Abstract: This manuscript describes a highly enantioselective oxidative cyclization of N-Allyl Benzamides and derivatives thereof. This method uses a chiral triazole-based iodine catalyst to generate a hypervalent iodine compound in situ as the active catalytic species. Besides oxazolines, other N-heterocylces such as thiazolines, imidazolines as well as oxanines can be generated in high optical purities. <br>

This study presents an enantioselective oxidative cyclization of N-allyl carboxamides via a chiral triazole-substituted iodoarene catalyst. The method allows the synthesis of highly enantioenriched oxazolines and oxazines, with yields of up to 94% and enantioselectivities of up to 98% ee. Quaternary stereo centers can be constructed and, besides N-allyl amides, the corresponding thioamides and imideamides are well tolerated as substrates, giving rise to a plethora of chiral 5-membered N-heterocycles. By applying a multitude of further functionalizations, we finally demonstrate the high value of the observed chiral heterocycles as strategic intermediates for the synthesis of other enantioenriched target structures.sustaining the stereochemistry (92% ee). 71 Lastly, we prepared 3-aminopropane-1,2-diol by a reduction of 3a followed by acid-mediated ring-opening to give the amino diol 4g. Since this compound could not be analyzed by HPLC, it was directly transformed into the N-tosylated derivative 4h. 4h was isolated in 42% yield but with a diminished selectivity of 78% ee .In summary, we have established a practical method for the enantioselective oxidative cyclization of N-allyl amides by using an improved triazole-substituted iodoarene catalyst. This method is characterized by a broad substrate scope which allows the construction of highly enantioenriched 5-oxazolines, thiazolines, and imidazolines. Quaternary stereocenters can be constructed with high efficiency as well and the method was further extended to oxazines. Many of the constructed compounds can serve as chiral building blocks for the synthesis of interesting chiral target structures. This was demonstrated in a variety of further functionalizations, in particular of the terminal OH group.In further investigations, we aim to apply C1-symmetric triazole-based iodoarenes in similar oxidative cyclizations to generate other useful 5-and 6-membered heterocycles. Additionally, cascade reactions in which the reactive hypervalent iodine intermediate is trapped directly by nucleophiles other than OH will also be part of future investigations.
