含二茂铁和吡啶单元的手性席夫碱配体在钌催化的不对称氢转移反应中的应用

Chiral Schiff base complexes are very efficient for a wide range of reactions, including expoxidation[1], epoxide ring opening[2], Diels-Alder reaction[3], aldol reaction[4], etc. However, there are only few examples of P-N chelate Schiff bases being used as the chiral ligands in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones. Recently, Gao et al[5] reported a series of P,N,N,P Schiff base ligands that have relatively low enantioselectivity in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones.

Asymmetric hydrosilylation,transfer hydrogenation and hydrogenation of ketones catalyzed by iridium complexes

Iridium-based asymmetric reduction of ketones to chiral enantiomerically enriched alcohols has recently attracted attention by a number of research groups and interest in this area is growing. This review presents the different catalytic systems based on iridium complexes that have been used in asymmetric hydrosilylation, in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) with alcohols or formic acid derivatives as reducing agents, and in asymmetric hydrogenation (H₂ as reducing agent). A large variety of chiral ligands of various denticities and bearing various combination of coordinating atoms (N, P, S, O, C, …) have been used and will be presented. The last part critically reviews the mechanistic understanding of all the above transformations with specific reference to iridium catalysts.     

Chiral iridium(I) bis(NHC) complexes as catalysts for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation

The common use of NHC complexes in transition‐metal mediated C–C coupling and metathesis reactions in recent decades has established N‐heterocyclic carbenes as a new class of ligand for catalysis. The field of asymmetric catalysis with complexes bearing NHC‐containing chiral ligands is dominated by mixed carbene/oxazoline or carbene/phosphane chelating ligands. In contrast, applications of complexes with chiral, chelating bis(NHC) ligands are rare. In the present work new chiral iridium(I) bis(NHC) complexes and their application in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones are described. A series of chiral bis(azolium) salts have been prepared following a synthetic pathway, starting from L ‐valinol and the modular buildup allows the structural variation of the ligand precursors. The iridium complexes were formed via a one‐pot transmetallation procedure. The prepared complexes were applied as catalysts in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of various prochiral ketones, affording the corresponding chiral alcohols in high yields and moderate to good enantioselectivities of up to 68%. The enantioselectivities of the catalysts were strongly affected by the various, terminal N‐substituents of the chelating bis(NHC) ligands. The results presented in this work indicate the potential of bis‐carbenes as stereodirecting ligands for asymmetric catalysis and are offering a base for further developments.

Enantioselective reduction of aromatic ketones catalysed by chiral ruthenium(II) complexes

The catalytic enantioselective reduction of aromatic ketones in 2-propanol is carried out by using ruthenium(II) complexes prepared from [Ru(p-cymene)Cl₂]₂ and a variety of chiral diamines and β-aminoalcohols derived from α-amino acids. Good conversions (>99%) and enantioselectivities (=96%) are observed under mild reaction conditions.     

Solvent-free oxidation of alcohols by hydrogen peroxide over chromium Schiff base complexes immobilized on MCM-41

A series of chromium(III) Schiff base complexes immobilized on MCM-41 were prepared and characterized by various physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The complexes were used for the selective oxidation of alcohols by 30% hydrogen peroxide without any organic solvent, phase transfer catalyst or additive. The immobilized complexes proved to be effective catalysts and generally exhibited much higher catalytic performance than their corresponding homogeneous analogs. The catalytic performance of the immobilized complexes was also found to be closely related to the Schiff base ligands used. Under the optimal reaction conditions, secondary alcohols, cyclic alcohols and benzyl alcohol were prevailingly oxidized to their corresponding ketones or aldehydes.     

Chiral nickel(II) complexes in the preparation of 11C- and 18F-labelled enantiomerically pure α-amino acids

Positron emission tomography (PET) utilises positron emitting radiopharmaceuticals in the study of metabolic and physiological processes. FDG-PET is a useful technique for tumour detection; however FDG has disadvantages. The incorporation of labelled amino acids into brain tumours and into some other organs with high physiological consumption of glucose is a superior diagnostic method due to its much higher selectivity compared to FDG. A Ni(II) complex with a Schiff base of BPB and glycine was one of the first glycine synthons used for asymmetric synthesis of carbon-11 and fluorine-18 labelled α-amino acids. A similar complex was employed for routine preparation of [(18)F]FET. Physico-chemical investigations allowed us to design modified complexes with much stronger stereodiscriminative power including stereospecific ones. Chiral nickel complexes are also used for the preparation of tailored amino acids for the incorporation into peptides followed by labelling the peptides with fluorine-18 labelled "click" reagents. This review covers PET applications of Ni(II) complexes of Schiff base of BPB and α-amino acids from 1989 to date.     

Intramolecular vs. intermolecular induction in the diastereoselective catalytic reduction of enantiomerically pure ketones with borane in the presence of cyclic β-amino alcohols

Asymmetric reduction of various enantiomerically pure ketones was carried out by using oxazaborolidine catalysts with a variety of achiral and chiral ligands. The efficiency of chiral 1,2-amino alcohols as well as the effect of the stereogenic centers in the substrate on the catalytic asymmetric reduction were studied. It was found that the corresponding secondary alcohols were obtained with extremely high stereoselectivities with the proper choice of chiral ligands although a considerably large double asymmetric induction was observed in some cases.     

Synthesis of 7,7’-Disubstituted BINAP and Their Application in Asymmetric Catalytic Reaction

The chiral Ir(I) complexes with the ligands of [SNNS]-type were also prepared and characterized, which showed good enantioselectivity and high activity. The reactions can be performed in air and the catalytic experiments are greatly simplified.     

Asymmetric hydrogenation of alpha-primary and secondary amino ketones: efficient asymmetric syntheses of (-)-arbutamine and (-)-denopamine

Two beta-receptor agonists (-)-denopamine and (-)-arbutamine were prepared in good yields and enantioselectivities by asymmetric hydrogenation of unprotected amino ketones for the first time by using Rh catalysts bearing electron-donating phosphine ligands. A series of alpha-primary and secondary amino ketones were synthesized and hydrogenated to produce various 1,2-amino alcohols in good yields and with good enantioselectivies. This Rh electron-donating phosphine-catalyzed asymmetric hyderogenation represents one of the most promising and convenient approaches towards the asymmetric synthesis of chiral amino alcohols.
