Herein, we disclose the Ni-catalyzed ring-opening C-O functionalization of peri-xanthenoxanthenes using Grignard reagents that forms 8-monofunctionalized binaphthols. 1,2-Bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane was the best ligand for alkylations and ICy for arylation. After mechanistic investigations, we assumed that the reaction proceeds via C-O reduction and subsequent C-O functionalization. To verify the mechanism, the intermediate after reduction was isolated. Moreover, the asymmetric addition, using 8-octylbinaphthol after optical resolution, was studied.

A chiral 2,2′-bipyridine ligand (1) bearing α,α′-trifluoromethyl-alcohols at 6,6′-positions was designed in five steps affording either the R,R or S,S enantiomer with excellent stereoselectivities, i.e. 97% de, >99% ee and >99.5% de, >99.5% ee, respectively. The key step for reaching high levels of stereoselectivity was demonstrated to be the resolution of the α-CF3-alcohol using (S)-ibuprofen as the resolving agent. An initial application for the 2,2′-bipyridine-α,α′-CF3-diol ligand was highlighted in the ZnII-catalyzed asymmetric ethylation reaction of aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic aldehydes. Synergistic electron deficiency and steric hindrance properties of the newly developed ligand afforded the corresponding alcohols in good to excellent yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (up to 95% ee). As observed from single crystal diffraction analysis, the complexation of the 2,2′-bipyridine-α,α′-CF3-diol ligand generates an unusual hexacoordinated ZnII.

Helically chiral poly(quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)s bearing 4-(dipropylamino)pyridin-3-yl pendants at the 5-position of the quinoxaline ring (PQXdpap) exhibited high catalytic activities and moderate to high selectivities (up to s = 87) in the acylative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols. The solvent-dependent helical chirality switching of PQXdpap between pure toluene and a 1:1 mixture of toluene and 1,1,2-trichloroethane enabled the preparation of either compound of a pair of enantiomerically pure alcohols (>99% ee) from a single catalyst.

The design strategy and the performance of binaphthyl-based chiral ligands were evaluated with computation and enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes. Under optimized conditions, enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes provided the desired optically active secondary alcohols in high isolated yields (up to 91%) and excellent enantiomeric excesses (up to 98% ee).
Chiral P,N-ligands for the highly enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes

, (2019/08/16)
A new sterically hindered chiral P,N-ligand was synthesized and successfully applied to copper catalyzed asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes. Various aromatic aldehydes can react smoothly to give the corresponding addition products with good to excellent enantioselectivities, which provides a readily accessible method for the preparation of chiral secondary alcohols.

The first copper(I)-catalyzed enantioselective borylation of racemic benzyl chlorides has been realized by a quadrant-by-quadrant structure modulation of QuinoxP*-type bisphosphine ligands. This reaction converts racemic mixtures of secondary benzyl chlorides into the corresponding chiral benzylboronates with high enantioselectivity (up to 92 % ee). The results of mechanistic studies suggest the formation of a benzylic radical intermediate. The results of DFT calculations indicate that the optimal bisphosphine-copper(I) catalyst engages in noncovalent interactions that efficiently recognize the radical intermediate, and leads to high levels of enantioselectivity.

An efficient synthetic route towards the synthesis of β-keto sulfones has been developed from secondary benzyl alcohols using N-bromosuccinimide (NBS). The present protocol utilizes NBS as oxidant as well as brominating agent, readily accessible benzyl alcohols and sodium arenesulfinates as the sulfonylating reagent under mild conditions. The control experiments revealed that the reaction proceeds via oxidation of alcohol to ketone, α-bromination of ketone and nucleophilic substitution by sodium arenesulfinate. Furthermore, the efficiency of the methodology was tested with a gram scale reaction and also shown the synthetic utility.

A series of bifunctional spiro ligands bearing “carboxamide–phosphine oxide” groups and ethylzinc carboxamidates from these ligands as catalysts for Et2Zn additions to aldehydes were reported. Excellent yields were obtained with moderate ee′s in Et2Zn additions to benzaldehyde derivatives, implying effectiveness of our newly designed catalytic structures as well as mediocre stereocontrol by these chiral ligands. Possible transition states were suggested based on the crystal structures of two ligands.
Noscapine Derivatives as New Chiral Catalysts in Asymmetric Synthesis: Highly Enantioselective Addition of Diethylzinc to Aldehydes

, p. 1841 - 1848 (2018/02/14)
Noscapine, a natural alkaloid, has never been used as a parent scaffold in chiral induction. The first examples of noscapinoid compounds as efficient catalysts in asymmetric synthesis are now reported. Three derivatives of noscapine were synthesized from its reaction with different Grignard reagents. Asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes was performed in the presence of these catalysts in high yields and good to excellentees.
Axially chiral tridentate isoquinoline derived ligands for diethylzinc addition to aldehydes
Sweetman, Brian A.,Guiry, Patrick J.
, p. 5567 - 5581 (2018/08/09)
The synthesis and resolution of new tridentate isoquinoline-derived ligands has been developed. The key steps in the synthetic sequence include successive, chemo-selective Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings of 1,3-dichloroisoquinoline with suitable arylboronic acids. The new ligands prepared in this manner were resolved either via molecular complexation with N-benzylcinchonidinium chloride as with 1-[3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)isoquinolin-1-yl]naphthalen-2-ol or via chromatographic separation of its epimeric camphorsulfonates as for 1,3-bis-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)isoquinoline. 4-tert-Butyl-2-chloro-6-[1-(2-hydroxymethylnaphthalen-1-yl)isoquinolin-3-yl]phenol was resolved by chiral semi-preparative HPLC. The application of these ligands in the diethylzinc addition to aldehydes was investigated. In certain cases, the desired secondary alcohols were obtained in high yield with excellent enantiomeric excess (ee > 99%) at low catalyst loading (1 mol%).
