Synthesis and application of monoterpene-based chiral aminodiols
Primary, secondary and tertiary aminodiols were synthetized regio- and stereoselectively from (-)-α-pinene 1 via α-pinene oxide 2, (-)-trans-pinocarveol 3 and key intermediate epoxy alcohol 4. N-Benzyl derivative 5 was transformed to spiro-fused oxazolidine 13 in a highly regioselective ring closure. Aminodiols and their derivatives 5-13 were applied as chiral catalysts in the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde, resulting in chiral 1-phenyl-1-propanol. The substituent effect on the nitrogen was studied in detail and the best enantioselectivity was observed in the case of N-methyl-N-benzyl-substituted derivative 8. The phenomenon was interpreted by using molecular modelling at an ab initio level.
