Catalytic asymmetric synthesis using chirality-switchable helical polymer as a chiral ligand*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Single-handed PQXphos, i.e., helical poly(quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)s bearing diarylphosphino pendant groups, served as remarkable chiral ligands in palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of styrenes and asymmetric biaryl synthesis by Suzuki–Miyaura coupling, affording up to 98 % enantiomeric excess (e.e.) in both reactions. A palladium complex of high-molecular-weight variant (1000mer) of PQXphos could be reused eight times by virtue of the formation of an insoluble polymer complex. PQXphos underwent solvent-dependent inversion of the helical sense, enabling production of either of two enantiomeric products using a single PQXphos.

Dynamic control of chirality in phosphine ligands for enantioselective catalysis
Chirality plays a fundamental role in biology and chemistry and the precise control of chirality in a catalytic conversion is a key to modern synthesis most prominently seen in the production of pharmaceuticals. In enantioselective metal-based catalysis, access to each product enantiomer is commonly achieved through ligand design with chiral bisphosphines being widely applied as privileged liga...

Asymmetric 1,4-addition reactions with nitroalkenes are valuable because the resulting chiral nitro compounds can be converted into various useful species often used as chiral building blocks in drug and natural product synthesis. In the present work, asymmetric 1,4-addition reactions of arylboronic acids with nitroalkenes catalyzed by a rhodium complex with a chiral diene bearing a tertiary bu...

Modafinil [2-[(diphenylmethyl)sulfinyl]acetamide] is used clinically in the treatment of narcolepsy and sleeping disorders. The synthesis of modafinil, begins with the reaction of benzhydrol and thioglycolic acid in trifluoroacetic acid to afford benzhydrylsulfinyl acetic acid. The reaction of acid with thionyl chloride in benzene followed by treatment with ammonium hydroxide gave acetamide...

A divergent enantioselective approach to hapalindole-type alkaloids is described. The route features a ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of a ketone via DKR to construct the chiral trans-1indolyl-2-isopropenylcyclohexane skeleton and a switchable sequence of methylation and acetylation/ aldol reaction to access a chiral quaternary stereocenter. (+)-Hapalindole Q (1, 13 steps, 5.9% ov...

Synthesis of enantiomerically pure isoxazolidine via an asymmetric 1,3- dipolar cycloaddition reaction of nitrone with electron-deficient dipolarophile was described. The process occurs at room temperature in aqueous ethanol as a green solvent and in the presence of a bidendate bis(imine)–Cu(II)triflate complex as catalyst. The reaction mechanism is discussed on the basis of the assignment of t...
