Chirality induction of π-conjugated chains through chiral complexation

Chirality induction of π-conjugated polyanilines through chiral complexation with the chiral palladium(II) complexes was demonstrated to afford the chiral conjugated polymer complexes. Complexation of the emeraldine base of poly(o-toluidine) (POT) with the chiral palladium(II) complex bearing one labile coordination site led to the formation of the chiral conjugated polymer complex, which exhibited an induced circular dichroism (ICD) based on the chirality induction into a π-conjugated backbone. The mirror image of the CD signal was observed with the chiral conjugated polymer complex, which was obtained from the chiral palladium(II) complex possessing the opposite configuration. The chirality of the podand ligand moieties of the palladium complex is considered to induce a propeller twist of the π-conjugated molecular backbone. The crystal structure of the chiral conjugated complex of N-bis(4′-dimethylaminophenyl)-1,4-benzoquinonediimine (L³) as a model compound of the polyaniline revealed a chiral propeller twist conformation of the π-conjugated backbone. Furthermore, chiral complexation with the cationic palladium(II) complexes provided the ionic chiral conjugated complexes.     

Spontaneous resolution of chiral polyoxometalate-based compounds consisting of 3D chiral inorganic skeletons assembled from different helical units

Four enantiomerically pure 3D chiral POM-based compounds, [Ni(2)(bbi)(2)(H(2)O)(4)V(4)O(12)]2 H(2)O (1 a and 1 b) and [Co(bbi)(H(2)O)V(2)O(6)] (2 a and 2 b) (bbi=1,1'-(1,4-butanediyl)bisimidazole) based on the achiral ligand, different vanadate chains, and different metal centers have been synthesized by hydrothermal methods. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that 1 a and 1 b, and 2 a and 2 b, respectively, are enantiomers. In 1 a and 1 b two kinds of vanadate chains with different screw axes link Ni cations to generate 3D chiral inorganic skeletons, which are connected by the achiral bbi ligands to form complicated 3D 3,4-connected chiral self-penetrating frameworks with (7(2)8)(7(2)8(2)9(2))(7(3)8(2)10) topology. They represent the first examples of chiral self-penetrating frameworks known for polyoxometalate (POM) systems. Contrary to 1 a and 1 b, in 2 a and 2 b the vanadate chains link Co(II) cations to generate 3D chiral inorganic skeletons, which are assembled from two kinds of heterometallic helical units of opposite chirality along the c axes. The chiral inorganic skeletons are connected by bbi to form 3D 3,4-connected chiral POM-based frameworks with (6(2)8)(2)(6(2)8(2)10(2)) topology. It is believed that the asymmetrical coordination modes of the metal cations in 1 a-2 b generate the initial chiral centers, and that the formation of the various helical units and the hydrogen bond interactions are responsible for preservation of the chirality and spontaneous resolution when the chirality is extended into the homochiral 3D-networks. This is the first known report of chiral POM-based compounds consisting of 3D chiral inorganic skeletons being obtained by spontaneous resolution upon crystallization in the absence of any chiral source, which may provide a rational strategy for synthesis of chiral POM-based compounds by using achiral ligands and POM helical units.

Synthesis of Chiral beta 3-aminoxy peptides

A series of chiral beta(3)-aminoxy acids or amides with various side chains have been synthesized via two different approaches. One is the Arndt-Eistert homologation approach, using chiral alpha-aminoxy acids as starting materials. The other approach, utilizing the enantioselective reduction of beta-keto esters catalyzed by baker's yeast or chiral Ru(II) complexes, produces chiral beta(3)-aminoxy acids with nonproteinaceous side chains. The oligomers of beta(3)-aminoxy acids can be readily prepared using EDCI/HOAt as the coupling reagent.     

Synthesis and characterization of pyridine-based polyamido-polyester optically active macrocycles and enantiomeric recognition for D- and L-amino acid methyl ester hydrochloride

Five new chiral macrocycles, 3a-e, have been prepared by the acylation cyclization of chiral diamine dihydrobromide intermediates 2a-c with 2,6-pyridinedicarbonyl dichloride in highly diluted solution at room temperature. The chiral diesters 1a-c needed for the preparation of the macrocycles were obtained from condensation of corresponding N-(Z)-L-amino acids and 2,6-bishydroxymethyl pyridine in the presence of DCC and DMAP. The enantiomeric recognition of chiral macrocycles 3a-e for D- and L-amino acid methyl ester hydrochlorides has been characterized by fluorescence spectra, which indicate that some of them exhibited significant chiral recognition for the enantiomers of D- and L-amino acid methyl ester hydrochlorides. The stoichiometry and binding constants of 3a-L-Am(2) and 3c-L-Am(2) complexes have been determined. An X-ray analysis of the chiral macrocycle 3b show that the chiral ligand is rather rigid and strained.

