Asymmetric ammonium ylid rearrangements: the effect of nitrogen asymmetry
Sweeney,Tavassoli, Ali,Workman, James A.
, p. 11506 - 11512 (2006)
[2,3]-Sigmatropic rearrangements of allylic ammonium ylids derived from glycinoylcamphorsultams are highly selective in terms of relative and absolute stereocontrol only when acyclic alkenes are present. When chiral esters of ylids derived from N-methyltetrahydropyridine ('NMTP') undergo rearrangement, the reactions show exclusive cis-stereoselectivity but the products are obtained with virtually no absolute stereocontrol. These observations support the notion that sigmatropic rearrangements of N-chiral ammonium ylids are controlled by nitrogen stereogenicity.

α-Chiral alkyl primary amines are virtually universal synthetic precursors for all other α-chiral N-containing compounds ubiquitous in biological, pharmaceutical, and material sciences. The enantioselective amination of common alkyl halides with ammonia is appealing for potential rapid access to α-chiral primary amines, but has hitherto remained rare due to the multifaceted difficulties in using ammonia and the underdeveloped C(sp3)-N coupling. Here we demonstrate sulfoximines as excellent ammonia surrogates for enantioconvergent radical C-N coupling with diverse racemic secondary alkyl halides (>60 examples) by copper catalysis under mild thermal conditions. The reaction efficiently provides highly enantioenrichedN-alkyl sulfoximines (up to 99% yield and >99% ee) featuring secondary benzyl, propargyl, α-carbonyl alkyl, and α-cyano alkyl stereocenters. In addition, we have converted the masked α-chiral primary amines thus obtained to various synthetic building blocks, ligands, and drugs possessing α-chiral N-functionalities, such as carbamate, carboxylamide, secondary and tertiary amine, and oxazoline, with commonly seen α-substitution patterns. These results shine light on the potential of enantioconvergent radical cross-coupling as a general chiral carbon-heteroatom formation strategy.
Stereoselective synthesis of oxazolidin-2-ones via an asymmetric aldol/curtius reaction: Concise total synthesis of (?)-cytoxazone

Herein, we are reporting an efficient approach toward the synthesis of 4,5-disubstituted oxazolidin-2-one scaffolds. The developed approach is based on a combination of an asymmetric aldol and a modified Curtius protocol, which uses an effective intramolecular ring closure to rapidly access a range of oxazolidin-2-one building blocks. This strategy also permits a straightforward and concise asymmetric total synthesis of (?)-cytoxazone. Consisting of three steps, this is one of the shortest syntheses reported to date. Ultimately, this convenient platform would provide a promising method for the early phases of drug discovery.
A new type of L-Tertiary leucine-derived ligand: Synthesis and application in Cu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric Henry reactions
Cai, Zedong,Lan, Ting,Ma, Pengfei,Zhang, Jingfang,Yang, Qingqing,He, Wei
, (2019/08/08)
A new series of Schiff bases derived from amino acids were developed as chiral ligands for Cu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric Henry reactions. The optimum ligand 7d exhibited outstanding catalytic efficiency in the Cu(II)-catalyzed asymmetric Henry additions of four nitroalkanes to different kinds of aldehydes to produce 76 desired adducts in high yields (up to 96%) with excellent enantioselectivities, up to 99% enantiomeric excess (ee).

Oxidative alkene difunctionalization reactions are important in synthetic organic chemistry because they can install polar functional groups onto simple non-polar alkene moieties. Many of the most common methods for these reactions rely upon the reactivity of pre-oxidized electrophilic heteroatom donors that can often be unstable, explosive, or difficult to handle. Herein, we describe a method for alkene oxyamination and diamination that utilizes simple carbamate and urea groups as nucleophilic heteroatom donors. This method uses a tandem copper–photoredox catalyst system that is operationally convenient. The identity of the terminal oxidant is critical in these studies. Ag(I) salts proved to be unique in their ability to turn over the copper cocatalyst without deleteriously impacting the reactivity of the organoradical intermediates.

Secondary 1,3,2-diazaphospholenes have a polarized P?H bond and are emerging as molecular hydrides. Herein, a class of chiral, conformationally restricted methoxy-1,3,2-diazaphospholene catalysts is reported. We demonstrate their catalytic potential in asymmetric 1,4-reductions of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl derivatives, including enones, acyl pyrroles, and amides, which proceeded in enantioselectivities of up to 95.5:4.5 e.r.
Kinetic resolution of racemic amino alcohols through intermolecular acetalization catalyzed by a chiral Bronsted acid
Yamanaka, Takuto,Kondoh, Azusa,Terada, Masahiro
, p. 1048 - 1051 (2015/02/19)
The kinetic resolution of racemic secondary alcohols is a fundamental method for obtaining enantiomerically enriched alcohols. Compared to esterification, which is a well-established method for this purpose, kinetic resolution through enantioselective intermolecular acetalization has not been reported to date despite the fact that the formation of acetals is widely adopted to protect hydroxy groups. By taking advantage of the thermodynamics of acetalization by the addition of alcohols to enol ethers, a highly efficient kinetic resolution of racemic amino alcohols was achieved for the first time and in a practical manner using a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst.
Enantioselective synthesis of dihydro-1 H -benzindoles
Silveira, Gustavo P.,Marino, Joseph P.
, p. 3379 - 3383 (2013/06/26)
The first examples of dihydro-1H-benzindoles by enantioselective γ-lactamization reaction of naphthyl sulfilimines with trichloroacetyl chloride in the presence of ZnCu as catalyst (≥98:2 er and 65-80% yields) are described. Products are obtained by [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of the azasulfonium enolate or followed by a second allylic rearrangement that transfers chirality. The absolute stereochemistry was confirmed by X-ray crystallography, which provides support for the mechanisms proposed.

In this study, we have expanded the applicability of the pre-established generalized preparation protocol to MIPs with a neutral template. The (4S,5R)-4-methyl-5-phenyl-2-oxazolidinone MIP layer was formed inside a pretreated and silanized fused silica capillary, and its chiral separation performance was examined. Optimization of chiral separation was also carried out. This is the very first report of somewhat successful application of the generalized preparation protocol to a MIP with a genuine neutral template. Copyright
A ring-closing metathesis-based approach to the synthesis of (+)-tetrabenazine
Johannes, Manuel,Altmann, Karl-Heinz
supporting information; experimental part, p. 3752 - 3755 (2012/09/07)
A modular stereoselective synthesis of the vesicular monoamine transport inhibitors (+)-tetrabenazine ((+)-1) and (+)-α-dihydrotetrabenazine ((+)-2) has been developed. The approach is based on amine 4 and acid 5 as the key building blocks, which were elaborated into macrolactam 3 by amide coupling and a subsequent highly E-selective RCM reaction. Macrolactam 3 could be converted into tetrabenazine in three known steps.
