ChemInform Abstract: The Construction of Quaternary Stereocenters by the Henry Reaction: Circumventing the Usual Reactivity of Substituted Glyoxals.
2011
The enantioselective Henry reaction between alkyl- and arylglyoxal hydrates and nitromethane catalyzed by Cu(II)-iminopyridine complexes takes place regioselectively on the ketone carbonyl group to give chiral tertiary nitroaldols with high functional group density and enantiomeric excesses of up to 96 %. Both aromatic and aliphatic glyoxals are suitable substrates for this reaction.
Stereoselective Synthesis of the Glycosidase Inhibitor Australine through a One-Pot, Double-Cyclization Strategy
2006
[reaction: see text] A stereocontrolled, convergent synthesis of the alkaloid australine, a glycosidase inhibitor of the pyrrolizidine class, is described. The chiral starting materials were ketone 3, derived from L-erythrulose, and alpha-alkoxy aldehyde 4, prepared from L-malic acid. A key step of the synthesis was the highly stereoselective aldol reaction between 4 and a Z boron enolate derived from 3. Another key step was the one-pot construction of the bicyclic pyrrolizidine system by means of a three-step sequence of SN2 displacements induced by benzylamine on a trimesylate precursor.
ChemInform Abstract: Enantioselective Addition of Terminal Alkynes to N-(Diphenylphosphinoyl)imines Catalyzed by Zn-BINOL Complexes.
2012
Abstract Chiral nonracemic N-(diphenylphosphinoyl)-protected propargylic amines have been prepared by addition of terminal alkynes to N-(diphenylphosphinoyl)aldimines in the presence of dimethylzinc and 3,3′-dibromo-BINOL as catalyst. The reaction works with a variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic aldimines and with different alkynes, providing the expected products in generally good yields and enantiomeric excesses (up to 96%).
Reactions of α-diimino ligands with the chloro-bridged dimer [RhCl(COD)]2(COD=1,5-cyclooctadiene)
1988
Abstract The reactions of α-diimino ligands N - N ′ [ N - N ′= 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy), C 5 H 4 N2CHNR (R= C 6 H 4 OMe- p , PyCa), RNCHCHNR (R=C 6 H 4 - OMe- p , DAB)] with [RhCl(COD)] 2 give rise to stoichiometry, solvent, ligand, and temperature dependent equilibria. In general, the 1/1 ligand/dimer reaction yields the ionic product [Rh(COD)( N - N ′)] [RhCl 2 (COD)], at room temperature. For N - N ′=DAB, the ionic form is in equilibrium with the binuclear compound [{RhCl(COD)} (μ-DAB){RhCl(COD)}] (containing a σ σ,'- N , N ′ bridging α-diimine), which becomes the predominant species at low temperatures. In [Rh(COD)( N - N ′)] [RhCl 2 (COD)], a fast exchange of the Rh(COD) unit betwe…
Organocatalyticanti-Selective Mannich Reactions with Fluorinated Aldimines: Synthesis ofanti-γ-Fluoroalkyl-γ-amino Alcohols
2009
The asymmetric Mannich reaction between fluoroalkyl aldimines and aldehydes catalyzed by α,α-diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether is reported. The corresponding Mannich adducts were reduced in situ to afford anti-β-alkyl-γ-fluoroalkyl-γ-amino alcohols in moderate yields and with very high diastereo- and enantioselectivities.

Enantioselective Organocatalysis of Strecker and Mannich Reactions Based on Carbohydrates.
2007
Efficient organocatalysts for enantioselective Strecker and Mannich reactions were constructed from glucosamine as a readily accessible chiral scaffold. A variety of aromatic aldimines were subjected to hydrocyanation with good to excellent yield (72–98 %) and, in part, high enantioselectivity (69–95 % ee). Influence of the catalyst architecture on the enantioselectivity obviously arises from restrictions imposed on the conformational flexibility of the monosaccharidic backbone. In the asymmetric Mannich reaction moderate yields (up to 76 %) and enantioselectivities (up to 58 % ee) have been achieved with the described catalyst.

ChemInform Abstract: Facile Synthesis of 2-Nitroalkanols by Tetramethylguanidine (TMG)- Catalyzed Addition of Primary Nitroalkanes to Aldehydes and A…
2010
Abstract Tetramethylguanidine-catalyzed addition of primary nitroalkanes to aldehydes and alicyclic ketones constitutes a practical means to perform the nitro-aldol reaction (Henry reaction). The very mild conditions employed, together with the short reaction times, make the procedure tolerant of a range of functionalities and highly versatile for the synthesis of a variety of 2-nitroalkanols.

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-29-Methylidyne-2,3-oxidosqualene Derivatives as Inhibitors of Liver and Yeast Oxidosqualene Cyclase.
2010
The synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-29-methylidyne-2,3-oxidosqualene derivatives is described starting from the C22 and C17 squalene aldehyde monobromohydrins. The conversion was achieved by means of a Wittig reaction, followed by desilylation of the terminal acetylene. For trisubstituted 1,3-enynes, preliminary alkylation with a suitable allyl bromide was performed. A new procedure for the synthesis of squalene aldehyde C27, C22 and C17 monobromohydrins is also described. Some of the new compounds behaved as inhibitors of pig liver and yeast oxidosqualene cyclase and were time-dependent inhibitors of the animal enzyme.
