On the scope of diastereoselective epoxidation of various chiral auxiliaries derived enones: the conformational analysis of camphor derived N- and O-enones

Various camphor derived N- and O-enones were treated with selected oxidants to provide the corresponding epoxides in a wide range of diastereoselectivity. For camphorsultam derived activated alkenes, high to excellent stereoselectivities were obtained when the s-trans enones were treated with methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane. On the other hand, for exo-10,10-diphenyl-2,10-camphanediol (3) and exo-10,10-diphenyl-10-methoxy-2-camphanol (4) derived alkenes, the use of s-cis enones gave the desired epoxide with excellent diastereoselectivity under the same reaction conditions. The stereoselectivity was highly dependent on the geometry of the auxiliaries derived enones and the stereochemical induction is discussed.

Kinetic Influences on Enantioselectivity for Non-Diastereopure Catalyst Mixtures

Different kinetic rate laws were observed for two diastereomeric catalysts which separately gave opposite enantioselectivities in the asymmetric hydrogenation of the dimethyl ester of itaconic acid. In reactions carried out using an equal mixture of the two catalysts, a conversion-dependent enantioselectivity was predicted from the separate reaction-rate data, in agreement with the experimentally observed final enantioselectivity of 54.8 % ee (see diagram).

Enantioselective syntheses of (E)-γ,δ-disubstituted homoallylic alcohols via BF3·OEt2-catalyzed aldehyde allylboration and analysis of the origin of E-selectivity: A1,2 allylic strain vs. syn-pentane interaction

Enantioselective allylboration of aldehydes with α-substituted β-methyl allylboronate was reported. By using BF₃·OEt₂ as the catalyst, γ,δ-disubstituted homoallylic alcohols were obtained in good yields with high E-selectivities and enantioselectivities. Transition state analysis revealed that the disfavored transition state suffers from a syn-pentane interaction between the BF₃ catalyst and axially oriented α-substituent of the allylboron reagent. Such a syn-pentane interaction is severe enough to overcome the A^1,2 allylic strain between the β-methyl group and the α-substituent of the boron reagent that is present in the favored competing transition state. Consequently, the reaction proceeded with equatorial placement of the α-substituent to furnish γ-methyl substituted homoallylic alcohols with high E-selectivity.

Nonlinear Effects in Asymmetric Synthesis and Stereoselective Reactions: Ten Years of Investigation

Who would have thought before 1986 that an enantiomerically impure catalyst could give a product in an asymmetric synthesis with an enantiomeric excess higher than that of the catalyst? Until then it was assumed that the ee value of the product (ee_prod) from an asymmetric synthesis was linearly correlated to the ee value of the chiral auxiliary (ee_aux)—in fact a large deviation is possible (see diagram). These nonlinear effects are not only of academic interest since they have a variety of practical uses, which are highlighted in this review.

Chiral imidates as a new class of nitrogen-based chiral ligands: synthesis and catalytic activity in asymmetric aziridinations and diethylzinc additions

Chiral imidates were efficiently synthesized in one step and with high yields (seven examples). These chiral imidates were used as ligands in the Cu(I)-catalyzed asymmetric aziridination of methyl cinnamate and in the asymmetric diethylzinc additions to benzaldehyde as a proof of principle. The imidate catalyst system showed high catalytic activities and induced encouraging selectivities. An X-ray structure analysis of an imidate-Cu(I) complex is included, showing a distorted tetrahedral arrangement with two bidentate ligand molecules surrounding the metal.
