In conclusion, we have developed an amino-supported solid
Pd-catalyzed domino reaction for the diastereoselective
construction of cyclopentenols with an alkynyl group, which are
key substructures and synthons of many bioactive compounds.
This heterogeneous catalyst exhibited high activity and
selectivity, as well as good recyclability. It was demonstrated
that the amino support interacts with Pd, on the one hand
improving the chemoselectivity of the heterogeneous palladium
catalyst, and on the other hand contributing to high palladium
activity in the domino reaction by protecting Pd species from
aggregating to Pd black. The chemoselectivity of the domino
reactions was readily controlled by switching the catalyst or
solvent, which allows chemodivergent syntheses of 2, 4 and 5 in
excellent yields. The domino strategy developed was also
extended to the asymmetric syntheses as well as oxidative
carbocyclization-borylation reactions. It is expected that our work
will stimulate more research on the development of
heterogeneous catalytic system for highly active and selective
transformations.
