Catalytic enantioselective aza-Henry reaction with broad substrate scope.

چکیده
In situ generated azomethines from readily available precursors react with nitromethane in the presence of 120 mol % of CsOH.H2O and 12 mol % of quinine- and cinchonidine-derived quaternary ammonium chlorides to provide the corresponding aza-Henry adducts in good yields and very high selectivities. It represents the first general enantioselective aza-Henry method for azomethines derived from enolizable aldehydes, giving rise to enantiomeric excesses above 94%. In addition, the reactions with nitroethane afforded high diastereo- and enantioselectivities (syn:anti up to 95:5; up to 98% ee for syn).

Chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed allylboration of aldehydes.
The catalytic enantioselective allylation of aldehydes is a long-standing problem of considerable interest to the chemical community. We disclose a new high-yielding and highly enantioselective chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed allylboration of aldehydes. The reaction is shown to be highly general, with a broad substrate scope that covers aryl, heteroaryl, alpha,beta-unsaturated, and aliphatic ald...

A highly enantioselective aza-Henry reaction with isatin N-Boc ketimines using a Cu(II)-BOX complex as a catalyst is described. The reaction, which does not require protection of the N1 atom, provides the corresponding nitroamines bearing a quaternary stereocentre with high yields and enantiomeric excesses (up to 99.9%).

متن کاملOrganocatalytic, Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of Nonsymmetric cis-Stilbene Diamines: A Platform for the Preparation of Single-Enantiomer cis-Imidazolines for Protein–Protein Inhibition
The finding by scientists at Hoffmann-La Roche that cis-imidazolines could disrupt the protein-protein interaction between p53 and MDM2, thereby inducing apoptosis in cancer cells, raised considerable interest in this scaffold over the past decade. Initial routes to these small molecules (i.e., Nutlin-3) provided only the racemic form, with enantiomers being enriched by chromatographic separati...
متن کاملEosin Y dye-based porous organic polymers for highly efficient heterogeneous photocatalytic dehydrogenative coupling reaction
Construction of porous organic polymers (POPs) as metal-free heterogeneous organic photocatalysts for highly efficient catalytic organic transformations using visible light remains a key challenge. Herein, we report the “bottom-up” strategy to facilely synthesize two Eosin Y dye-based POP frameworks (EY-POPs) for highly efficient heterogeneous organic-photocatalysis. Owing to the high BET surfa...
