The copper-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation has shown through many examples that it is a powerful means to generate stereogenic centers with mono β- and γ-substituted olefinic substrates. However, little has been reported about more substituted olefinic patterns, such as β-disubstituted allylic electrophiles. In this paper, we show that a simple procedure using easily accessible Grignard reagents and as low as 3 mol% of copper/ligand can promote high to nearly perfect enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) with very good γ-selectivities on a wide panel of aliphatic or aromatic β-disubstituted substrates.

Scope broadened: A previously developed asymmetric Cu-catalyzed allylic substitution can be applied to more substituted allylic patterns. Two classes of β-disubstituted substrates, cinnamyl derivatives and aliphatic endocyclic allylic chlorides, afford excellent regio- and enantioselectivities (see schemes; L* = phosphoramidite ligand).

The endocyclic N-substituted allylic sulfoximines 17-20 and 26 were synthesized from the corresponding cycloalkanones and the various (S)-5-(lithiomethyl)-S-phenylsulfoximines in enantiomerically pure form in yields of 60-70% in a process involving the isomerization of the intermediate vinylic sulfoximines. Desilylation of 26 gave the parent N-H sulfoximine 27 from which the N-sulfonylsulfoximines 28 and 29 were prepared. The X-ray crystal structure of 28 was determined. The allylic sulfoximines 17-20 and 26-29 did not racemize or rearrange thermally to the corresponding allylic sulfinamides. Reaction of the allylic sulfoximines 18, 28, and 29 with the organocuprate reagents 2/LiI, 35/LiI, and 47/LiI led with α-selectivities of 92:8 to 99:1 to the endocyclic alkenes 39 in good to high yields. Reaction of 17-20, 28, and 29 with the organocopper reagents 5/LiI, 30/LiI, 31/LiI, 32/LiI, 33/LiI, 34/LiI, and 37/LiI in the presence of BF3 resulted in the formation of the exocyclic alkenes 38, 41, 43, and 45, respectively, in good to high yields with γ-selectivities of 80:20 to 99:1. The sulfonimidoyl group imparts asymmetric induction to the substitution in the range of 27-90% ee. The (S)-sulfonimidoyl group leads to a preferential bond formation from the si side of the double bond. From the sulfoximines 18 and 26-29 the N-methylsulfoximine 18 and the N-tosylsulfoximine 28 showed the highest and lowest reactivity with the butylcopper reagent 32/LiI in the presence of BF3, respectively, while in the absence of BF3 only 29 reacted. The Lewis acid most likely serves to activate the N-methyl- and N-tosylsulfoximines or intermediates thereof through coordination at the sulfonimidoyl and sulfonyl group. Reaction of the sulfoximines 18 and 29 with pure Me3SiCH2Cu (34) revealed a strong rate acceleration by LiI and an even stronger one by Bu4NI. This points to the existence of a heteroleptic cuprate or a related compound as reactive species. In substitutions with the Yamamoto reagents RCu/MX/BF3, the halide is important and a reaction between RCu and BF3 does not have, at least in the case of allylic sulfoximines, to be invoked. In reactions of 17-20 besides the alkenes, the sulfinamide ent-4 was formed with an ee value of 97% in high yield with retention of configuration. The absolute configuration of the exocyclic alkenes 38, 41, and 45 was determined by ozonolysis to the corresponding cycloalkanones followed by their conversion to the corresponding lactones and/or CD measurement of the former.
Nuclear Synthons: Mesyltriflone as an Olefin Polyanion Equivalent

Mesyltriflone (CF3SO2CH2SO2CH3) is developed as a nuclear synthon reagent capable first of multiple constructions such as alkylations then of Ramberg-Baecklund elimination to a substituted olefin.The alkylations are clean and regiospecific, often amenable to one-pot operation, and in most cases the elimination is smooth.A variety of examples is presented to establish the scope of the method, and the mechanism and stereochemistry are discussed.
AN OLEFIN POLYANION EQUIVALENT: A NEW OLEFIN SYNTHESIS FROM TRIFLONES

α-Trifyl-dimethylsulfone (CF3SO2CH2SO2CH3) is a reagent which allows successive polyalkylation of the two carbons with regiocontrol.The polyalkylated trifyl-sulfone then undergoes a Ramberg-Baecklund reaction with loss of triflinate anion and extrusion of SO2 to form an olefin.In synthetic terms the net structural change is equivalent to regiospecific alkylation of an olefin polyanion, =C==C=.
