- Production of enantiomerically enriched chiral carbinols using whole-cell biocatalyst
-
Biocatalytic asymmetric reduction of ketone is an efficient method for the production of chiral carbinols. The study indicates selective bioreduction of different ketones (1–8) to their respective (R)-alcohols (1a–8a) in low to high selectivity (0- >99%) with good yields (11–96%). In this work, whole-cell of Lactobacillus kefiri P2 catalysed enantioselective reduction of various prochiral ketones was investigated. (R)-4-Phenyl-2-butanol 2a, which is used as a precursor to antihypertensive agents and spasmolytics (anti-epileptic agents), was obtained using L kefiri P2 in 99% conversion and 91% enantiomeric excess (ee). Moreover, bioreduction of 2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one substrate 8, containing a branched alkyl chain and difficult to asymmetric reduction with chemical catalysts as an enantioselective, to (R)-2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-ol (8a) in enantiomerically pure form was carried out in excellent yield (96%). The gram-scale production was carried out, and 9.70 g of (R)-2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-ol (8a) in enantiomerically pure form was obtained in 96% yield. Also especially, the yield and gram scale of (R)-2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-ol (8a) synthesised through catalytic asymmetric reduction using the biocatalyst was the highest report so far. The efficiency of L kefiri P2 for the conversion of the substrates and ee of products were markedly influenced by the steric factors of the substrates. This is a cheap, clean and eco-friendly process for production of chiral carbinols compared to chemical processes.

- Manganese catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones
-
The asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of a wide range of ketones catalyzed by manganese complex as well as chiral PxNy-type ligand under mild conditions was investigated. Using 2-propanol as hydrogen source, various ketones could be enantioselectively hydrogenated by combining cheap, readily available [MnBr(CO)5] with chiral, 22-membered macrocyclic ligand (R,R,R',R')-CyP2N4 (L5) with 2 mol% of catalyst loading, affording highly valuable chiral alcohols with up to 95% ee.

- Metal-Organic Framework-Confined Single-Site Base-Metal Catalyst for Chemoselective Hydrodeoxygenation of Carbonyls and Alcohols
-
Chemoselective deoxygenation of carbonyls and alcohols using hydrogen by heterogeneous base-metal catalysts is crucial for the sustainable production of fine chemicals and biofuels. We report an aluminum metal-organic framework (DUT-5) node support cobalt(II) hydride, which is a highly chemoselective and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for deoxygenation of a range of aromatic and aliphatic ketones, aldehydes, and primary and secondary alcohols, including biomass-derived substrates under 1 bar H2. The single-site cobalt catalyst (DUT-5-CoH) was easily prepared by postsynthetic metalation of the secondary building units (SBUs) of DUT-5 with CoCl2 followed by the reaction of NaEt3BH. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) indicated the presence of CoII and AlIII centers in DUT-5-CoH and DUT-5-Co after catalysis. The coordination environment of the cobalt center of DUT-5-Co before and after catalysis was established by extended X-ray fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) and density functional theory. The kinetic and computational data suggest reversible carbonyl coordination to cobalt preceding the turnover-limiting step, which involves 1,2-insertion of the coordinated carbonyl into the cobalt-hydride bond. The unique coordination environment of the cobalt ion ligated by oxo-nodes within the porous framework and the rate independency on the pressure of H2 allow the deoxygenation reactions chemoselectively under ambient hydrogen pressure.

Mechanistic studies of Guerbet reaction, including kinetic experiments, mass analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) calculation, were employed to explain the fast reaction promoted by bimetallic catalysts, and the dramatic reactivity increase of monometallic catalysts at the late stage of the reaction.

We report a means to achieve the addition of two disparate nucleophiles to the amide carbonyl carbon in a single operational step. Our method takes advantage of non-precious-metal catalysis and allows for the facile conversion of amides to chiral alcohols via a one-pot Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling/transfer-hydrogenation process. This study is anticipated to promote the development of new transformations that allow for the conversion of carboxylic acid derivatives to functional groups bearing stereogenic centers via cascade processes.

