Metal-templated enantioselective enamine/H-bonding dual activation catalysis.

چکیده
An octahedral bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complex catalyzes the enantioselective α-amination of aldehydes with catalyst loadings down to 0.1 mol%. In this metal-templated design, the metal serves as a structural center and provides the exclusive source of chirality, whereas the catalysis is mediated through the organic ligand sphere.

Enantioselective organocatalytic singly occupied molecular orbital activation: the enantioselective alpha-enolation of aldehydes.
Over the last 40 years, thousands of asymmetric catalytic reactions have been invented in accord with the increasing need for enantiopure medicinal agents and the rapid advancement of the field of chemical synthesis.1 Remarkably, however, the vast majority of these enantioselective processes are derived from a small number of long-established activation modes (e.g., Lewis acid catalysis,2 σ-bon...
متن کاملEnantioselective a-Alkylation of Aldehydes by Photoredox Organocatalysis: Rapid Access to Pharmacophore Fragments from b- Cyanoaldehydes**
The combination of photoredox catalysis and enamine catalysis has enabled the development of an enantioselective a-cyanoalkylation of aldehydes. This synergistic catalysis protocol allows for the coupling of two highly versatile yet orthogonal functionalities, allowing rapid diversification of the oxonitrile products to a wide array of medicinally relevant derivatives and heterocycles. This met...

The discovery of new strategies that emulate nature!s capacity to rapidly construct architectural complexity continues to be a central focus for research and development in the chemical sciences. Recently, our laboratory disclosed the concept of organocascade catalysis, a new chemical paradigm that combines two modes of catalyst activation (iminium and enamine catalysis) into one mechanism, the...
متن کاملEnantioselective organocatalysis using SOMO activation.
The asymmetric alpha-addition of relatively nonpolar hydrocarbon substrates, such as allyl and aryl groups, to aldehydes and ketones remains a largely unsolved problem in organic synthesis, despite the wide potential utility of direct routes to such products. We reasoned that well-established chiral amine catalysis, which activates aldehydes toward electrophile addition by enamine formation, co...
متن کاملThe versatile roles of ammonium salt catalysts in enantioselective reduction and alkylation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes: iminium catalysis, enamine catalysis and acid catalysis.
A novel strategy for highly efficient utilization of chiral ammonium salt catalysts has been described in this paper. Three kinds of catalytic functions including iminium catalysis, enamine catalysis, and acid catalysis of chiral ammonium salt catalysts, have been achieved in the enantioselective reduction and alkylation reaction of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with alcohols.
