چکیده

A three component catalyst system entailing an amino acid (O(t)Bu-L-threonine), a hydrogen bond donor (sulfamide), and an amine base (DMAP) allows α-branched aldehyde addition to nitroalkenes in good to high yield and excellent ee. Importantly, the lowest reported catalyst loading (5.0 mol%) and aldehyde stoichiometry (1.2-2.0 equiv) is demonstrated and in most instances the best current product profile is observed.

Ring-contraction strategy for the practical, scalable, catalytic asymmetric synthesis of versatile γ-quaternary acylcyclopentenes.

A simple protocol for the practical, scalable, catalytic asymmetric synthesis of γ-quaternary acylcyclopentenes in up to 91% overall yield and 92% ee has been developed. The reaction sequence employs a palladium-catalyzed enantioselective alkylation reaction and exploits the unusual stability of β-hydroxy cycloheptanones to achieve a general and robust method for performing two-carbon ring cont...

Asymmetric Michael addition mediated by novel cinchona alkaloid-derived bifunctional catalysts containing sulfonamides.

Novel cinchona alkaloid-derived bifunctional organocatalysts containing sulfonamide groups were utilized to promote Michael addition of bicyclic alpha-substituted beta-ketoesters to nitroolefins. The desired Michael adducts with all-carbon quaternary centers were constructed in high yield and with excellent enantioselectivity, demonstrating the great potential of cinchona alkaloid-derived sulfo...

Enantioselective Michael addition of 3-aryl-substituted oxindoles to methyl vinyl ketone catalyzed by a binaphthyl-modified bifunctional organocatalyst.

The enantioselective conjugate addition reaction of 3-aryl-substituted oxindoles with methyl vinyl ketone promoted by binaphthyl-modified bifunctional organocatalysts was investigated. The corresponding Michael adducts, containing a quaternary center at the C3-position of the oxindoles, were generally obtained in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 91% ee).

Solvent-Dependent Enantioswitching in the Michael Addition of α,α-Disubstituted Aldehydes to Maleimides Organocatalyzed by Mono-N-Boc-Protected Cyclohexa-1,2-Diamines

Enantiomerically pure mono-N-Boc-protected trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamines are used as organocatalysts for the enantioselective conjugate addition of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes to maleimides. Using a single enantiomer of the organocatalyst, both enantiomeric forms of the resulting Michael adducts bearing a new quaternary stereocenter are obtained in high yields, only by changing the reaction so...
