Nesmeyanov Institute of Organo-Element Compounds, Russian Academy of Sciences, 117813, Moscow, Vavilov 28, Russian Federation Abstract— Titanium(IV)(salen) and vanadium(V)(salen) complexes are both known to form catalysts for asymmetric cyanohydrin synthesis. When a mixture of titanium and vanadium complexes derived from the same or different salen ligands is used for the asymmetric addition of trimethylsilyl cyanide to benzaldehyde, the absolute configuration of the product and level of asymmetric induction can only be explained by in situ formation of a catalytically active heterobimetallic complex, and is not consistent with two monometallic species acting cooperatively. Combined use of complexes containing chiral and achiral salen ligands demonstrates that during the asymmetry inducing step of the mechanism, the aldehyde is coordinated to the vanadium rather than the titanium ion. The titanium complexes also catalyse the asymmetric addition of ethyl cyanoformate to aldehydes, a reaction for which vanadium(V)(salen) complexes are not active. For this reaction, use of a mixture of titanium and vanadium(salen) complexes resulted in a complete loss of catalytic activity, a result which again can only be explained by in situ formation of a heterometallic complex. Both the titanium and vanadium based catalysts also induce the asymmetric addition of potassium cyanide / acetic anhydride to aldehydes. For this reaction, combined use of chiral and achiral complexes indicated that during the asymmetry inducing step of the mechanism, the aldehyde was coordinated to titanium rather than vanadium, a result which contrasts with the observed results when trimethylsilyl cyanide was used as the cyanide source. © 2007 Elsevier Science.

Results and Discussion 2 Mechanistic studies on catalysts 1 and 2 demonstrated that 2.1 Synthesis of achiral salen complexes of titanium and two metal(salen) units were involved in the catalysis and vanadium were consistent with either of the transition state structures shown in Figure 1, where one metal ion acts as a chiral To allow further investigation of the mechanism of Lewis acid, and the other as a chiral cyanide source, with asymmetric cyanohydrin synthesis induced by metal(salen) cyanide then being transferred between the two metals onto complexes, it was decided to combine the use of both 21 enantiomers of catalysts 1 and 2 with the corresponding the coordinated carbonyl compound. Whilst catalyst 2 is 24 more enantioselective than catalyst 1, it accelerates the rate complexes derived from achiral salen ligand 3. Ligand 3 of addition of trimethylsilyl cyanide to aldehydes to a much was converted into the corresponding bimetallic- lower extent. Reactions involving catalyst 1 are typically titanium(salen) complex 4 using the same synthetic route complete in 30 minutes, whereas those involving catalyst 2 developed for the synthesis of catalyst 1 (Scheme 1). require at least 16 hours to reach completion under However, treatment of ligand 3 with vanadyl sulfate in the identical reaction conditions. presence of air, using the methodology developed for the synthesis of catalyst 2,8 did not result in spontaneous We recently reported 22 however, that when the enantiomer oxidation of the vanadium ion and formation of the desired vanadium(V)(salen) complex 5; rather the corresponding of catalyst 1 (( S,S )-1) was mixed with catalyst 2, so as to 25 prepare a solution containing equimolar amounts of vanadium(IV)(salen) complex was isolated and could then be oxidized to the desired vanadium(V) complex 5 by titanium and vanadium ions, the resulting mixture catalysed 19 the formation of the ( S)-enantiomer of mandelonitrile treatment with cumene hydroperoxide. trimethylsilyl ether, a result which was inconsistent with the two catalysts acting independently or with scrambling 2.2 Structural analysis of bimetallic salen complexes of the salen ligand between the two metals. These results could only be explained by catalysis involving at least two In monometallic octahedral complexes, the planar, trans - configuration of a salen ligand is usually energetically metal ions, and indicated that catalysis by two different 26 metal ions was more favourable than catalysis by either preferred (Figure 2). However, in bis -bridged complexes homometallic system. Kinetics experiments indicated that as occurs in complexes 1 and 4, this is not possible as the two bridging oxygens must adopt positions cis to one catalysis by the heterometallic system was slower than 27 22 another. The salen ligand can then adopt either cis -α or catalysis using catalyst 1 alone, which was consistent β 28 with the in situ formation of a heterobimetallic complex as cis - configurations, with the latter being preferred in all Tetrahedron 3 cases known to date. 29,30 The cis -β configuration of a salen A X O O ligand is chiral, and two enantiomeric structures (∆ or Λ) are possible. For bimetallic complexes bearing two N X X O M N N M X N M X different salen ligands, there are thus four possible O N O stereoisomeric configurations ( ∆∆, ΛΛ, ∆Λ and Λ∆ ) of the two salen ligands.

However, feasible catalytic asymmetric Strecker reactions for the large-scale production of enantioenriched a-amino acids are rare. Here we report a scalable catalytic asymmetric Strecker reaction that uses an accessible chiral variant of oligoethylene glycol as the catalyst and KCN to generate a chiral cyanide anion. Various a-amido sulphone substrates (alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl) can be transformed into the optically enriched Strecker products, a-amino- nitriles, with excellent yields and enantioselectivities. Moreover, the robust nature of the catalyst enables a ‘one-pot’ synthesis of enantiomerically pure a-amino acids starting from a-amido sulphones and simple catalyst recycling. These features can make this protocol easily adaptable to the practical synthesis of unnatural a-amino acids. 1 Department of Chemistry, Sungkyunkwan University, 300 Cheoncheon, Jangan, Suwon, Gyeonggi 440-746, Korea. w Present address: Max-Planck-Institut fu¨r Kohlenforschung, Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platz 1, D-45470 Mu¨lheim an der Ruhr, Germany.

  • And Furo[3,2-C]Pyridine N-Oxides with Trimethylsilyl Cyanide
    1014 Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 1998, Vol. 19, No. 9 Notes Reaction of Pyrano- and Furo[3,2-c]pyridine N-Oxides with Trimethylsilyl Cyanide Sung Yun Cho, Seung Kyu Kang, Kyung-Ho Park, Sung Soo Kim, Hyae-Gyeong Cheon, Ki-Jun Hwang, and Eul Kgun Yum* Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology, P.O. Box 107, Yusong, Taejon 305-600, Korea Received April 23, 1998 Since the cyanated heterocycles can be transformed to the The ratio of isomers were easily determined by *H NMR corresponding carboxamides, carboxylic acids, and esters.1 spectra and HPLC. The NMR of lb showed two doublet The regioselective cyanation of heterocycles is very important proton of pyridine moiety. On the other hand, the NMR to find pharmaceutical agents. Recently, there are many of 1c showed two singlet proton of pyridine moiety. reports for the regioselective cyanation of various Surprisingly, only 2b was obtained from the cyanation of heterocycles such as pyridine,2'4 pyrazole,5,6 pyrimidine,7 2a. The cyanation of 3a and 4a were also examined in and imidazole.8 The general cyanation methods use organo order to know the scope of selectivity. The reactions or inorganic cyanide with pyridine quaternary derivatives.9,10 provided predominantly 5-cyanopyrano[3,2-c]pyridine However, only two papers reported cyanation to fused derivatives in moderate yields. On the other hand, the heterocycles.11,12 cyanation of 5a gave 5b and 5c in an isomeric ratio of 1:1. We have been interested in regioselective cyanation of The regioseletive cyanation to pyrano[3,2-c] pyridine N- various fused heterocycles to synthesize pharmaceutically oxide derivatives depend on the substitutent of pyrano[3,2-c] interesting compounds.
