Stereospecific substitution of enantiomerically pure 1-(2-pyridinyl)ethyl methanesulfonate with beta-dicarbony compounds

The alkylation of the sodium salt of the malonic acid diester with (R)-1-(2-pyridinyl)ethyl methanesulfonate (2) gave the dimethyl (R)-[1-(2-pyridinyl)ethyl]malonate (3a), stereospecifically. The alkylation reaction of methyl acetoacetate gave the methyl (2'S,2R/2S)-3-oxo-2-[1-(2-pyridinyl)ethyl]butanoate (3d) along with the methyl (S)-3-[1-(2-pyridinyl)ethoxy]-2-butenoate (4d). The acid hydrolysis and decarboxylation of 3d under acidic conditions gave (R)-4-(2-pyridinyl)pentan-2-one (6), and the alkylation of methyl (R)-[1-(2-pyridinyl)ethyl]acetoacetate with benzyl bromide gave a mixture of C-benzylated and O-benzylated products 7 and 8.

Asymmetric oxidation and determination of the configurations of an optically pure sulfoxide and an I-menthoxysulfonium salt of 1,9-bis(methylthio)dibenzothiophene by x-ray crystallographic analysis

1,9-Bis(methylthio)dibenzothiophene (1a) was treated with one equivalent of bromine and pyridine in the presence of l-menthol and then with aqueous sodium hydroxide to give optically active 1-(methylsulfinyl)-9-(methylthio)dibenzothiophene (2a) enriched by the S isomer (ee: 57%). The configuration of optically pure sulfoxide (2a) was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis to be the S configuration at the sulfinyl sulfur atom. On the other hand, 1-(methyl-l-menthoxysulfonio)-9-(methylthio)dibenzothiophene tetrafluoroborate (4a) was isolated as an intermediate of this asymmetric oxidation in an optically pure form, as yellow crystals. The absolute configuration of this sulfonium salt (4a) was verified by X-ray crystallographic analysis as the R configuration. Optically pure sulfonium salt (4a) also gave partially optically active sulfoxide (2a) with net inversion on its hydrolysis. It was suggested that the hydrolysis reaction of the sulfonium salt (4a) accordingly proceeds, not only via a sulfurane having a simple S_N2 type of geometry but also by a front side attack ofhydroxide anion, with respect to the l-menthoxy group, on sulfur, and the sequential elimination of the l-menthoxy group from the tetracoordinated intermediate. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

First Resolution of a Free Fluorophosphine Chiral at Phosphorus. Resolution and Reactions of Free and Coordinated (+/-)-Fluorophenylisopropylphosphine

The trivalent fluorophosphine (+/-)-PFPh(i-Pr), (+/-)-1, has been prepared by halogen exchange of the corresponding chlorophosphine with sodium fluoride in hot sulfolane. The neat fluorophosphine rapidly decomposes by equilibrium redox disproportionation into PF(3)Ph(i-Pr) and (R,R)/(R,S)-Ph(i-Pr)PPPh(i-Pr), but in benzene, (+/-)-1 has considerable thermodynamic stability. The resolution of (+/-)-1 was achieved by a fractional crystallization of the diastereomers (R,R(P))- and (R,S(P))-chloro[1-[1-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-2-naphthalenyl-C,N](fluorophenylisopropylphosphine)palladium(II), (R,R(P))- and (R,S(P))-5, whereby the less soluble (R,R(P)) diastereomer selectively crystallized in 64% yield in a typical second-order asymmetric transformation. Optically pure (S)-(-)-1, -210 (c 0.59, C(6)H(6)), was liberated from (R,R(P))-5 with (R,S)-1,2-phenylenebis(methylphenylphosphine). The optically active phosphine in benzene racemizes over 6 h without significant redox disproportionation. The methoxyphosphine (+/-)-P(OMe)Ph(i-Pr), (+/-)-9, was also resolved by the method of metal complexation. Thus, fractional crystallization of (R,R(P))- and (R,S(P))-chloro[1-[1-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-2-naphthalenyl-C,N](methoxyphenylisopropylphosphine)palladium(II), (R,R(P))- and (R,S(P))-8, followed by liberation of the respective optically active methoxyphosphines from the separated diastereomers with 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, gave (R)-(+)- and (S)-(-)-9 of 92% and 96% ee, respectively. The barrier to unimolecular inversion for (+/-)-9 was determined to be >82.9 +/- 0.5 kJ mol(-)(1) by variable temperature (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The substitution of fluoride in (R,R(P))-5 by methoxide proceeds with predominant inversion of the configuration at phosphorus to give (R,R(P))- and (R,S(P))-8 with (R,S(P))/(R,R(P)) = (1)/(5). The crystal structures of (R,R(P))-5 and (R,R(P))-8 have been determined: (R,R(P))-5 (C(23)H(28)ClFNPPd) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 9.967(2) ?, b = 10.998(4) ?, c = 21.324(3) ?, Z = 4, and R = 0.031; (R,R(P))-8 (C(24)H(31)ClNOPPd) crystallizes in the space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 10.444(3) ?, b = 12.146(3) ?, c = 19.047(2) ?, Z = 4, and R = 0.026.

