Heterocycle-based organocatalysts

Indollne-2-carboxylic acid [79815-20-6] M 163.2, m 177"(dec), [a] -114" (c 1, N HCl). It is purified as the racemate (see [78348-24-0] in Heterocyclic Compound, Chapter 4). The S-(-)-hydrochloride [82923-76-0] M 199.7, m 133"(dec), [a] -70" (c 1, EtOH) crystallises from Et20/propan-2-ol. It is a proline based organocatalyst which promotes the enantioseleetive formation of cyclopropanes by reaction between 2-(dimethyl- 4-sulfanylidene)-l-phenyl-ethanone (for stable sulfonium ylides see Ratts Yao J Org Chem 31 1185 1966) and but-2-enals in high yields and very high stereoselectivity involving Direct Electrostatic Activation (DEA) [Kunz Mac Millan Chem Soc 127 3240 2005.]... [Pg.719]

Sterically and electronically tuneable and bifunctional organocatalysts based on diamides derived from proline are particularly selective in reactions of heterocyclic ketones with aldehydes.109... [Pg.15]

Abstract. Within the context of Lewis base catalysis /V-heterocyclic carbenes represent an extremely versatile class of organocatalyst that allows for a great variety of different transformations. Starting from the early investigations on benzoin, and later Stetter reactions, the mechanistic diversity of /V-hctcrocyclic carbenes, depending on their properties, has led to the development of several unprecedented catalytic reactions. This article will provide an overview of the versatile reactivity of A-heterocyclic carbenes. [Pg.183]

Recently, the reactivity (base, nucleophile, catalyst) and the role in modem organic synthesis of N-heterocyclic carbenes (cychc carbenes bearing at least one amino substituent) has been set-up by Ender et al. [60,61]. The possible utilization of NHCs as ligands for transition-metal catalyst [62,63] and as organocatalyst has been emphasized [61]. The inversion of the normal reactivity (umpolung) induced via NHCs has been extensively discussed. Classical carbon-carbon-bond-forming reactions (benzoin condensation, Stetter reaction, etc.) have been re-examined using ionic liquids as pre-catalysts in the presence of bases. [Pg.441]

Since the bulk properties of PLA are highly dependent on the stereoregularity or the tacticity of the polymer, i the development of catalysts for rac-lactide (or meso-lactide) polymerization has been focused on achieving stereoselectivity. 2 2 " Numerous organocatalysts such as A-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and phosphine-based compounds " have been investigated for the controlled ROP of lactide. [Pg.273]

A range of metal-free organocatalysts have been used to good effect in the kinetic resolution of alcohols. A number of enantiomerically pure 4-aminopyridine-based catalysts effect kinetic resolution with high S values. These include the conforma-tionallyrestricted2,3-dihydroimidazo[l,2-a]pyridine (12.98) and the atropiso-meric catalyst (12.99). N-heterocyclic carbenes also function as nucleophilic... [Pg.346]

A combination of organocatalysts, the prolinol silylether 17b and an A-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), was used by Cordova and co-workers [64] for the related asymmetric P-boration of cinnamaldehyde. While the secondary amine served to activate the enal through the formation of a chiral iminium ion intermediate, the NHC functioned as a Lewis base forming the nucleophilic adduct with diborate. The product was treated in situ with a stabilized phosphorus ylide affording a synthetically useful chiral allylboronate (Scheme 14.22). A 50 mol% loading of amine was needed to reach reasonable enantioselectivity (60% ee). Lowering of the amine loading to 10 mol% caused a drop in the enantioselectivity (34% ee). [Pg.510]

For a long period, chiral Lewis acids were the most studied catalysts. Only recently have chiral bases, Br0nsted acids, and N-heterocyclic carbenes been utilized as effective organocatalysts for the oxa-hetero-Diels-Alder reaction. [Pg.1148]
