Enantioselective intramolecular hydroarylation of alkenes via directed C-H bond activation.

چکیده
Highly enantioselective catalytic intramolecular ortho-alkylation of aromatic imines containing alkenyl groups tethered at the meta position relative to the imine directing group has been achieved using [RhCl(coe)2]2 and chiral phosphoramidite ligands. Cyclization of substrates containing 1,1- and 1,2-disubstituted as well as trisubstituted alkenes were achieved with enantioselectivities >90% ee for each substrate class. Cyclization of substrates with Z-alkene isomers proceeded much more efficiently than substrates with E-alkene isomers. This further enabled the highly stereoselective intramolecular alkylation of certain substrates containing Z/E-alkene mixtures via a Rh-catalyzed alkene isomerization with preferential cyclization of the Z-isomer.

Catalytic, Enantioselective, Intramolecular Sulfenoamination of Alkenes with Anilines
A method for the catalytic, enantioselective, intramolecular sulfenoamination of alkenes with aniline nucleophiles has been developed. The method employs a chiral, Lewis basic selenophosphoramide catalyst and a Brønsted acid co-catalyst to promote stereocontrolled C-N and C-S bond formation by activation of an achiral sulfenylating agent. Benzoannulated nitrogen-containing heterocycles such as ...
متن کاملCatalytic intramolecular ketone hydroacylation: enantioselective synthesis of phthalides.
The development of a new transition-metal-catalyzed transformation can often allow a traditional reaction, perhaps one that employs stoichiometric amounts of reagents and harsh reaction conditions, to be replaced by a selective, atom economic process which proceeds under mild reaction conditions. This is certainly the case with the recent report from Dong and co-workers of a catalytic enantiose...
متن کاملMechanism of iridium-catalysed branched-selective hydroarylation of vinyl ethers: a computational study.
The iridium-catalysed branched-selective hydroarylation of vinyl ethers represents a rare example of the branched-selective hydroarylation involving the non-styrene-type alkenes. Herein, we report our DFT calculations on the mechanism of this reaction. The results show that after C-H oxidative addition, instead of the widely accepted Chalk-Harrod type mechanism, the branched-selective hydroaryl...
متن کاملPalladium-catalyzed synthesis of cyclopentane-fused benzocyclobutenes via tandem directed carbopalladation/C-H bond functionalization.
A new Pd-catalyzed reaction for the stereoselective synthesis of cyclopentane-fused benzocyclobutenes is described. These transformations likely proceed via carbamate-directed carbopalladation followed by intramolecular C-H activation of an alkylpalladium intermediate. The mechanistic relationship between these transformations and Pd-catalyzed reactions of gamma-(n-Boc-amino)alkenes with aryl b...

N-Enoxyphthalimides undergo a Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H activation initiated cyclopropanation of electron deficient alkenes. The reaction is proposed to proceed via a directed activation of the olefinic C-H bond followed by two migratory insertions, first across the electron-deficient alkene and then by cyclization back onto the enol moiety. A newly designed isopropylcyclopentadienyl ligand drastic...
