Phosphine oxides, resolution

The high diffusivity and low viscosity of sub- and supercritical fluids make them particularly attractive eluents for enantiomeric separations. Mourier et al. first exploited sub- and supercritical eluents for the separation of phosphine oxides on a brush-type chiral stationary phase [28]. They compared analysis time and resolution per unit time for separations performed by LC and SFC. Although selectivity (a) was comparable in LC and SFC for the compounds studied, resolution was consistently... 

Kinetic resolution of 2-hydroxy(acetoxy)alkanephosphonates or phosphine oxides... 

Other phosphorous compounds, as shown in Table 8, were resolved by the same procedure. The three isomeric phosphinates 27b-d containing a methyl group attached to the aryl substituent could also be resolved, irrespective of the methyl position. From the related phosphine oxides 28a d, however, only those with R=H (28a) and R=m-CH (28c) could be well resolved no satisfactory resolution could be obtained for the other isomers of 28. The efficiency of the optical resolution of alkylaryl-substituted sulfoxides and selenoxides was found to depend similarly on the type of substitution on the aryl ring. 

Abou-Basha and Aboul-Enein [22] presented an isocratic and simple HPLC method for the direct resolution of the clenbuterol enantiomers. The method involved the use of a urea-type CSP made of hS )-indoline-2-carboxylic acid and (R)-1 -(naphthyl) ethylamine known as the Chirex 3022 column. The separation factor (a) obtained was 1.27 and the resolution factor (Rs) was 4.2 when using a mobile phase composed of hexane-1,2-dichloroethane-ethanol (80 10 10, v/v/v). The (+)-enantiomer eluted first with a capacity factor (k) of 2.67 followed by a (—)-enantiomer with a k of 3.38. Biesel et al. [23] resolved 1-benzylcyclohexane-1,2-diamine hydrochloride on a Chirex D-penicillamine column. Gasparrini et al. [24] synthesized a series of the chiral selectors based on /ra s -1,2 - d i a m i n o eye I o hexane. The developed CSPs were used for the chiral resolution of arylacetic acids, alcohols, sulfoxides, selenoxides, phosphinates, tertiary phosphine oxides, and benzodiazepines. In another study, the same authors [25] described the chiral resolution of /i-aminocstcrs enantiomers on synthetic CSPs based on a re-acidic derivatives of trans- 1,2-diaminocyclohexane... 

Among the preparative methods used for obtaining P-chiral phosphorus compounds, there are procedures involving the use of optically pure auxiliaries like (—)-menthol [40], (—)-ephedrin [41,42], or more recently, the kinetic resolution of 1-hydroxymethylalkylphenylphosphine oxides using Pseudomonas or Candida antarctica lipases [43], It has been found that some [(alkyl-substituted)arene] phosphinates and phosphine oxides can also be resolved efficiently by inclusion complexation with optically active 2,2 -dihydroxy-1, 1 -binaphthyl (17) [44],... 

Resolution of phosphinates and phosphine oxides is also difficult. These, however, were easily resolved by complexation with 14b or 14c. For example, when a solution of 14b (3.5 g, 12 mmol) and rac- 129c (4.5 g, 24 mmol) in benzene (50...

Actually, coordination complexes of different metal salts of DBTA with hydroxycarboxylic acid esters, hydroxycarboxylic acids and alcohols as well as host-guest complexes of DBTA with chiral phosphine oxides and racemic alcohols can be prepared and used for separation of optical isomers. In the next subchapters theoretical and practical aspects of these recent resolution processes are summarised.

Chan has reported that substitution of the 1,3-propa-dioxy ether linkage with a (25,35)-buta-dioxy ether linkage, as in 114, resulted in complete atropdiastereoselective coupling of the aryl units (Scheme 12.42). Reduction of the phosphine oxide (/ )-115 resulted in (R)-116 in 96% yield. This procedure eliminates a resolution step.140... 

