Diastereoselective and enantioselective conjugate addition reactions utilizing α,β-unsaturated amides and lactams
نویسنده
چکیده
The conjugate addition reaction has been a useful tool in the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. The utility of this reaction has been demonstrated in the synthesis of many natural products, materials, and pharmacological agents. In the last three decades, there has been a significant increase in the development of asymmetric variants of this reaction. Unfortunately, conjugate addition reactions using α,β-unsaturated amides and lactams remain underdeveloped due to their inherently low reactivity. This review highlights the work that has been done on both diastereoselective and enantioselective conjugate addition reactions utilizing α,β-unsaturated amides and lactams.

متن کاملCu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric boron conjugate addition to α,β-unsaturated imines in water.
Enantioselective conjugate addition of bis(pinacolato)diboron to α,β-unsaturated imines proceeds smoothly in water in the presence of a chiral copper(II) complex consisting of Cu(OAc)2 and chiral 2,2'-bipyridine. The corresponding β-boryl imines, which were oxidized to β-hydroxy imines, further leading to γ-amino alcohols, were obtained in high yields and high enantioselectivities.
متن کاملNHC-mediated enantioselective formal [4 + 2] cycloadditions of alkylarylketenes and β,γ-unsaturated α-ketocarboxylic esters and amides.
Chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) promote the asymmetric formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition of alkylarylketenes with β,γ-unsaturated α-ketocarboxylic esters and amides. Divergent diastereoselectivity is observed in this process, with γ-aryl-β,γ-unsaturated α-ketocarboxylic esters and amides giving preferentially syn-dihydropyranones (up to 68 : 32 dr syn : anti, up to 98% ee), while γ-alkyl-deriv...
