High-Pressure Approach to the Synthesis of Optically Pure Methyl 4-Deoxyheptosides

Recently we have described¹ high pressure (4+2) cycloaddition of l-methoxybuta-1,3-diene (1)to 2,3-0-isopropylidene-D-glyceraldehyde (z), which gives rise to chiral cycloadducts 3 (Scheme). action was carried out under high-pressure conditions (22 kbar, 50°C. diethyl ether as solvent, 20 h, 80% yield)2 four diastereoisomeric adducts were formed in a ratio of 3a:3b:3c:3d=66:16:13:5. The reaction mixture was separated by column chromatography yielding two fractions which contained diastereoisomeric mixtures (3a+3b) and (3c+3d), respectively. Absolute configuration at the C-5 carbon atom in both mixtures was established by chemical correlation.' These results prompted us to use a mixture (3a+3b), being stereochemically pure at C-5 chiral center, in the synthesis of optically active methyl 4-deoxyheptosides (Scheme).

Simple and efficient methods for discrimination of chiral diacids and chiral alpha-methyl amines

The three-component chiral derivatization protocols have been developed for (1)H, (13)C and (19)F NMR spectroscopic discrimination of chiral diacids by their coordination and self-assembly with optically active (R)-α-methylbenzylamine and 2-formylphenylboronic acid or 3-fluoro-2-formylmethylboronic acid. These protocols yield a mixture of diastereomeric imino-boronate esters which are identified by the well-resolved diastereotopic peaks with significant chemical shift differences ranging up to 0.6 and 2.1 ppm in their corresponding (1)H and (19)F NMR spectra, without any racemization or kinetic resolution, thereby enabling the determination of enantiopurity. A protocol has also been developed for discrimination of chiral alpha-methyl amines, using optically pure trans-1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid in combination with 2-formylphenylboronic acid or 3-fluoro-2-fluoromethylboronic acid. The proposed strategies have been demonstrated on large number of chiral diacids and chiral alpha-methyl amines.     

Zirconium complexes having a chiral phosphanylamide in the co-ordination sphere

The chiral phosphanylamido ligand, (N(CHMePh)(PPh2))-, has been introduced into co-ordination chemistry. As starting material the oily amines HN(R-*CHMePh)(PPh2)(1a) and HN(S-*CHMePh)(PPh2)(1b) were used. To reconfirm their absolute structure, 1b was oxidized with H2O2 in air to obtain HN(S-*CHMePh)(P(O)Ph2)(2) as a solid compound. The solid-state structure of 2 was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The lithium salts of both enantiomers Li(N(R-*CHMePh)(PPh2))(3a) and Li(N(S-*CHMePh)(PPh2))(3b) were prepared by deprotonation reaction of 1a,b. Compounds 3a,b were further reacted with zirconocen dichloride to give the chiral metallocenes [(eta5-C5H5)2Zr(Cl)(eta2-N(R-*CHMePh)(PPh2))](4a) and [(eta5-C5H5)2Zr(Cl)(eta2-N(S-*CHMePh)(PPh2))](4b). In an alternative approach to give chiral zirconium compounds, the neutral amine 1b was reacted with [(PhCH2)4Zr] to give the enantiomeric pure complex [(PhCH2)3Zr(eta2-N(S-*CHMePh)(PPh2))](5). The solid-state structures of all zirconium complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

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.     

Synthesis of novel chiral compounds of purine and pyrimidine bases

The physiologically active groups such as purine and pyrimidine bases are introduced to the asymmetric ynthesis. The optically pure compounds bearing purine and pyrimidine bases (5a—5e) were prepared via the asymetric Michael addition reaction of purines and pyrimidines as Michael donators with the chiral source 5-(R)-[(1R, 2S, 5R)-menthyloxy]-2(5H)-furanone (3a), which was prepared from the natural chiral auxiliary (-)-menthol. The synthetic method was studied in detail and the new compounds were identified on the basis of their analytical data and spectroscopic data, such as [α]_D~(20), IR, UV, ~1H NMR, ~(13)C NMR and MS. The absolute configuration of 5a was established by X-ray crystallography. The results provided an efficient synthetic route to chiral purines and pyrimidine analogues, and offered chiral sources for further research on the physiologically active compounds of chiral nucleotides.

Novel enhancement of diastereoselectivity of [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of chiral cyclohexenones to ethylene by adding naphthalenes

The additive effect on the diastereoselective [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of chiral cyclohexenones 1 to ethylene is examined. A novel and fairly efficient method of increasing the diastereoselectivity in the reaction of 1a was elucidated. The de value increased from 56% to 83% by the addition of 1-phenylnaphthalene. The major product 2a was isolated by the recrystallization of the diastereomeric mixture (major/minor = 11/1), of which X-ray analysis confirmed the absolute configuration of the bicyclic system of 2a. Hydrolysis for removing the chiral auxiliary and subsequent esterification afforded the optically pure bicyclo[4.2.0]octanone derivative 5. From the fluorescence spectral analyses and other experimental results, the additive effect is attributed to the complex formation of chiral cyclohexenone 1a and added naphthalenes.     

Design of a novel inherently chiral calix[4]arene for chiral molecular recognition

A newly designed inherently chiral calix[4]arene was synthesized and resolved to an optically pure form.

In addition, the chiral calix[4]arene was applied to asymmetric reactions, as an organocatalyst.     

Synthesis of spiro-cyclopropane derivatives containing multiple chiral centers

Tandem asymmetric double Michael addition/internal nucleophilic substitution of the novel chiral source, 5-(l-menthyloxy)-3-bromo-2(5H)-furanone with nucleophilic alcohol compounds has been investigated. The tandem asymmetric reaction can afford four new stereogenic centers with one reaction and give optically pure spiro-cyclopropane derivatives 5a--5d which are difficult to obtain by routine methods. The synthetic method for 5a--5d was studied in detail and the new compounds were identified on the basis of their analytical data and spectroscopic data, such as [α]~(20),IR,~1H NMR,~(13)C NMR, MS and elementary analysis. The absolute configuration of the sprio [5-l-menthyloxy-3-bromo butyrolactocyclopropane-3″, 3′(4′-methyloxy-5′-menthyloxybutyrolactone)] (5a) was established by X-ray crystallography. The work can provide important synthetic strategy in synthesis of some new optically active spiro-cyclopropane analogues and some biologically active molecules with complex structure.     

An Efficient Synthesis of Highly Optically Active 4-Substituted-2（5H）-furanones from Chiral 3-Bromo-2（5H）-furanone

Highly optically active 4-substituted-2(5H)-furanones 6a-6j were obtained in good yields with de≥98% by the tandem Michael addition/elimination reaction of chiral 3-bromo-2(SH)-furanone (4a), which was conveniently prepared starting from 2-furaldehyde under mild conditions. The products were identified on the basis of their satisfactory elemental analysis and spectroscopic data of IR, UV, ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR and mass spectra. The stereochemistry and absolute configuration of this type of compounds were established by the X-ray crystallographic study. The reaction provided a short and efficient synthesis of the interesting highly optically active 4-subsdtuted-2(5H)-furanones containing an active pyrimidine and a purine base group.
