Direct and efficient N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed hydroxymethylation of aldehydes.
The N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed coupling of several aldehydes with paraformaldehyde is reported, directly providing the corresponding valuable hydroxymethyl ketones. Results of first mechanistic experiments for this remarkably selective transformation are also provided.
متن کاملN-Heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed direct cross-aza-benzoin reaction: Efficient synthesis of α-amino-β-keto esters
An efficient catalytic synthesis of α-amino-β-keto esters has been newly developed. Cross-coupling of various aldehydes with α-imino ester, catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbene, leads chemoselectively to α-amino-β-keto esters in moderate to good yields with high atom efficiency. The reaction mechanism is discussed, and it is proposed that the α-amino-β-keto esters are formed under thermodynamic ...
متن کاملAccess to spirocyclic oxindoles via N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed reactions of enals and oxindole-derived α,β-unsaturated imines.
A diastereoselective access to β-lactam fused spirocyclic oxindoles and related compounds bearing all carbon spiro centers is described. This N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed process employed challenging β,β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated imines to react with enals.
متن کاملInsights into the Competing Mechanisms and Origin of Enantioselectivity for N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Catalyzed Reaction of Aldehyde with Enamide
Hydroacylation reactions and aza-benzoin reactions have attracted considerable attention from experimental chemists. Recently, Wang et al. reported an interesting reaction of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed addition of aldehyde to enamide, in which both hydroacylation and aza-benzoin reactions may be involved. Thus, understanding the competing relationship between them is of great intere...
متن کاملNickel(0)-catalyzed intramolecular reductive coupling of alkenes and aldehydes or ketones with hydrosilanes.
A nickel(0)-catalyzed reductive coupling of aldehydes and simple alkenes with hydrosilanes has been developed. A variety of silyl-protected 1-indanol derivatives were prepared in a highly diastereoselective manner (up to >99 : 1 dr) by employing a combination of nickel(0)/N-heterocyclic carbene and triethylsilane. The present system was also applied to a reductive coupling with ketones. Prelimi...
