Simultaneous Construction of Axial and Planar Chirality by Gold/TY ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24678-5 OPEN Simultaneous construction of axial and planar chirality by gold/TY-Phos-catalyzed asymmetric hydroarylation ✉ ✉ ✉ Pei-Chao Zhang 1, Yin-Lin Li 1, Jiafeng He 1, Hai-Hong Wu 1 , Zhiming Li2 & Junliang Zhang 2,3 The simultaneous construction of two different chiralities via a simple operation poses considerable challenge. Herein a cationic gold-catalyzed asymmetric hydroarylation of ortho- 1234567890():,; alkynylaryl ferrocenes derivatives is developed, which enable the simultaneous construction of axial and planar chirality. The here identified TY-Phos derived gold complex is responsible for the high yield, good diastereoselectivity (>20:1 dr), high enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) and mild conditions. The catalyst system also shows potential application in the synthesis of chiral biaryl compounds. The cause of high enantioselectivity of this hydroarylation is investigated with density functional theory caculation. 1 Shanghai Key Laboratory of Green Chemistry and Chemical Processes, School of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering, East China Normal University, Shanghai, China. 2 Department of Chemistry, Fudan University, Shanghai, China. 3 State Key Laboratory of Organometallic Chemistry, Shanghai Institute of ✉ Organic Chemistry, CAS, Shanghai, China. email: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2021) 12:4609 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24678-5 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24678-5 s an effective and exceptionally versatile strategy, the undergo a related asymmetric desymmetric aromatization, and development of catalytic asymmetric intramolecular (3) the inherent difficulties to asymmetric gold catalysis, which A 1–10 hydroarylation for the construction of axial and stem from its linear coordination geometry and the outer-sphere planar11–13 chirality or helicenes14–20 has received much nature of Au(I)-catalysis44–50.

For instance, the derivative 1aa. A series of commercially available chiral ligands groups of Alcarazo1,14,16,18 and Tanaka6,15,17 extensively studied were investigated (please find more details in the Supplementary the Au-catalyzed and Rh-catalyzed intramolecular alkyne Information (SI) Supplementary Fig. S3). Unfortunately, catalysts hydroarylation to achieve enantioselective synthesis of axially used by Urbano-Carreño11, Shibata12, or Uemura10 all failed to chiral biaryls and helicenes, respectively (Fig. 1a).

(S,S)-Ph-BPE catalyzed cyclization to construct the planar naphthalene-fused (L2) could give the product 2aa in quite low enantioselectivity ferrocenes in 2016 (Fig. 1a).

And the simultaneous Sadphos, with a more σ-donating ligand providing a higher construction of two different types of chiralities is now flourishing enantioselectivity and catalytic activity. Notably, Au(TY-Phos)Cl development (Fig. 1b)44–51. could be easily synthesized in a gram scale via a five-steps in “one-pot” synthesis (for more details, see the SI).

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.

    PLANAR CHIRAL LEWIS ACIDS AND LEWIS PAIRS BASED ON FERROCENE by JIAWEI CHEN A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Chemistry written under the guidance of Professor Frieder Jäkle and approved by Newark, New Jersey May, 2014 © 2014 Jiawei Chen ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION PLANAR CHIRAL LEWIS ACIDS AND LEWIS PAIRS BASED ON FERROCENE by Jiawei Chen Dissertation Advisor: Professor Frieder Jäkle Organoboranes have been widely used for catalytic transformations, polymerizations, small molecule activation, anion and glycol sensing and construction of electronic materials. These remarkable applications commonly benefit from the electron-deficient nature of tricoordinate boron, i.e., its empty p- orbital can accommodate a lone pair of electrons or participate in conjugation of extended π-systems. Therefore, approaches to enhance the Lewis acidity of the boron center are desirable, and different strategies have been introduced with this aim, including (1) installation of electron withdrawing pendant groups such as pentafluorophenyl groups; (2) generation of cationic borenium species and (3) incorporation of tricoordinate boron into anti-aromatic systems such as borole derivatives. Recently, much effort has been directed to the preparation of the so- called “Frustrated Lewis Pair” (FLP) and the application of their unquenched relativity for catalytic transformations. However, chiral versions of highly Lewis acidic organoboranes remain scarce. On the other hand, planar chiral ferrocenes have proven to provide rigid frameworks for transition metal ligands such as ii phosphines and amines, which have been successfully applied to the asymmetric hydrogenation of alkenes, ketones and other processes.

  • 402 the Development of an Asymmetric Tsuji Allylation
    402 CHAPTER FOUR The Development of an Asymmetric Tsuji Allylation Reaction† 4.1 Introduction The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters stands as a significant challenge in synthetic chemistry.1 Despite the demanding sterics, a number of useful catalytic transformations, including Diels-Alder,2 Heck,3 cyclopropanation,4 alkylation,5 acylation,6 and desymmetrization7 reactions, have been demonstrated to form quaternary stereocenters with good levels of enantioinduction. Although palladium-catalyzed enantioselective allylation chemistry has long been an important asymmetric catalytic tool,8 only recently has palladium (II) -allyl chemistry been used for the formation of quaternary stereocenters. The vast majority of palladium (II) allylic alkylations studied by Trost, Helmchen, Pfaltz, and others form tertiary stereocenters by the attack of malonate anions on prochiral 1,3-disubstituted allyl fragments. Helmchen has shown that such reactions with palladium phosphinooxazoline (PHOX) complexes typically occur via an outer sphere malonate attack at the allyl termini.9 The tendency of palladium to give the less branched products in allylic alkylations with differentially substituted allyl termini makes the formation of quaternary stereocenters on the allyl fragment problematic.10 An alternative, less common strategy in allylic alkylation is the use of prochiral nucleophiles. A quaternary stereocenter may formed on the prochiral nucleophile when it possesses three distinct carbon substituents. A priori, such reactions requiring the remote † This work was performed in collaboration with Justin Mohr, Dr. Andrew Harned, Dr. Kousuke Tani, Dr. Zoltán Novák, Sandy Ma, Nathaniel Sherden, Mike Krout, and Ryan McFadden. 403 chiral ligand to discriminate between the prochiral faces of the incoming nucleophile seem improbable.
