Dynamic Kinetic Resolution-Based Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Racemic 2-Substituted Quinolines

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Янв. 22, 2025

The synthesis of chiral tetrahydroquinolines (THQs) has garnered significant interest from medicinal chemists due to their frequent presence as pharmacophores in bioactive compounds. While existing synthetic methods have primarily focused on THQs with single or multiple endocyclic centers, the selective construction both endo- and exo-cyclic centers remains a challenge that requires further development. This study introduces dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR)-based transfer hydrogenation racemic 2-substituted quinolines, which yields structurally novel consecutive excellent stereoselectivities (59 examples, generally >20:1 dr >90% ee, up three stereocenters). Our approach offers mechanistically method for asymmetric transformation electron-deficient aromatic N-heterocycles presents an innovative way expand N-heterocycle chemical space chemistry.

Опубликована: Фев. 5, 2025

Chiral 1,4-dihydroquinolines are frequently found in natural products and pharmaceuticals, yet a generally useful route for their synthesis remains elusive. Here, we present an asymmetric partial hydrogenation strategy to access enantioenriched from quinolines. Our involves incorporating ester group at position 3 of the quinoline ring, thereby enhancing electronic deficiency polarity C3–C4 double bond. Employing chiral Ir-SpiroPAP catalyst facilitated wide variety 4-substituted 3-ethoxycarbonylquinolines, yielding high yields (up 95%) with exceptional enantioselectivity efficiency 99% ee 1840 TONs). Noteworthy its scalability practicality, method provides robust avenue valuable compounds such as 9-aryl aza-podophyllotoxins melatonin MT2 receptor modulators. Density functional theory calculations were performed gain insights into reaction mechanism origins enantioselectivity.
