- Nickel/Photoredox-Catalyzed Asymmetric Reductive Cross-Coupling of Racemic α-Chloro Esters with Aryl Iodides
-
A unique nickel/organic photoredox co-catalyzed asymmetric reductive cross-coupling between α-chloro esters and aryl iodides is developed. This cross-electrophile coupling reaction employs an organic reductant (Hantzsch ester), whereas most reductive cross-coupling reactions use stoichiometric metals. A diverse array of valuable α-aryl esters is formed under these conditions with high enantioselectivities (up to 94 %) and good yields (up to 88 %). α-Aryl esters represent an important family of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This novel synergistic strategy expands the scope of Ni-catalyzed reductive asymmetric cross-coupling reactions.

- Iron-catalysed enantioselective Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of racemic alkyl bromides
-
The first iron-catalysed enantioselective Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction has been developed. In the presence of catalytic amounts of FeCl2 and (R,R)-QuinoxP?, lithium arylborates are cross-coupled with tert-butyl α-bromopropionate in an enantioconvergent manner, enabling facile access to various optically active α-arylpropionic acids including several nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) of commercial importance. (R,R)-QuinoxP? is specifically able to induce chirality when compared to analogous P-chiral ligands that give racemic products, highlighting the critical importance of transmetalation in the present asymmetric cross-coupling system.

- Cobalt-Catalyzed Enantioselective Negishi Cross-Coupling of Racemic α-Bromo Esters with Arylzincs
-
The first cobalt-catalyzed enantioselective Negishi cross-coupling reaction, and the first arylation of α-halo esters with arylzinc halides, are disclosed. Employing a cobalt-bisoxazoline catalyst, various α-arylalkanoic esters were synthesized in excellent enantioselectivities and yields (up to 97 % ee and 98 % yield). A diverse range of functional groups, including ether, halide, thioether, silyl, amine, ester, acetal, amide, olefin and heteroaromatics is tolerated by this method. This method was suitable for gram-scale reactions, enabling the synthesis of (R)-xanthorrhizol with high enantiopurity. Radical clock experiments support the intermediacy of radicals.

- Iron-Catalyzed Enantioselective Cross-Coupling Reactions of α-Chloroesters with Aryl Grignard Reagents
-
The first iron-catalyzed enantioselective cross-coupling reaction between an organometallic compound and an organic electrophile is reported. Synthetically versatile racemic α-chloro- and α-bromoalkanoates were coupled with aryl Grignard reagents in the presence of catalytic amounts of an iron salt and a chiral bisphosphine ligand, giving the products in high yields with acceptable and synthetically useful enantioselectivities (er up to 91:9). The produced α-arylalkanoates were readily converted to the corresponding α-arylalkanoic acids with high optical enrichment (er up to >99:1) via simple deprotections/recrystallizations. The results of radical probe experiments are consistent with a mechanism that involves the formation of an alkyl radical intermediate, which undergoes subsequent enantioconvergent arylation in an intermolecular manner. The developed asymmetric coupling offers not only facile and practical access to various chiral α-arylalkanoic acid derivatives, which are of significant pharmaceutical importance, but also a basis of controlling enantioselectivity in an iron-catalyzed organometallic transformation.

- Cobalt-bisoxazoline-catalyzed asymmetric kumada cross-coupling of racemic α-bromo esters with aryl grignard reagents
-
The first cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric Kumada cross-coupling with high enantioselectivity has been developed. The reaction affords a unique strategy for the enantioselective arylation of α-bromo esters catalyzed by a cobalt-bisoxazoline complex. A variety of chiral α-arylalkanoic esters were prepared in excellent enantioselectivity and yield (up to 97% ee and 96% yield). The arylated products were transformed into α-arylcarboxylic acids and primary alcohols without erosion of ee. The new enantioenriched α-arylpropionic esters synthesized herein are potentially useful in the development of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This method was conducted on gram-scale and applied to the synthesis of highly enantioenriched (S)-fenoprofen and (S)-ar-turmerone.

- CHIRAL PHOSPHINES FOR PALLADIUM-CATALYZED ASYMMETRIC ALPHA-ARYLATION OF ESTER ENOLATES TO PRODUCE TERTIARY STEREOCENTERS IN HIGH ENANTIOSELECTIVITY
-
The disclosure provides new and improved methods for the Pd-catalyzed asymmetric α-arylation of ester compounds, which produce the corresponding α-aryl moiety in high enantioselectivity (generally >90% ee). The present methods utilize a palladium catalyst supported by new (R)-H8-BINOL-derived monophosphine ligands. The method is applicable to a wide variety of aryl triflate substrates having variations in both electronic and steric properties. These aryl triflate substrates react with various α-alkyl (Z)- and/or (E)-0-trimethylsilyl ketene acetals in the presence of a Pd catalyst, (R)-H8-BINOL-derived monophosphine ligand, and a mild activator, for example, LiOAC, to provide the asymmetric α-arylation of ester compounds in high ee.

- An enantioselective, intermolecular α-arylation of ester enolates to form tertiary stereocenters
-
In transition-metal catalyzed, asymmetric α-arylation of carbonyl compounds, formation of tertiary centers with high enantioselectivity is a longstanding problem, due to easy enolization of the monoarylation products. Herein, we report such examples using a palladium catalyst supported by a new, (R)-H8-BINOL-derived monophosphine. Silyl ketene acetals, together with a weakly basic activator, were used as equivalents of ester anions, and they reacted smoothly with aryl triflates in excellent enantiomeric excess (ee). The usefulness of the reaction was demonstrated in a gram-scale synthesis of (S)-Naproxen in 92% ee.
