Phase‐Transfer‐Catalyzed Asymmetric Synthesis of Axially Chiral Anilides

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of axially chiral o‐iodoanilides and o‐tert‐butylanilides as useful chiral building blocks was achieved by means of binaphthyl‐modified chiral quaternary ammonium‐salt‐catalyzed N‐alkylations under phase‐transfer conditions. The synthetic utility of axially chiral products was demonstrated in various transformations. For example, axially chiral N‐allyl‐o‐iodoanilide was transformed to 3‐methylindoline by means of radical cyclization with high chirality transfer from axial chirality to C‐centered chirality. Furthermore, stereochemical information on axial chirality in o‐tert‐butylanilides could be used as a template to control the stereochemistry of subsequent transformations. The transition‐state structure of the present phase‐transfer reaction was discussed on the basis of the X‐ray crystal structure of ammonium anilide, which was prepared from binaphthyl‐modified chiral ammonium bromide and o‐iodoanilide. The chiral tetraalkylammonium bromide as a phase‐transfer catalyst recognized the steric difference between the ortho substituents on anilide to obtain high enantioselectivity. The size and structural effects of the ortho substituents on anilide were investigated, and a wide variety of axially chiral anilides that possess various functional groups could be synthesized with high enantioselectivities. This method is the only general way to access a variety of axially chiral anilides in a highly enantioselective fashion reported to date.

Synthesis of Axially Chiral Biaryls through Sulfoxide‐Directed Asymmetric Mild CH Activation and Dynamic Kinetic Resolution

A mild and robust direct C? H functionalization strategy has been applied to the synthesis of axially chiral biaryls. Such an efficient and stereoselective transformation occurs through an original dynamic kinetic resolution pathway enabling the conversion of diastereomeric mixtures of non‐prefunctionalized substrates into atropisomerically pure, highly substituted biaryl scaffolds. The main feature of this transformation is the use of an enantiopure sulfoxide as both chiral auxiliary and traceless directing group. The potential of newly synthesized biaryls as valuable building blocks is further illustrated.

Rhodium-Catalyzed ortho-Olefination of Sterically Demanding Benzamides: Application to the Asymmetric Synthesis of Axially Chiral Benzamides

It has been established that an unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl rhodium(III) (CpRh^III) complex is a highly active catalyst for the aerobic oxidative ortho C−H bond olefination of sterically demanding ortho-substituted benzamides with alkenes. This catalysis was successfully applied to the diastereoselective synthesis of axially chiral N,N-dialkylbenzamides. The combination of the ruthenium(II)-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation and the CpRh^III-catalyzed diastereoselective ortho C−H bond olefination enabled the asymmetric synthesis of axially chiral N,N-dialkylbenzamide derivatives with high ee values.     

Palladium‐Catalyzed Enantioselective Cacchi Reaction: Asymmetric Synthesis of Axially Chiral 2,3‐Disubstituted Indoles

We report herein the first examples of a palladium‐catalyzed enantioselective Cacchi reaction for the synthesis of indoles bearing a chiral C2‐aryl axis. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)₂ and (R,R)‐QuinoxP* ligand, reaction of N‐aryl(alkyl)sulfonyl‐2‐alkynylanilides with arylboronic acids under oxygen atmosphere afforded enantioenriched 2,3‐disubstituted indoles in high yields and enantioselectivity. The indole ring is constructed de novo in this process and a complexation‐induced chirality transfer is proposed to account for the observed enantioselectivity.

Construction of Axially Chiral Compounds via Central‐to‐Axial Chirality Conversion

Central‐to‐axial chirality conversion represents a fascinating class of chemical processes consisting of the destruction of stereogenic centers and the simultaneous installation of axial chiral elements, which provides efficient methods for the preparation of axially chiral compounds. Using the strategy, a wide range of axially chiral compounds, including biaryls, heterobiaryls, aromatic amides, allenes and vinyl arenes, have been synthesized with high efficiency and excellent enantioselectivity. In addition, central‐to‐axial chirality conversion strategy has been applied to the synthesis of natural products. The strategy has undoubtedly become and will continue to be a hot research topic in the field of asymmetric catalysis and synthesis. In this minireview, we selected some examples to introduce the developments and trends in the central‐to‐axial chirality conversion strategy up to April 2020.     

