- An Iridium Catalytic System Compatible with Inorganic and Organic Nitrogen Sources for Dual Asymmetric Reductive Amination Reactions
-
Asymmetric reductive amination (ARA) is one of the most promising methods for the synthesis of chiral amines. Herein we report our efforts on merging two ARA reactions into a single-step transformation. Catalyzed by a complex formed from iridium and a steric hindered phosphoramidite, readily available and inexpensive aromatic ketones initially undergo the first ARA with ammonium acetate to afford primary amines, which serve as the amine sources for the second ARA, and finally provide the enantiopure C2-symmetric secondary amine products. The developed process competently enables the successive coupling of inorganic and organic nitrogen sources with ketones in the same reaction system. The Br?nsted acid additive plays multiple roles in this procedure: it accelerates the formation of imine intermediates, minimizes the inhibitory effect of N-containing species on the iridium catalyst, and reduces the primary amine side products.

- Preparation method of chiral amine compounds
-
The invention discloses a preparation method of chiral amine compounds. The preparation method of the chiral amine compounds specifically comprises the following steps: adding ketone compounds and chiral auxiliary (S)-a-phenylethylamine or (R)-a-phenylethylamine to an organic solvent to prepare an imine intermediate under the action of a large-steric-hindrance boron catalyst and a water removing agent; adding a reducing agent to the imine intermediate without separation and purification, and preparing the chiral amine compounds with a one-pot method. By calculation, the product yield is 81%-96%, and the highest de value can reach 99%. Compared with the prior art, the use amount of the large-steric-hindrance boron catalyst in the method can be reduced to 0.1 mol%, use of the equivalent metal catalyst is avoided from the source, and the method has the characteristics of being simple to operate, mild in reaction condition, wide in substrate applicability, environmental friendly and the like, and has better application value and potential economic and social benefits.

The synthesis and study of the catalytic activity of 1,2,4,3-triazaphospholenes (TAPs) is reported. TAPs represent a more modular scaffold than previously reported diazaphospholenes. TAP halides were shown to catalyze the 1,2 hydroboration of 19 imines, and three α,β unsaturated aldehydes with pinacolborane, including examples that did not undergo hydroboration by previously reported diazaphospholene systems. DFT calculations support a mechanism where a triazaphospholene cation interacts with the substrate, a mechanism distinct from diazaphospholene catalyzed hydroborations.

- Phosphoramidite Ligands Based on Simple 1,2-Diols: Synthesis, Use in Copper-Catalyzed Asymmetric Additions, and Achirotopic Stereogenic Phosphorus Centres
-
Phosphoramidite ligands are widely used in catalysis and normally constructed from large C2-symmetrical diols such as BINOL or TADDOL. We report here on new ligands based on a set of simple diols that had been previously overlooked. Ligands based on (S,S)-trans-cyclohexanediol and (R,R)-(+)-1,2-diphenyl-1,2-ethanediol, in combination with both chiral and achiral amines, were tested in 3 different copper-catalyzed asymmetric reactions and up to 89% ee was observed. A different ligand gave the best results in each reaction examined. Using meso-cis-cyclohexanediol and meso-cis-diphenyl-1,2-ethanediol with a chiral non-racemic amine gave diastereomeric ligands bearing achirotopic stereogenic phosphorus atoms which were characterized with the assistance of X-ray crystallography and variable temperature NMR studies. This work provides a new set of ligands that may be useful in some asymmetric reactions when phosphoramidites based on BINOL and TADDOL are ineffective. We also identify a novel stereochemical feature of phosphoramidites that may be useful in asymmetric catalysis and ligand design. (Figure presented.).

- Design of modified amine transfer reagents allows the synthesis of α-chiral secondary amines via CuH-catalyzed hydroamination
-
The CuH-catalyzed hydroamination of alkenes and alkynes using a silane and an amine transfer reagent represents a simple strategy to access chiral amine products. We have recently reported methods to prepare chiral amines with high efficiency and stereoselectivity using this approach. However, the current technology is limited to the synthesis of trialkylamines from dialkylamine transfer reagents (R2NOBz). When monoalkylamine transfer reagents [RN(H)OBz] were used for the synthesis of chiral secondary amines, competitive, nonproductive consumption of these reagents by the CuH species resulted in poor yields. In this paper, we report the design of a modified type of amine transfer reagent that addresses this limitation. This effort has enabled us to develop a CuH-catalyzed synthesis of chiral secondary amines using a variety of amine coupling partners, including those derived from amino acid esters, carbohydrates, and steroids. Mechanistic investigations indicated that the modified amine transfer reagents are less susceptible to direct reaction with CuH.

An efficient method for the synthesis of various primary and secondary amines through a zirconium(IV) isopropoxide-mediated reductive amination reaction of aldehydes and ketones is reported. A series of different aldehydes, ketones and amines were used leading to the expected amino products in moderate to excellent yields. The mechanistic rationale of this reaction has been postulated through the formation of a transient imine species and a diastereoselective version using (R)-phenylethylamine as chiral inducer led to the expected products in moderate to excellent yields and with diastereoselectivities up to 100%.

