Thioketone-Directed Rhodium(I) Catalyzed Enantioselective C-H Bond Arylation of Ferrocenes ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-12181-x OPEN Thioketone-directed rhodium(I) catalyzed enantioselective C-H bond arylation of ferrocenes Zhong-Jian Cai1, Chen-Xu Liu1, Qiang Wang 1, Qing Gu 1 & Shu-Li You 1 Planar chiral ferrocenes have received great attention in both academia and industry. Although remarkable progresses have been made over the past decade, the development of efficient and straightforward methods for the synthesis of enantiopure planar chiral ferro- 1234567890():,; cenes remains highly challenging. Herein, we report a rhodium(I)/phosphonite catalyzed thioketone-directed enantioselective C-H bond arylation of ferrocenes. Readily available aryl iodides are used as the coupling partners in this transformation, leading to a series of planar chiral ferrocenes in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 86% yield, 99% ee). Of particular note, heteroaryl coupled ferrocenes, which are difficult to access with previous approaches, can be obtained in satisfactory results. 1 State Key Laboratory of Organometallic Chemistry, Center for Excellence in Molecular Synthesis, Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 345 Lingling Lu, Shanghai 200032, China.

  • Total Synthesis of (+)-Leinamycin
    Total Synthesis of (+)-Leinamycin Tohru Fukuyama *,•õ and Yutaka Kanda •õ †Department of Chemistry, Rice University, TTokyo Research Laboratories, Kyowa Hakko Kogyo Co .,Ltd., Abstract : A total synthesis of (+)-leinamycin (I), a unique sulfur-containing antitumor antibiotic, is described. The present synthesis features a stereocontrolled construction of the macrolactam followed by a spiroannulation of the hitherto unprecedented dithiolanone ring. 1. Introduction Leinamycin (1) has recently been isolated from a fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. by a Kyowa Hakko group and has been shown to exhibit potent antitumor activities against experimental tumors (ref. 1). Leinamycin preferentially inhibits DNA synthesis in Bacillus subtilis and causes single strand scission of plasmid DNA in vitro in the presence of thiol cofactors (ref. 2). The relative configuration of leinamycin was determined by an X-ray crystallographic analysis (ref. 3). The absolute configuration was deduced as shown on the basis of the fact that partially racemized D-alanine was obtained by acid hydrolysis of leinamycin (ref. 4). The unique structural features of leinamycin include the 1,3-dioxo-1,2-dithiolane moiety which is fused in a spiro fashion to an 18-membered lactam and the extensively conjugated thiazole ring. No other natural products with such an unusual dithiolanone moiety have been isolated to date. These synthetically challenging structural features combined with the interesting antitumor activities prompted us to initiate synthetic studies on leinamycin at the beginning of 1989. Completion of our first total synthesis of leinamycin was achieved at the end of 1992 and has recently been reported as a communication (ref. 5, 6). Leinamycin 2.

Two of our chemists who had done no more than investigate the cracking of minute amounts of trithioacetone found themselves the object of hostile stares in a restaurant and suffered the humiliation of having a waitress spray the area around them with a deodorant. The odours defied the expected effects of dilution since workers in the laboratory did not find the odours intolerable...and genuinely denied responsibility since they were working in closed systems.

Abstract Acyclic diazodicarbonyl compounds react at room temperature with cycloaliphatic thioketones, e.g. 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3- thioxocyclobutanе-1-one and adamantanethione, via a cascade process in which the key step is a 1,5-electrocyclization of the inter- mediate thiocarbonyl ylide leading to tetrasubstituted spirocyclic 1,3-oxathioles. The most reactive diazodicarbonyl compound was diazoacetylacetone. In the case of dimethyl diazomalonate competitive 1,3-electrocyclization yielded the corresponding thiirane at elevated temperature, which after spontaneous desulfurization produced a tetrasubstituted alkene. To explain the observed tempera- ture dependence of the main reaction product type obtained from dimethyl diazomalonate and 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3- thioxocyclobutanе-1-one as well as to verify reversibility of the thiocarbonyl ylide and 1,3-oxathiole interconversion, the calcula- tions of the energy profile for the transformation of 1,3-oxathiole to alkene were performed at the DFT PBE1PBE/6-31G(d) level.

Keywords: [3 + 2]-cycloadditions; diazoalkanes; diradicals; 1,3-dithiolanes; reaction mechanisms; thioketones Abstract Reactions of dihetaryl and aryl/hetaryl thioketones with 2-diazopropane, diazoethane, and (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane were studied at variable temperature. The experiments showed that reactions with 2-diazopropane carried out at –75 °C occur mainly via the initially formed, relatively stable 1,3,4-thiadiazolines as products of the [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of the diazo dipole onto the C=S bond. The latter decompose only at higher temperature (ca. −40 °C) to generate thiocarbonyl S-isopropanide. In the absence of the starting thioketone, the corresponding thiiranes and/or ethene derivatives, formed from them via spontaneous desulfurization, are the main products. In contrast, reactions with diazoethane occurred predominantly via initially formed diradicals, which in cascade processes gave sterically crowded 4,4,5,5-tetrahetaryl-1,3-dithiolanes as major products. Finally, the reaction of dihetaryl thioke- tones with (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane occur smoothly at −75 °C leading to the corresponding 4,4,5,5-tetrahetaryl-1,3-dithiolanes as the exclusive [3 + 2]-cycloadducts formed via a cascade of postulated diradicals.
