Enantioselective catalysts aldol addition reactions

Oxamborolidenes. There are noteworthy advances in the design, synthesis, and study of amino acid-derived oxazaborolidene complexes as catalysts for the Mukaiyama aldol addition. Corey has documented the use of complex 1 prepared from A-tosyl (S)-tryptophan in enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol addition reactions [5]. The addition of aryl or alkyl methyl ketones 2a-b proceeded with aromatic as well as aliphatic aldehydes, giving adducts in 56-100% yields and up to 93% ee (Scheme 8B2.1, Table 8B2.1). The use of 1-trimethylsilyloxycyclopentene 3 as well as dienolsilane 4 has been examined. Thus, for example, the cyclopentanone adduct with benzaldehyde 5 (R = Ph) was isolated as a 94 6 mixture of diastereomers favoring the syn diastereomer, which was formed with 92% ee, Dienolate adducts 6 were isolated with up to 82% ee it is important that these were shown to afford the corresponding dihydropyrones upon treatment with trifuoroacetic acid. Thus this process not only allows access to aldol addition adducts, but also the products of hetero Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions. [Pg.514]

Impressive advances in catalytic, enantioselective propionate aldol addition reactions have also been documented since 1992. Mikami has described a Ti(lV) catalyst readily prepared from BINOL and TiC O Pr. A propionate aldol addition process by Evans utilizes complexes prepared with bisoxazoline ligands and Sn(II) and Cu(II). In analogy to the acetate aldol... [Pg.530]

Recently, Chen has synthesized and resolved chiral suberyl carbenium ions and utilized these as catalysts for enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol addition reactions (Eq. (8.22)) [34]. Thus the reaction of the ethyl acetate-derived silyl ketene acetal with benzaldehyde in the presence of 10-20 mol% of catalyst afforded the corresponding adduct in 50% ee. The enantioselectivity of the process proved sensitive to the nature of the cation, consistent with observations previously highlighted by Denmark in related studies [35]. Although at the current level of development the selectivities are modest, the study documents a novel class of metal-free Lewis acidic agents. [Pg.242]

Keck has reported a catalytic enantioselective acetate aldol addition reaction that utilizes a H(IV) catalyst 79 that is readily prepared in situ (Eq. 8B2.20) [26]. The reaction protocol is noteworthy as a consequence of its simplicity of execution thus BINOL, TiCl2( )2 ... [Pg.528]

Enantioselective Catalysis of the Aldol Addition Reaction. There are also several catalysts that can effect enantioselective aldol addition. The reactions generally involve enolate equivalents, such as silyl enol ethers, that are unreactive toward the carbonyl component alone, but can react when activated by a Lewis acid. The tryptophan-based oxazaborolidinone 15 has proven to be a useful catalyst.148... [Pg.125]

Considerable effort has been devoted to finding Lewis acid or other catalysts that could induce high enantioselectivity in the Mukaiyama reaction. As with aldol addition reactions involving enolates, high diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity requires involvement of a transition state with substantial facial selectivity with respect to the electrophilic reactant and a preferred orientation of the nucleophile. Scheme 2.4 shows some examples of enantioselective catalysts. [Pg.88]

The advances that have taken place over the past five years in catalytic, enantioselective aldol addition reactions is evident in a number of important respects. The types of transition metals and their complexes that function competently as catalysts have been expanded considerably. Thus, in addition to B(III), Ag(I), Au(I), Sn(II), and La(III), chiral catalysts prepared from Cu(II), Ti(IV), Ln(III), Si(IV), Pt(II) and Pd(II) have been introduced. The expansion in the use of transition metals has taken place hand-in-hand with the design and synthesis of new bidentate and tridentate organic ligands based on nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus donors. Additionally, whereas the older methods primarily relied on the use of Lewis-acids for the activation of... [Pg.513]

Antibody Catalysis. Recent advances in biocatalysis have led to the generation of catalytic antibodies exhibiting aldolase activity by Lemer and Barbas. The antibody-catalyzed aldol addition reactions display remarkable enantioselectivity and substrate scope [18]. The requisite antibodies were produced through the process of reactive immunization wherein antibodies were raised against a [Tdiketone hapten. During the selection process, the presence of a suitably oriented lysine leads to the condensation of the -amine with the hapten. The formation of enaminone at the active site results in a molecular imprint that leads to the production of antibodies that function as aldol catalysts via a lysine-dependent class I aldolase mechanism (Eq. 8B2.12). [Pg.523]

