Bis{(Rp)-2-[(1S)-1-methoxyethyl]ferrocenyl arylphosphines (S,Rp)-9 (aryl=4-MeOC6H4 (9a), Ph (9b), 4- CF3C6Ha (9c), 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3 (9d)), which contain two planar chiral ferrocenyl moieties, were prepared via (Rp)-1-bromo-2-[(1S)-1-methoxyethyl]ferrocene (S,Rp)-8). Asymmetric hydrosilylation of linear 1,3-dienes such as deca-1,3-diene (10a) with trichlorosilane in the presence of a palladium catalyst coordinated with 9d gave allylic silanes of up to 93% ee.

The catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction is among the most useful reactions in organic synthesis. Despite the existence of many prominent reports, however, the late-stage, chemoselective, catalytic, asymmetric aldol reaction of multifunctional substrates is still difficult to achieve. Herein, we identified that in situ pre-conversion of carboxylic acids to siloxy esters facilitated the boron-catalyzed direct aldol reaction, leading to the development of carboxylic acid-selective, catalytic, asymmetric aldol reaction applicable to multifunctional substrates. Combining experimental and computational studies rationalized the reaction mechanism and led to the proposal of Si/B enediolates as the active species. The silyl ester formation facilitated both enolization and catalyst turnover by acidifying the α-proton of substrates and attenuating poisonous Lewis bases to the boron catalyst.

Sorting tags are oligomeric structures that can be used as protecting groups or chiral auxiliaries enabling solution-phase mixture syntheses of multiple tagged compounds in one pot and allowing for facile and predictable chromatographic separation of products at the end of synthetic sequences. Perfluorinated hydrocarbon and oligomeric ethylene glycol (OEG) derivatives are known classes of sorting tags. Herein we describe the preparation of OEGylated chiral oxazolidinones and their use in asymmetric solution-phase mixture aldol reactions. Through the use of such oxazolidinones based on tyrosine four different individually tagged aldol adducts were obtained as a mixture, chromatographically demixed, detagged, and it was shown that these processes gave the desired aldol products in good yield and enantioselectivity.
Bioreduction of α-Acetoxymethyl Enones: Proposal for an SN2′ Mechanism Catalyzed by Enereductase

(Z)-3-Acetoxymethyl-4-R-3-buten-2-ones (R=aryl, alkyl) and (Z)-3-methyl-4-R-3-buten-2-ones (R=aryl) were synthesized and submitted to reduction by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae producing the (R)- and (S)-4-R-3-methybutan-2-ones, respectively. This stereochemistry control strategy was applied in the syntheses of (R)- and (S)-Tropional with moderate to high enantiomeric excesses. Other (Z)-3-acyloxymethyl-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-ones showed similar behavior to the (Z)-3-acetoxymethyl counterpart, and the acylated Morita–Baylis–Hillman adduct 1-acetoxy-2-methylene-1-phenylbutan-3-one produced a mixture of products, with and without the acetoxy group, via three different reaction pathways. In addition to experiments employing whole cells, those in which isolated enereductases were used suggested that the main pathway through which the loss of the acetoxy group occurs during the biocatalytic cascade is an SN2′-type reaction, rather than formal hydrogen addition followed by acetic acid elimination. Finally, related ethyl enones were reduced enantioselectively by the yeast Candida albicans, producing both (R)- and (S)-reduction products, depending on the presence of the acetoxy group in the starting material.

A systematic examination of enolboration-aldolization of propanoic acid has led to an efficient synthesis of anti-β-hydroxy-α-methyl carboxylic acids in consistently high yields and diastereoselectivities by using B-bromodicyclohexylborane as the enolizat
MNBA-mediated β-lactone formation: Mechanistic studies and application for the asymmetric total synthesis of tetrahydrolipstatin
Shiina, Isamu,Umezaki, Yuma,Kuroda, Nobutaka,Iizumi, Takashi,Nagai, Shunsuke,Katoh, Takashi
, p. 4885 - 4901 (2012/07/30)
Various β-lactones were prepared from β-hydroxycarboxylic acids by intramolecular dehydration condensation using MNBA, an effective coupling reagent, along with a nucleophilic catalyst. The transition state that provides the desired 4-membered ring model system is disclosed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and the structural features of the transition form are discussed. This method was successfully applied to the asymmetric total synthesis of tetrahydrolipstatin (THL), an antiobestic drug used in clinical treatment to inhibit the activity of pancreatic lipase.

Schulze, Matthias
experimental part, p. 1461 - 1476 (2010/07/08)
2-Arylethylamine derivatives were synthesized using the Curtius reaction and with three different methods of preparing the acyl azide functional group. Carbamates derived from isocyanate were convenient protecting groups for alkylation of amines. Starting from benzaldehyde, amphetamine was prepared in three steps through an oxazolidin-2-one intermediate in 62% overall yield. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
