Conformationally restricted perhydrobenzoxazines have been demonstrated to be good chiral ligands for one-pot asymmetric ethylation/epoxidation, and the unprecedented arylation/epoxidation of trisubstituted α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The scope of the reaction has been studied and a wide set of substrates with allylic strain of different nature has been explored, obtaining good or total diastereoselectivities in all cases. The enantiocontrol was good or high for the ethylation/epoxidation reaction, whereas it remained at moderate or good levels for the arylation/epoxidation. The reaction is general for trisubstituted enals, and alkylic and aromatic substituents are tolerated at both the α- and β-position of the unsaturated aldehyde; however, disubstituted enals remain challenging substrates. When the one-pot and two-pot protocols were compared, no significant differences concerning the stereocontrol were found, so the advantages of the one-pot procedure are clear. Copyright

Asymmetric allylic substitution reactions between 1,3-diphenyl-2-propenyl acetate and various hetero nucleophiles were efficiently carried out using the catalysts derived from the monodentate phosphine ligands, (1R, 2S, 5R, 6S)-2,6-dimethyl-9-phenyl-9-phosphabicyclo[3.3.1] nonane and its enantiomer ((-)- and (+)-9-PBNs), and palladium (0).
PaaSicats: Powerful catalysts for asymmetric epoxidation of enones. Novel syntheses of α-arylpropanoic acids including (S)-fenoprofen

Application of the recently developed silica-adsorbed polyleucine catalysts to the enantioselective epoxidation of two enones is reported. Treatment of these epoxides with trimethylaluminium in moist dichloromethane generates the α-hydroxy-β-methylketones, with inversion of configuration. Diastereoselective reduction of the ketone moiety followed by oxidative cleavage generates α-arylpropanoic acids.
Synthesis of novel C2-symmetric ligands based on (R,R)- and (S,S)- diphenyl-1,3-propanediol

A range of novel C2-symmetric dioxygen and dinitrogen ligands can readily be obtained through the interconversion of the parent 1,3-diphenyl- 1,3-propanediol enantiomers which are, in turn, accessed in good yields via a Sharpless asymmetric epoxidative resolution.
