Development of a generic activation mode: nucleophilic a-substitution of ketones via oxy-allyl cations†
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oxy-allyl cations have been known as transient electrophilic species since they were first proposed as intermediates in the Favorskii rearrangement in 1894. Since that time, they also have been used as a mode of activation for [4 + 3] cycloadditions in a variety of natural product syntheses. In this manuscript, we describe a method for the interception of oxy-allyl cations with a diverse range of common nucleophiles, thereby demonstrating the value of this intermediate as a generic mode of activation. This simple, mild, room temperature protocol allows for the formation of a variety of high value carbon–carbon and carbon– heteroatom bonds that are readily incorporated within a series of cyclic and acyclic ketone systems. Initial efforts into the development of an enantioselective catalytic variant are also described.

Oxy-Allyl Cation Catalysis: An Enantioselective Electrophilic Activation Mode.
A generic activation mode for asymmetric LUMO-lowering catalysis has been developed using the long-established principles of oxy-allyl cation chemistry. Here, the enantioselective conversion of racemic α-tosyloxy ketones to optically enriched α-indolic carbonyls has been accomplished using a new amino alcohol catalyst in the presence of electron-rich indole nucleophiles. Kinetic studies reveal ...
متن کاملPalladium/N-heterocyclic carbene catalysed regio and diastereoselective reaction of ketones with allyl reagents via inner-sphere mechanism
The palladium-catalysed allylic substitution reaction is one of the most important reactions in transition-metal catalysis and has been well-studied in the past decades. Most of the reactions proceed through an outer-sphere mechanism, affording linear products when monosubstituted allyl reagents are used. Here, we report an efficient Palladium-catalysed protocol for reactions of β-substituted k...

Alkenyl-to-allyl 1,4-rhodium(I) migration enables the generation of nucleophilic allylrhodium(I) species by remote C-H activation. This new mode of reactivity was employed in the diastereoselective reaction of arylboron reagents with substrates containing a 1,3-enyne tethered to a ketone, to give products containing three contiguous stereocenters. The products can be obtained in high enantiosel...
متن کاملPd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylations via C-H activation of N-allyl imines with glycinates.
Herein is reported the first example of palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA) reactions involving 2-aza-π-allyl palladium intermediates. The 2-aza-π-allyl complex was generated via a novel mode of activation of N-allyl imines. Pd-catalyzed C(sp3)-H activation of N-allyl imines and subsequent nucleophilic attack by glycinates delivered vicinal diamino derivatives as the sole re...
