RESUMO
The syntheses of hexabrominated closo-carborates decorated with different chiral Binol-derived phosphonates and their conjugate acids are described. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals a polymeric structure for the sodium salt with the anionic units connected by [B-Br-Na-OâP]+ linkages. For the acid, coordination of the proton to the phosphonate's PâO oxygen atom is assumed. The pKa value was estimated by combining experiments and computations. Application of these Brønsted acids as chiral catalysts in an imino-ene and a Mukaiyama-Mannich reaction was moderately successful.
RESUMO
An asymmetric synthesis of chiral 2,5-diketopiperazines by the Ugi-4CR/cyclization is exhibited. The employment of catalytic anionic chiral Co(III) complexes delivered α-propiolyl aminoamides in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (31 examples, up to 95% ee). The following treatment of Ugi-adducts with PPh3 leads to chiral 2,5-DKPs without significant loss of enantioselectivities (26 examples, up to 91% ee).
RESUMO
A desymmetrizing silylation of aromatic diols is reported. The previously unknown asymmetric silyl ether formation of phenol derivatives is achieved by applying List's counteranion directed silylation technique. A silylium-ion-like silicon electrophile generated from an allylic silane paired with an imidodiphosphorimidate (IDPi) enables enantioselective discrimination of achiral 1,1'-biaryl-2,6-diols. The enantioselectivity of that desymmetrization is further improved by a downstream kinetic resolution, converting the monosilylated minor enantiomer into the corresponding, again achiral bissilylated diol.
RESUMO
A hybrid palladium catalyst assembled from a chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) and thioamide enables a highly efficient and enantioselective ß-C(sp3 )-H functionalization of thioamides (up to 99 % yield, 97 % ee). A kinetic resolution of unsymmetrical thioamides by intermolecular C(sp3 )-H arylation can be achieved with high s-factors. Mechanistic investigations have revealed that stereocontrol is achieved by embedding the substrate in a robust chiral cavity defined by the bulky CPA and a neutral thioamide ligand.
RESUMO
An unusual hybrid palladium catalyst containing an anionic chiral CoIII complex and a chiral phosphoramidite ligand shows a high capacity for catalyzing asymmetric thioamide-directed C(sp3 )-H arylation and delivers excellent yield and enantioselectivity (up to 99 % yield, 99 % ee). Significant synergy between the chiral ligand and the anion in terms of stereochemical control was observed. Mechanistic investigations have revealed both the nature of the C-H activation and the origin of the enantioselectivity.
RESUMO
The chiral Co(III)-complex-templated Brønsted acids were found to be efficient bifunctional phase-transfer catalysts for the highly enantioselective bromocyclization of protected tryptamines with readily available N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) under an air atmosphere. The 3-bromohexahydropyrrolo[2,3- b]indoles, which are key building blocks of cyclotryptamine alkaloids, were thus obtained in up to 95% yield and 93.5:6.5 er.
RESUMO
A highly enantioselective interrupted Povarov reaction of salicylaldimines and 2,3-dihydrofuran was developed, through the elegant Brønsted acid catalysis of anionic chiral Co(iii) complexes. This reaction affords the cis-4-aminofuranobenzopyran derivatives with up to 95% yield, >20 : 1 dr and 96 : 4 er. Moreover, a one-pot three-component procedure of salicylaldehydes, anilines, and 2,3-dihydrofuran proves to be successful, with higher reaction efficiency.
RESUMO
Brønsted acids of anionic chiral CoIII complexes act as bifunctional phase-transfer catalysts to shuttle the substrates across the solvent interface and control stereoselectivity. The diastereomeric chiral CoIII -templated Brønsted acids, with the same chiral ligands, enabled a switch in the enantioselective bromoaminocyclization of olefins to afford the two enantiomers of 2-substituted pyrrolidines with high enantioselectivities (up to 99:1 e.r.).
RESUMO
The sodium salts of anionic chiral cobalt(III) complexes (CCC(-) Na(+) ) have been found to be efficient catalysts of the asymmetric Povarov reaction of easily accessible dienophiles, such as 2,3-dihydrofuran, ethyl vinyl ether, and an N-protected 2,3-dihydropyrrole, with 2-azadienes. Ring-fused tetrahydroquinolines with up to three contiguous stereogenic centers were thus obtained in high yields, excellent diastereoselectivities (endo/exo up to >20:1), and high enantioselectivities (up to 95:5 e.r.).
RESUMO
We describe a catalytic asymmetric iminium ion cyclization reaction of simple 2-alkenylbenzaldimines using a BINOL-derived chiral N-triflyl phosphoramide. The corresponding 1-aminoindenes and tetracyclic 1-aminoindanes are formed in good yields and high enantioselectivities. Further, the chemical utility of the obtained enantiopure 1-aminoindene is demonstrated for the asymmetric synthesis of (S)-rasagiline.
