The synthesis of dendritic BINOL ligands and their applications in the enantioselective Lewis acid catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes

Novel dendritic chiral BINOL ligands have been synthesized through coupling of MOM-protected 3,3′-dihydroxymethyl-binaphthol with Fréchet-type polyether benzyl bromide dendrons followed by deprotection of the MOM groups using TsOH. These dendritic chiral BINOL ligands were found to be effective in the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde both in the presence and absence of Ti(O-iso-Pr)₄. The enantioselectivity decreased with increasing generation in both cases. In the latter case, the dendritic chiral BINOL ligands showed much higher catalytic activity and enantioselectivity than BINOL.     

The synthesis of dendritic BINOL ligands and their applications in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde

The synthesis of Fréchet-type dendritic BINOL ligands is described. These dendritic BINOL ligands were found to be effective in the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde both in the presence and absence of Ti(O-i-Pr)₄. In the latter case, the novel dendritic chiral BINOL ligands showed slightly higher enantioselectivities than their monomeric analogue.     

Synthesis of 3 or 3,3′-substituted BINOL ligands and their application in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes

Three new substituted BINOL ligands (R)-3-[4,6-bis(dimethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (R)-1, (R)-3,3′-bis[4,6-bis(dimethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (R)-2 and 2,4-bis(2,2′-dihydroxy-1,1′-binaphthalen-3-yl)-6-(p-tolyl)-1,3,5-triazine (R,R)-3 have been obtained by directed ortho-lithiation or Suzuki cross-coupling process. Ligand (R)-1 shows improved catalytic properties for the asymmetric diethylzinc addition to aromatic aldehydes.     

The synthesis of silica-supported chiral BINOL: Application in Ti-catalyzed asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes

Chiral BINOL was covalently anchored on two different pore sized mesoporous silica (SBA-15 (7.5 nm) and MCF (14 nm)). These heterogenized ligands were used in Ti-catalyzed asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. High catalytic activity with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 94% ee) for secondary alcohols was achieved using MCF supported chiral BINOL under heterogeneous reaction conditions. Good to excellent enantioselectivity (ee, 68–91%) was also achieved with various small to bulkier aldehydes. The MCF supported catalyst was reused in multiple catalytic runs without loss of enantioselectivity.     

Dendritic BINOL ligands for asymmetric catalysis: effect of the linking positions and generations of the dendritic wedges on catalyst properties

Three types of new chiral BINOL ligands (2, 3 and 4) bearing dendritic wedges have been synthesized through coupling reaction between 3-hydroxymethyl-2,2′-bis(methoxymethyl)-1,1′-binaphthol (7), 6,6′-dihydroxymethyl-2,2′-bis(methoxymethyl)-1,1′-binaphthol (12), 6-hydroxymethyl-2,2′-bis(methoxymethyl)-1,1′-binaphthol (15) and Fréchet-type polyether dendritic benzyl bromide, followed by deprotection of methoxymethyl groups by ⁱPrOH/HCl, respectively. These new ligands obtained were assessed in enantioselective Lewis acid-catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde. Compared to the enantioselectivity observed with dendrimer 1 bearing the dendritic wedges at 3,3′-positions of the binaphthyl backbone, higher enantioselectivity for all these ligands was observed. Difference in the effect of linking positions and generations on enantioselectivity and/or activity for all three kinds of dendritic ligand-derived catalysts was observed. Among these dendritic ligands, (R)-3/Ti(IV) catalyst with the dendritic wedges at 6,6′-positions of BINOL gave the highest enantioselectivity (up to 87% ee).     

Probing the importance of the hemilabile site of bis(phosphine) monoxide ligands in the copper-catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to N-phosphinoylimines: discovery of new effective chiral ligands

The hemilabile ligand Me-DuPHOS(O) 2 has proven to be a successful ligand for the copper-catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to N-phosphinoylimines. The corresponding alpha-chiral amines were obtained in high yields (80-98%) and enantiomeric ratios (19.0:1 to 99.0:1 er). Furthermore, this Cu* 2 catalytic system has been shown to be effective in the addition of diethylzinc to nitroalkenes and in the reduction of beta,beta-disubstituted vinyl phenyl sulfones. This paper describes a general structure/selectivity study in which the three ligand subunits (chiral phospholane-linker-labile coordinating group (Z)) are systematically modified and tested in the copper-catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to the N-phosphinoylimine 1 derived from benzaldehyde. This study led to the discovery of a new class of effective chiral ligands that combine a chiral phospholane unit and an achiral phosphine oxide.     

New bidentate chiral phosphoramidites in copper-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of diethylzinc to cyclic α,β-enones: enantioselective tandem 1,4-addition-aldol reactions with 2-cyclopentenone

New bidentate phosphoramidites were prepared starting from α,α,α′,α′-tetraphenyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanol (TADDOL) or 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) and either 1,2-ethylene- or 1,3-propylenediamine N,N′-disubstituted with achiral or chiral groups. The use of these ligands in the copper-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of diethylzinc to 2-cyclohexenone and 2-cyclopentenone afforded products with e.e.s of up to 89 and 83%, respectively.     

Tuning ligand structure in chiral bis(phosphite) and mixed phosphite-phosphinite PCP-palladium pincer complexes

A range of chiral resorcinol bis(phosphite) and phosphite-phosphinite ligands were produced and their propensity to form palladium PCP-pincer complexes examined. The ease of base-assisted C-H palladation of the ligands falls in the order bis(phosphinite) > phosphite-phosphinite > bis(phosphite). The catalytic activity of the complexes in the asymmetric allylation of benzaldehyde with allyl tributyltin was examined and it was found that, contrary to expectations, ligands with 3,3'-disubstituted BINOL residues show poorer activity and stereoselectivity than unsubstituted BINOL analogues. In addition the order of activity of the pincer complexes was established as bis(phosphite) > phosphite-phosphinite > bis(phosphinite). Crystal structures of representative examples of a 3,3'-disubstituted BINOL, mono- and bis(phosphite) ligands based on 2,4-di-tert-butyl resorcinol and Pd complexes of two of the chiral complexes are presented.

Moreover, they have been applied to the catalytic asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde, which represents the first example that the inherently chiral calixarene can be used as the chiral ligands for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis.

The resulting optically active alcohols were transformed into adequate DMAP derivatives, which have been applied in asymmetric catalytic processes as nucleophilic catalysts in the stereoselective chemical alkoxycarbonylation of 1-phenylethanol or as chiral ligands in the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde.
