چکیده

Chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) promote the asymmetric formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition of alkylarylketenes with β,γ-unsaturated α-ketocarboxylic esters and amides. Divergent diastereoselectivity is observed in this process, with γ-aryl-β,γ-unsaturated α-ketocarboxylic esters and amides giving preferentially syn-dihydropyranones (up to 68 : 32 dr syn : anti, up to 98% ee), while γ-alkyl-derivatives generate anti-dihydropyranones (up to 18 : 82 dr syn : anti, up to 75% ee).

Organocatalytic enantioselective γ-aminoalkylation of unsaturated ester: access to pipecolic acid derivatives.

The direct γ-carbon functionalization of α,β-unsaturated esters via N-Heterocyclic Carbene (NHC) catalysis is disclosed. This catalytically generated nucleophilic γ-carbon undergoes highly enantioselective additions to hydrazones. The resulting δ-lactam products can be readily transformed to optically enriched pipecolic acid derivatives.

A dual Lewis base activation strategy for enantioselective carbene-catalyzed annulations.

A dual activation strategy integrating N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis and a second Lewis base has been developed. NHC-bound homoenolate equivalents derived from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes combine with transient reactive o-quinone methides in an enantioselective formal [4 + 3] fashion to access 2-benzoxopinones. The overall approach provides a general blueprint for the integration of carb...
