Catalytic enantioselective reduction of β,β-disubstituted vinyl phenyl sulfones by using bisphosphine monoxide ligands

(Chemical Equation Presented) Synthesis of chiral sulfones: A copper-phosphine complex efficiently provided optically active alkyl phenyl sulfones by hydrosilylation at room temperature. The reduction of β,β-disubstituted vinyl sulfones in the presence of the Me-DuPhos monoxide ligand lead to excellent enantiomeric excesses and high yields (see scheme). The prepared chiral sulfones were desulfonylated and subjected to Julia olefination conditions.

New Synthetic Methods. Conjugate Addition of Alkyl Groups to Electron Deficient Olefins with Nitroalkanes as Alkyl Anion Equivalents

The sequence of the Michael addition of nitroalkanes and denitration from the adduct provides a new and general method for conjugate addition of primary and secondary alkyl groups to electron deficient olefins such as α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, ketones, esters, nitriles, sulfoxides, and sulfones.
