Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 143(35), С. 14089 - 14096

A nickel-catalyzed, multicomponent regio- and enantioselective coupling via sequential hydroformylation carbonylation from readily available starting materials has been developed. This modular hydrofunctionalization strategy enables the straightforward reductive hydrocarbonylation of a broad range unactivated alkenes to produce wide variety unsymmetrical dialkyl ketones bearing functionalized α-stereocenter, including enantioenriched chiral α-aryl α-amino ketones. It uses bisoxazoline as ligand, silane reductant, chloroformate safe CO source, racemic secondary benzyl chloride or an N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) ester protected acid alkylation reagent. The benign nature this process renders method suitable for late-stage functionalization complex molecules.

The formal hydroamination/hydroamidation utilizing metal hydride is an appealing synthetic tool for the construction of valuable nitrogen-containing compounds from unsaturated hydrocarbons. While significant advances have been made functionalizations alkenes in this realm, direct hydroamidation alkynes remains rather limited due to high feasibility key metal-alkenyl intermediate choose other reaction pathways. Herein, we report a NiH-catalyzed strategy with dioxazolones, which allows convenient access synthetically useful secondary enamides (E)-anti-Markovnikov or Markovnikov selectivity. viable both terminal and internal also tolerant range subtle functional groups. With H2O found as essential component catalyst turnovers, involvement inner-sphere nitrenoid transfer proposed that outcompetes undesired semireduction process, thus representing first example show competence Ni catalysis metal-nitrenoid formation dioxazolones.

Regiodivergent alkyne hydroalkylation to generate different isomers of an alkene from the same starting material would be beneficial; however, it remains a challenge. Herein, we report ligand-controlled cobalt-catalyzed regiodivergent hydroalkylation. The sensible selection bisoxazoline (L1) and pyridine-oxazoline (L8) ligands led reliable predictable protocols that provided (E)-1,2-disubstituted 1,1-disubstituted alkenes with high E/Z stereoselectivity regioisomeric ratio identical terminal alkyl halide substrates produced trisubstituted in case internal alkynes. This method exhibits broad scope for alkynes wide range activated unactivated halides shows excellent functional group compatibility.

Enantioselective Hydrothiolation: Diverging Cyclopropenes through Ligand Control

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 143(16), С. 6176 - 6184

Опубликована: Апрель 15, 2021

In this article, we advance Rh-catalyzed hydrothiolation through the divergent reactivity of cyclopropenes. Cyclopropenes undergo to provide cyclopropyl sulfides or allylic sulfides. The choice bisphosphine ligand dictates whether pathway involves ring-retention ring-opening. Mechanistic studies reveal origin for switchable selectivity. Our results suggest two pathways share a common cyclopropyl-Rh(III) intermediate. Electron-rich Josiphos ligands promote direct reductive elimination from intermediate afford in high enantio- and diastereoselectivities. Alternatively, atropisomeric (such as DTBM-BINAP) enable ring-opening generate with regiocontrol.

Skeletal rearrangement that changes the connectivity of molecule via cleavage and reorganization carbon–carbon bonds is a fundamental powerful strategy in complex molecular assembly. Because lack effective methods to control migratory tendency different groups, achieving switchable selectivity skeletal has been long-standing quest. Metal-based dyotropic provides unique opportunity address this challenge. However, remains unexplored. Herein, we show such problem could be solved by modifying ligands on metal catalyst changing oxidation states aptitude thereby providing ligand-controlled, strategy. Experimental density functional theory calculation studies prove rational design. The occurs only when nickel(II) intermediate reduced more nucleophilic nickel(I) species, sterically hindered iPrPDI ligand facilitates 1,2-aryl/Ni rearrangement, while terpyridine promotes 1,2-acyl/Ni rearrangement. This method allows site-selective activation C–C applied for divergent synthesis four medicinally relevant fluorine-containing scaffolds from same starting material.
