Squaramide Organocatalyzed Addition of a Masked Acyl Cyanide to β-Nitrostyrenes

et al.

Abstract: A method for the squaramide-organocatalyzed enantioselective addition of a silyl-protected masked acyl cyanide (MAC) reagent to various β-nitrostyrenes is described. Reactions are carried out in a freezer and provide products cleanly and in high enantioselectivities at very low catalyst loadings. Adducts are then unmasked, providing various oxidation state 3 functional groups, thereby highlighting the utility of these MAC reagents and a new strategy for the preparation of β-amino acids.

This review highlights the use of DACH as a versatile ligand in catalytic asymmetric transformations providing mechanistic rationales and relevant comments presented in chronological order for each of the 21 reaction types with references up to December 25, 2023. Intended to be as practically comprehensive as possible, this review assembles useful examples of using DACH as a ligand in organocatalytic or as metal complexes in asymmetric transformations. The resulting enantiomerically enriched, if not pure, chiral non-racemic small molecules are of great utility as value added intermediates in the total synthesis of natural products, in the design and synthesis of medicinally important compounds, and in other areas in organic and bioorganic chemistry where chirality plays a role.
