The asymmetric synthesis of β2,2-amino acids remains a formidable challenge in organic synthesis. Here a novel organocatalytic enantioselective aminomethylation of ketenes with stable and readily available N,O-acetals is reported, providing β2,2-amino esters bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center in high enantiomeric ratios with a catalytic amount of chiral phosphoric acid. Typically, this transformation probably proceeds through an asymmetric counter-anion-directed catalysis. As a result, a concise, practical, and atom-economic protocol toward rapidly access to β2,2-amino acids has been developed.

Addition of the lithium salts of chiral N-substituted tert-butanesulfinamides to ketenes and subsequent silylation initiates stereoselective [2,3]-rearrangement, which affords enantioenriched α,α-disubstituted α-sulfenyloxy carboxamides through a reaction

Stereo- and chemodivergent enantioselective reaction pathways are observed upon treatment of alkylarylketenes and trichloroacetaldehyde (chloral) with N-heterocyclic carbenes, giving selectively either β-lactones (up to 88:12 dr, up to 94% ee) or α-chloroesters (up to 94% ee). Either 2-arylsubstitution or an α-branched iPr alkyl substituent within the ketene favours the chlorination pathway, allowing chloral to be used as an electrophilic chlorinating reagent in asymmetric catalysis.

A chiral NHC catalyzes the asymmetric formal [2 + 2] cycloaddition of alkylarylketenes with both electron-deficient benzaldehydes and 2- and 4-pyridinecarboxaldehydes to generate stereodefined β-lactones. In the benzaldehyde series, optimal product diastereo- and enantiocontrol is observed using 2-nitrobenzaldehyde (up to 93:7 dr (syn:anti) and 93% ee). Substituted 2- and 4-pyridinecarboxaldehydes are also tolerated in this process, generating the corresponding β-lactones in good yield and enantioselectivity, although the diastereocontrol in these processes is highly dependent upon the aldehyde substitution. These processes are readily scalable, allowing multigram quantities of the β-lactone products to be prepared. Derivatization of these products, either through ring opening into the corresponding stereodefined β-hydroxy and β-amino acid derivatives without loss of stereochemical integrity or via cross-coupling, is demonstrated.

A new pericyclic cascade is proposed for the chiral auxiliary-controlled synthesis of 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles from nitrones and ketenes. The remarkable acyclic 1,6-stereochemical induction, hitherto unexplained, is rationalized by a stereoselective 3+

The reaction of a chiral N-phenylnitrone derived from Garner's aldehyde with alkylarylketenes generates 3-alkyl-3-aryloxindoles directly in excellent yields and with good to excellent levels of enantioselectivity (up to 90% ee).
N-heterocyclic carbene-mediated enantioselective addition of phenols to unsymmetrical alkylarylketenes
Concellon, Carmen,Duguet, Nicolas,Smith, Andrew D.
supporting information; experimental part, p. 3001 - 3009 (2010/03/26)
Chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) mediate the enantioselective addition of 2-phenylphenol to unsymmetrical alkylarylketenes, delivering α-alkyl-α-arylacetic acid derivatives with good levels of enantiocontrol (up to 84% ee). Enantiodivergent stereochemical outcomes are observed using 2-phe-nylphenol and benzhydrol in the NHC-promoted esterification reaction using a triazolium precatalyst derived from pyroglutamic acid, consistent with distinct mechanistic pathways operating within these processes.
