Asymmetric synthesis with “privileged” ligands*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Different types of chiral “privileged” ligands 1 and 2 in promoting enantioselective addition of allylating agents to aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes are described. Here, a new concept in the asymmetric allylation reaction is presented. Redox [Cr(Salen)] mediated addition of allyl halides to carbonyl compounds is described, and mechanistic investigations are discussed. These results open access to the fascinating area of the catalytic redox processes mediated by metallo-Salen complexes.

Copper-Catalyzed Alkene Diamination: Synthesis of Chiral 2-Aminomethyl Indolines and Pyrrolidines.
Chiral vicinal diamines, including 2-aminomethyl indolines and pyrrolidines, are useful as ligands for catalytic asymmetric reactions and are also found as important components of bioactive compounds. Herein is reported the first copper-catalyzed alkene diamination that occurs with high enantioselectivity. The substrate range is the broadest yet reported for this kind of intra-/intermolecular r...

متن کاملFerrocene phosphane-heteroatom/carbon bidentate ligands in asymmetric catalysis.
Chiral ferrocene derivatives belong to privileged ligand classes for asymmetric transition metal catalysed reactions. Hetero-bidentate phosphane ligands are hybrid ligands, which combine the properties of phosphorus with those of other donor atoms. This feature creates further asymmetry around the metal centre, which may be helpful for increasing the stereoinduction. Therefore, hetero-bidentate...
متن کاملDynamic control of chirality in phosphine ligands for enantioselective catalysis
Chirality plays a fundamental role in biology and chemistry and the precise control of chirality in a catalytic conversion is a key to modern synthesis most prominently seen in the production of pharmaceuticals. In enantioselective metal-based catalysis, access to each product enantiomer is commonly achieved through ligand design with chiral bisphosphines being widely applied as privileged liga...