- Visible Light Induced Reduction and Pinacol Coupling of Aldehydes and Ketones Catalyzed by Core/Shell Quantum Dots
-
We present an efficient and versatile visible light-driven methodology to transform aryl aldehydes and ketones chemoselectively either to alcohols or to pinacol products with CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots as photocatalysts. Thiophenols were used as proton and hydrogen atom donors and as hole traps for the excited quantum dots (QDs) in these reactions. The two products can be switched from one to the other simply by changing the amount of thiophenol in the reaction system. The core/shell QD catalysts are highly efficient with a turn over number (TON) larger than 4 × 104 and 4 × 105 for the reduction to alcohol and pinacol formation, respectively, and are very stable so that they can be recycled for at least 10 times in the reactions without significant loss of catalytic activity. The additional advantages of this method include good functional group tolerance, mild reaction conditions, the allowance of selectively reducing aldehydes in the presence of ketones, and easiness for large scale reactions. Reaction mechanisms were studied by quenching experiments and a radical capture experiment, and the reasons for the switchover of the reaction pathways upon the change of reaction conditions are provided.

- Boron containing chiral Schiff bases: Synthesis and catalytic activity in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of ketones
-
Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation (ATH) has been an attractive way for the reduction of ketones to chiral alcohols. A great number of novel and valuable synthetic pathways have been achived by the combination usage of organometallic and coordination chemistry for the production of important class of compounds and particularly optically active molecules. For this aim, four boron containing Schiff bases were synthesized by the reaction of 4-formylphenylboronic acid with chiral amines. The boron containing structures have been found as stable compounds due to the presence of covalent B–O bonds and thus could be handled in laboratory environment. They were characterized by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis and they were used as catalyst in the transfer hydrogenation of ketones to the related alcohol derivatives with high conversions (up to 99%) and low enantioselectivities (up to 22% ee).

Herein, we describe the generation of an organochromium-type carbanion species from a non-activated C-H bond and its nucleophilic addition to aldehydes. The catalytic carbanion generation occurred through formal deprotonation of a non-activated C-H bond under mild conditions and did not need the prefunctionalization or anion stabilizing group. Carbon radical intermediates generated by decatungstate photocatalyst-mediated hydrogen abstraction were captured by a chromium salt with the reductive radical-polar crossover reaction to produce organochromium carbanions.

Ketones are a fundamental functionality found throughout a range of natural and synthetic compounds, making their synthesis essential throughout the chemical disciplines. Herein, we describe a one-pot synthesis of ketones via decatungstate-mediated formal dehydrogenative coupling between aldehydes and non-activated hydrocarbons. A variety of substituted benzaldehydes and cycloalkanes could be used in the optimized reaction to produce the desired ketones in moderate yields. The decatungstate photocatalyst functions in two reactions in this synthesis, catalyzing both the coupling and oxidation steps of the process. Notably, the reaction displays both high atom economy and sustainability, as it uses light and oxygen as key energy sources.

- Iridium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones Controlled by Alcohol Hydrogen-Bonding and sp3-C?H Noncovalent Interactions
-
Iridium-catalyzed enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of ketones with formic acid was developed using a prolinol-phosphine chiral ligand. Cooperative action of the iridium atom and the ligand through alcohol-alkoxide interconversion is crucial to facilitate the transfer hydrogenation. Various ketones including alkyl aryl ketones, ketoesters, and an aryl heteroaryl ketone were competent substrates. An attractive feature of this catalysis is efficient discrimination between the alkyl and aryl substituents of the ketones, promoting hydrogenation with the identical sense of enantioselection regardless of steric demand of the alkyl substituent and thus resulting in a rare case of highly enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of tert-alkyl aryl ketones. Quantum chemical calculations revealed that the sp3-C?H/π interaction between an sp3-C?H bond of the prolinol-phosphine ligand and the aryl substituent of the ketone is crucial for the enantioselection in combination with O?H???O/sp3-C?H???O two-point hydrogen-bonding between the chiral ligand and carbonyl group.

A general and practical method for decarboxylative hydroxylation of carboxylic acids was developed through visible light-induced photocatalysis using molecular oxygen as the green oxidant. The addition of NaBH4 to in situ reduce the unstable peroxyl radical intermediate much broadened the substrate scope. Different sp3 carbon-bearing carboxylic acids were successfully employed as substrates, including phenylacetic acid-type substrates, as well as aliphatic carboxylic acids. This transformation worked smoothly on primary, secondary, and tertiary carboxylic acids.

