted oxidative cyclization of unsaturated oximes to afford the corresponding 4,5-dihydroisoxazoline alcohols was developed. A very low loading (generally 0.1–0.2 mol-%) of Mn(acac)3 (acac = acetylacetonate) promoted the oxidative cyclization through the direct incorporation of molecular oxygen present in air (open flask) at room temperature.

This paper describes a palladium-catalyzed oxime assisted intramolecular dioxygenation of alkenes by using 1 atm of air as the sole oxidant under extremely mild conditions, which demonstrated the feasibility of incorporating atmospheric oxygen into synthetically useful products under 1 atm of air at room temperature.
