Rh/DuanPhos-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of β-Acetylamino Vinylsulfides: An Approach to Chiral β-Acetylamino Sulfides

Rh/DuanPhos-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging β-acetylamino vinylsulfides has been developed, affording chiral β-acetylamino sulfides with high yields and excellent ee's (up to 99% ee). This novel methodology provides an efficient and concise synthetic route to chiral β-acetylamino sulfides. The potential utility of this protocol in the synthesis of Apremilast has also been disclosed.

SYNTHESIS AND CONFORMATIONAL ANALYSIS OF 2-METHYLTHIO DERIVATIVES OF 1-(2-THIENYL)ETHANOL AND THEIR O-METHYL DERIVATIVES

The synthesis and conformational analysis of the title compounds are reported.The conformational properties of the 2-thienyl derivatives, deduced from 1H-nmr and ir data, are compared with those for 2-furyl analogs and the results have been interpreted taking into account the stronger (OH...Ring) intramolecular association in the 2-furyl derivatives.
