Unprecedented synergistic effects between weak Lewis and Brønsted acids in Prins cyclization.

چکیده
Novel synergistic effects between Lewis and Brønsted acids in Prins cyclization are reported. Non-reactive Lewis acids and non-reactive Brønsted acids, which failed to perform Prins cyclization when used alone, have shown remarkable synergistic effects when used in combination to perform the reaction successfully.

Ligand- and Brønsted acid/base-switchable reaction pathways in gold(I)-catalyzed cycloisomerizations of allenoic acids.
Gold-promoted cyclizations of 2,2-diaryl substituted γ-allenoic acids were found to give three isomeric lactone products, each of which could be obtained selectively by exploiting Brønsted acid/base and ligand effects. Simple 5-exo-trig cyclization products were favored by strong donor ligands or base additives, whereas weak donor ligands and a Brønsted acid additive gave isomeric enelactones r...

Enantioselective control of the chirality of a tertiary a-carbon in the products of a Nazarov cyclization of enones is challenging because the reaction involves an enantioselective proton transfer process. We herein report the use of cooperative catalysis using Lewis acids and chiral Brønsted acids to control the stereochemistry of the tertiary a-carbon in the products of this reaction. Specifi...
متن کاملEnantioselective bromocycloetherification by Lewis base/chiral Brønsted acid cooperative catalysis.
A binary catalyst system for the enantioselective bromocycloetherification of 5-arylpentenols is described. The combination of an achiral Lewis base and a chiral Brønsted acid affords good enantioselectivities for the cyclization of Z configured 5-arylpentenols to form bromomethyltetrahydrofurans. The constitutional site selectivity is highly dependent upon the aromatic substituent and the conf...
متن کاملEnantioselective Prins cyclization: BINOL-derived phosphoric acid and CuCl synergistic catalysis.
The first catalytic enantioselective Prins cyclization is disclosed. The reaction is catalyzed by the combination of a chiral BINOL-derived bis-phosphoric acid and CuCl. The process consists of a tandem Prins/Friedel-Crafts cyclization that affords the hexahydro-1H-benzo[f]isochromenes products with three new contiguous stereogenic centers in high yields, and good enantio- and excellent diaster...
متن کاملTerminating platinum-initiated cation-olefin reactions with simple alkenes.
The en masse cyclization of polyolefins into polycyclic terpenoids by cyclase enzymes (e.g. squalene to hopene), is a biosynthetic reaction of particular fascination to chemists. Noteworthy recent additions to synthetic mimics of the cyclase enzymes are asymmetric methods that include Brønsted–Lewis acids (BLA), masked equivalents of Br and I, organocatalysts, and electrophilic metal catalysts....
