Helically chiral poly(quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)s bearing 4-(dipropylamino)pyridin-3-yl pendants at the 5-position of the quinoxaline ring (PQXdpap) exhibited high catalytic activities and moderate to high selectivities (up to s = 87) in the acylative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols. The solvent-dependent helical chirality switching of PQXdpap between pure toluene and a 1:1 mixture of toluene and 1,1,2-trichloroethane enabled the preparation of either compound of a pair of enantiomerically pure alcohols (>99% ee) from a single catalyst.

Methyl- A nd phenyllithium aggregates with enantiopure anisyl fencholate units form after reaction of organolithium reagent with (+)-anisyl fenchol in hydrocarbon and some ethereal solvents. These carbanionic aggregates are characterized by X-ray crystal analyses and exhibit both 3:1 stoichiometry and distorted cubic Li4O3C1 cores, in which three lithium ions coordinate the carbanion (i.e., methylide or phenylide). These three lithium ions define a Lewis acidic surface (Li3), binding the carbanion and expanding with the steric demand of the carbanion (i.e., from Me: 2.62 ?2, over n-Bu: 2.65 ?2 (previous work) to Ph: 2.79 ?2). Methylation and phenylation reactions of various prochiral aldehydes employing these methyllithium and phenyllithium aggregates yield alcohols with up to 44% ee. To rationalize the formation of the mixed (carb-)anionic aggregates, aggregate formation energies, describing co-condensations of RLi (R = Me, Ph, n-Bu) and lithium fencholates, are computed for the 3:1 and 2:2 stoichiometries. These computed aggregate formation energies point to preferences for 3:1 over 2:2 aggregates, as it is also apparent from experimental aggregate formations, confirmed by X-ray crystal analyses. In close analogy to the X-ray crystal structures, the computed Li3 surfaces increase with increasing steric demand of the carbanions. The chiral, mixed (carb-)anionic RLi-fencholate aggregates hence adapt to different carbanion sized and arise not only with small (Me) or primary carbanions (n-Bu) but even with the larger secondary phenyl anion.
Kinetic resolution of secondary carbinols by a chiral N,N-4-dimethylaminopyridine derivative containing a 1,1′-binaphthyl unit: Hydrogen bonding affects catalytic activity and enantioselectivity

We developed an acylative kinetic resolution of secondary carbinols using a binaphthyl-based N,N-4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) derivative 1d with tert-Alcohol substituents. The reaction proceeded with a wide range of carbinols with moderate to high selectivity (s) (up to s = 79.5). Kinetic studies revealed that catalyst 1d was more catalytically active than the corresponding bis-methyl ether 1d′ or DMAP. Hydrogen bonding between tert-Alcohols of the catalyst and secondary carbinols was responsible for the enhanced reaction rate and high enantioselectivity.
