چکیده

Organoboron compounds are useful in asymmetric synthesis. We have developed an efficient methodology for the highly enantioselective synthesis of tertiary boronic esters from the corresponding secondary benzylic alcohols. Further stereospecific transformations of the boronic ester moiety are described including the preparation of tertiary alcohols, C-tertiary amines and tertiary arylalkanes. Several homologations of tertiary boronic esters have also been developed for the construction of quaternary stereocentres.

Stereospecific functionalizations and transformations of secondary and tertiary boronic esters.

The formation of highly enantioenriched boronic esters through both stoichiometric and catalytic methods has received much attention over the past decade. Accordingly, the transformations of the boronic ester moiety into other functional groups is of considerable interest in synthesis. Specifically, transformations which retain the high enantioenrichment of the starting boronic ester, either th...

Enantioselective construction of quaternary stereogenic centers from tertiary boronic esters: methodology and applications.

The creation of quaternary stereogenic centers with high enantioselectivity is challenging, in part, because of the high steric repulsion between the substituents on the carbon center that is generated during construction. Nevertheless, significant progress has been made towards this goal in recent years, even in conformationally flexible acyclic systems. However, whilst in many cases high e.r....

A palladium-catalysed enolate alkylation cascade for the formation of adjacent quaternary and tertiary stereocentres

The catalytic enantioselective synthesis of densely functionalised organic molecules containing all-carbon quaternary stereocentres is a challenge to modern chemical methodology research. The catalytically controlled asymmetric alpha-alkylation of ketones represents another difficult task and has been of major interest to our and other research groups in the past. We now report a palladium-cata...

1,2-Diaryl ethanes bearing 1,2-stereogenic centres show interesting biological activity but their stereocontrolled synthesis has not been reported forcing a reliance of methods involving diastereomer and enantiomer separation. We have found that this class of molecules can be prepared with very high stereocontrol using lithiation–borylation methodology. The reaction of an enantioenriched benzyl...

Synthesis of enantioenriched tertiary boronic esters by the lithiation/borylation of secondary alkyl benzoates.

Simple, secondary 2,4,6-triisopropyl benzoates (TIB esters) and secondary dialkyl N,N-diisopropyl carbamates have been reported to be resistant to deprotonation by strong bases. We have found that the combination of sBuLi (1.6 equiv) and TMEDA (6 equiv) in CPME at -60 °C enables deprotonation of unactivated secondary dialkyl TIB esters, but not the carbamates. These carbanions were reacted with...
