NMR Spectroscopic Characterization and DFT Calculations of Zirconium(IV)-3,3′-Br2–BINOLate and Related Complexes Used in an Enantioselective Friedel–…
2012
Experimental and theoretical studies on the structure of several complexes based on (R)-3,3'-Br-2-BINOL ligand and group (IV) metals used as catalysts in an enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones have been carried out. NMR spectroscopic studies of these catalysts have been performed, which suggested that at room temperature the catalysts would form a monomeric structure in the case of Ti-IV and a dimeric structure in the cases of Zr-IV and Hf-IV. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations clearly corroborate the conclusions of these experimental spectroscopic studies. The dimeric structure with a doubly bridged motif [Zr-2(IV)(mu-(R)-3,3'…
Natural Product Synthesis on Polymeric Supports—Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of an Indolactam Library
1999
Potent activators of protein kinase C in fibroblasts: This property was determined for several indolactam V analogues (1) with a new cell-based assay system. This tumor-promoting indole alkaloid and analogues thereof can be synthesized efficiently on the solid phase. The key steps of the combinatorial approach are a regioselective amination of the indole ring and an enantioselective enzymatic reaction.
ChemInform Abstract: Catalytic Enantioselective Friedel—Crafts Alkylation at the 2-Position of Indole with Simple Enones.
2008
Abstract A procedure for the enantioselective alkylation of indole at the 2-position with simple non-chelating enones is described for the first time. Reaction between 4,7-dihydroindole and enones in the presence of zirconium(IV)–BINOL complexes, followed by a p -benzoquinone oxidation gives indoles alkylated at the 2-position with good yields and moderate enantioselectivities.

ChemInform Abstract: Enantioselective Friedel-Crafts Alkylation of Indoles with (E)-1-Aryl-4-benzyloxybut-2-en-1-ones Catalyzed by an (R)-3,3′-Br2BIN…
2013
A highly enantioselective Friedel–Crafts reaction of unprotected indoles with (E)-1-aryl-4-benzyloxybut-2-en-1-ones catalyzed by a new chiral [Hf{(R)-3,3′-Br2-BINOL}(OtBu)2]2 complex has been developed to functionalize the C-3 position of the indole nucleus with a side chain bearing a 1,4-difunctionalized moiety and a benzylic stereogenic center. The reaction proceeds in good to excellent yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97 % ee). The usefulness of this approach was illustrated with the synthesis of a tryptophol derivative.

Synthesis of Functionalized Indoles with a Trifluoromethy-Substituted Stereogenic Tertiary Carbon Atom Through an Enantioselective Friedel-Crafts Alk…
2010
[EN] Chiral complexes of BINOL-based ligands with zirconium tert-butoxide catalyze the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of indoles with beta-trifluoromethyl-alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones to give functionalized indoles with an asymmetric tertiary carbon center attached to a trifluoromethyl group. The reaction can be applied to a large number of substituted alpha-trifluoromethyl enones and substituted indoles. The expected products were obtained with good yields and ees of up to 99%.
Organocatalytic Enantioselective Friedel–Crafts Aminoalkylation of Indoles in the Carbocyclic Ring
2016
The first general catalytic method for the, so far elusive, enantioselective Friedel−Crafts functionalization of indoles in the carbocyclic ring is presented. This transformation contrasts with the usual tendency of these heterocycles to react at the azole ring. For this purpose, the four regioisomeric hydroxy carbocyclic-substituted indoles were reacted with several isatinderived ketimines, using a Cinchona alkaloid-based squaramide, in a low 0.5−5 mol % catalyst loading, as a bifunctional catalyst. This methodology allows the functionalization of indoles in every position of the carbocyclic ring in a regio- and enantioselective fashion, by switching only the position of the hydroxy group …
Stereoselective Synthesis of Enantiomerically Pure Nupharamine Alkaloids from Castoreum
2009
An animalic note: The first total synthesis of the all-cis nupharamine 2, an alkaloid from beaver castoreum, is based on the stereoselective domino Mannich-Michael reaction of N-galactosylfurylaldimine to give 1 (Piv = pivaloyl), subsequent conjugate cuprate addition, and stereoselective protonation of the enolate. These reactions are all controlled by the carbohydrate. Protonation of the enolate after cleavage of the auxiliary leads to epimer 3.