- Practical synthesis of simplephos ligands: Further development of alkyl-substituted phosphanamines
-
Herein we disclose a rapid and easy synthetic procedure to access aryl- and alkyl-substituted phosphanamines (SimplePhos ligands). During the synthesis of a library of diverse aryl-substituted phosphanamine ligands we also found that alkyl-substituted phosphanamines can be synthesized and handled easily. This was unexpected as a previous report described them as highly air-sensitive compounds. Subsequently, we created a library of alkyl-substituted phosphanamines and found some to be highly efficient ligands in copper-catalyzed reactions such as the Cu-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition and propargylic alkylation reactions. Moreover, our efforts towards the synthesis of SimplePhos ligands led to the development of an easy and practical synthesis of diaryl(chloro)phosphanes, which is also presented in this paper.

The catalyst could be recycled by a facile procedure maintaining high activity. A one-flask synthesis of quinolizidine starting with 1,5,9-nonanetriol was also demonstrated. This new catalytic system would provide a practical and environmentally benign methodology for the synthesis of various organic amines.

-
In this paper the addition of organolithium reagents to chiral imidoylphenols to prepare enantiopure phenolic Mannich-type bases is described. The experimental data show that this kind of imine is surprisingly reactive toward organolithium reagents, differently from classical imines, and does not need any Lewis acid or base activation. Moreover, interesting results have been obtained with aldimines but more unusually with ketimines. This reaction results in high yields and diastereoselectivities and allows the preparation of aminophenols quaternary at the C-1 carbon atom, which cannot be prepared with the methods available till now. The sense of asymmetric induction has been explained and confirmed in agreement with the results previously obtained by hydride reduction of the same substrates. In some cases this procedure is complementary to the reductive one, allowing the preparation of the diastereomers less abundant in the reduction. The reaction allows the synthesis of one or the other of the two diastereomers, choosing the opportune starting imidoylphenol and the organolithium reagent.

The tin reagent worked particularly well for the case using weakly basic aromatic amines as starting substrates. Stoichiometric amounts of a substrate and a reducing agent were adequate for the reaction. The Sn-Cl bond in the complex plays an important role for both steps of imine formation and subsequent reduction. Highly chemoselective reduction of carbonyls could be achieved regardless of other functionalities such as halogen, carbon- carbon double bond and hydroxyl groups in the starting carbonyls and amines.

A range of imine complexes has been prepared which possess planar chirality associated with the attached tricarbonyl(1,2-disubstituted arene)chromium moiety.Nucleophilic addition to the imine group of these complexes occurs with high diastereoselectivity, providing an efficient route to the asymmetric synthesis of chiral amines.The stereochemical outcome of the additions may be rationalized in terms of a favoured conformer for the complexes, with nucleophilic attack occurring on the face of the imine anti to the sterically demanding Cr(CO)3 group.Related studies have also been carried out on imine complexes in which the chiral auxiliary is instead a carbon centre attached to the imine N atom.In these latter systems high diastereoselectivity was also observed, but was not superior to that achieved with the related free amines.

- Diastereoselective hydrogenation and kinetic resolution of imines using rhodium/diphosphine catalyzed hydrogenation
-
Kinetic resolution of racemic α-methylbenzyl amine can be achieved with 98% e.e. of the remaining amine at 70% conversion using the Rhodium/2S,4S-BDPP catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of imines. The same catalyst will hydrogenate optically pure α-methylbenzyl amines with a diastereoselectivity of up to 333:1.

- Diastereoselectivity of Organometallic Additions to Nitrones Bearing Sterogenic N-Substituents
-
The diastereoselectivity of organometallic additions to nitrones bearing stereogenic α-arylethyl, β-methoxyalkyl, and β-(silyloxy)alkyl substituents on nitrogen has been investigated.High and complementary diastereoselectivity (90-94percent) was observed in the additions of Grignard reagents to nitrones (e.g. 22 and 23) bearing the potentially chelating β-methoxyalkyl group.However, the opposite selectivity resulted from the reaction of methylmagnesium bromide with the corresponding silyl ether (27).The relative stereochemistry of selected hydroxylamine adducts wasestablished by reduction of their phosphate and carbonate derivatives to known amines (37a,b and 39), by periodate cleavage of a β-hydroxy hydroxylamine (41b), and by various correlations (Scheme II).The high facial diastereoselectivity observed with the N-(β-methoxyalkyl)nitrones is explained by a simple chelation model (Scheme III).

- ASYMMETRIC DEPROTONATION OF PROCHIRAL KETONES USING CHIRAL LITHIUM AMIDE BASES
-
A number of chiral secondary amines have been prepared and used as precursors to the corresponding chiral lithium amide bases.Treatment of either cis-2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone or 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone with a chiral lithium amide, followed by electrophilic quench, gives chiral products in up to 88 percent enantiomeric excess.The results with 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone are in disagreement with an earlier literature report, giving products of lower enantiomeric excess but higher optical rotation.
