Asymmetric "clip-Cycle" Synthesis of Pyrrolidines and Spiropyrrolidines

The development of an asymmetric "clip-cycle"synthesis of 2,2- and 3,3-disubstituted pyrrolidines and spiropyrrolidines, which are increasingly important scaffolds in drug discovery programs, is reported. Cbz-protected bis-homoallylic amines were activate

Copper-Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of β-Homoprolines from N-Fluoro-sulfonamides

A new methodology for the carbonylative transformation of N-fluoro-sulfonamides into N-sulfonyl-β-homoproline esters has been described. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Cu(OTf)2, a range of β-homoproline derivatives were prepared in moderate to good yield. The reaction proceeds via the intramolecular cyclization and intermolecular carbonylation of a free carbon radical. Notably, this procedure offers the possibility to build potential functionalized bioactive molecules.

Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Aminotrifluoromethoxylation of Alkenes: Mechanistic Insight into the Effect of N-Protecting Groups

An efficient palladium-catalyzed regioselective 5-exo aminotrifluoromethoxylation of alkenes has been established herein, which provides a practical route towards the synthesis of OCF3-containing pyrrolidines. tert-Butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) as an amino protecting group plays a significant role in both the chemo- and regioselectivities. In addition, preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the amino protecting group of substrates and the counter anion of palladium catalyst play critical roles in reaction efficiency presumably due to an isomerization of alkyl- Pd(II) intermediates. Moreover, the asymmetric 5-exo aminotrifluoromethoxylation reaction has also been achieved by introducing a sterically bulky pyridinyl-oxazoline ligand.

A novel asymmetric 6-endo aminoacetoxylation of unactivated alkenes by palladium catalysis, which yields chiral β-acetoxylated piperidines with excellent chemo-, regio- and enantioselectivities under very mild reaction conditions, has been established herein by employing a new designed pyridine-oxazoline (Pyox) ligand. Importantly, introducing a sterically bulky group into the C-6 position of Pyox is crucial to enhance the reactivity of the aminoacetoxylation of alkenes.

A series of pyrrolizidine derivatives have been synthesized in good yield and excellent enantioselectivity. Deuterium-labeling experiments have revealed that the reaction proceeded through an anti-aminopalladation (anti-AP) pathway with high selectivity. The transition states for the anti-AP step have been calculated to account for the observed enantioselectivity.

A general synthesis of 1,2- and 1,3-cyclic ureas is accomplished by intramolecular allylic C-H amination employing Pd(TFA)2/bis-sulfoxide as a catalyst. By careful modification of substrates and catalyst, a variety of 1,2-cyclic ureas are accessible from not previously employed terminal olefins substituted in allylic or vinylic positions. Furthermore, MS4A is found to be an effective additive for the synthesis of 1,3-cyclic ureas in good yields and excellent diastereoselectivities.
