ABSTRACT
Catalytic asymmetric cross-coupling of imines constitutes a particularly desirable method for the synthesis of chiral vicinal diamines directly from readily available achiral precursors. The potential of this method lies in the possibility of utilizing a variety of imines as reacting partners. However, the realization of highly stereoselective cross-coupling of two different imines proved to be a formidable challenge. Herein we report an unprecedented catalytic asymmetric cross-coupling reaction that tolerates a variety of ketimines and aldimines as nucleophiles and electrophiles, respectively. The realization of this reaction resulted from the development of a new chiral ammonium catalyst, which was guided by insights from studies of catalyst-substrate interactions. With a 0.5 mol % loading of an organocatalyst, this reaction proceeded in a highly diastereo- and enantioselective manner to afford a diverse range of chiral vicinal diamines as nearly single stereoisomers. This catalytic reaction establishes a new approach for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral vicinal diamines.