Amplification of chirality: the "sergeants and soldiers" principle applied to dynamic hydrogen-bonded assemblies

The amplification of supramolecular chirality has been studied in dynamic chiral hydrogen-bonded assemblies 1(3).(CA)(6) using "Sergeants and Soldiers" experiments. Previously, we have shown that chiral centers present in either the dimelamine component 1 or the cyanurate component CA quantitatively induce one handedness (M or P) in the assembly. This offers the possibility to study the amplification of chirality under two different kinetic regimes. When chiral dimelamines 1 are used, the exchange of chiral components and (M/P)-interconversion, i.e., interconversion between the (M)- and (P)-isomers of assembly 1(3).(CA)(6), take place via identical pathways (condition A). When chiral cyanurates CA are used, the exchange of chiral components occurs much faster than (M/P)-interconversion (condition B). Experimentally, a much stronger chiral amplification is observed under condition B. For example, the observed chiral amplification for a mixture of chiral and achiral components (40:60) is 46% under condition B and 32% under condition A. Kinetic models were developed to fit the experimental data and to simulate chiral amplification in dynamic systems in general. These simulations show that it is theoretically possible that the diastereomeric excess in a dynamic system is more than 99% with less than 1% chiral component present!     

Control of helix sense in protein-mimicking backbone by the noncovalent chiral effect

We have reviewed our previous work regarding induction or control of a peptide helix sense through chiral stimulus to the peptide chain terminus. An optically inactive 3(10)-helix designed mainly with unusual alpha-amino acid residues was commonly employed. Such an N-terminal-free peptide generates a preferred helix sense by chiral acid molecule. A helix sense pre-directed in chiral sequence is also influenced or controlled by the chiral sign of such external molecule. Here free amide groups in the 3(10)-helical N-terminus participate in the formation of a multipoint coordinated complex. The terminal asymmetry produces the noncovalent chiral domino effect (NCDE) to influence the whole helix sense. The NCDE-mediated control of helicity provides the underlying chiral nature of protein-mimicking helical backbones: notably, chiral recognition at the terminus and modulation of helical propensity through chiral stimulus. The above items from our previous reports have been outlined and reviewed together with their significance in biopolymer science and chiral chemistry.     

Design and synthesis of chiral alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids and conformational study of their oligopeptides

alpha,alpha-Disubstituted amino acids are alpha-amino acids in which the hydrogen atom at the alpha-position of the L-alpha-amino acid is replaced with an alkyl substituent. The introduction of an alpha-alkyl substituent changes the properties of amino acids, with the conformational freedom of the side chain in the amino acids and the secondary structure of their peptides being especially restricted. The author developed a synthetic route of optically active alpha-ethylated alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids using chiral cyclic 1,2-diol as a chiral auxiliary. It was found that the preferred secondary structure of peptides composed of chiral alpha-ethylated alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids is a fully extended C5-conformation, whereas that of peptides composed of chiral alpha-methylated alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids is a 3(10)-helical structure. Also, a new chiral cyclic amino acid; (3S,4S)-1-amino-3,4-di(methoxy)cyclopentanecarboxylic acid {(S,S)-Ac5c(dOM)}, and a bicyclic amino acid; (1R,6R)-8-aminobicyclo[4.3.0]non-3-ene-8-carboxylic acid {(R,R)-Ab5,6= c}, in which the alpha-carbon atom is not the chiral center but chiral centers exist at the side-chain cycloalkane skeleton, were designed and synthesized. The (S,S)-Ac5c(dOM) hexa- and octapeptides preferentially formed left-handed (M) helices, in which the helical-screw direction is exclusively controlled by the side-chain chiral centers. Contrary to the left-handed helices of (S,S)-Ac(5)c(dOM) peptides, the (R,R)-Ab5,6= c hexapeptide formed both diastereomeric right-handed (P) and left-handed (M) helices, and the twelve chiral centers at the side chain showed no preference for helical-screw direction. Thus, the chiral environment at the side chain is important for the control of helical-screw direction. Furthermore, the author designed a new class of chiral cyclic alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids that have pendant chiral centers at the substituent of the delta-nitrogen atom. The synthetic route would provide various optically-active cyclic alpha,alpha-disubstituted amino acids bearing a pendant chiral moiety.

Highly enantioselective synthesis of chiral 3-substituted indolines by catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of indoles

[reaction: see text] N-Tosyl 3-substituted indoles were hydrogenated with high enantioselectivities (95-98% ee) by use of a trans-chelating chiral bisphosphine, (S,S)-(R,R)-PhTRAP ligand. The chiral catalyst, which was generated in situ from [Rh(nbd)(2)]SbF(6), PhTRAP, and Cs(2)CO(3), is useful for enantioselectively synthesizing a range of diverse optically active indolines possessing a chiral carbon at the 3-position.

