Helically chiral poly(quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)s bearing 4-aminopyrid-3-yl pendants were synthesized as new helical-polymer-based chiral nucleophilic organocatalysts. The obtained chiral nucleophilic polymer catalysts exhibited high catalytic activity, enantioselectivity, and reusability in asymmetric Steglich rearrangement of oxazolyl carbonate to C-carboxyazlactone. The polyquinoxaline-based, helically chiral DMAP catalyst mediated intramolecular acyl transfer selectively, by contrast with known small-molecule-based chiral organocatalysts, which also mediate intermolecular acyl transfers.

A short synthetic approach toward a novel class of chiral nucleophilic catalysts, the dissymmetry of which stems from restricted rotation about an Ar-Ar bond, has been developed. The key steps of the synthesis include preparation of a nucleophilic 1-methyl-2-pyrrolino[3,2-c]pyridine core 16 by ortho-lithiation and creation of the biaryl axes via Suzuki cross-coupling reactions. Comparative HPLC studies of racemization for configurationally labile biaryls 31, 38, and 43 containing 1-methyl-2-pyrrolino[3,2-c]pyridine, 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine, and 4-(1-pyrrolidino)pyridine cores, respectively, have demonstrated that a pyrrolidino substituent ortho to the biaryl axis is optimal for slowing Ar-Ar rotation. Biaryls containing all three cores have been shown to retain DMAP-like catalytic activity in the acylation of a hindered alcohol. Biaryls 55 and 56, which are configurationally stable at ambient temperature, have also been prepared via modification of configurationally labile derivatives. Compounds 55 and 56 in optically pure form should provide a useful starting point for studies on catalytic asymmetric acyl transfer using atropisomeric analogues of DMAP.
