Efficient asymmetric catalysis of chiral organoaluminum complex for enantioselective ene reactions of aldehydes

Chiral organoaluminum complex 1 efficiently catalyzed the asymmetric hetero-ene reaction of commercially available 2-methoxypropene (2) with aldehydes under mild conditions to give the corresponding β-hydroxymethyl ketones 3 in good to excellent chemical

L-Proline catalysed asymmetric aldol reactions in PEG-400 as recyclable medium and transfer aldol reactions

L-Proline-catalysed direct asymmetric aldol reaction of acetone with various aldehydes in PEG-400 is described. Recycling of the catalyst and solvent (PEG) was possible up to ten runs without loss of catalyst activity. l-Proline was also found to be an efficient catalyst for the asymmetric transfer aldol reaction between various aldehydes and diacetone alcohol for the first time. Good yields and enantioselectivities were observed with both methods.

Diamine-protonic acid catalysts for catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction

Four different protonic acids and 15 diamines were screened in the catalytic asymmetric direct aldol reaction of three different aldehydes in acetone.

Diversity-based strategy for discovery of environmentally benign organocatalyst: Diamine-protonic acid catalysts for asymmetric direct aldol reaction

Fifteen different diamines (4-18) and potonic acids have been screened in the catalytic asymmetric direct aldol reaction of three different aldehydes in acetone. These initial studies demonstrated that the secondary-tertiary diamine series is effective wi

Reversal of enantioselectivity in aldol reaction: New data on proline/λ-alumina organic-inorganic hybrid catalysts

We report new results on the aldol reactions between aldehydes of three different types (aromatic, aliphatic and cycloaliphatic) and acetone/cycloalkanones as reaction partners, driven by organic-inorganic hybrid catalyst Pro/λ-Al2O3. In contrast to the homogeneous liquidphase reaction, over Pro/λ-Al2O 3reversal of the enantioselection in up to 20-40 % ee depending on the structure of the aldehyde was observed in reactions of acetone. Reversal of the ee in the presence of c-Al2O3cannot be generalized, as it has only been observed for acetone among the ketones studied by us. It was proven using methods of a great variety such as ultrasonic irradiation, reuse measurements on used catalyst and the filtrate of the first reaction, measurements on the L-Pro-L-Pro(OH) dipeptide, studies using mixtures of L-Pro and D-Pro that the organic-inorganic hybrid catalyst Pro/λ-Al 2O3formed in situ is responsible for reversal of the ee. In the reactions of cycloalkanones there is presumably competition between the liquid-phase and the surface reaction over Pro/ c-Al2O 3with preference for the former. Based on these results a surface reaction pathway was proposed. Although, the ees obtained under heterogeneous catalytic conditions are low, further studies may lead to application of this unusual phenomenon for obtaining chiral heterogeneous catalysts suitable for the preparation of the desired enantiomer of a chiral compound using the same chiral source.

Catalysis by metal-organic frameworks: Proline and gold functionalized MOFs for the aldol and three-component coupling reactions

Translation of homogeneous catalysis into heterogeneous catalysis is a promising solution to green and sustainable development in the chemical industry. Recent research has shown that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could bridge the gap between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. We successfully prepared for the first time a novel homochiral Zn-containing MOF referred to as CUP-1 based on the mixed linkers of 2-aminoterephthalic acid and l-lactic acid in a one-pot synthesis. The free NH2 group in the homochiral framework of CUP-1, similar to the well known achiral IRMOF-3, is potentially available for undergoing a variety of organic transformations, as demonstrated by choosing the auxiliary chiral l-proline and nano gold to functionalize MOFs with postsynthetic modification and one-pot synthesis strategies. IRMOF-3, CUP-1 and their functionalized samples were in-depth characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption, optical and transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis, and temperature-programmed reduction. l-Proline functionalized IRMOF-3 shows fair to excellent enantioselectivity (up to 98%) in asymmetrical aldol reactions of aldehydes and acetone with higher turnover numbers and catalytic stabilities than the homogeneous counterpart. The gold functionalized CUP-1 catalysts are found to be highly active, stable and reusable for the three-component coupling reactions of aldehydes, alkynes and amines. This work provides general methods to functionalize MOFs with the active ligand and metal nanoparticles for fabrication of highly efficient MOF-based heterogeneous catalysts.

The cinchona primary amine-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation and hydroperoxidation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with hydrogen peroxide

Using cinchona alkaloid-derived primary amines as catalysts and aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant, we have developed highly enantioselective Weitz-Scheffer-type epoxidation and hydroperoxidation reactions of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (up to 99.5:0.5 er). In this article, we present our full studies on this family of reactions, employing acyclic enones, 5-15-membered cyclic enones, and α-branched enals as substrates. In addition to an expanded scope, synthetic applications of the products are presented. We also report detailed mechanistic investigations of the catalytic intermediates, structure-activity relationships of the cinchona amine catalyst, and rationalization of the absolute stereoselectivity by NMR spectroscopic studies and DFT calculations.