Stereoselective synthesis of iso-dolaproine via dynamic kinetic resolution

[see reaction]. An efficient multigram-scale synthesis of optically pure Boc-(2S,3R,4S)-iso-dolaproine is reported using dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR). The catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of ethyl (4S)-3-(2'-pyrrolidinyl)-3-oxo-2-methyl propanoate hydrochloride using in situ generated Ru[(S)-MeO-BIPHEP]Br2 catalyst affords the anti beta-hydroxy alpha-methyl ester quantitatively. The two new stereogenic centers are simultaneously controlled with high diastereoselectivity.     

Synthesis of 5,8-dihydro-5-oxo-2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acids and the reinvestigation of the thermal cyclization of diethyl (2-hydroxy-4-pyrimidinyl)amino-methylenemalonate

Diethyl [2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)-4-pyrimidinyl]aminomethylenemalonates 5 prepared by the reaction between 2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)-4-pyrimidinamines 3 and diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate ( 4 ) were thermally cyclized to afford ethyl 5,8-dihydro-5-oxo-2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates 6 . The later were alkylated with ethyl iodide and then saponified to give 5,8-dihydro-8-ethyl-5-oxo-2-(3- or 4-pyridinyl)pyrido-[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acids 2 . Thermal cyclization of diethyl (2-hydroxy-4-pyrimidinyl)amino-methylenemalonate ( 8 ) gave ethyl 1,6-dihydro-4,6-dioxo-4H-pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylate ( 10 ) instead of ethyl 5,8-dihydro-2-hydroxy-5-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate ( 9 ) as previously claimed.     

An allyltitanium derived from acrolein 1,2-dicyclohexylethylene acetal and (eta(2)-propene)Ti(O-i-Pr)(2) as a chiral propionaldehyde homoenolate equivalent that reacts with imines with excellent stereoselectivity. An efficient and practical access to optically active gamma-amino carbonyl compounds

A chiral allyltitanium compound 2, prepared in situ by the reaction of optically active acrolein 1,2-dicyclohexylethylene acetal (3) with (eta(2)-propene)Ti(O-i-Pr)(2) (1), reacts with a variety of acyclic and cyclic imines 4 in a regiospecific way to afford alpha-addition products 5 as a mixture of the E- and Z-isomers in good combined yield, where the former is predominant in a ratio of 92:8 to >95:5. The mixture of (E)- and (Z)-5 and pure (E)-5 which could be isolated in several cases were respectively converted to the corresponding beta-amino ester 6 to confirm the absolute configuration and enantiomeric purity. The ee of the newly formed asymmetric center of 5 is more than 78% for the mixture of (E)- and (Z)-5 and more than 96% for pure (E)-5. By taking advantage of the versatility of the vinyl ether moiety in 5, optically active gamma-amino aldehydes 8, gamma-amino aldehyde acetals 7 and 10, gamma-amino acids 9, beta-amino esters 6, and pyrrolidinoisoquinolines 12 were readily prepared. In the reaction of 2 with optically active alpha-silyloxyimine 4n, remarkable double stereodifferentiation was observed; thus, the reaction of 2 derived from (S,S)- or (R,R)-3 provided syn- and anti-5n in a ratio of 55:45 or 0:100, respectively. Meanwhile, the stereochemistry of the product in the reaction of 2 with beta-silyloxyimine 4o was controlled mainly by 2. Thus, the reaction of beta-silyloxyimine 14 with 2 derived from 1 and (R,R)-3 afforded gamma-silyloxyimine 15 with 92% diastereoselectivity, from which 4-amino-6-hydroxypentadecanal dimethyl acetal (13), a key intermediate for the synthesis of batzelladine D, was synthesized.     

