Enantioselective Rhodium-Catalyzed Isomerization of 4-Iminocrotonates: Asymmetric Synthesis of a Unique Chiral Synthon

Abstract: An enantioselective isomerization of 4-iminocrotonates catalyzed by a rhodium(I)/phosphoramidite complex is described. This reaction uses widely available amines to couple with 4-oxocrotonate to provide a convenient access to a central chiral building block in good yield and high enantioselectivity. Although the mechanism of this new transformation remains unclear, both Rh and the phosphoramidite play a central role.

“…N,O-aminals are an interesting class of substituted molecules bearing a geminally N,Osubstituted (stereogenic) carbon center and have been recently recognized as an important class of building blocks in organic synthesis [10]. In the conventional approach, N,O-aminals are derived either from the corresponding α-amido sulfones via nucleophilic substitution, replacing the sulfonyl group with an alkoxy moiety [11][12][13][14][15], or from the corresponding imines by means of nucleophilic addition, introducing an alkoxy group [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24].…”

“…The substrate scope was expanded to alkynyl alcohols and alkynyl amines, yielding the desired fused bicyclic N,O-acetals with excellent yield and enantioselectivity. Based on control experiments, a reaction mechanism is proposed: initially, the gold catalyst coordinates with the alkynyl substrate (15) to form a π-gold-alkyne complex (17) and generated the key cyclic intermediate (18) in situ. On the other hand, chiral Lewis acid Ni(II)/L-PiPr 2 -activated β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoester (16) reacts with 18, affording fused bicyclic acetal 19.…”

“…A bulky chiral monophosphoramidite ligand TIPS-Guiphos L84 was developed and applied to the enantioselective cyclization, providing a convenient access to 5-alkyoxy-3-pyrrolin-2-ones ( 240 ) in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. A possible catalytic cycle was proposed (Scheme ).…”
