The lithiation/borylation-protodeboronation of a homoallyl carbamate was applied to the synthesis of (+)-sertraline and (+)-indatraline. Due to the presence of the alkene, significant modifications of the methodology were required (use of 12-crown-4, TMSCl, H2O), or a solvent switch to CHCl3, to achieve high yields and high selectivities.

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.
Synthesis of 4(S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone by SN2 cuprate displacement of an activated chiral benzylic alcohol

Two routes for the preparation of 4(S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone are reported. The most efficient route generates a chiral benzylic alcohol by catalytic asymmetric oxazaborolidine reduction of a γ-ketoester that is subsequently activated and displaced in an SN2 manner with a higher order cuprate. Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts cyclization of the resulting t-butylester affords the title compound.
