Ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of N-boc-indoles.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Highly enantioselective hydrogenation of various N-Boc-indoles proceeded successfully in the presence of the ruthenium complex generated from an appropriate ruthenium precursor and a trans-chelate chiral bisphosphine PhTRAP. Various 2- or 3-substituted indoles were converted into chiral indolines with high enantiomeric excesses (up to 95% ee). The PhTRAP-ruthenium catalyst was able to promote the hydrogenation of 2,3-dimethylindoles, giving cis-2,3-dimethylindolines with 72% ee.

Catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of naphthalenes.
The catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of heteroarenes has been intensively studied during the last decade. Nowadays, various heteroaromatics, for example, indoles, pyrroles, and quinolines, can be reduced to the corresponding chiral heterocycles with high stereoselectivity through asymmetric catalysis. Glorius and co-workers recently found that a chiral N-heterocyclic carbene–ruthenium catalys...
متن کاملCatalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of 3-substituted benzisoxazoles.
A variety of 3-substituted benzisoxazoles were reduced with hydrogen using the chiral ruthenium catalyst, {RuCl(p-cymene)[(R,R)-(S,S)-PhTRAP]}Cl. The ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation proceeded in high yield in the presence of an acylating agent, affording α-substituted o-hydroxybenzylamines with up to 57% ee. In the catalytic transformation, the N-O bond of the benzisoxazole substrate is reduc...
متن کاملCatalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of N-Boc-imidazoles and oxazoles.
Substituted imidazoles and oxazoles were respectively hydrogenated into the corresponding chiral imidazolines and oxazolines (up to 99% ee). The highly enantioselective hydrogenation was achieved by using the chiral ruthenium catalyst, which is generated from Ru(η(3)-methallyl)(2)(cod) and a trans-chelating chiral bisphosphine ligand, PhTRAP. This is the first successful catalytic asymmetric re...
متن کاملBrønsted acid activation strategy in transition-metal catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of N-unprotected imines, enamines, and N-heteroaromatic compounds.
Asymmetric hydrogenation plays an important role in organic synthesis, but that of the challenging substrates such as N-unprotected imines, enamines, and N-heteroaromatic compounds (1H-indoles, 1H-pyrroles, pyridines, quinolines, and quinoxalines) has only received increased attention in the past three years. Considering the interaction modes of a Brønsted acid with a Lewis base, Brønsted acids...
متن کاملThe highly enantioselective addition of indoles and pyrroles to isatins-derived N-Boc ketimines catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids.
The first asymmetric aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction of indoles and pyrroles with isatin-derived N-Boc ketimines catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids is reported. In general, derivatives of substituted 3-amino-2-oxindoles were obtained with excellent enantioselectivities and high yields.