Evans et al. recently reported the use of structurally well-defined Sn(II) Lewis acids for the enantioselective aldol addition reactions of a-heterosubstituted substrates [47]. These complexes are readily assembled from Sn(OTf)2 and C2-symmetric bis(oxazoline) ligands. The facile synthesis of these ligands commences with optically active 1,2-diamino alcohols, which are themselves readily available from the corresponding a-amino acids. The Sn(II)-bis(oxazoline) complexes were shown to function optimally as catalysts for enantioselective aldol addition reactions with aldehydes and ketone substrates that are suited to putatively chelate the Lewis acid. For example, use of 10 mol % Sn(II) catalyst, thioacetate, and thiopropionate derived silyl ketene acetals added at -78 °C in dichloromethane to glyoxaldehyde to give hydroxy diesters in superb yields, enantioselectivity, and diastereoselectivity (Eq. 27). The process represents an unusual example wherein 2,3-ant/-aldol adducts are obtained stereoselec-tively. [Pg.406]

A related Mukaiyama aldol catalyst system reported by Keck prescribes the use of a complex that is prepared in toluene from (R)- or (S)-BINOL and Ti(0 Pr)4 in the presence of 4 A molecular sieves. In work preceding the aldol addition reaction, Keck had studied this remarkable catalyst system and subsequently developed it into a practical method for enantioselective aldehyde allylation [95a, 95b, 95c, 96]. Because the performance of the Ti(IV) complex as an aldol catalyst was quite distinct from its performance as a catalyst for aldehyde allylation, a careful examination of the reaction conditions was conducted. This meticulous study describing the use of (BINOL)Ti(OiPr)2 as a catalyst for aldol additions is noteworthy since an extensive investigation of reaction parameters, such as temperature, solvent, and catalyst loading and their effect on the enantiomeric excess of the product was documented. For example, when the reaction of benzal-dehyde and tert-butyl thioacetate-derived enol silane was conducted in dichlo-romethane (10 mol % catalyst, -10 °C) the product was isolated in 45% yield and 62% ee by contrast, the use of toluene as solvent under otherwise identical conditions furnished product of higher optical purity (89% ee), albeit in 54% yield. For the reaction in toluene, increasing the amount of catalyst from 10 to 20 mol %... [Pg.968]

In addition to the efficiency exhibited by catalyst 165 with a broad spectrum of aldehydes in acetate aldol addition reactions, this catalyst has been shown to function competently in enantioselective additions of dienol silane 87. The requisite dienolate is readily synthesized from 2,2,6-trimethyl-4H-l,3-dioxin-4-one 84 (diketene-i-acetone adduct) by deprotonation with LDA and quenching with MejSiCl (Eq. 24). Dioxinone 84 is commercially available at a nominal price in addition, the silyl dienolate 87 is easily purified by distillation and stable to prolonged storage. The addition reactions of 87 with aldehydes were conducted with 1-3 mol % of 165 at 0 °C (Eq. 25). A variety of aldehydes serve as substrates and give aldol adducts in 79-97% yields and up to 99% ee after a single recrystallization. [Pg.973]

The addition of ketone-derived enol silanes and aldehydes in the presence of 184 at -78 °C in propionitrile afforded the aldol adducts in excellent yields as well as diastereo- and enantioselectivity (Eq.29) [106]. The versatility of this catalyst is evidenced by the fact that enol silanes derived from aliphatic methyl and ethyl ketones as well as acetophenone are substrates for the aldol addition reaction. [Pg.976]

Control of Enantioselectivity. In the previous sections, the most important factors in determining the syn or anti stereoselectivity of aldol and Mukaiyana reactions were identified as the nature of the transition state (cyclic versus acyclic) and the configuration (E or Z) of the enolate. Additional factors affect the enantioselectivity of aldol additions and related reactions. Nearby chiral centers in either the carbonyl compound or the enolate can impose facial selectivity. Chiral auxiliaries can achieve the same effect. Finally, use of chiral Lewis acids as catalysts can also achieve enantioselectivity. Although the general principles of control of the stereochemistry of aldol addition reactions have been developed for simple molecules, the application of the principles to more complex molecules and the selection of the optimum enolate system requires analysis of the individual cases.Not infrequently, one of the enolate systems proves to... [Pg.83]

The aldol reaction is one of the most useful carbon-carbon bond forming reactions in which one or two stereogenic centers are constructed simultaneously. Diastereo-and enantioselective aldol reactions have been performed with excellent chemical yield and stereoselectivity using chiral catalysts [142]. Most cases, however, required the preconversion of donor substrates into more reactive species, such as enol silyl ethers or ketene silyl acetals (Scheme 13.45, Mukaiyama-type aldol addition reaction), using no less than stoichiometric amounts of silicon atoms and bases (Scheme 13.45a). From an atom-economic point of view [143], such stoichiometric amounts of reagents, which afford wastes such as salts, should be excluded from the process. Thus, direct catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction is desirable, which utilizes unmodified ketone or ester as a nucleophile (Scheme 13.45b). Many researchers have directed considerable attention to this field, which is reflected in the increasing... [Pg.174]

