Design and synthesis of binuclear Co-salen catalysts for the hydrolytic kinetic resolution of epoxides

Three binuclear Co(III)-salen complexes have been synthesized based on a series of hydrophilic cyclic frameworks with different ring sizes. The catalytic performance of Co-salen complexes have further been evaluated in the hydrolytic kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides. And kinetic studies reveal that the binuclear Co-salen catalysts show a higher reactivity and better enantioselectivity in comparison to monometallic reference complex, indicating the two Co-salen units on the cyclic framework may work in a cooperative manner. Specifically, Co3, with the most flexible cyclic framework exhibits the best catalytic performance among the three catalysts, due to the efficient cooperative interactions between two cobalt centers.

Asymmetric hydrolytic kinetic resolution with recyclable polymeric Co(iii)-salen complexes: A practical strategy in the preparation of (S)-metoprolol, (S)-toliprolol and (S)-alprenolol: Computational rationale for enantioselectivity

A series of chiral polymeric Co(iii)-salen complexes based on a number of achiral and chiral linkers were synthesized and their catalytic performances were assessed in the asymmetric hydrolytic kinetic resolution of terminal epoxides. The effects of the linker were judiciously studied and it was found that in the case of the chiral BINOL-based polymeric salen complex 1, there was an enrichment in catalyst reactivity and enantioselectivity of the unreacted epoxide, particularly in the case of short as well as long chain aliphatic epoxides. Good isolated yields of the unreacted epoxide (up to 46% compared to 50% theoretical yield) along with high enantioselectivity (up to 99%) were obtained in most cases using catalyst 1. Further studies showed that catalyst 1 could retain its catalytic activity for six cycles under the present reaction conditions without any significant loss in activity or enantioselectivity. To show the practical applicability of the above synthesized catalyst we have synthesised some potent chiral β-blockers in moderate yield and high enantioselectivity using complex 1. The DFT (M06-L/6-31+G??//ONIOM(B3LYP/6-31G?:STO-3G)) calculations revealed that the chiral BINOL linker influences the enantioselectivity achieved with Co(iii)-salen complexes. Further, the transition state calculations show that the R-BINOL linker with the (S,S)-Co(iii)-salen complex is energetically preferred over the corresponding S-BINOL linker with the (S,S)-Co(iii)-salen complex for the HKR of 1,2-epoxyhexane. The role of non-covalent C-H?π interactions and steric effects has been discussed to control the HKR reaction of 1,2-epoxyhexane.

Asymmetric aminolytic kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides using recyclable chiral polymeric Co(III)-salen complexes: A protocol for total utilization of racemic epoxide in the synthesis of (R)-naftopidil and (S)-propranolol

Chiral polymeric Co(III) salen complexes with chiral ((R)/(S)-BINOL, diethyl tartrate) and achiral (piperazine and trigol) linkers with varying stereogenic centers were synthesized for the first time and used as catalysts for aminolytic kinetic resolution (AKR) of a variety of terminal epoxides and glycidyl ethers to get enantio-pure epoxides (ee, 99%) and N-protected β-amino alcohols (ee, 99%) with quantitative yield in 16 h at RT under optimized reaction conditions. This protocol was also used for the synthesis of two enantiomerically pure drug molecules (R)-Naftopidil (α1- blocker) and (S)-Propranolol (β-blocker) as a key step via AKR of single racemic naphthylglycidyl ether with Boc-protected isoproylamine with 100% epoxide utilization at 1 g level. The catalyst 1 was successfully recycled for a number of times.

Synthesis of enantiopure β-amino alcohols via AKR/ARO of epoxides using recyclable macrocyclic Cr(III) salen complexes

A series of chiral macrocyclic Cr(III) salen complexes 1-8 were synthesized and characterized. These complexes were found to be highly active, regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective catalysts in aminolytic kinetic resolution (AKR) of racemic trans-epoxides as well as asymmetric ring opening (ARO) of prochiral meso-epoxides with various anilines as nucleophiles at room temperature in 18-24 h. Excellent yields (>99% with respect to the nucleophile) with high enantioselectivity (ee, >99%) of chiral anti-β-amino alcohols was achieved with concomitant recovery of corresponding epoxides in high ee (up to >99%). The complex 1 also catalyzed the ARO of meso-epoxides to provide corresponding syn-β-amino alcohols in high yield (99%) and ee (up to 91%). Due to built-in basic sites in the catalyst, no external base (as an additive) was required to promote AKR and ARO reactions. The catalyst 1 was conveniently recycled several times with retention of its performance. The AKR of trans-stilbene oxide with aniline was successfully demonstrated at relatively higher scale (10 mmol) using the catalyst 1.
