Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 146(13), С. 9241 - 9251

Опубликована: Март 19, 2024

Much attention has been focused on the catalytic asymmetric creation of single chiral centers or two adjacent stereocenters. However, construction nonadjacent stereocenters is significant importance but challenging because lack remote induction models. Herein, based a C═C bond relay strategy, we report synergistic Pd/Cu-catalyzed 1,5-double model. All four stereoisomers target products bearing 1,5-nonadjacent involving both allenyl axial and central chirality could be obtained divergently by simply changing combination catalysts with different configurations. Control experiments DFT calculations reveal novel mechanism 1,5-oxidative addition, contra-thermodynamic η3-allyl palladium shift, conjugate nucleophilic substitution, which play crucial roles in control reactivity, regio-, enantio-, diastereoselectivity. It expected that this strategy may provide general protocol for synthesis structural motifs distant
