Lipase-catalyzed benzoylation of amines was shown to be feasible, in some cases with high enantioselectivity, and the best results were obtained using immobilized lipase from Candida antarctica (Novozym 435) and methyl benzoate as acyl donor in the presence of molecular sieves. The procedure was optimized for the resolution of (±)-1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine, a key intermediate in the synthesis of antihypertensive drug labetalol, and the enantiopure (R)-benzamide was then converted into the pharmacologically active isomers of the drug. In comparison with the reported synthesis of chiral isomers of labetalol, this chemoenzymatic route offers the advantage in the lack of any chiral stoichiometric auxiliary.

A series of novel C1-symmetric aminodiolate rare-earth-metal complexes have been prepared via arene elimination from [Ln(o-C 6H4CH2NMe2)3] (Ln = Y, Lu) and the corresponding aminodiol proligand. The NOBIN-derived aminodiolate ligands feature sterically demanding triphenylsilyl and methyldiphenylsilyl ortho substituents on the naphtholate moiety and substituents of varying steric demand ranging from tert-butyl to tris(3,5-xylyl)silyl on the phenolate moiety. Complexes with a triphenylsilyl substituent on the naphtholate moiety displayed good catalytic activity in the hydroamination/cyclization of aminoalkenes, while complexes with a methyldiphenylsilyl substituent exhibited somewhat lower reactivity. The highest enantioselectivities for five- and six-membered-ring formation were observed utilizing complex 9c-Lu (R1 = Ph, R 2 = Me, R3 = SiPh3) in the cyclization of (2,2-diphenylpent-4-enyl)amine (92% ee, Nt = 200 h-1 at 25 C) and (2,2-diphenylhex-5-enyl)amine (73% ee, Nt = 20 h-1 at 25 C). The complexes can be applied in asymmetric intermolecular hydroaminations of 1-heptene and 4-phenyl-1-butene with benzylamine with enantioselectivities of up to 40% ee using complex 9b-Y (R1 = Ph, R2 = Me, R3 = SiPh2Me). Here the higher catalytic activities are achieved with catalysts having a methyldiphenylsilyl substituent on the naphtholate moiety. Lanthanum aminodiolate catalysts generated in situ from [La{CH(C6H5)NMe2} 3] did not exhibit improved catalytic activity in the intermolecular hydroamination in comparison to the corresponding yttrium and lutetium catalysts. The overall catalytic activities of the aminodiolate complexes are somewhat diminished in comparison to previously studied binaphtholate complexes due to the presence of the additional amine donor site in the ligand framework.

A hard nut to crack: The asymmetric intermolecular Markovnikov addition of simple amines to unactivated alkenes can be achieved utilizing binaphtholate rare-earth-metal catalysts with up to 61% ee and 73% de in the case where R 2 contains a stereogenic center.
