Fine tuning of the biaryl and amino moieties of Feringa's phosphoramidite ligands yields structurally simpler, yet more efficient and selective, ligands for asymmetric hydrovinylation of vinylarenes and acylic 1,3-dienes. The enantioselectivities and yields observed in the formation of the 3-arylbutenes are among the highest for all asymmetric catalytic processes reported to date for the synthesis of intermediates for the widely used antiinflammatory 2-arylpropionic acids including naproxen, ibuprofen, fenoprofen, and flurbiprofen.

Through a systematic examination of ligand and counterion effects, new protocols for a nearly quantitative and highly selective codimerization of ethylene and various functionalized vinylarenes have been discovered. In a typical reaction, 4-bromostyrene and ethylene undergo codimerization in the presence of 0.0035 equiv each of [(allyl)NiBr]2, triphenylphosphine, and AgOTf in CH2Cl2 at -56 °C to give 3-(4-bromophenyl) -1-butene in >98% yield and selectivity. Corresponding reactions with [(allyl)PdX]2 are much less efficient and less selective and may require further optimization before a viable system can be identified. Another useful protocol that gives comparable yield and selectivity involves the use of a single-component catalyst prepared from allyl 2-diphenylphosphinobenzoate, Ni(COD)2, and (C6F5)3B. Recognition of a synergistic relationship between a chiral hemilabile ligand (for example, (R)-2-methoxy-2′-diphenylphosphino-1,1′-binaphthyl, MOP) and a highly dissociated counteranion (BARF or SbF6) in an enantioselective version of the Ni-catalyzed reaction raises the prospects of developing a practical route for the synthesis of 3-arylbutenes. Several pharmaceutically relevant compounds, including widely used 2-arylpropionic acids, can be synthesized from these key intermediates. This reaction appears to be quite general. Synthesis of several new 2-diphenylphosphino-1,1-binaphthyl derivatives, prepared to probe the effect of hemilabile coordination on the efficiency and selectivity of the reaction, are also described.

The hydrovinylation of arylethylenes catalyzed by [Ni(MeCN)6][BF4]2/AlEt2Cl/PPh3 was modulated to obtain 3-aryl-1-butenes in high yields and selectivities. A wide variety of arylethylenes containing electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups and Lewis basic group, can be hydrovinylated at room temperature and under mild conditions by changing the relative ratios of the three-component catalyst. Similar activities and selectivities were observed for o-, m- and p-substituted styrenes. Also, the hydrovinylation of olefins with substituents in the vinyl fragment, such as α-methylstyrene and indene, can be accomplished. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
