This study establishes the first organocatalytic enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral N,N'-bisindoles via phosphoric acid-catalyzed formal (3+2) cycloadditions indole-based enaminones as novel platform molecules with 2,3-diketoesters, where de novo indole-ring formation is involved. Using this new strategy, various were synthesized in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 87 % yield 96 ee). More importantly, class exhibited some degree cytotoxicity toward cancer cells was derived into phosphine ligands high catalytic activity. provides a strategy for using asymmetric organocatalysis realize applications such scaffolds medicinal chemistry catalysis.

Synthesis of Axially ChiralN‐Arylindoles via Atroposelective Cyclization of Ynamides Catalyzed by Chiral Brønsted Acids

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 61(20)

Опубликована: Март 5, 2022

In recent years, asymmetric catalysis of ynamides has attracted much attention, but these reactions mostly constructed central chirality, except for a few examples on the synthesis axially chiral compounds which exclusively relied noble-metal catalysis. Herein, facile access to N-heterocycles enabled by Brønsted acid-catalyzed 5-endo-dig cyclization is disclosed, represents first metal-free protocol construction from ynamides. This method allows practical and atom-economical valuable N-arylindoles in excellent yields with generally enantioselectivities. Moreover, organocatalysts ligands based such N-arylindole skeletons are demonstrated be applicable

Enantioselective Synthesis of N−N Bisindole Atropisomers

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 61(44)

Опубликована: Сен. 15, 2022

N-N Atropisomers are a common motif in natural products and represent significant dimension for exploration modern pharmaceutical medicinal chemistry. However, the catalytic atroposelective synthesis of such molecules remains challenging, hampering meaningful development. In particular, an enantioselective bisindole atropisomers is unprecedented. Herein, first via palladium-catalyzed de novo construction one indole skeleton presented. A wide variety axially chiral bisindoles were generated good yields with excellent enantioselectivities cascade condensation/N-arylation reaction. Structurally diverse indole-pyrrole, indole-carbazole, non-biaryl-indole possessing axis accessed using this protocol. Moreover, investigations density functional theory (DFT) calculations provided insight into reaction mechanism enantiocontrol.

ConspectusAtropisomers bearing a rotation-restricted axis are common structural units in natural products, chiral ligands, and drugs; thus, the prevalence of asymmetric synthesis has increased recent decades. Research into atropisomers featuring an N-containing (N-X atropisomers) remains its infancy compared with well-developed C-C atropisomer analogue. Notably, N-X could offer divergent scaffolds, which extremely important bioactive molecules. The is recognized as both appealing challenging. Recently, we devoted our efforts to catalytic atropisomers, benzimidazole-aryl N-C indole-aryl hydrogen-bond-assisted pyrrole-pyrrole N-N pyrrole-indole indole-indole atropisomers. To obtain Buchwald-Hartwig reaction amidines or enamines was employed. Using Pd(OAc)2/(S)-BINAP Pd(OAc)2/(S)-Xyl-BINAP catalyst system, were readily obtained. address issue reduced stability diarylamine axis, six-membered intramolecular N-H-O hydrogen bond introduced scaffold.
