Catalytic Enantioselective Aza-Reformatsky Reaction with Cyclic Imines

2016

A catalytic highly enantioselective aza-Reformatsky reaction with cyclic aldimines and ketimines for the synthesis of chiral b-amino esters with good yields and excellent enantioselectivities is reported.Areadily available diaryl prolinol is used as a chiral ligand, ZnMe2 as a zinc source and ethyl iodoacetate as reagent in the presence of air atmosphere. The reaction with cyclic ketimines generates a quaternary stereocenter with excellent levels of enantioselectivity. Furthermore, five-membered N-sulfonyl ketimines were used as electrophiles with good enantiomeric excesses, under the optimized reaction conditions. Moreover, several chemical transformations were performed with the chiral b-…

A convenient enantioselective route to new types of pentacyclic spirooxindoles via [3+3] annulation reactions of isatin-derived enals and cyclic N-sulfonyl ketimines, using N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has been developed. The new protocol leads to pentacyclic spirooxindoles bearing a quaternary spirostereocenter in good yields and good to high enantiomeric ratios. peerReviewed
