Asymmetric synthesis of novel spirocycles via a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed desymmetrization

A straightforward method for the asymmetric preparation of novel lactone and lactam spirocycles is described. An initial desymmetrization via a chiral Brønsted acid yields enantioenriched lactones which readily undergo a second cyclization to give the desired spirocycle.     

Chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed addition of thiols to N-acyl imines: access to chiral N,S-acetals

The first catalytic asymmetric method to prepare enantioenriched N,S-acetals using chiral BINOL phosphoric acids is reported. The reaction combines N-acyl imines with thiols to generate products in excellent yield and enantioselectivity. The addition reaction could also be achieved with an exceptional substrate to catalyst (S/C) molar ratio. Electron-rich and electron-deficient aromatic N-acyl imines, as well as a broad range of aliphatic and aromatic thiols, showed excellent reactivity.     

Phosphonium ion tagged chiral phosphoric acids and their application in Friedel-Crafts reactions of indoles

The attachment of phosphonium ion phase tags to chiral binapthyl-based phosphoric acid catalysts, and the use of these materials in a range of organocatalytic asymmetric Friedel-Crafts reactions of indoles has been studied. Placement of the tags at the 3 and 3′ positions of the phosphoric acid, so that they could serve as steric blocking groups, failed to produce an active catalyst. However, moving the phosphonium ion groups to the 6 and 6′ positions produced an efficient and enantioselective catalyst. Aided by the presence of the phase tags, the chiral catalyst was easily removed at the end of the reactions, and could be reused several times, albeit with somewhat decreased efficiency and enantioselectivity.     

Synthesis of new carbohydrate-derived ketones as organocatalysts in the enantioselective epoxidation of arylalkenes. Part 2: Chiral ketones from sugars

A range of new, somewhat complex, stereochemically varied, and structurally related carbohydrate-derived ketones were synthesised by a simple method from the carbohydrate precursor (d-gluco and d-galacto derivatives). The common skeleton possesses the keto function sited on a seven-membered ring fused to positions 2 and 3 of the sugar moiety. Their chirality transfer capability in the dioxirane-mediated epoxidation of arylalkenes was evaluated.     

Chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed enantioselective transfer deuteration of ketimines by use of benzothiazoline as a deuterium donor: synthesis of optically active deuterated amines

By use of 2-deuterated benzothiazoline as a deuterium donor in combination with a chiral phosphoric acid, the transfer deuteration of ketimine and α-iminoester took place smoothly to give α-deuterated amines in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. The remarkable kinetic isotope effect suggests that carbon-deuterium bond cleavage is the rate-determining step.     

Chiral imidazole metalloenzyme models: Synthesis and enantioselective hydrolysis for α-amino acid esters

Chiral imidazole hydrolytic metalloenzyme models with characteristics of chiral centers directly link to imidazole N-atoms and varieties in both alkyl chain length and number of alkyl chains, have been synthesised and investigated for enantioselective hydrolysis of Boc-α-amino acid esters. The result indicates that both hydrolysis rates and enantioselectivities are increased with increases in the alkyl chain length and the number of the alkyl chains in the lipophilic chiral imidazole-type surfactants in many cases. The lipophilic chiral imidazole 4d ((S)-1-hexadecoxy-2-(1-imidazolyl)-propane), which has one long alkyl chain, shows higher hydrolysis rate and enantioselectivity (k_D = 132.5 × 10⁻⁵, k_D/k_L = 5.38), 5d ((S)-1,5-dihexadecoxy-2-(1-imidazolyl)-pentane), which has two long alkyl chains, shows the highest hydrolysis rate and enantioselectivity (k_D = 201.5 × 10⁻⁵, k_D/k_L = 11.72). Additionally, the effects of the metals, the additives, the solvents and the substrates on the hydrolysis rates and enantioselectivities are examined.

An enantioselective Michael addition of malonate to nitroalkenes catalyzed by low loading demethylquinine salts in water

An enantioselective Michael addition of malonate to nitroalkenes is efficiently catalyzed by low loading demethylquinine salts in water; the yield range from 49% to 93% and the ee up to 90%.     

Mechanistic study of asymmetric Michael addition of malonates to enones catalyzed by a primary amino acid lithium salt

A mechanistic study was carried out for the asymmetric Michael addition reaction of malonates to enones catalyzed by a primary amino acid lithium salt to elucidate the origin of the asymmetric induction. A primary β-amino acid salt catalyst, O-TBDPS β-homoserine lithium salt, exhibited much higher enantioselectivity than that achieved with the corresponding catalysts derived from α- and γ-amino acids for this reaction. Detailed studies of the transition states with DFT calculations revealed that the lithium cation and carboxylate group of the β-amino acid salt catalyst have important roles in achieving high enantioselectivity in the Michael addition reaction of malonates to enones.     

Phosphoric acid mediated tautomerism of imines: addition of a secondary enamine intermediate to aldehydes

A phosphoric acid derivative has been shown to promote the addition between an imine and several aldehyde substrates through an enamine intermediate to give cross-aldol condensation products. The reaction scope and preliminary mechanistic investigations will be presented.

Highly enantioselective addition of in situ prepared arylzinc to aldehydes catalyzed by a series of atropisomeric binaphthyl-derived amino alcohols

The direct addition of in situ prepared arylzinc to aldehydes with chiral binaphthyl-derived amino alcohols as catalysts can afford optically active diarylmethanols in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee, ee = enantiomeric excess). By using a single catalyst, both enantiomers of many pharmaceutically interesting diarylmethanols can be obtained by the proper combination of various arylzinc reagents with different aldehydes; this catalytic system also works well for the phenylation of aliphatic aldehydes to give up to 96 % ee.

Conversion of biomass residual to acid-modified bio-chars for efficient adsorption of organic pollutants from industrial phosphoric acid: an experimental,kinetic and thermodynamic study

ABSTRACT

This study reports the removal of organic matters from phosphoric acid using waste-produced bio-charcoal structures. Particularly, the freshly made bio-char species via pyrolysis and two sub-driven acids activated charcoals were applied during the removal process. The treated charcoal with hydrochloric and nitric acids had attained a higher adsorption rate for organic matters than that of the non-treated one. Removal percentages of 70% and 60% were, respectively, attained by acid-modified chars. The kinetics of the adsorption process was fitted via pseudo-first/second-order and Morris–Weber models. The thermodynamic parameters of the presented sorption process indicate that organic matter removal has been endothermic, physical and spontaneous.
