An improved generation of chiral cationic iridium catalysts for the asymmetric isomerization of primary allylic alcohols is disclosed. The design of these air-stable complexes relied on the preliminary mechanistic information available, and on Charton analyses using two preceding generations of iridium catalysts developed for this highly challenging transformation. Sterically unbiased chiral aldehydes that were not accessible previously have been obtained with high levels of enantioselectivity, thus validating the initial hypothesis regarding the selected ligand-design elements. A rationale for the high enantioselectivities achieved in most cases is also presented. Achieving enantioselectivity: An improved generation of chiral cationic iridium catalysts for the asymmetric isomerization of primary allylic alcohols is disclosed. The design of these air-stable complexes relies on preliminary mechanistic information and on Charton analyses using two preceding generations of iridium catalysts developed for this highly challenging transformation (see figure).

A new series of modular chiral selenium-containing oxazolines has been synthesized from inexpensive and commercially available l-serine and l-aspartic acid. These new compounds were evaluated as chiral ligands in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic

This work explores the potential of iridium complexes of the N-heterocyclic carbene oxazoline ligands 1 in asymmetric hydrogenations of arylalkenes. The accessible carbene precursors, imidazolium salts 2, and robust iridium complexes 5 facilitated a disco

Three different syntheses of the phosphine oxazoline systems 1 are presented. Two of these approaches are divergent routes designed to involve an advanced intermediate that can be transformed into several different end-products. The third is a shorter route specifically designed to facilitate preparations of these systems on a larger scale using minimal functional group protection. Overall, eight different phosphine oxazolines were prepared. These were screened in several palladium-mediated allylation reactions. They proved to be most useful for asymmetric alkylation of 3-acetoxy-1,3-diphenylpropene and less suitable/effective for the more challenging substrates (a pentenyl derivative and a cyclohexenyl system). X-ray crystallographic analysis of the complex [(η3-PhCHCHCHPh)Pd(1a)][PF6] led to the conclusion that the origins of asymmetric induction in these systems might be indirectly attributed to interaction of the oxazoline-phenyl substituent with the palladium and with an allyl-phenyl substituent. Finally, data is presented for allylation of a silylenolate of an N-acyl oxazolidinone; excellent enantioselectivities and yields were obtained.
