Usage

Preparation

Different sources of media describe the Preparation of 1671-76-7 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. To a solution of N-methoxy-N-methyl-2-pyridyl urethane (364.4 mg, 2 mmol) in THF (6 mL), p-methoxyphenylmagnesium bromide (0.25 m in THF, 8 mL, 2 mmol) was added dropwise over a period of 10 min at 0 °C under nitrogen atmosphere. Stirring was maintained for a further 5 min and then n-butyllithium (1.60 m in hexane, 1.5 mL, 2.4 mmol) was added directly to the mixture (one-pot process). The reaction mixture was stirred for 0.5 h, while warming to room temperature, and was then quenched with 1 n HCl (5 mL). After evaporation of the THF, the concentrated mixture was poured into 1 n HCl (30 mL) and the aqueous phase was extracted with dichloromethane (3*20 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to dryness in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (EtOAc/n-hexane, 1:4) to give 369.1 mg (96%) of p-methoxyvalerophenone.

Combined Theoretical and Experimental Studies Unravel Multiple Pathways to Convergent Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Enamides

We present a highly efficient convergent asymmetric hydrogenation of E/Z mixtures of enamides catalyzed by N,P-iridium complexes supported by mechanistic studies. It was found that reduction of the olefinic isomers (E and Z geometries) produces chiral amides with the same absolute configuration (enantioconvergent hydrogenation). This allowed the hydrogenation of a wide range of E/Z mixtures of trisubstituted enamides with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). A detailed mechanistic study using deuterium labeling and kinetic experiments revealed two different pathways for the observed enantioconvergence. For α-aryl enamides, fast isomerization of the double bond takes place, and the overall process results in kinetic resolution of the two isomers. For α-alkyl enamides, no double bond isomerization is detected, and competition experiments suggested that substrate chelation is responsible for the enantioconvergent stereochemical outcome. DFT calculations were performed to predict the correct absolute configuration of the products and strengthen the proposed mechanism of the iridium-catalyzed isomerization pathway.
