Thiazolylalanine-derived catalysts for enantioselective intermolecular aldehyde-imine cross-couplings.

Catalytic asymmetric cross-coupling reactions between aldehydes and N-acylimines have been discovered that employ thiazolylalanine derivatives as catalysts. Alkylation of the thiazolyl moiety, followed by in situ generation of the derived thiazolium ylide using a tertiary amine base, leads to the active catalyst. alpha-Amidoketone products are isolated in up to 90% yield with up to 87% enantiomeric excess (>98% ee after a single recrystallization). The use of a hindered base to suppress product racemization was stimulated by a mechanistic study that revealed an isotope effect on the racemization rate of the product.

Asymmetric synthesis of alpha-substituted beta-amino ketones from sulfinimines (N-sulfinyl imines). synthesis of the indolizidine alkaloid (-)-223A.

Of the possible four stereoisomers, addition of the lithium enolate of 4-heptanone to sulfinimines resulted in only the syn- and anti-alpha-substituted beta-amino ketones. The formation of the major syn-beta-amino ketone was rationalized in terms of addition of the E-enolate to the C-N double bond of the sulfinimine via a six-member chelated chairlike transition state. The enolates of 4-heptanone were generated using LiHMDS in THF where a 1:2.5 E:Z enolate ratio was noted. In diethyl ether the E:Z ratio was 15:1 in favor of the E-enolate and explained in terms of Ireland's transition state model. Here increased steric interactions between the ethyl group and the carbonyl-LiN(TMS)(2) moiety destabilize the transition state leading to the Z-enolate in the poorly coordinating diethyl ether solvent. This new synthesis of syn-alpha-substituted-beta-amino ketones was applied to the concise enantioselective total synthesis of indolizidine (-)-223A, a 5,6,8-trisubstituted alkaloid isolated from the skin of the dendrobatide frog.

Lithiated imines: solvent-dependent aggregate structures and mechanisms of alkylation.

We describe efforts to understand the structure and reactivity of lithiated cyclohexanone N-cyclohexylimine. The lithioimine affords complex solvent-dependent distributions of monomers, dimers, and trimers in a number of ethereal solvents. Careful selection of solvent provides exclusively monosolvated dimers. Rate studies on the C-alkylations reveal chronic mixtures of monomer- and dimer-based pathways. We explore the factors influencing reactants and alkylation transition structures and the marked differences between lithioimines and isostructural lithium dialkylamides with the aid of density functional theory calculations.

Vanadium-catalyzed addition of propargyl alcohols and imines.

A Mannich-type addition of propargylic alcohols and N-methoxycarbonylimines has been achieved by using a vanadium catalyst. The reactivity of the vanadium catalyst could be modulated by modifying the silanol ligands to avoid the background reaction. The strategy described herein provides an atom-economical access to beta-aryl-substituted Z-enones with an allylic amino functional group, which are not readily accessible with other methods.

Asymmetric synthesis of beta-amino acid derivatives incorporating a broad range of substitution patterns by enolate additions to tert-butanesulfinyl imines.

Addition of Ti(Oi-Pr)(3) ester enolates to tert-butanesulfinyl aldimines and ketimines provided beta-substituted, alpha,beta- and beta,beta-disubstituted, alpha,beta,beta- and alpha,alpha,beta-trisubstituted, and alpha,alpha,beta,beta-tetrasubstituted beta-amino acid derivatives in high yields and with high diastereoselectivites. The N-sulfinyl-beta-amino ester products were further employed as versatile intermediates for both standard solution-phase and solid-phase synthetic transformations, including the synthesis of beta-peptide foldamers.

Stereocontrolled synthesis of triazacyclopenta[cd]pentalenes by intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of azomethine imines.

The construction of triazacyclopenta[cd]pentalene diesters 6 by the reaction of dihydropyrrole alpha-ketoesters 3 with acylated hydrazines was evaluated further as a potential central strategic step in the total syntheses of complex guanidine alkaloids such as palau'amine and styloguanidine. Successful cyclocondensations were realized with acid-stable 2,2,2-trichloroethyl carbazate and thiosemicarbazide, but not tert-butyl carbazate. The substituent on the pyrrolidine nitrogen can be alkoxycarbonyl, sulfonyl, or an N-alkyl-2-acylpyrrole group. Siloxy substitution at C1 of the alpha-ketoester side chain is also tolerated.
