Planar Chirality of Imidazole‐Containing Macrocycles – Understanding and Tuning Atropisomerism

Abstract: The synthesis and characterization of imidazole-containing macrocycles displaying planar chirality has been achieved. HLPC and NMR studies revealed the crucial role of the alicyclic chain length in determining the rate of stereoisomerisation: 15-and 16-membered cyclic compounds are chiral whereas their larger-ringed analogues equilibrate rapidly at room temperature. Computational calculations are in good

“…Similarly, 15- to 18-membered ring macrocycles that incorporate an imidazole group were synthesized using a RCM of the corresponding dienes using GII as the catalyst ( Scheme 25 ) [ 64 66 ].…”

“…Van Den Berge et al also used principally the same method to elaborate other 5-aryl-1 H -imidazole-containing macrocycles 8 – 10 by varying the size cavity ( Figure 3 ) [ 18 ]. They found that the cyclisation step yield increased with an increase in the chain length.…”

“…Finally, the imidazole nucleus has also been used to elaborate C–C ‐bonded atropisomeric 15‐ and 16‐membered macrocycles 20a and 20b from precursor 19 by ring‐closing metathesis followed by hydrogenation. These macrocycles 20a and 20b show high barriers to rotation of 170.9 and 109.5 kJ mol –1 , corresponding to half‐lives of racemization at 25 °C of several trillion years and 40 days, respectively (Scheme ) …”
