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.

Using a rhodium complex of a bisphosphine ligand (R)-SDP, β-branched simple enamides with a (Z)-configuration were hydrogenated to β-stereogenic amines in quantitative yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (88-96% ee).

The first dynamic kinetic asymmetric amination of alcohols via borrowing hydrogen methodology is presented. Under the cooperative catalysis by an iridium complex and a chiral phosphoric acid, α-branched alcohols that exist as a mixture of four isomers undergo racemization by two orthogonal mechanisms and are converted to diastereo- and enantiopure amines bearing adjacent stereocenters. The preparation of diastereo- and enantiopure 1,2-amino alcohols is also realized using this catalytic system.

A highly efficient and selective rearrangement reaction of bromohydrins to aldehydes mediated by CF3CO2ZnEt was described. The secondary and tertiary aldehydes were prepared under mild conditions in good to excellent yields (85-99%). The scope and limitations of this rearrangement process were also investigated.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A simple and highly efficient method for the rearrangement of bromohydrins mediated by Et2Zn to synthesize carbonyl compounds was described. Various β-bromo alcohols were treated with 0.6 equiv of Et2Zn to form a zinc complex in CH 2Cl2 at room temperature for 2 h, followed by 1,2-migration to give the corresponding carbonyl compounds. This remarkable and clean rearrangement is general for acyclic and cyclic bromohydrins, and a variety of ring-expansive and -contractive carbonyl compounds were obtained in good to excellent yields according to the feature of the starting bromohydrins. The functional group tolerance of organozinc reagents in this reaction will be useful in organic synthesis. The scope and limitations of this rearrangement process were also investigated.

A new procedure for one-carbon homologation of carbonyl compounds is described.The method is based on the rearrangement of β-oxido carbenoid which is generated via the ligand exchange reaction of the sulfinyl group of α-chloro β-hydroxy sulfoxide with tert-butyllithium.Addition of the carbanion of aryl 1-chloroalkyl sulfoxides to carbonyl compounds gave the adducts in good yields.The β-oxido carbenoid rearrangement of the adducts gave one-carbon homologated carbonyl compounds having an α-alkyl substituent.A similar reaction of the adducts derived from carbonyl compounds with chloromethyl p-tolyl sulfoxide yielded a procedure for a methylene insertion.The stereochemistry of the β-oxido carbenoid rearrangenment is also discussed.

Addition of the carbanion of 1-chloroalkyl p-tolyl sulfoxides to carbonyl compound gave the adducts, which were treated with a base followed by t-butyllithium to afford one-carbon homologated carbonyl compounds having an alkyl group at the α-position, via the β-oxido carbenoids, in moderate to good yields.
