Ultrafast Iron-Catalyzed Reduction of Functionalized Ketones: Highly Enantioselective Synthesis of Halohydrines, Oxaheterocycles, and Aminoalcohols

A molecularly defined chiral boxmi iron alkyl complex catalyzes the hydroboration of various functionalized ketones and provides the corresponding chiral halohydrines, oxaheterocycles (oxiranes, oxetanes, tetrahydrofurans, and dioxanes) and amino alcohols with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99 %ee) and conversion efficiencies at low catalyst loadings (as low as 0.5 mol %). Turnover frequencies of greater than 40000 h?1 at ?30 °C highlight the activity of this earth-abundant metal catalyst which tolerates a large number of functional groups.

2-Lithiated-2-phenyloxetane: A new attractive synthon for the preparation of oxetane derivatives

A valuable and direct method to access 2-substituted-2-phenyloxetanes by electrophilic quenching of the corresponding 2-lithiated derivative has, for the first time, been described. 2-Lithiated-2-phenyloxetane was found to be configurationally unstable. E

Applications of planar-chiral heterocycles in enantioselective catalysis: Cu(I)/bisazaferrocene-catalyzed asymmetric ring expansion of oxetanes to tetrahydrofurans

A planar-chiral, C2-symmetric bisazaferrocene ligand is shown to control the stereochemistry of Cu(I)-catalyzed ring expansions of oxetanes to tetrahydrofurans.