The earliest method of preparation of an optically active phosphorus compound was by resolution of a phosphine oxide Meisenheimer resolved ethyl-... 

The synthesis of chiral phosphines from resolved phosphonium salts or phosphine oxides is an intrinsically limited approach. The groups attached to phosphorus must be present prior to resolution and, furthermore, the preparation of phosphine oxides and phosphines from phosphonium salts by chemical or electrochemical cleavage reactions requires that one of the groups bonded to phosphorus be substantially easier to cleave than the other three. 

The scheme shows one method by which BINAP may be made—the resolution salt. It is the phosphine oxide that is resolved, and then reduced to the... 

Synthesis of (-I-) calanolide A (Scheme 8-11) was achieved by enzyme catalyzed resolution of the aldol products ( )-53. Compound 7 with acetaldehyde by aldol reaction in the presence of LDA/TiCU stereoselectively produced a mixmre of ( )-53 and ( )-54 (94% yield), the ratio of which was 96 4. ( )-53 was then resolved by lipase AK-catalyzed acylation reaction in the presence of tert-butyl methyl ether and vinyl acetate at 40 °C to obtain 41% yield of (+)-55 and 54% yield of the acetate (—)-56. Mitsunobu cyclization of (+)-55 in the presence of tri-phenylphosphine and dielthyl azodicarboxylate afforded 63% yield of (-l-)-43 with 94% ee as determined by chiral HPLC. Luche reaction on (+)-43 with CeCla 7H2O and triphenyl phosphine oxide and NaBH4 in the presence of ethanol at 30 °C gave the crude product. It was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give 78% yield of a mixture containing 90% of (+)-calanolide A and 10% (+)-calanohde B, which were further separated by HPLC. 

Both enantiomers of 1 arc available from the resolution of the> intermediate phosphine oxide. 

A chiral bisphosphine that is analogous to BINAP but that contains a biferrocenyl backbone has been obtained by optical resolution of the corresponding phosphine oxide [22]. 

Preparation. - Supercritical nitrous oxide has been shown to oxidise phosphines to the related phosphine oxides under mild conditions, allowing a simple isolation of products. Oxidation of precursor phosphines by hydrogen peroxide is the final step in the synthesis of the chiral functionalised phosphine oxides (219) and (220). A novel resolution procedure for the preparation of P-stereogenic phosphine oxides is afforded by the reactions of racemic chiral tertiary phosphines with an optically pure camphorsulfonyl azide, followed by separation of the diastereoisomeric phosphazenes, and acid... 

Tertiary phosphines, in the absence of special effects 2 ), have relatively high barriers 8) ca. 30-35 kcal/mol) to pyramidal inversion, and may therefore be prepared in otically stable form. Methods for synthesis of optically active phosphines include cathodic reduction or base-catalyzed hydrolysis 3° 31) of optically active phosphonium salts, reduction of optically active phosphine oxides with silane hydrides 32), and kinetic 3 0 or direct 33) resolution. The ready availability of optically pure phosphine oxides of known absolute configuration by the Grignard method (see Sect. 2.1) led to a study 3 ) of a convenient, general, and stereospecific method for their reduction, thus providing a combined methodology for preparation of phosphines of known chirality and of high enantiomeric purity. 

Recently the first use of the paracyclophane backbone for the placement of two diphenylphosphano groups to give a planar chiral C2-symmetric bisphos-phane was reported [102]. The compound 159 abbreviated as [2.2]PHANEPHOS was used as a ligand in Rh-catalyzed hydrogenations. The catalytic system is exceptionally active and works highly enantioselective [ 103]. The preparation of [2.2]PHANEPHOS starts with rac-4,12-dibromo[2.2]paracyclophane (rac-157), which was metalated, transmetalated and reacted with diphenylphosphoryl chloride to give racemic bisphosphane oxide (rac-158). Resolution with diben-zoyltartaric acid and subsequent reduction of the phosphine oxides led to the enantiomerically pure ligand 159.