-
A dicationic photoredox catalyst composed of phenylene-bridged bis(benzimidazolium) (BBIm2+) was designed, synthesised and demonstrated to promote the photochemical decarboxylative hydroxylation and dimerisation of carboxylic acids. The catalytic activity of BBIm2+ was higher than that for a monocation analogue, suggesting that the dicationic nature of BBIm2+ plays a key role in these decarboxylative reactions. The rate constant for the decay of the triplet-triplet absorption of the excited BBIm2+ increased with increasing concentration of the carboxylate anion with a saturated dependence, suggesting that photoinduced electron transfer occurs within the ion pair complex composed of the triplet excited state of BBIm2+ and a carboxylate anion.

The PhS-IPent-CYP-catalyzed reactions are efficient at low catalyst loadings (0.02–0.3 mol% Pd), and the exceptional catalytic activity for 1,2-addition is attributed to the steric bulk of the NHC ligand. These reactions can yield a wide range of functionalized benzylic alcohols that are difficult to synthesize by classical protocols using highly active organomagnesium or lithium reagents.

In this study, four bacterial strains were tested for their ability to reduce acetophenones to its corresponding alcohol. Among these strains Weissella paramesenteroides N7 was found to be the most successful biocatalyst to reduce the ketones to the corresponding alcohols. The reaction conditions were systematically optimized for W. paramesenteroides N7 that resulted in high enantioselectivity and conversion rates for the bioreduction. The scale-up asymmetric reduction of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-one (1r) by W. paramesenteroides N7 gave (R)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (2r) with 94% yield and >99% enantiomeric excess. This is the first report showing the synthesis of (R)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (2r) in enantiopure form using a biocatalyst on a gram scale. The whole cell catalyzed the reductions of ketone substrates on the preparative scale, demonstrating that W. paramesenteroides N7 would be a valuable biocatalyst for the preparation of chiral aromatic alcohols of pharmaceutical interest as a promising and alternative green approach.

- Towards practical earth abundant reduction catalysis: Design of improved catalysts for manganese catalysed hydrogenation
-
Manganese catalysts derived from tridentate P,N,N ligands can be activated easily using weak bases for both ketone and ester hydrogenations. Kinetic studies indicate the ketone hydrogenations are 0th order in acetophenone, positive order in hydrogen and 1st order in the catalyst. This implies that the rate determining step of the reaction was the activation of hydrogen. New ligand systems with varying donor strength were studied and it was possible to make the hydrogen activation significantly more efficient; a catalyst displaying around a 3-fold increase in initial turn-over frequencies for the hydrogenation of acetophenone relative to the parent system was discovered as a result of these kinetic investigations. Ester hydrogenations and ketone transfer hydrogenation (isopropanol as reductant) are first order for both the substrate and catalysts. Kinetic studies also gained insight into catalyst stability and identified a working range in which the catalyst is stable throughout the catalytic reaction (and a larger working range where high yields can still be achieved). The new more active catalyst, combining an electron-rich phosphine with an electron-rich pyridine is capable of hydrogenating acetophenone using as little as 0.01 mol% catalyst at 65 °C. In all, protocols for reduction of 21 ketones and 15 esters are described.

-
Tryptophan (Trp) catabolizing enzymes play an important and complex role in the development of cancer. Significant evidence implicates them in a range of inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities. Whereas inhibitors of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) have been reported and analyzed in the clinic, fewer inhibitors have been described for tryptophan dioxygenase (TDO) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-2 (IDO2) which also have been implicated more recently in cancer, inflammation and immune control. Consequently the development of dual or pan inhibitors of these Trp catabolizing enzymes may represent a therapeutically important area of research. This is the first report to describe the development of dual and pan inhibitors of IDO1, TDO and IDO2.

This manuscript describes the design and synthesis of Ru catalysts that feature only a single stereogenic element, yet this minimal chirality resource is demonstrated to be competent for effecting high levels of stereoinduction in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation over a broad range of ketone substrates, including those that are not accommodated by known catalyst systems. The single stereogenic center of the (1-pyridine-2-yl)methanamine) is the only point-chirality in the catalysts, which simplifies this catalyst system relative to existing literature protocols.