Advances in Atroposelectively De Novo Synthesis of Axially Chiral Heterobiaryl Scaffolds

Axially chiral heterobiaryl frameworks are privileged structures in many natural products, pharmaceutically active molecules, and chiral ligands. Therefore, a variety of approaches for constructing these skeletons have been developed. Among them, de novo synthesis, due to its highly convergent and superior atom economy, serves as a promising strategy to access these challenging scaffolds including C-N, C-C, and N-N chiral axes. So far, several elegant reviews on the synthesis of axially chiral heterobiaryl skeletons have been disclosed, however, atroposelective construction of the heterobiaryl subunits by de novo synthesis was rarely covered. Herein, we summarized the recent advances in the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the axially chiral heterobiaryl scaffold via de novo synthetic strategies. The related mechanism, scope, and applications were also included.

Chiral Enol Oxazolines and Thiazolines as Auxiliary Ligands for the Asymmetric Synthesis of Ruthenium‐Polypyridyl Complexes

Various ligands, such as (Z)‐1‐phenyl‐2‐[(4S)‐4‐phenyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1,3‐oxazol‐2‐yl]ethen‐1‐ol ((S)‐ 1a ) and (Z)‐1‐phenyl‐2‐[(4S)‐4‐phenyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1,3‐thiazol‐2‐yl]ethen‐1‐ol ((S)‐ 1c ), were investigated as auxiliaries for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral ruthenium(II) complexes. The reaction of these chiral auxiliary ligands with [RuCl₂(dmso)₄], 2,2′‐bipyridine (bpy, 2.2 equiv), and triethylamine (10 equiv) in DMF/PhCl (1:8) at 140 °C for several hours diastereoselectively provided the complexes Λ‐[Ru(bpy)₂{(S)‐ 1a ? H}] (Λ‐(S)‐ 2a , 52 % yield, 56:1 d.r.) and Λ‐[Ru(bpy)₂{(S)‐ 1c ? H}] (Λ‐(S)‐ 2c , 48 % yield, >100:1 d.r.) in a single step after purification. Both Λ‐(S)‐ 2a and Λ‐(S)‐ 2c could be converted into Λ‐[Ru(bpy)₃](PF₆)₂ by replacing the bidentate enolato ligands with bpy, under retention of configuration, induced by either NH₄PF₆ as a weak acid (from Λ‐(S)‐ 2a : 73 % yield, 22:1 e.r.; from Λ‐(S)‐ 2c : 77 % yield, 22:1 e.r.), TFA as a strong acid (from Λ‐(S)‐ 2a : 72 % yield, 52:1 e.r.; from Λ‐(S)‐ 2c : 85 % yield, 25:1 e.r.), methylation with Meerwein′s salt (from Λ‐(S)‐ 2a : 59 % yield, 46:1 e.r.; from Λ‐(S)‐ 2c : 86 % yield, 37:1 e.r.), ozonolysis (from Λ‐(S)‐ 2a : 56 % yield, 22:1 e.r.; from Λ‐(S)‐ 2c : 43 % yield, 6.3:1 e.r.), or oxidation with a peroxy acid (from Λ‐(S)‐ 2a : 72 % yield, 45:1 e.r.; from Λ‐(S)‐ 2c : 79 % yield, 8.5:1 e.r.). This study shows that, except for the reaction with NH₄PF₆, oxazoline‐enolato complex Λ‐(S)‐ 2a provides Λ‐[Ru(bpy)₃](PF₆)₂ with higher enantioselectivities than analogous thiazoline‐enolato complex Λ‐(S)‐ 2c , which might be due to the higher coordinative stability of the thiazoline‐enolato complex, thus requiring more prolonged reaction times. Thus, this study provides attractive new avenues for the asymmetric synthesis of non‐racemic ruthenium(II)‐polypyridyl complexes without the need for using a strong acid or a strong methylating reagent, as has been the case in all previously reported auxiliary methods from our group.

Asymmetric Nucleophilic Monofluorobenzylation of Carbonyl Compounds: Synthesis of Enantiopure vic‐Fluorohydrins and α‐Fluorobenzylketones

Asymmetric nucleophilic monofluoroalkylation of a broad range of aldehydes with an α‐fluoro‐γ‐sulfinylbenzyl carbanion takes place with complete control of the facial selectivity at the carbanion and good to high anti‐diastereoselectivity to give easily separable mixtures of two optically pure 1,2‐fluorohydrin derivatives (up to 24:1 anti/syn). Separation and removal of the p‐tolylsulfinyl group with tBuLi provides enantiomerically pure anti‐1,2‐disubstituted‐1,2‐fluorohydrins, whereas α‐fluorobenzylketones can be obtained by desulfinylation of the mixture followed by pyridinium chlorochromate oxidation (one‐pot process).
