Versatile Homoallylic Boronates by Chemo‐, SN2′‐, Diastereo‐ and Enantioselective Catalytic Sequence of Cu−H Addition to Vinyl‐B(pin)/Allylic Substitution |
| |
Abstract: | A highly chemo‐, diastereo‐ and enantioselective catalytic method that efficiently combines a silyl hydride, vinyl‐B(pin) (pin=pinacolato) and (E)‐1,2‐disubstituted allylic phosphates is introduced. Reactions, best promoted by a Cu‐based complex with a chiral sulfonate‐containing N‐heterocyclic carbene, are broadly applicable. Aryl‐, heteroaryl‐, alkenyl‐, alkynyl‐ and alkyl‐substituted allylic phosphates may thus be converted to the corresponding homoallylic boronates and then alcohols (after C−B bond oxidation) in 46–91 % yield and in up to >98 % SN2′:SN2 ratio, 96:4 diastereomeric ratio and 98:2 enantiomeric ratio. The reasons why an NHC−Cu catalyst is uniquely effective (vs. the corresponding phosphine systems) and the basis for different trends in stereoselectivity are provided with the aid of DFT calculations. |