In 1991, Yamamoto reported a simple catalyst for aldol reactions consisting of a chiral (acyloxy)borane (CAB) complex of tartrate-derived ligands (241, Scheme 4.28) [120-122]. This work, along with that of Mukaiyama and Kobayashi, stunningly showed that remarkably simple complexes for catalytic enantioselective aldol addition reactions could be identified. Both enantiomers of the catalyst are readily accessible from the enantiomers of tartaric acid. The syn aldol adducts were observed to be preferentially formed regardless of the enolate geometry (242 vs. 244) with high levels of enantios-... [Pg.128]

The enantioselective aldol addition reactions mediated by BINOL/TiCl (Ot-Pr)4, j complexes as catalysts are highly attractive because of the convenient accessibility of the catalyst components along with the unique substrate scope they display [130-135]. These were developed by Keck and Mikami. Two catalyst preparations, involving BINOL and either TiCl2(Oi-Pr)2 [130] or Ti(Oi-Pr)4 [133], have been dociunented. Both of these furnish aldol adducts with excellent yields and enantioselectivities (Scheme 4.31). The fact that these compounds can mediate aldol additions to a wide range of functionalized aldehydes, such as trifluoroacetaldehyde [132] and chloroacetalde-hyde [131], is impressive, as these are rare substrates in catalytic, enantioselective aldol addition reactions (Scheme 4.32). Additionally, aldehydes such... [Pg.130]

Kobayashi has reported a remarkable series of chiral Zr(IV) complexes as catalysts for enantioselective aldol addition reactions [136, 137]. These are readily prepared from 3,3 -dihalo-BINOL derivatives and Zr(OtBu)4. The putative zirconium complex 266 is reported to mediate the formation of anti aldol adducts with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity (Scheme 4.33). It is noteworthy that under optimal conditions, the reactions are carried out in aqueous propanol/toluene solvent mixtures. As such, the process is tolerant of and indeed thrives in, the presence of water. A demonstration of its use was reported in the synthesis of khafrefungin (269), an inhibitor of fungal sphingolipid synthesis [137]. [Pg.131]

In the early 1970s, i-proline (222) was shown to function as a chiral catalyst for enantioselective aldol addition reactions (Chapter 4) [156]. With the aim of expanding the scope of proline-catalyzed asymmetric aldol additions [157], List reported that proline also catalyzes enantioselective Mannich reactions (Equation 19) [158]. Whereas most catalytic enantioselective Mannich reactions with aldehydes typically afford the corresponding syn products, Barbas, Tanaka, and Houk demonstrated that the complementary anti products such as 232 could be obtained highly selectively in the presence of the methyl-substituted proline catalyst 229 (99% ee, 98 2 dr. Scheme 11.33) [159]. It was proposed that these transformations proceeded through the energetically favored enamine 230 and transition state structure 231. [Pg.368]

As with aldol and Mukaiyama addition reactions, the Mannich reaction is subject to enantioselective catalysis.192 A catalyst consisting of Ag+ and the chiral imino aryl phosphine 22 achieves high levels of enantioselectivity with a range of N-(2-methoxyphenyljimines.193 The 2-methoxyphenyl group is evidently involved in an interaction with the catalyst and enhances enantioselectivity relative to other A-aryl substituents. The isopropanol serves as a proton source and as the ultimate acceptor of the trimethyl silyl group. [Pg.142]

It is well known that acrylates undergo transition metal catalyzed reductive aldol reaction, the silanes R3SiH first reacting in a 1,4 manner and the enolsilanes then participating in the actual aldol addition.57,58 A catalytic diastereoselective version was discovered by arrayed catalyst evaluation in which 192 independent catalytic systems were screened on 96-well microtiter plates.59 Conventional GC was used as the assay. A Rh-DuPhos catalyst turned out to be highly diastereoselective, but enantioselectivity was poor.59... [Pg.518]

The studies summarized above clearly bear testimony to the significance of Zr-based chiral catalysts in the important field of catalytic asymmetric synthesis. Chiral zircono-cenes promote unique reactions such as enantioselective alkene alkylations, processes that are not effectively catalyzed by any other chiral catalyst class. More recently, since about 1996, an impressive body of work has appeared that involves non-metallocene Zr catalysts. These chiral complexes are readily prepared (often in situ), easily modified, and effect a wide range of enantioselective C—C bond-forming reactions in an efficient manner (e. g. imine alkylations, Mannich reactions, aldol additions). [Pg.223]

A review of enantioselective aldol additions of latent enolate equivalents covers a variety of Sn", boron, Ti, Cu, lanthanide, and Lewis base catalysts. Asymmetric aldol reactions using boron enolates have been reviewed (401 references). ... [Pg.11]
