Asymmetric cyclization using Rh-complexes has been applied to the synthesis of 4,9-dimethylspiro[4.4]nonane-2,7-diones. The spiro[4.4]nonane skeleton bearing three consecutive chiral carbons could be stepwisely constructed from an identical starting material by the combination of a cationic Rh[(S)-BINAP]ClO4 and a neutral RhCl(PPh3)3. The relationship between the stereochemistry of the spirodiketones and the Rh-complex was also discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
Application of Rh-catalyzed cyclization to the formation of a chiral quaternary carbon

Rh-Catalyzed cyclization was applied to the formation of a chiral quaternary carbon. It has become clear that the Rh-complex can discriminate between isopropenyl and 2-isopentenyl (or isopentyl) substituents, and the cyclization afforded 3,3,4-trisubstituted cyclopentanones with a chiral quaternary carbon in a stereoselective manner. The cyclization of 4-pentenals 6a, b by an achiral neutral Rh(PPh3)3Cl afforded 3,3,4-cis-trisubstituted cyclopentanones (±)-7a, b in 86-96%, and the cyclization by a cationic Rh[(R)-BINAP]ClO4 afforded 3,3,4-trans-trisubstituted cyelopentanones (-)-8a, b of 82-86% ee in 88-98% yields. The mechanism of stereoselection by Rh-complexes is also discussed.
