Homochiral bifunctional L-prolinamide- and L-bis-prolinamide-catalyzed asymmetric aldol reactions performed in wet solvent-free conditions

In this study, the novel bifunctional homochiral thiourea-L-prolinamides 1–4, tertiary amino-L-prolinamide 5, and bis-L-prolinamides 6 and 7 were prepared from enantiomerically pure (11R,12R)-11,12-diamino-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene 8 and (11S,12S

Ultrasonication-Assisted Synthesis of a d-Glucosamine-Based β-CD Inclusion Complex and Its Application as an Aqueous Heterogeneous Organocatalytic System

For the first time, an inclusion complex has been crafted between a carbohydrate-based molecule and a β-cyclodextrin (CD) hydrophobic cavity for asymmetric catalytic applications. This novel d-glucosamine-based inclusion compound has been synthesized in h

Design and preparation of a novel prolinamide-based organocatalyst for the solvent-free asymmetric aldol reaction

The preparation of four novel organocatalysts as highly diastereo and enantioselective catalysts for the solvent-free asymmetric aldol reaction was described. These organocatalysts were synthesized in eight steps applying simple and commercially available starting materials. The best results were obtained for the proline-derived catalyst, providing access to the desired adducts in up to 95% yield, 1:19 syn/anti and 98% e.e. Moreover, even sterically bulky aldehydes and substituted cyclohexanones were well tolerated. DFT calculations and control experiments indicated that several hydrogen bonding interactions between the aldehyde and the enamine intermediate are responsible for the stereoselective chiral induction process and that the trifluoroacetate counter-anion is crucial for the attainment of higher stereoselectivities.

L-proline/cholesterol and diosgenin based thiourea cooperative system for the direct asymmetric aldol reaction in the presence of water

A series of cholesterol and based hydrophobic urea and thiourea compounds were synthesized and successfully used as a cocatalyst for L-proline catalyzed aldol reactions in the presence of water. The anticonfigured products were obtained with good yields (up to 94%), high diastereoselectivities (up to 95:5), and high enantiomeric excesses (up to 93% ee). The successful results for catalytic efficiency of L-proline in the presence of water reveal the importance of the hydrophobic nature of cholesterol and diosgenin parts of thiourea on the reactivity and selectivity in the presence of water.

Synthesis of a new chiral organocatalyst derived from (S)-proline containing a 1,2,4-triazolyl moiety and its application in the asymmetric aldol reaction. Importance of one molecule of water generated in situ

A simple and efficient preparation of a novel chiral derivative of (S)-proline containing a 1,2,4-triazolyl moiety is described. The high-yielding synthetic protocol includes the use of microwave irradiation to afford new chiral pyrrolidine derivatives in

New prolinamides with isosteviol skeleton as efficient organocatalysts for the direct asymmetric aldol reaction

Abstract: In this work, two new prolinamides with isosteviol skeleton were synthesized and used as chiral catalysts for the asymmetric aldol reaction. Solvent effects, catalyst loading, substrate scope and the influence of water on the reaction were inves

Combining prolinamides with 2-pyrrolidinone: Novel organocatalysts for the asymmetric aldol reaction

Peptides and especially prolinamides have been identified as excellent organocatalysts for the aldol reaction. The combination of prolinamides with derivatives bearing the 2-pyrrolidinone scaffold, deriving from pyroglutamic acid, led to the identification of novel organocatalysts for the intermolecular asymmetric aldol reaction. The new hybrids were tested both in organic and aqueous media. Among the compounds tested, 22 afforded the best results in petroleum ether, while 25 afforded the products in brine in high yields and selectivities. Then, various ketones and aldehydes were utilized and the products of the aldol reaction were obtained in high yields (up to 100%) with excellent diastereo- (up to 97:3 dr) and enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).

Proline dipeptides containing fluorine moieties as oganocatalysts for the asymmetric aldol reaction

A series of dipeptide analogues consisting of proline, phenylalanine and aniline- or phenol-fluorine derivatives were synthesized. Their catalytic ability was evaluated in the intermolecular asymmetric aldol reaction, both in organic and aqueous media. Aniline-fluorine derivatives proved to be superior and the best results were obtained, when 2-CF3 aniline was employed. A diverse substrate scope consisting of both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes, as well as different ketones was demonstrated, where aromatic aldehydes afforded products in high yields (up to 100%) with excellent diastereo- (up to 95:5) and enantioselectivities (up to 97%), whereas the aliphatic aldehydes afforded also excellent selectivities, but relatively low yield. A simple addition of fluorine to a dipeptide analogue affords organocatalysts with new interesting properties that can catalyze the aldol reaction more efficiently.

Preparation of prolinamide with adamantane for aldol reaction catalysis in brine and separation using a poly(AN-MA-β-CD) nanofibrous film via host-guest interaction

Prolinamides with double-H potential were prepared and employed as organocatalysts in asymmetric aldol reactions. The catalyst with adamantane showed improved catalytic activity, which was further enhanced by using brine as the solvent. A series of aldol

Enantioselective Aldol Reactions in Water by a Proline-Derived Cryptand and Fixation of CO2 by Its Exocyclic Co(II) Complex

The secondary amine donors present in the bridges of a laterally nonsymmetric oxa-aza cryptand have been derivatized with l-proline to obtain the chiral cryptand L. The cryptand L efficiently catalyzed aldol reactions in water with up to 75% ee. On reacting with Co(II) perchlorate in the presence of KSCN, L readily formed the trinuclear complex {[Co3(L)2(NCS)6]·(15CH3CN)(5acetone)(6H2O)} (1). The complex 1 in combination with the cocatalyst tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) formed an efficient catalytic system in the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO2 and epoxides at room temperature and atmospheric pressure.
