We have developed a stereospecific, nickel-catalyzed Miyaura borylation of allylic pivalates, which delivers highly enantioenriched α-stereogenic γ-aryl allylboronates with good yields and regioselectivities. Our complementary sets of conditions enable access to either enantiomer of allylboronate product from a single enantiomer of readily prepared allylic pivalate substrate. Excellent functional group tolerance, yields, regioselectivities, and stereochemical fidelities are observed. The stereochemical switch from stereoretention to stereoinversion largely depends upon solvent and can be explained by competitive pathways for the oxidative addition step. Our mechanistic investigations support a stereoretentive pathway stemming from a directed oxidative addition and a stereoinvertive pathway that is dominant when MeCN blocks coordination of the directing group by binding the nickel catalyst.

An efficient method for the catalytic asymmetric additions to aldehydes using organolithium reagents and titanium(IV) isopropoxide in the presence of commercially available and relatively inexpensive diol ligands, such as (S)-BINOL or D-TADDOL has been developed. Good to excellent yields (up to 92%) and enantioselectivities (up to 94%) of the corresponding secondary alcohol products can be obtained following a simple procedure at relatively mild reaction temperatures.

An efficient method for Pd-catalyzed stereospecific allyl-aryl coupling of allylic alcohols with arylboronic acids has been described. The reactions proceeded smoothly in the presence of Pd2(dba)3· CHCl3 and racemic BINAP
Room temperature and highly enantioselective additions of alkyltitanium reagents to aldehydes catalyzed by a titanium catalyst of (R)-h 8-binol

experimental part, p. 929 - 939 (2012/06/29)
Three alkyltitanium reagents of RTi(O-i-Pr)3 (R = Cy (1a), i-Bu (1b), and n-Bu (1c)) were prepared in good yields. The high-resolution mass spectroscopy showed that 1b and 1c in the gas phase are monomeric species. However, the solid state of 1a revealed a dimeric structure. Asymmetric additions of 1a-1c to aldehydes catalyzed by a titanium catalyst of (R)-H 8-BINOL were studied at room temperature. The reactions produced desired secondary alcohols in good yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities of up to 94% ee. Reactivity and enantioselectivity differences, in terms of steric bulkiness of the R nucleophiles, are herein described. The addition reactions of secondary c-hexyl to aldehydes were slower than the reactions of primary i-butyl or n-butyl nucleophiles. For the primary alkyls, lower enantioselectivities were obtained for products from addition reactions of the linear n-butyl as compared with the enantioselectivities of products from the addition reactions of the branched i-butyl group. The same stereochemistry of RTi(O-i-Pr)3 addition reactions as the addition reactions of organozinc, organoaluminum, Grignard, or organolithium reagents directly supports the argument of that titanium-catalyzed addition reactions of aldehydes involve an addition of an organotitanium nucleophile.

Reactions between acyclic (E)-allylic acetates and arylboronic acids in the presence of a palladium catalyst prepared from Pd(OAc)2, phenanthroline (or bipyridine), and AgSbF6 (1:1.2:1) proceeded with excellent γ-selectivity to afford allyl-aryl coupling products with E-configuration. The reactions of α-chiral allylic acetates took place with excellent α-to-γ chirality transfer with syn stereochemistry to give allylated arenes with a stereogenic center at the benzylic position. The reaction tolerated a broad range of functional groups in both the allylic acetates and the arylboronic acids. Furthermore, γ-arylation of cinnamyl alcohol derivatives afforded gem-diarylalkane derivatives containing an unconjugated alkenic substituent. The synthetic utility of this method was demonstrated by its utilization in an efficient synthesis of (+)-sertraline, an antidepressant agent. The observed γ-regioselectivity and E-1,3-syn stereochemistry were rationalized based on a Pd(II) mechanism involving transmetalation between a cationic mono(acyloxo)palladium(II) complex and arylboronic acid, and directed carbopalladation followed by syn-β-acyloxy elimination. The results of stoichiometric reactions of palladium complexes related to possible intermediates were fully consistent with the proposed mechanism.

Alkenylboronates were used as a vinyl source in the asymmetric addition of an alkenylzinc reagent to aldehydes catalyzed by a dendritic ligand. The resulting allylic alcohol products were obtained in 66-96% ee and 35-64% yields.

The introduction of a thiol group into a chiral alcohol reagent for asymmetric Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reductions allows asymmetric reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones to secondary alcohols and allylic alcohols via a novel tandem Michael addition/MPV reduction. The reaction of acyclic α,β-unsaturated ketones 1 and an optically active 1,3-mercapto alcohol (-)-2 using dimethylaluminum chloride afforded the MPV reduction products 3 diastereoselectively in very high yields (up to 96%). Mechanistic studies elucidated (1) the structure of the chelation complex D with (-)-2 and Me2AlCl, (2) an asymmetric 1,7-hydride shift (intramolecular MPV reduction), and (3) dynamic kinetic resolution via reversible Michael addition. Subsequent reductive desulfurization of the MPV products 3 with a modified Raney nickel system led to the highly enantioselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones to saturated secondary alcohols in 96-98% ee. β-Elimination of the corresponding sulfoxides gave the allylic alcohols in 86-98% ee. Applications to the asymmetric reduction of a synthetic intermediate 1m of prostaglandins and to a new asymmetric synthesis of the (+)-Rove beetle pheromone 11 are described.
Preparation of polyfunctional diorganomercurials and their transmetallation to diorganozincs. Applications to the preparation of optically active secondary alcohols

Two new methods of preparation of functionalized diorganomercurials have been developed.The first method involves a substitution reaction of (ICH2)2Hg with zinc-copper reagents FG-RCu(CN)ZnI in THF/DMF at -60 deg C.Functional groups such as an ester, nitrile, ketone, phosphonate, halide, and boronic ester are tolerated in this reaction.The second method involves a reductive transmetallation between polyfunctional organozinc halides and mercurous chloride (Hg2Cl2).This very convenient procedure provides a rapid route to various functionalized diorganomercurials in good yields (61-89percent yield).The synthetic utility of these mercury organometallics is demonstrated.Their transmetallation with zinc dust (toluene, 80 deg C, 3-5 h) affords dialkylzincs which add enantioselectively to aldehydes in the presence of a catalytic amount (20 molpercent) of the norephedrine derivative 13.This transmetallation can also be used to prepare stereoselectively (E)-alkenylzinc halides (> 98percent E).Addition of Cl(H)ZrCp2 to (E)-5-chloropentenylzinc bromide in CH2Cl2 (25 deg C, 1 min) affords a 1,1-bimetallic of zinc and zirconium Cl(CH2)4CH(ZnBr)ZrCp2(Cl) which reacts stereoselectively with an aldehyde providing the (E)-disubstituted olefin (49percent yield; 100percent E).
