Enantioselective Hydrothiolation: Diverging Cyclopropenes through Ligand Control
Dong, Vy M.,Kuker, Erin L.,Lu, Alexander,Nie, Shaozhen
, p. 6176 - 6184 (2021/05/07)
In this article, we advance Rh-catalyzed hydrothiolation through the divergent reactivity of cyclopropenes. Cyclopropenes undergo hydrothiolation to provide cyclopropyl sulfides or allylic sulfides. The choice of bisphosphine ligand dictates whether the pathway involves ring-retention or ring-opening. Mechanistic studies reveal the origin for this switchable selectivity. Our results suggest the two pathways share a common cyclopropyl-Rh(III) intermediate. Electron-rich Josiphos ligands promote direct reductive elimination from this intermediate to afford cyclopropyl sulfides in high enantio- A nd diastereoselectivities. Alternatively, atropisomeric ligands (such as DTBM-BINAP) enable ring-opening from the cyclopropyl-Rh(III) intermediate to generate allylic sulfides with high enantio- A nd regiocontrol.
Synthesis of Quinolines via the Metal-free Visible-Light-Mediated Radical Azidation of Cyclopropenes
Smyrnov, Vladyslav,Muriel, Bastian,Waser, Jerome
, p. 5435 - 5439 (2021/07/21)
We report the synthesis of quinolines using cyclopropenes and an azidobenziodazolone (ABZ) hypervalent iodine reagent as an azide radical source under visible-light irradiation. Multisubstituted quinoline products were obtained in 34-81% yield. The reaction was most efficient for 3-trifluoromethylcyclopropenes, affording valuable 4-trifluoromethylquinolines. The transformation probably proceeds through the cyclization of an iminyl radical formed by the addition of the azide radical on the cyclopropene double bond, followed by ring-opening and fragmentation.

The generation of metal carbenoids via ring opening of cyclopropenes by transition metals offers a simple entry into highly reactive intermediates. Herein, we describe a diastereoselective intermolecular rhodium-catalyzed cyclopropanation of heterocycles and alkenes using cyclopropenes as carbene precursors with a low loading of a commercially available rhodium catalyst. The reported method is scalable and could be performed with catalyst loadings as low as 0.2 mol %, with no impact to the reaction yield or selectivity.

, p. 5978 - 5983 (2020/08/05)
A mild rhodium catalytic system has been developed to synthesize vinylcyclopropa[b]indolines through cyclopropanation of indoles with vinyl carbenoids generated from ring opening of cyclopropenes in situ. By employing a Rh-migration strategy, the products can be obtained with good to excellent E:Z ratios (≤99:1) and complete diastereoselectivity (≤99:1). This method is easy, has a low catalyst loading, and works for a broad range of functionalities.

, p. 12674 - 12679 (2019/08/07)
An efficient RhII-catalyzed synthesis of functionalized α-vinyl aldehydes with high E/Z stereoselectivity was developed. The reaction mediates the cyclopropanation of enaminones with vinyl carbenoids that are generated from cyclopropenes in situ to give the aminocyclopropane intermediates. Selective C?C bond cleavage of the cyclopropane intermediates leads to formation of α-vinyl aldehyde derivatives with high E/Z selectivity. This method proceeds at room temperature under very mild reaction conditions and works with a broad substrate scope.
Copper-Catalyzed Enantio- and Diastereoselective Addition of Silicon Nucleophiles to 3,3-Disubstituted Cyclopropenes
Zhang, Liangliang,Oestreich, Martin
, p. 14304 - 14307 (2019/11/13)
A highly stereocontrolled syn-addition of silicon nucleophiles across cyclopropenes with two different geminal substituents at C3 is reported. Diastereomeric ratios are excellent throughout (d.r.≥98:2) and enantiomeric excesses usually higher than 90 %, even reaching 99 %. This copper-catalyzed C?Si bond formation closes the gap of the direct synthesis of α-chiral cyclopropylsilanes.
Tandem Hydroalumination/Cu-Catalyzed Asymmetric Vinyl Metalation as a New Access to Enantioenriched Vinylcyclopropane Derivatives
Müller, Daniel S.,Werner, Veronika,Akyol, Sema,Schmalz, Hans-Günther,Marek, Ilan
, p. 3970 - 3973 (2017/08/14)
Herein, we report the first enantio- and diastereoselective addition of stereodefined vinyl organometallic reagents to cyclopropenes. The operationally simple tandem hydroalumination and copper-catalyzed vinylmetalation allows for the unique access of a diverse set of enantioenriched vinylcyclopropane derivatives.

, p. 11702 - 11705 (2017/09/07)
We report realization of the first enantioselective Cope-type hydroamination of oximes for asymmetric nitrone synthesis. The ligand promoted asymmetric cyclopropene "hydronitronylation" process employs a Cu-based catalytic system and readily available starting materials, operates under mild conditions and displays broad scope and exceptionally high enantio- and diastereocontrol. Preliminary mechanistic studies corroborate a CuI-catalytic profile featuring an olefin metalla-retro-Cope aminocupration process as the key C-N bond forming event. This conceptually novel reactivity enables the first example of highly enantioselective catalytic nitrone formation process and will likely spur further developments that may significantly expedite chiral nitrone synthesis.
Rapid access to cyclopentadiene derivatives through gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization of ynamides with cyclopropenes by preferential activation of alkenes over alkynes

supporting information, p. 3745 - 3748 (2017/04/03)
In this communication, gold-catalyzed intermolecular cycloisomerization of cyclopropenes and ynamides is investigated. The current transformation displayed an activation priority of double bonds over triple bonds by the cationic gold catalyst, giving the corresponding cyclopentadienes in good to excellent yields. Additionally, this protocol can be expanded to a one-pot two-step procedure for the synthesis of substituted cyclopentanones.
Rh(II)-Catalyzed [2,3]-Sigmatropic Rearrangement of Sulfur Ylides Derived from Cyclopropenes and Sulfides
Zhang, Hang,Wang, Bo,Yi, Heng,Zhang, Yan,Wang, Jianbo
, p. 3322 - 3325 (2015/07/15)
(Chemical Equation Presented) A new type of Rh2(OAc)4-catalyzed [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of sulfur ylides is reported. A series of cyclopropenes were successfully employed for [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement by a reaction with either allylic or propargylic sulfides. Under the optimized conditions, the reaction afforded the products in moderate to excellent yields. In these transformations, the vinyl metal carbenes generated in situ from the cyclopropenes were effectively trapped by sulfides, resulting in the formation of corresponding products upon [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements.
