A series of α-sulfinyl phosphonium ylides have been obtained in the reaction of phosphonium mono- and diylides with sulfinic acid esters. The use of (-)-(S)-menthyl p-toluenesulfinate in this reaction afforded the corresponding (S)-((p-tolylsulfinyl)methyl)triphenylphosphonium ylide. The Wittig reaction of these ylides with saturated and unsaturated aldehydes resulted in the formation of racemic and optically active (+)-(R)-vinyl and dienyl sulfoxides with the E-geometry. The synthesis of (+)-(R)-((p- tolylsulfinyl)methyl)triphenylphosphonium iodide as a precursor of the optically active ylide has also been described.
Asymmetric Induction in the Michael Reaction by Means of Chiral Phase-transfer Catalysts derived from Cinchona and Ephedra Alkaloids
Colonna, Stefano,Re, Alberto,Wynberg, Hans
, p. 547 - 552 (2007/10/02)
Asymmetric induction in the Michael reaction has been achieved using alkaloidonium salts in a two-phase system with optical yields of up to 36 and 26percent in the addition to αβ-unsaturated ketones of thiols and nitroalkanes respectively.The presence of a hydroxy-group β to the 'onium function is essential to achieve substantial asymmetric syntheses.
