An air-stable P-chiral phosphine ligand for highly enantioselective transition-metal-catalyzed reactions

A new P-chiral phosphine ligand, (R,R)-2,3-bis(tert-butylmethylphosphino)quinoxaline, has been prepared by the reaction of enantiomerically pure tert-butylmethylphosphine-borane with 2,3-dichloroquinoxaline.

The Jones PLE active site model was applied to explain the enantioselectivity of this reaction.

The synthesis of P-chiral amino acid-derived phosphonamidic anhydrides

The synthesis of an array of P-chiral amino acid-derived phosphonamidic anhydrides is described. These anhydrides are prepared by condensation of allylated amino acids 19-22 with methyl- or vinylphosphonic dichlorides 23 or 24 to produce three diastereomeric anhydrides 4-11a-c in good to excellent yields. The mechanistic issues concerning anhydride formation are discussed and supported by experimental results. Vinylphosphonamidic anhydrides 8-11 are further derivatized via the ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction to yield amino acid-derived bicyclic phosphonamidic anhydrides.

The present report for the first time demonstrates successful asymmetric coordination-insertion (co)polymerization of vinyl acetate.

The introduction of P-chirality into ferrocene-based phosphine ligands enhances the enantioselective discrimination produced by the corresponding Rh catalyst when a matching among the planar chirality, carbon chirality, and the chirality of phosphorus is achieved.     

P-chiral,monodentate ferrocenyl phosphines,novel ligands for asymmetric catalysis

Eight P-chiral monodentate ferrocenyl phosphines (1a-h) were prepared in high enantiomeric excess (>95% ee in most cases) by way of an ephedrine-based oxazaphospholidine borane complex. Primary alkyl, secondary alkyl, and substituted aromatic substituents were successfully introduced at the phosphorus center, along with ferrocenyl and phenyl groups, generating phosphines of the general structure FcP(Ph)(R) (Fc = ferrocenyl, R = aryl, alkyl). The synthetic route employed provides facile access to a previously undeveloped class of chiral monophosphines. These compounds were evaluated as ligands in asymmetric catalytic reductive coupling of alkynes and aldehydes and were found to provide the desired chiral allylic alcohols with good regioselectivity and ee in many cases and with complete (E)-selectivity (>98:2) in all cases.     

Double diastereoselective intramolecular cyclopropanation to P-chiral [3.1.0]-bicyclic phosphonates

[reaction: see text] A double diastereotopic differentiation strategy on a phosphonoacetate template is described. The approach utilizes Rh(2)(OAc)(4)-catalyzed intramolecular cyclopropanation (ICP) employing the (R)-pantolactone auxiliary in the ester functionality of the phosphonoacetate. The olefinic diastereofacial selectivity is governed by inherent electronic and steric interactions in the reacting carbene intermediate, while the group selectivity is dictated by the chiral auxiliary. This approach is being developed as an effective method to access bicyclic P-chiral phosphonates.