- Direct Synthesis of Cycloalkanes from Diols and Secondary Alcohols or Ketones Using a Homogeneous Manganese Catalyst
-
A method for the synthesis of substituted cycloalkanes was developed using diols and secondary alcohols or ketones via a cascade hydrogen borrowing sequence. A non-noble and air-stable manganese catalyst (2 mol %) was used to perform this transformation. Various substituted 1,5-pentanediols (3-4 equiv) and substituted secondary alcohols (1 equiv) were investigated to prepare a collection of substituted cyclohexanes in a diastereoselective fashion. Similarly, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, and cycloheptane rings were constructed from substituted 1,4-butanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, and 1,6-hexanediol, and sterically hindered ketones following a (4 + 1), (5 + 1), and (6 + 1) strategy, respectively. This reaction provides an atom economic methodology to construct two C-C bonds at a single carbon center generating high-value cycloalkanes from readily available alcohols as feedstock using an earth-abundant metal catalyst.

-
Novel nickel(II) complexes 1 and 2 could be conveniently prepared using PxNy-type ligands and easily available NiCl2·6H2O as a starting material. Furthermore, we obtained the single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction to confirm the structure of these two nickel(II) complexes. With the well-designed nickel(II) complex, the hydrogenation of a wide range of ketones proceeded smoothly under relative mild reaction conditions, affording the corresponding alcohols with high isolated yields.

- Efficient and Practical Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones Catalyzed by a Simple Bidentate Mn?NHC Complex
-
Catalytic reductions of carbonyl-containing compounds are highly important for the safe, sustainable, and economical production of alcohols. Herein, we report on the efficient transfer hydrogenation of ketones catalyzed by a highly potent Mn(I)?NHC complex. Mn?NHC 1 is practical at metal concentrations as low as 75 ppm, thus approaching loadings more conventionally reserved for noble metal based systems. With these low Mn concentrations, catalyst deactivation is found to be highly temperature dependent and becomes especially prominent at increased reaction temperature. Ultimately, understanding of deactivation pathways could help close the activity/stability-gap with Ru and Ir catalysts towards the practical implementation of sustainable earth-abundant Mn-complexes.

- Structural, kinetics and mechanistic studies of transfer hydrogenation of ketones catalyzed by chiral (pyridyl)imine nickel(ii) complexes

The chiral synthons (S-)-1-phenyl-N-(pyridine-2-yl)ethylidine)ethanamine (L1), (R-)-1phenyl-N-(pyridine-2-yl)ethylidine))ethanamine (L2) (S)-1-phenyl-N-(pyridine-2-yl methylene) ethanamine (L3), and (R)-1-phenyl-N-(pyridine-2-yl methylene) ethanamine (L4) were synthesized in good yields. Treatments of L1-L4 with NiBr2(DME) and NiCl2 precursor afforded dinuclear complexes [Ni2(L1)4-μ-Br2]NiBr4 (Ni1), [Ni2(L2)4-μ-Br2]NiBr4 (Ni2), [Ni2(L3)4-μBr2]Br2 (Ni3), [Ni2(L4)4-μ-Br2]NiBr4 (Ni4) and [Ni(L4)2Cl2] (Ni5). The identities of the compounds were established using NMR, FT-IR and EPR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, magnetic moments, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The dinuclear dibromide nickel complexes dissociate into mononuclear species in the presence of strongly coordinating solvents. Compounds Ni1-Ni5 displayed moderate catalytic activities in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of ketones, but with low enantiomeric excess (ee%). Both mercury and substoichiometric poisoning tests pointed to the homogeneous nature of the active species with the partial formation of catalytically active Ni(0) nanoparticles. Low resolution mass spectrometry analyses of the intermediates supported a dihydride mechanistic pathway for the transfer of hydrogenation reactions.

- Lutidine-Based Chiral Pincer Manganese Catalysts for Enantioselective Hydrogenation of Ketones
-
A series of MnI complexes containing lutidine-based chiral pincer ligands with modular and tunable structures has been developed. The complex shows unprecedentedly high activities (up to 9800 TON; TON=turnover number), broad substrate scope (81 examples), good functional-group tolerance, and excellent enantioselectivities (85–98 % ee) in the hydrogenation of various ketones. These aspects are rare in earth-abundant metal catalyzed hydrogenations. The utility of the protocol have been demonstrated in the asymmetric synthesis of a variety of key intermediates for chiral drugs. Preliminary mechanistic investigations indicate that an outer-sphere mode of substrate–catalyst interactions probably dominates the catalysis.

