ConspectusChemo- and stereoselective transformations of polyborylalkanes are powerful efficient methods to access optically active molecules with greater complexity diversity through programmed synthetic design. Among the various polyborylalkanes, gem-diborylalkanes have attracted much attention in organic chemistry as versatile handles. The notable advantage lies their ability generate two key intermediates, α-borylalkyl anions (gem-diborylalkyl) anions. These different intermediates can be applied enantioselective reactions rapidly a diverse set enantioenriched organoboron compounds, which further manipulated chiral molecule libraries via stereospecific C(sp3)–B bond transformations.In this Account, we summarize our recent contributions development catalytic chemo- using nucleophiles, categorized follows: (1) copper-catalyzed coupling electrophiles (2) design synthesis (diborylmethyl)metallic species applications reactions. Since Shibata Endo reported Pd-catalyzed chemoselective Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling organohalides 2014, Morken Hall subsequently developed first analogous TADDOL-derived phosphoramidite supporting ligand palladium catalyst. This discovery sparked interest electrophiles. Our initial studies focused on generating (α-borylmethyl)copper by enantiotopic-group-selective transmetalation copper complexes aldimines ketimines afford syn-β-aminoboronate esters excellent enantio- diastereoselectivity. Moreover, allylation that proceeded reaction situ-generated (α-borylalkyl)copper allyl bromides. Mechanistic investigations revealed between complex occurred open transition state rather than closed state, thereby effectively species. We also utilized such (diborylmethyl)silanes (diborylmethyl)zinc halides succeeded developing aryl iodides benzylic 1,1-silylboronate esters, could used for consecutive molecules. In addition, synthesized time isolated (diborylmethyl)lithium zinc(II) utilization bearing center at β-position an iridium-catalyzed allylic substitution process. addition research efforts, include other groups. hope Account will draw community gem-diboryl compounds provide guiding principles future compounds.

Recent years have witnessed an increase in the popularity of α-boryl organometallic reagents as versatile nucleophiles asymmetric synthesis. These compounds been adopted chemo- and stereoselective coupling reactions with a number different electrophiles. The resulting enantioenriched boronic esters can be applied stereospecific carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bond construction reactions, enabling two-step strategy for complex structures high efficiency functional group compatibility. Due to these reasons, tremendous effort has devoted preparation enantiomerically enriched development related racemic prochiral materials. In this review, we describe enantio- diastereoselective that involve starting materials products showcase their synthetic utility.

Modularity in the C_sp3 Space─Alkyl Germanes as Orthogonal Molecular Handles for Chemoselective Diversification

ACS Catalysis, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 12(9), С. 4833 - 4839

Опубликована: Апрель 8, 2022

To meet the need for a rapid, streamlined, and potentially automatable molecule synthesis, modular coupling approaches are highly desired. While diversification of aromatic molecules, i.e., Csp2 space, has greatly advanced, syntheses in Csp3 space comparably much less developed. This report explores potential alternative functional handles, alkyl germanes, this context, which combine features stability synthesizability with selective reactivity. We show chemoselective functionalization germanes (R-GeEt3) under photoredox conditions (Giese addition) implementation building block, allows Csp3-halogen vs Csp3-Bpin Csp3-GeEt3 sites.

Electrooxidative Activation of B−B Bond in B₂cat₂: Access to gem‐Diborylalkanes via Paired Electrolysis

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 62(14)

Опубликована: Фев. 1, 2023

This report describes the unprecedented electrooxidation of a solvent (e.g., DMF)-ligated B2 cat2 complex, whereby solvent-stabilized boryl radical is formed via quasi-homolytic cleavage B-B bond in DMF-ligated cation. Cyclic voltammetry and density functional theory provide evidence to support this novel activation strategy. Furthermore, strategy for electrochemical gem-diborylation gem-bromides paired electrolysis developed first time, affording range versatile gem-diborylalkanes, which are widely used synthetic society. Notably, reaction approach scalable, transition-metal-free, requires no external activator.

Palladium‐Catalyzed Cascade Heck Coupling and Allylboration of Iododiboron Compounds via Diboryl Radicals

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 63(18)

Опубликована: Март 6, 2024

Geminal bis(boronates) are versatile synthetic building blocks in organic chemistry. The fact that they predominantly serve as nucleophiles the previous reports, however, has restrained their potential. Herein we disclose ambiphilic reactivity of α-halogenated geminal bis(boronates), which first catalytic utilization was accomplished by merging a formal Heck cross-coupling with highly diastereoselective allylboration aldehydes or imines, providing new avenue for rapid assembly polyfunctionalized boron-containing compounds. We demonstrated this cascade reaction is efficient and compatible various functional groups, wide range heterocycles. In contrast to classical Pd(0/II) scenario, mechanistic experiments DFT calculations have provided strong evidence cycle involving Pd(I)/diboryl carbon radical intermediates.

Asymmetric Synthesis of Chiral 1,2‐Bis(Boronic) Esters Featuring Acyclic, Non‐Adjacent 1,3‐Stereocenters

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 63(5)

Опубликована: Дек. 15, 2023

The construction of acyclic, non-adjacent 1,3-stereogenic centers, prevalent motifs in drugs and bioactive molecules, has been a long-standing synthetic challenge due to acyclic nucleophiles being distant from the chiral environment. In this study, we successfully synthesized highly valuable 1,2-bis(boronic) esters featuring nonadjacent 1,3-stereocenters. Notably, reaction selectively produces migratory coupling products rather than alternative deborylative allylation or direct byproducts. This approach introduces new activation mode for selective transformations gem-diborylmethane asymmetric catalysis. Additionally, found that other gem-diborylalkanes, previously challenging steric hindrance, also participated reaction. incorporation 1,2-bis(boryl)alkenes facilitated diversification alkenyl two boron moieties our target compounds, thereby enabling access broad array versatile molecules. DFT calculations were performed elucidate mechanism shed light on factors responsible observed excellent enantioselectivity diastereoselectivity.
