Lewis acid catalysis, sulfonyl

The reaction of alkynyllithium compounds with alkoxycarbene tungsten complexes leads to anionic propargyl tungsten complexes (Figure 2.33 see also Figure 3.9). These intermediates are stable at low temperatures and react upon Lewis acid catalysis with aldehydes or A -sulfonyl imines to yield five-membered heterocycles [280]. Oxidative methoxycarbonylation [375] of the intermediate vinyl tungsten complex, followed by elimination of methanol leads to pyrroles or furanes (Figure 2.33 Entry 6, Table 2.22). [Pg.65]

Extension of this work to the diastereoselective synthesis of y-lactams from N-sulfonyl aldimines [93] and ketimines [94] was subsequently reported. Scheldt and coworkers disclosed an enantioselective version (up to 98% ee) from reactive hydrazones in the initial demonstration of cooperative NHC/Lewis acid catalysis using a bulky, chiral triazolium salt and catalytic Mg(OBu )2 [95]. Rovis and coworkers synthesized y-lactams 109 enantioselectively using a chiral N-C Fs triazolium salt (Scheme 18.19). A weak carboxylate base was sufficient to partially deprotonate the precatalyst 108 in situ, and the carboxylic acid formed could activate the N-Ar imine acceptor 107 via protonation [lib]. In all these cases, a fine balance must exist between sufficient electrophilicity vis-a-vis the competing enal and reversible addition of the carbene to the imine/hydrazone/iminium or to the Lewis acid. [Pg.509]

An enantioselective Strecker reaction involving Brpnsted acid catalysis uses a BINOL-phosphoric acid, which affords ees up to 93% in hydrocyanations of aromatic aldimines in toluene at -40 °C.67 The asymmetric induction processes in the stereoselective synthesis of both optically active cis- and trans-l-amino-2-hydroxycyclohexane-l -carboxylic acids via a Strecker reaction have been investigated.68 A 2-pyridylsulfonyl group has been used as a novel stereocontroller in a Strecker-type process ees up to 94% are suggested to arise from the ability of a chiral Lewis acid to coordinate to one of the sulfonyl (g)... [Pg.10]
