SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REGIOSELECTIVE CARBONYLATION OF 2,2-DISUBSTITUTED EPOXIDES

Provided are methods of carbonylating cyclic substrates to produce carbonyl ated cyclic products. The cyclic substrates may be 2, 2-di substituted epoxides and the cyclic products may be β,β-di substituted lactones. The method may be carried out by forming and pressurizing a reaction mixture of the cyclic substrate, a solvent, carbon monoxide, and a [LA+][CO(CO)4-] catalyst, where [LA+] is a Lewis acid capable of coordinating to the cyclic substrate. The method may proceed with a regioselectivity of 90:10 or greater. The resulting carbonylated cyclic products may be converted to ketone aldol products that retain the stereochemistry and enantiomeric ratio of the carbonyl ated cyclic products.

Iridium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of 2H-Chromenes: A Highly Enantioselective Approach to Isoflavan Derivatives

A highly efficient (aS)-Ir/In-BiphPHOX-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of substituted 2H-chromenes and substituted benzo[e][1,2]oxathiine 2,2-dioxides is described. A series of 2H-chromenes and benzo[e][1,2]oxathiine 2,2-dioxides were hydrogenated to give the target products in high yields (92-99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99.7% ee) using our catalytic system. This reaction provides a direct and efficient method for the construction of chiral benzo six-membered oxygen-containing compounds.

PROCESS FOR EPOXIDATION OF ARYL ALLYL ETHERS

A process for making an aromatic glycidyl ether epoxy compound by contacting an allyl ether made from the hydroxy moiety of a hydroxy-containing aromatic compound with an inorganic or organic hydroperoxide oxidant in the presence of a transition metal complex catalyst, wherein at least (a) the allyl ether is conformationally restricted or (b) the transition metal complex catalyst contains at least one or more stable ligands attached to the transition metal. The process of the present invention provides for epoxidizing aryl allyl ethers with high epoxidation yield (for example, greater than 70 percent to 90 percent) and high hydroperoxide selectivity (for example, greater than 70 percent to 90 percent).
