Опубликована: Июнь 15, 2023

Abstract Asymmetric cross‐couplings based on 1,2‐carbon migration from B‐ate complexes have been developed efficiently to access valuable organoboronates. However, enantioselective reactions triggered by 1,2‐boron shift remained be unaddressed synthetic challenge. Here, Ir‐catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation enabled was developed. In this reaction, we disclosed that excellent enantioselectivities were achieved through an interesting dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) process of carbonates at the elevated temperature. Notably, highly (bis‐boryl)alkenes array diversifications versatile molecules. Extensive experimental and computational studies conducted elucidate reaction mechanism DKR clarify origin enantioselectivities.

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.
