We report a copper-catalyzed enatiotopic-group-selective allylation of gem-diborylalkanes with allyl bromides. The combination of copper(I) bromide and H8-BINOL derived phosphoramidite ligand proved to be the most effective catalytic system to provide various enantioenriched homoallylic boronate esters, containing a boron-substituted stereogenic center that is solely derived from gem-diborylalkanes, in good yields with high enantiomeric ratios under mild conditions. Experimental and theoretical studies have been conducted to elucidate the reaction mechanism, revealing how the enatiotopic-group-selective transmetalation of gem-diborylalkanes with chiral copper complex occurs to generate chiral α-borylalkyl-copper species for the first time. Additional synthetic applications to the synthesis of various chiral building blocks are also included.

Mechanistic studies on Cu-catalyzed asymmetric additions of alkylzirconocene nucleophiles to racemic allylic halide electrophiles were conducted using a combination of isotopic labeling, NMR spectroscopy, kinetic modeling, structure-activity relationships, and new reaction development. Kinetic and dynamic NMR spectroscopic studies provided insight into the oligomeric Cu-ligand complexes, which evolve during the course of the reaction to become faster and more highly enantioselective. The Cu-counterions play a role in both selecting different pathways and in racemizing the starting material via formation of an allyl iodide intermediate. We quantify the rate of Cu-catalyzed allyl iodide isomerization and identify a series of conditions under which the formation and racemization of the allyl iodide occurs. We developed reaction conditions where racemic allylic phosphates are suitable substrates using new phosphoramidite ligand D. D also allows highly enantioselective addition to racemic seven-membered-ring allyl chlorides for the first time.1H and2H NMR spectroscopy experiments on reactions using allylic phosphates showed the importance of allyl chloride intermediates, which form either by the action of TMSCl or from an adventitious chloride source. Overall these studies support a mechanism where complex oligomeric catalysts both racemize the starting material and select one enantiomer for a highly enantioselective reaction. It is anticipated that this work will enable extension of copper-catalyzed asymmetric reactions and provide understanding on how to develop dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformations more broadly.

An enantioselective total synthesis of aspergillides A and B has been accomplished based on a unified strategy, wherein a hydroxy-directed, highly chemoselective olefin cross-metathesis and a diastereoselective intramolecular oxa-conjugate cyclization were employed to forge the 2,6-substituted tetrahydropyran substructure.

experimental part, p. 7492 - 7503 (2010/12/19)
An enantioselective total synthesis of aspergillides A and B has been accomplished on the basis of a unified synthetic strategy that exploits stereodivergent intramolecular oxa-conjugate cyclization and Yamaguchi macrolactonization.