- Chiral Lithium Amido Aryl Zincates: Simple and Efficient Chemo- and Enantio-Selective Aryl Transfer Reagents
-
An enantioselective aryl transfer is promoted using chiral tricoordinated lithium amido aryl zincates that are easily accessible reagents and whose chiral appendage is simply recovered for reuse. The arylation reaction is run in good yields (60 % average on twenty substrates) and high enantiomeric excesses (95 % ee average). This occurs whatever the ortho, meta, or para substituent borne by the substrate and a complete chemoselectivity is observed with respect to the aldehyde function. Sensitive groups such as nitriles, esters, ketones, and enolisable substrates resist to the action of the ate reagent, warranting a large scope to this methodology.

Under optimized conditions, all complexes showed high catalytic activity as catalysts in the reduction of various ketones to corresponding chiral secondary alcohols. Products were obtained with high conversions (99%) and moderate to good enantioselectivities (82% ee). Furthermore, C2-symmetric bis(phosphinite) ligands and their binuclear ruthenium(II) complexes were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, LC/MS-MS and elemental analysis.

- Iridium and Rhodium Complexes Containing Enantiopure Primary Amine-Tethered N-Heterocyclic Carbenes: Synthesis, Characterization, Reactivity, and Catalytic Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Ketones
-
The imidazolium salt [(S,S)-tBuNC3H3NCHPhCHPhNH2]PF6, (S,S)-11·HPF6 is a precursor to the enantiopure "Kaibene" ligand, tBu-Kaibene, (S,S)-11 featuring a tert-butyl group on the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ring-nitrogen atoms. It has been prepared in high yield and purity by refluxing a chiral cyclic sulfamidate with 1-tert-butylimidazole. Similarly (S,S)-12·HPF6 with a mesityl group at the imidazolium ring-nitrogen atom has been prepared in the same fashion and serves as a source of Mes-Kaibene, (S,S)-12. These bidentate Kaibene ligands feature an NHC and a primary amine separated by a chiral linker. Salts (S,S)-11·HPF6 or (S,S)-12·HPF6 react with base and AgI or CuI to give a total of four M(Kaibene)2I compounds (M = Ag or Cu). At 22 °C, the amine-functionalized imidazolium cations undergo oxidative addition to iridium(I) in [IrCl(cod)]2 (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) to generate iridium(III) hydride R-Kaibene compounds [IrHCl(cod)((S,S)-11)](PF6) (17) and [IrHCl(cod)((S,S)-12)](PF6) (18), respectively, each as a mixture of six configurational isomers. In contrast, the salt (S,S)-11·HPF6 reacts with [Ir(OtBu)(cod)]2 to produce a bimetallic iridium compound with (S,S)-11 as the bridging ligand. This compound contains interesting NH···Cl and NH···Ir noncovalent intramolecular interactions. Salt (S,S)-12·HPF6 reacts with silver oxide to yield [Ag2((S,S)-12)2](PF6)2 (20). Reagent 20 serves as an efficient transmetalation reagent to deliver to each rhodium in [RhCl(cod)]2 1 equiv of (S,S)-12 as a bidentate ligand to give [Rh(cod)((S,S)-12)](PF6). In the reaction between [IrCl(cod)]2 and 20, (S,S)-12 ends up coordinated in an iridium(III) hydride complex (22) as a tridentate ligand via the NHC, NH2, and a cyclometalated phenyl group. The two iridium hydride compounds, 18 and 22, are catalysts for the hydrogenation of a range of ketones (turnover number up to 499, turnover frequency up to 249 h-1, with er (enantiomeric ratio) up to 35:65 R:S).

- A new class of well-defined ruthenium catalysts for enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of various ketones

A pair of novel optically pure phosphinite ligands were synthesized by ring opening reaction of chiral amines with (R)-styrene oxide or (S)-glycidyl phenyl ether oxide using a straightforward method in high yields and their ruthenium complexes were described in detail. The ruthenium complexes proved to be highly efficient catalysts for the enantioselective hydrogenation of ketones, affording products up to 99% ee. The results showed that the corresponding chiral alcohols could be obtained with high activity and excellent enantioselectivities at the desired temperature. (2S)-1-{benzyl[(1S)-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethyl]amino}-3-phenoxypropan-2-yl diphenylphosphinito[dichloro(η6-benzene)ruthenium (II)] acts an excellent catalyst in the reduction of ketones, giving the corresponding alcohol up to 99% ee.

The best result was achieved using ephedrine as the source of chirality, which is readily commercially available. The additive can be recovered through extraction and reused without any erosion of enantioselectivity.

- Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones with Well-Defined Manganese(I) PNN and PNNP Complexes

Three new manganese complexes trans-[Mn(P-NH-NH-P)(CO)2][Br], (14) P-NH-NH-P = (S,S)-PPh2CH2CH2NH-CHPhCHPhNHCH2CH2PPh2), fac-[Mn(P′-NH-NH2)(CO)3][Br], (15) P′-NH-NH2 = (S,S)-PPh2(C6H4)NHCHPhCHPhNH2, and syn-mer-Mn(P-NH-NH2)(CO)2Br, (16) P-NH-NH2 = (S,S)-PPh2CH2CH2NHCHPhCHPhNH2 were synthesized and tested for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of acetophenone in 2-PrOH. The ligands have stereogenic centers derived from the starting diamine, (S,S)-DPEN. Complex 16 was shown by NOE NMR experiments to have Mn-Br syn to the N-H of the secondary amine. Only the precatalyst 16, upon reaction with potassium tert-butoxide (KOtBu) in 2-PrOH, generated an active system at 80 °C for the ATH of acetophenone to 1-phenylethanol in an enantiomeric excess (ee) of 42% and thus was selected for further investigation into the mechanism of transfer hydrogenation. The corresponding amido complex Mn(P-N-NH2)(CO)2 (17), a borohydride complex syn-mer-Mn(P-NH-NH2)(CO)2(BH4) (18), and an ethoxide complex anti-mer-Mn(P-NH-NH2)(CO)2(OEt) (19′) were independently synthesized and tested in the ATH of acetophenone. The amido complex 17 and the borohydride complex 18 displayed similar activity to 16 activated in basic 2-PrOH, but the anti NH OEt complex 19′ was completely inactive. This result suggested that the NH effect, as described by Noyori, was required to obtain catalytic activity. The syn NH BH4 manganese complex is one of the most active manganese ATH catalysts to date and can hydrogenate a variety of aromatic ketones, including base-sensitive substrates such as p-acetylbenzoate ethyl ester.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioconvergent Borylation of Racemic Secondary Benzylic Electrophiles
-
Nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling has emerged as the most versatile approach to date for achieving enantioconvergent carbon–carbon bond formation using racemic alkyl halides as electrophiles. In contrast, there have not yet been reports of the application of chiral nickel catalysts to the corresponding reactions with heteroatom nucleophiles to produce carbon–heteroatom bonds with good enantioselectivity. Herein, we establish that a chiral nickel/pybox catalyst can borylate racemic secondary benzylic chlorides to provide enantioenriched benzylic boronic esters, a highly useful family of compounds in organic synthesis. The method displays good functional group compatibility (e.g., being unimpeded by the presence of an indole, a ketone, a tertiary amine, or an unactivated alkyl bromide), and both of the catalyst components (NiCl2?glyme and the pybox ligand) are commercially available.

- Enantioselective 1,2-Anionotropic Rearrangement of Acylsilane through a Bisguanidinium Silicate Ion Pair
-
Highly enantioselective bisguanidinium-catalyzed tandem rearrangements of acylsilanes are reported. The acylsilanes were activated via an addition of fluoride on the silicon to form a penta-coordinate anionic silicate intermediate. The silicate then underwent alkyl or aryl group migration from the silicon atom to the neighboring carbonyl carbon atom (1,2-anionotropic rearrangement), followed by [1,2]-Brook rearrangement to provide the secondary alcohols in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 95% ee). The isolation of an α-silylcarbinol intermediate as well as DFT calculations revealed that the 1,2-anionotropic rearrangement occurred via a bisguanidinium silicate ion pair, which is the stereodetermining step. The chiral center formed is then retained without inversion through the subsequent [1,2]-Brook rearrangement. Crotyl acylsilanes were smoothly transformed into homoallylic linear crotyl alcohols with retention of E/Z geometry, and no branched alcohols were detected. This clearly suggested that the 1,2-anionotropic rearrangement occurred through a three-membered instead of a five-membered transition state.

Kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols by benzoylation using a phosphinite derivative of (1S,2R)-1-amino-2-indanol as the catalyst was investigated. The aminophosphinite catalyst is effective for the kinetic resolution of aryl cycloalkyl carbinols with a small number of examples for organocatalytic kinetic resolution to achieve resolution with s = up to 44. Although the benzoylation of phenylalkanols proceeded with a low selectivity, 1-arylalkanols bearing at least one substituent at the ortho position on the benzene ring or a branched alkyl group on the carbinol carbon were resolved with acceptable selectivity.
