  • The Synthesis of Molecules Containing Quaternary Stereogenic Centers Via the Intramolecular Asymmetric Heck Reaction
    The Synthesis of Molecules Containing Quaternary Stereogenic Centers via the Intramolecular Asymmetric Heck Reaction Reported by Eric P. Gillis April 19, 2007 INTRODUCTION The enantioselective synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters continues to be a challenging endeavor and is a field of intense interest and development.1,,,,2 3 4 5 From the perspective of methods development, the asymmetric synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters poses a distinct challenge due to the sterically congested environment in which C-C bonds must be formed and stereochemical information must be transferred. Existing asymmetric methods have been applied successfully in desymmetrization processes that transform prochiral quaternary centers into stereodefined quaternary centers. However, for processes in which a quaternary stereocenter is created directly via a C-C bond forming reaction, only a few asymmetric reactions have been fruitful. The diversity in the array of methods that exist for the synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters is necessitated in part because of the number of distinct quaternary stereocenter architectures that are possible (Scheme 1). The construction of acyclic quaternary stereocenters is particularly challenging due to the number of degrees of freedom associated with these structures. However, promising results for the construction of these stereocenters via allylation,6 allylic alklyation,7 and Michael addition8 have been reported recently. For the synthesis of cyclic quaternary stereocenters a number of methods have been employed successfully including the intramolecular Heck reaction,9 alkylation,10 arylation,11 and Michael addition12. Fused bicyclic quaternary stereocenters are generally accessed via the desymmetrization of a prochiral quaternary center. In this regard, theoretically any SCHEME 1.

  • Sulfenylphosphinoferrocenes: Novel Planar Chiral Ligands in Enantioselective Catalysis*
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 78, No. 2, pp. 257–265, 2006. doi:10.1351/pac200678020257 © 2006 IUPAC Sulfenylphosphinoferrocenes: Novel planar chiral ligands in enantioselective catalysis* Silvia Cabrera, Olga García Mancheño, Ramón Gómez Arrayás, Inés Alonso, Pablo Mauleón, and Juan C. Carretero‡ Departamento de Química Orgánica, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, 28049 Madrid, Spain Abstract: Structurally well-defined transition-metal complexes of 1-phosphino-2-sulfenyl- ferrocene (Fesulphos ligands) act as highly efficient catalysts in a variety of mechanistically different transformations. Excellent enantioselectivities were achieved in Pd-catalyzed allylic substitutions, desymmetrization of meso-heterobicyclic alkenes by Pd-catalyzed addition of dialkylzinc reagents, Pd-catalyzed Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with N-acryloyl oxazolidinones, and in Cu-catalyzed formal aza-Diels–Alder reaction of Danishefsky diene to N-sulfonyl aldimines. Keywords: sulfenylphosphinoferrocenes; Fesulphos; enantioselective; Pd-catalyzed; allylic substitutions; desymmetrization; Danishefsky diene; N-sulfonyl aldimines; Cu-catalyzed. INTRODUCTION Two main structural concepts have proved to be greatly successful in the design of chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis: The reduction of the possible diastereomeric transition states by using bidentate C2-symmetrical P/P, N/N, or O/O chiral ligands (e.g., BINAP, bisoxazolines, salen, or BINOL-based ligands) and the use of mixed bidentated ligands equipped with strong and weak donor heteroatom pairs [1]. This second strategy takes advantage of the different electronic properties associated with each heteroatom-metal bond (e.g., the trans influence) which, playing in combination with appropriate steric effects around the metal-coordinating heteroatoms, can create an asymmetric environment capable of inducing high levels of enantiocontrol. Some bidentate P/N chiral ligands such as phosphine–oxazoline systems and QUINAP constitute excellent examples of this strategy [2].

We describe here the development of diphenylphosphinoalkanoic acid based chiral bisphosphine 1234567890():,; ligands, which are successfully applied to the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allenylation of racemic pyrazol-5-ones. The reaction affords C-allenylation products, optically active pyrazol- 5-ones bearing an allene unit, in high chemo- and enantioselectivity, with DACH-ZYC-Phos- C1 as the best ligand. The synthetic potential of the C-allenylation products is demonstrated. Furthermore, the enantioselectivity observed with DACH-ZYC-Phos-C1 is rationalized by density functional theory studies. 1 Laboratory of Molecular Recognition and Synthesis, Department of Chemistry, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, P.
