The effects of solvent on switchable stereoselectivity: copper-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate additions using D2-symmetric biphenyl phosphoramidite ligands.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A highly enantioselective copper-catalyzed conjugate addition of diethylzinc to acyclic aromatic enones was developed with phosphoramidite ligands bearing a D(2)-symmetric biphenyl backbone. This type of reaction demonstrated that toluene and THF solvents can completely reverse the absolute configuration of the products, thus simplifying the process of accessing either enantiomer (S: 92% ee, 94% yield; R: 99% ee, 96% yield).

Phosphoramidites: marvellous ligands in catalytic asymmetric conjugate addition.
The development of an efficient catalytic system for enantioselective carbon-carbon bond formation by 1,4-addition of organometallic reagents (organolithium, Grignard, and organozinc reagents) to enones is a major challenge in organic synthesis. This Account presents the breakthrough realized in this field using chiral phosphoramidite ligands for copper-catalyzed dialkylzinc additions. Applicat...
متن کاملAn exceptional P-H phosphonite: Biphenyl-2,2'-bisfenchylchlorophosphite and derived ligands (BIFOPs) in enantioselective copper-catalyzed 1,4-additions
Biphenyl-2,2'-bisfenchol (BIFOL) based chlorophosphite, BIFOP-Cl, exhibits surprisingly high stabilities against hydrolysis as well as hydridic and organometallic nucleophiles. Chloride substitution in BIFOP-Cl proceeds only under drastic conditions. New enantiopure, sterically demanding phosphorus ligands such as a phosphoramidite, a phosphite and a P-H phosphonite (BIFOP-H) are hereby accessi...
متن کاملEnantioselective Catalytic Conjugate Addition of Dialkylzinc Reagents using Copper±Phosphoramidite Complexes; Ligand Variation and Non-linear Effects
ÐA variety of new chiral phosphoramidites was synthesised and tested in the copper-catalysed enantioselective conjugate addition of diethylzinc to cyclohexenone and chalcone in order to assess the structural features that are important for stereocontrol. A sterically demanding amine moiety is essential to reach high e.e.'s. Enantioselectivities for chalcones up to 89% and for cyclic enones up t...
متن کاملHighly enantioselective conjugate additions of potassium organotrifluoroborates to enones by use of monodentate phosphoramidite ligands.
The use of phosphoramidite ligands in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition of potassium organotrifluoroborates to various enones in the absence of water is described. A systematic search for effective catalysts has been performed by use of high-throughput screening methods. Initially, we have screened reaction conditions, catalyst precursors, and focused ligand libraries. In the ...
متن کاملAn N-linked bidentate phosphoramidite ligand (N-Me-BIPAM) for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of arylboronic acids to α,β-unsaturated ketones.
A new bidentate phosphoramidite (N-Me-BIPAM) based on Shibasaki's N-linked BINOL was synthesized. This ligand appears to be highly effective for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric conjugated addition of arylboronic acids to α,β-unsaturated enones. The reaction of ortho-substituted arylboronic acid with acyclic and cyclic enones provides the corresponding products in good yields and enantioselectivities.
