Herein, we disclose an efficient cobalt-catalyzed enantioselective C–H activation and annulation of benzamides with alkenes. This transformation is facilitated via the commercially available cobalt(II) catalyst in presence easily prepared chiral salicyl-oxazoline (Salox) ligand, which provides facile access to (R) or (S) enantiomers dihydroisoquinolone derivatives. It noticeable that reaction proceeded efficiently within extremely short time from 10 30 min under mild conditions. A broad range alkenes bear various functional substituents have been shown good compatibility deliver targeted products high yields enantioselectivities (51 examples, up 98% yield 99% ee). The gram scale experiment removal directing group further demonstrate practicability this protocol potential industrial applications. Density theory calculations elucidate mechanism, spin-state change olefin insertion step accelerates subsequent C–N reductive elimination, identified as stereo-determining step.

ConspectusIn contrast to precious transition metals, such as palladium and rhodium, the development of novel chiral ligands for enantioselective C-H functionalizations catalyzed by earth-abundant, cost-effective, environmentally friendly 3d metals poses substantial challenges, primarily due variable oxidation states, intricate coordination patterns, limited mechanistic insights. In this Account, we summarize our research endeavors in three types Co(III) catalysis: pseudotetrahedral achiral Cp*Co(III)/chiral carbonyl acid (CCA) catalysis, situ-generated octahedral cobalt(III) via cobalt/salicyloxazoline (Salox) Co(II)/chiral phosphoric (CPA) cooperative achieved through strategic ligand design. Our initial objective was achieve functionalization Cp*Co(III) catalysts with external ligands, aiming circumvent laborious preparation CpxCo(III) complexes. To end, developed several CCA incorporating non-covalent interactions (NCIs) a crucial design element. Next, address limitations associated lengthy synthesis Cp-ligated complexes difficulties modification, explored concept situ generation catalysis using commercially available cobalt(II) salts tailor-made ligands. This exploration led two innovative catalytic systems, namely, Co(II)/Salox Co(II)/CCA sequential catalysis. The emerged versatile strategy, demonstrating excellent enantioselectivities across range asymmetric reactions construct various molecules central, axial, planar, inherent chirality. facile single step, along ease further enhances versatility applicability approach. Moreover, successfully applied cobalt/Salox electro- photochemical-catalyzed functionalization, electrons or oxygen traceless oxidant, thereby eliminating need stoichiometric chemical oxidants. Through studies reaction developments, elucidated detailed structure-enantioselectivity relationships which are expected inform future endeavors. Finally, Co(II)/CPA enabled spiro-γ-lactams olefination/asymmetric [4 + 1] spirocyclization. Mechanistically, establishment stereochemistry occurs during cyclization where CPA serves both neutral Brønsted acid, stereoinduction independent cleavage step. We anticipate that insights advancements Account will inspire innovations drive progress metal-catalyzed reactions.

Enantioselective electrocatalyzed C–H activations have emerged as a transformative platform for the assembly of value-added chiral organic molecules. Despite recent progress, construction multiple C(sp3)-stereogenic centers via C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond formation has thus far proven to be elusive. In contrast, we herein report an annulative activation strategy, generating Fsp3-rich molecules with high levels diastereo- and enantioselectivity. κ2-N,O-oxazoline preligands were effectively employed in enantioselective cobalt(III)-catalyzed reactions. Using DFT-derived descriptors regression statistical modeling, performed parametrization study on modularity preligands. The resulted model describing ligands' selectivity characterized by key steric, electronic, interaction behaviors.