Chiral Ru-based complexes for asymmetric olefin metathesis: enhancement of catalyst activity through steric and electronic modifications

Design, synthesis, characterization, and catalytic activity of six enantiomerically pure Ru-based metathesis catalysts are disclosed (3a-3f). The new chiral catalysts were prepared through steric and electronic alterations of the parent catalyst system (3). The present studies indicate that the effect of structural modifications of chiral complex 3 does not always correspond to those of the related achiral complexes. The present findings illustrate that modified Ru complexes (3e and 3f) deliver reactivity levels that are more than 2 orders of magnitude higher than 3. Reactivity and physical data are provided that shed light on the origin of activity differences. Some members of the new generation of chiral Ru catalysts promote asymmetric ring-opening (AROM) and ring-closing (ARCM) metatheses that cannot be effected by the first generation chiral catalyst (3).     

Synthesis and characterization of some new C2 symmetric chiral bisamide ligands derived from chiral Feist's acid

The hemilabile chiral C2 symmetrical bidentate substituted amide ligands (1R,2R)-5(a-d) and (1S,2S)-6(a-d) were synthesized in quantitative yield from (1R,2R)-(+)-3-methylenecyclo-propane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (1R,2R)-3 and (1S,2S)-(-)-3-methylene-cyclopropane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (1S,2S)-3, in two steps, respectively. The chiral Feist's acids (1R,2R)-3 and (1S,2S)-3 were obtained in good isomeric purity by resolution of trans-(±)-3-methylene-cyclopropane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid from an 8:2 mixture of tert-butanol and water, using (R)-(+)-α-methylbenzyl amine as a chiral reagent. This process is reproducible on a large scale. All these new synthesized chiral ligands were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, and mass spectrometry, as well as elemental analysis and their specific rotations were measured. These new classes of C2 symmetric chiral bisamide ligands could be of special interest in asymmetric transformations.     

New Chiral Metal Cluster Systems for Catalytic Asymmetric Syntheses of Chiral Alcohols

The efficient chiral Ru3(CO)12 systems were prepared in situ from Ru3(CO)12 and various chiral diiminoor diamino-diphosphine tetradentate ligands. The systems have been used for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of propiophenone in 2-propanol, leading to 1-phenyl-1-propanol in a 98% yield and 96% e.e. The IR study suggests that the carbonyl hydride anion [HRu3(CO)11]^- most probably exists as a principal species under the reaction conditions. The high chiral efficiency may be due to the synergetic effect produced by the neighboring ruthenium atoms and a special chiral micro-environment involving the polydentate ligand and the Ru3 framework.     

Synthesis and structural chemistry of alkali metal tris(HMDS) magnesiates containing chiral diamine donor ligands

Six alkali metal tris(HMDS) magnesiate complexes (HMDS, 1,1,1,3,3,3,-hexamethyldisilazide) containing chiral diamine ligands have been prepared and characterised in both the solid- and solution-state. Four of the complexes have a solvent-separated ion pair composition of the form [{M·(chiral diamine)(2)}(+){Mg(HMDS)(3)}(-)] [M = Li for 1 and 3, Na for 2 and 4; chiral diamine = (-)-sparteine for 1 and 2, (R,R)-TMCDA for 3 and 4, (where (R,R)-TMCDA is N,N,N',N'-(1R,2R)-tetramethylcyclohexane-1,2-diamine)] and two have a contacted ion pair composition of the form [{K·chiral diamine}(+){Mg(HMDS)(3)}(-)](n) [chiral diamine = (-)-sparteine for 5 and (R,R)-TMCDA for 6]. In the solid-state, complexes 1-4 are essentially isostructural, with the lithium or sodium cation sequestered by the respective chiral diamine and the previously reported anion consisting of three HMDS ligands coordinated to a magnesium centre. As such, complexes 1-4 are the first structurally characterised complexes in which the alkali metal is sequestered by two molecules of either of the chiral diamines (-)-sparteine (1 and 2) or (R,R)-TMCDA (3 and 4). In addition, complex 4 is a rare (R,R)-TMCDA adduct of sodium. In the solid state, complexes 5 and 6 exist as polymeric arrays of dimeric [{K·chiral diamine}(+){Mg(HMDS)(3)}(-)](2) subunits, with 5 adopting a two-dimensional net arrangement and 6 a linear arrangement. As such, complexes 5 and 6 appear to be the only structurally characterised complexes in which the chiral diamines (-)-sparteine (5) or (R,R)-TMCDA (6) have been incorporated within a polymeric framework. In addition, prior to this work, no (-)-sparteine or (R,R)-TMCDA adducts of potassium had been reported.     

新型糖基聚合物的合成及其作为高效液相色谱手性固定相的应用(英文)

Two novel polymers containing glucose units as the main-chain that only differ in terms of their regioregularity were synthesized to evaluate their chiral recognition abilities as chiral stationary phases(CSPs)for high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).The regioregular polymer(poly-5)shows clear resolution ability for the racemate of cobalt(Ⅲ)acetylacetonate(Co(acac)3),whereas the corresponding regioirregular polymer(poly-3)does not show any chiral recognition for Co(acac)3.The regioregular polymer main-chain seems to play an important role not only in providing an efficient interaction with the racemate but also in expressing the chiral recognition ability as a CSP for HPLC.