Asymmetric synthesis of [2,3-(13)C(2),(15)N]-4-benzyloxy-5,6-diphenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-oxazine-2-one via lipase TL-mediated kinetic resolution of benzoin: general procedure for the synthesis of [2,3-(13)C(2),(15)N]-L-alanine.

Lipase TL-mediated kinetic resolution of benzoin proceeded to give the corresponding optically pure (R)-benzoin (R)-1. On the other hand, (S)-benzoin O-acetate (S)-7 could be hydrolyzed without epimerization to give (S)-benzoin (S)-1 under alkaline conditions. Furthermore, both enantiomers of benzoin (1) were converted to [(15)N]-(1R,2S)- and (1S,2R)- 2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol (3a and 3b), respectively, according to the procedure reported previously. [2,3-(13)C(2),(15)N]-(5S,6R)-4-benzyloxy-5,6-diphenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-oxazine-2-one (10) was synthesized from ethyl [1,2-(13)C(2)]bromoacetate and (1R,2S)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethanol (3b) in three steps. Finally, [2,3-(13)C(2),(15)N]-L-alanine (12) was prepared via alkylation of the lactone 10 and hydrogenation of the alkylated product 11.     

Alkyl 2-(2-benzothiazolylsulfinyl)acetates as useful synthetic reagents for alkyl 4-hydroxyalk-2-enoates by sulfinyl-Knoevenagel reaction

Isopropyl, ethyl, and methyl 2-(2-benzothiazolylsulfinyl)acetates have been found to be useful synthetic reagents for sulfinyl-Knoevenagel reaction with various aldehydes to give directly the corresponding 4-hydroxyalk-2-enoates [R′CH(OH)CHCHCO₂R], which are ubiquitous structures in biologically active natural products and useful building blocks for organic synthesis of chiral compounds. From the optically pure (R)-2-(2-benzothiazolylsulfinyl)acetates (>99% ee) prepared by the enzymatic kinetic resolution of (±)-2-(2-benzothiazolylsulfinyl)acetates, optically active 4-hydroxyalk-2-enoates (up to 91% ee) have been obtained in good yields.

Synthetic study of optically active 3-azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-2,6,8-tricarboxylic acid

Synthesis of (1R,2S,5S,6R,8S)-3-azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-2,6,8-tricarboxylic acid (2) from trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline (5) was attempted. A Diels-Alder reaction of 3,4-dehydroproline derivative 9 and cyclopentadiene afforded a single stereoisomer 11. The Diels-Alder adduct was smoothly converted to the hydrochloride of 2 (24) via RuO(4) oxidation. Although some racemization of the material or product was observed during the synthetic processes, the amino acid 24 proved to be optically pure.     

Stereoselective synthesis of optically active disilanes and selective functionalization by the cleavage of silicon-naphthyl bonds with bromine

