Retro-Corey-Chaykovsky Epoxidation: Converting Geminal Disubstituted Epoxides to Ketones

Corey-Chaykovsky epoxidation has been widely applied in the conversion of aldehydes and ketones to epoxides with sulfonium and sulfoxonium ylides. The reverse transformation is realized for conversion of geminal disubstituted epoxides to ketones in the presence of DABCO in refluxing mesitylene. The method is a weak basic transformation from epoxides to ketones with loss of a methylene group and can be applied as an alternative strategy of the acid-catalyzed Meinwald rearrangement or oxidation for conversion of epoxides to carbonyl compounds.

Mild Iridium-Catalysed Isomerization of Epoxides. Computational Insights and Application to the Synthesis of β-Alkyl Amines

The isomerization of epoxides to aldehydes using the readily available Crabtree's reagent is described. The aldehydes were transformed into synthetically useful amines by a one-pot reductive amination using pyrrolidine as imine-formation catalyst. The reactions worked with low catalyst loadings in very mild conditions. The procedure is operationally simple and tolerates a wide range of functional groups. A DFT study of its mechanism is presented showing that the isomerization takes place via an iridium hydride mechanism with a low energy barrier, in agreement with the mild reaction conditions. (Figure presented.).

Biocatalytic Parallel Interconnected Dynamic Asymmetric Disproportionation of α-Substituted Aldehydes: Atom-Efficient Access to Enantiopure (S)-Profens and Profenols

The biocatalytic asymmetric disproportionation of aldehydes catalyzed by horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase (HLADH) was assessed in detail on a series of racemic 2-arylpropanals. Statistical optimization by means of design of experiments (DoE) allowed the identification of critical interdependencies between several reaction parameters and revealed a specific experimental window for reaching an ′optimal compromise′ in the reaction outcome. The biocatalytic system could be applied to a variety of 2-arylpropanals and granted access in a redox-neutral manner to enantioenriched (S)-profens and profenols following a parallel interconnected dynamic asymmetric transformation (PIDAT). The reaction can be performed in aqueous buffer at ambient conditions, does not rely on a sacrificial co-substrate, and requires only catalytic amounts of cofactor and a single enzyme. The high atom-efficiency was exemplified by the conversion of 75 mM of rac-2-phenylpropanal with 0.03 mol% of HLADH in the presence of ～0.013 eq. of oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), yielding 28.1 mM of (S)-2-phenylpropanol in 96% ee and 26.5 mM of (S)-2-phenylpropionic acid in 89% ee, in 73% overall conversion. Isolated yield of 62% was obtained on 100 mg-scale, with intact enantiopurities. (Figure presented.).

An unusual palladium hydride complex has been shown to be a competent catalyst in the isomerization of a variety of terminal and internal epoxides. The reaction displayed broad scope and synthetic utility. Experimental and theoretical evidence are provided for an unprecedented hydride mechanism characterized by two distinct enantio-determining steps. These results hold promise for the development of an enantioselective variant of the reaction.

β-tert-Butyl aspartate as an organocatalyst for the asymmetric α-amination of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes

The enantioselective α-amination reaction of α,α- disubstituted aldehydes can lead to a variety of enantioenriched amino aldehydes, amino alcohols, and amino acids. After screening a variety of amino acids and their derivatives, we identified a cheap, simple, commercially available aspartic acid derivative that can catalyze efficiently the reaction between α,α-disubstituted aldehydes and dialkyl azodicarboxylates. The reaction proceeds smoothly leading to the corresponding α-aminated adducts in moderate to quantitative yields and moderate to high enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee). Finally, the conversion of these adducts to α,α-disubstituted quaternary amino acids is also described.
