Catalytic asymmetric [4+2]-cycloaddition of dienes with aldehydes

Despite its significant potential, a general catalytic asymmetric [4+2]-cycloaddition of simple and electronically unbiased dienes with any type of aldehyde has long been unknown. Previously developed methodologies invariably require activated, electronically engineered substrates. We now provide a general solution to this problem. We show that highly acidic and confined imidodiphosphorimidates (IDPis) are extremely effective Br?nsted acid catalysts of the hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of a wide variety of aldehydes and dienes to give enantiomerically enriched dihydropyrans. Excellent stereoselectivity is generally observed and a variety of scents and natural products can be easily accessed.

A convenient approach for the synthesis of 1,3,5-trioxanes under solvent-free conditions at room temperature

A series of environmentally benign bis-SO3H-functionalized Bronsted acidic ionic liquids were synthesized by using aliphatic polyamines and 1,3-propanesultone as the source chemicals. These ionic liquids acted as efficient inexpensive and recyclable catalysts for cyclotrimerization of aliphatic aldehydes at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. The reactions proceeded smoothly with good to excellent isolated yields (66.9-97.6 %=) and were generally complete in 1.5 h when the amount of ionic liquids was 0.1 mol%. The ionic liquids could be recovered readily and reused five times without any significant loss in their catalytic activity. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Novel acidic ionic liquids as efficient and recyclable catalysts for the cyclotrimerization of aldehydes

A mild, efficient, and ecofriendly procedure for cyclotrimerization of aldehydes was realized by using a series of novel Brnsted acidic ionic liquids (BAILs) consisting of double-SO3H groups in cations as catalysts. Good conversion of aldehydes and selectivity of trialkyl-1,3,5-trioxanes were achieved by using 1mol% of BAILs. In addition, the catalyst system could be recycled and reused at least eight times without apparent loss of activity. Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