Optically active disilanes with one chiral silicon center, (R)-1,2-dimethyl-1-(naphth-1-yl)-1,2,2-triphenyldisilane and (R)-1,2,2-trimethyl-2-(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl)-1-(naphth-1-yl)-1-phenyldisilane, were obtained by the reaction of (S)-methyl(naphth-1-yl)phenylchlorosilane (> 99% ee) with methyldiphenylsilyllithium or by the reaction of methyldiphenylchlorosilane with optically active (S)-methyl(naphth-1-yl)phenylsilyllithium and by the reaction of (S)-methyl(naphth-1-yl)phenylchlorosilane (> 99% ee) with dimethyl(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl)silyllithium. Under the optimized conditions, the reactions proceeded with almost complete inversion for the cholorosilanes and retention for the silyl anions. Optically active disilanes with two chiral centers, (1R,2R)-1,2-dimethyl-1,2-di(naphth-1-yl)-1,2-diphenyldisilane and (1S,2S)-1,2-di(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl)-1,2-dimethyl-1,2-diphenyldisilane, were obtained in high optical purity by the reactions of corresponding optically active halogenosilanes (Cl or F) with optically active silyllithiums. The silicon-silicon bond and the silicon-naphthyl bond of (R)-1,1,2-trimethyl-1,2-di(naphth-1-yl)-2-phenyldisilane and (1R,2R)-1,2-dimethyl-1,2-di(naphth-1-yl)-1,2-diphenyldisilane were cleaved without selectivity on bromination. The silicon-(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl) bond of (R)-1,2,2-trimethyl-2-(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl)-1-(naphth-1-yl)-1-phenyldisilane was regiospecifically cleaved, followed by the stereoselective cleavage of the remaining chiral silicon-naphthyl bond (94% inversion). Although the silicon-(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl) bonds of (1S,2S)-1,2-di(4-methoxynaphth-1-yl)-1,2-dimethyl-1,2-diphenyldisilane (> 99% ee) were regioselectively cleaved without silicon-silicon bond scission, remarkable racemization could not be avoided during the one-pot reaction.     

The Williamson Reaction: A New and Efficient Method for the Alternate Resolution of 2,2'-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,1'-binaphthyl and 1,1'-Binaphthalene-2,2'-diol

Treatment of 2,2'-bis(bromomethyl)-1,1'-binaphthyl [(R,S)-2] with 1,1'-binaphthalene-2,2'-diol (+)-(R)-1 and cesium or potassium carbonate in refluxing acetone, gave the diastereoisomeric dioxacyclophanes (-)-(R,S)-3a and (+)-(R,R)-3b, both obtained in high yield, and the cyclic tetraether (+)-(R,R,R,S)-4 as isolated side product. Boron tribomide-promoted ether cleavage of 3a and 3b gave optically pure (-)-(S)-2 and (+)-(R)-2, respectively, and the recovered diol (+)-(R)-1. Alternatively, the same reaction sequence furnished the resolved diols (-)-(S)-1 and (+)-(R)-1 from (R,S)-1 and (+)-(R)-2, as well as optically pure 2,2'-bis(chloromethyl)-1,1'-binaphthyl (+)-(R)-5 from the racemic dibromide (R,S)-2 by using boron trichloride for ether cleavage.     

Enantioselective synthesis of (1S,4R)-N-(benzylcarbamoyl)-4-aminocyclopent-2-en-1-ol by Candida antarctica lipase B

An efficient biocatalytic process has been developed to obtain optically pure (1S,4R)-N-(benzylcarbamoyl)- 4-aminocyclopent-2-en-1-ol which can be used as the key intermediate of ticagrelor. In this research, several N-(benzylcarbamoyl)-4-aminocyclopent-2-en-1-ol derivatives have been investigated in which Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) was used to catalyze the asymmetric hydrolysis reaction. As expected, some of these substrates successfully gave (1S,4R)-N-(benzylcarbamoyl)-4-aminocyclopent- 2-en-1-ol in >98% enantiomeric excess (ee) with conversion yields up to 45%.

Synthesis of the enantiomers of cis-2-methyl-5-hexanolide,the major component of the sex pheromone of the carpenter bee

(2R,5S)-2-Methyl-5-hexanolide and its antipode were synthesized in highly optically pure state (?98–99% e.e.) starting from ethyl (S)-lactate and the enantiomers of methyl β-hydroxyisobutyrate. The specific rotations of our samples were [α]_D±91.0-93.5° (CHCl₃), while the reported values of the samples prepared by resolution or asymmetric synthesis were ±64.5–65.6°.     

Enzymatic kinetic resolution of tert-butyl 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)phenylcarbamate, a key intermediate to chiral organoselenanes and organotelluranes

The enzymatic kinetic resolution of tert-butyl 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)?phenylcarbamate via lipase-catalyzed transesterification reaction was studied. We investigated several reaction conditions and the carbamate was resolved by Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B), leading to the optically pure (R)- and (S)-enantiomers. The enzymatic process showed excellent enantioselectivity (E > 200). (R)- and (S)-tert-butyl 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)phenylcarbamate were easily transformed into the corresponding (R)- and (S)-1-(2-aminophenyl)ethanols.
