P-Chiral (S,RP)-2-{1'-[butyl(phenyl)phosphanyl]ferrocen-1-yl}-4-isopropyl-4,5-dihydrooxazole (6) and (S,SP)-2-{1'-[butyl(phenyl)phosphanyl]ferrocen-1-yl}-4-isopropyl-4,5-dihydrooxazole (7) were prepared by the procedure developed by Jugé, starting from enantiomerically pure (-)- or (+)-ephedrine and dichloro(phenyl)phosphine. Compounds 6 and 7 were examined for asymmetric induction in the Pd-catalyzed reaction of rac-1,3-diphenylallyl acetate with dimethyl malonate. The best results were obtained with 7 (98% ee), while 6 gave 82% ee.

Selective Addition

One of the more powerful routes to enantiomerically-pure carbocycles is the desymmetrization of a prochiral ring. Karl Anker Jørgensen of Aarhus University has found (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 441) that many cyclic β-ketoesters, including the vinylogous carbonate 1, can be homologated with 2 to the corresponding alkyne 3, in high ee. Sanzhong Luo of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Jin-Pei Cheng, of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Nankai University, have shown (J. Org. Chem. 2007, 72, 9350) that the catalyst 6 mediated the selective addition of 4-substituted cyclohexanones such as 4 to the nitroalkene 5, establishing three new stereogenic centers. Organocatalysts, alone or complexed with activating metals, have also been used to effect enantioselective ring construction. E. J. Corey of Harvard University has established (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 12686) that the proline-derived complex 10 will mediate the 2 + 2 addition of a cyclic enol ether with an acrylate to give the cyclobutane 11. Further elaboration led to the cyclohexenone 12. Armando Córdova of Stockholm University has described (Tetrahedron Lett. 2007, 48, 5835) a novel route to cyclopentanones such as 16, via tandem conjugate addition/intramolecular alkylation. Professor Jørgensen has reported (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed . 2007, 46 , 9202) the double addition of 18 to the unsaturated aldehyde 17 to give 20. Earlier last year, Yujiro Hayashi of the Tokyo University of Science had shown (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 4922) that the double addition of the inexpensive 21 to 5 could, depending on conditions, be directed selectively to 22, 23, or 24. As illustrated by the conversion of 8 to 13, organocatalysis can be used to effect the enantioselective construction of polycarbocyclic products. The initial ring prepared in enantiomerically-pure form by organocatalysis can also set the chirality of a polycyclic system. Professor Corey has reported (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 10346) that Itsuno-Corey reduction of the prochiral diketone 25 led to the ketone 27. Cyclization followed by oxidation and reduction then delivered estrone methyl ether 28.

Abstract 3,4-Bis{[2-(methyl-phenyl-oxophosphanyl)-ethyl]phenyl-phosphanyl}pyrrolidines have be­en synthesized by Michael Addition from the corresponding methyl-phenyl-vinyl-phosphane oxides and 3,4-bis(phenylphosphino)pyrrolidines. For purification of the ligands palladium complexes were used and with the enantiomerically pure ligands Rh complexes have been pre­pared. The catalyst has 6 stereogenic centers. In the hydrogenation of Z-α-acetamidocinnamic acid all six stereogenic centers have an influence on the enantioselectivity. The influence is strongest from the C stereocenters of the pyrrolidine ring. Less important are the stereogenic centers on the coordinated P atoms. The influence of the stereocenters on the non-coordinated P = O groups is the least, but it is not negligible. The ee values obtained with the ligands containing P = O groups are much lower than those obtained with ligands which are substituted only with aryl groups. Ketones are hydrogenated with only low ee’s.

Synthetic Effort

Enantioselective approaches to the construction of four complex building blocks of the structurally intricate marine macrolide known as spongistatin 1 are presented. The first phase of the synthetic effort relies on a practical approach to a desymmetrized, enantiomerically pure spiroketal ring system incorporating rings A and B. Concurrently, the C17–C28 subunit, which houses one-fifth of the stereogenic centers of the target in the form of rings C and D, was assembled via a composite of stereocontrolled aldol condensations. Once arrival at the entire C1–C28 sector had been realized, routes were devised to provide two additional highly functionalized sectors consisting of C29–C44 and C38–C51. A series of subsequent transformations including cyclization of the E ring and hydroboration to afford the B-alkyl intermediate for the key Suzuki coupling to append the side chain took advantage of efficient stereocontrol. Ultimately, complete assembly and functionalization of the western EF sector of spongistatin was thwarted by an inoperative Suzuki coupling step intended to join the side chain to the C29–C44 sector, and later because of complications due to protecting groups, which precluded the complete elaboration of the late stage C29–C51 intermediate.

John W. Wong of Pfizer and Kurt Faber of the University of Graz used (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2014, 356, 1878) a wild-type enzyme to reduce the nitrile 1 to 2 in high ee. Takafumi Yamagami of Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma described (Org. Process Res. Dev. 2014, 18, 437) the practical diastereoselective coupling of the racemic acid 3 with the inexpensive pantolactone 4 to give, via the ketene, the ester 5 in high de. Takeshi Ohkuma of Hokkaido University devised (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 808) a Ru/Li catalyst for the enantioselective addition of in situ generated HCN to an N-acyl pyrrole 6 to give 7 in high ee. Yujiro Hayashi of Tohoku University found (Chem. Lett. 2014, 43, 556) that an aldehyde 8 could be condensed with formalin, leading in high ee to the masked aldehyde 9. Stephen P. Fletcher of the University of Oxford prepared (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 3288) the lactone 12 in high ee by adding an alkyl zirconocene, prepared from the alkene 11, to the unsaturated lactone 10. In a remarkable display of catalyst control, Masakatsu Shibasaki of the Institute of Microbial Chemistry and Shigeki Matsunaga of the University of Tokyo opened (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 9190) the racemic aziridine 13 with malonate 14 using a bimetallic catalyst. One enantiomer of the aziridine was converted specifically to the branched product 15 in high ee. The other enantiomer of the aziridine was converted to the regioisomeric opening product. Kimberly S. Peterson of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro used (J. Org. Chem. 2014, 79, 2303) an enantiomerically-pure organophosphate to selec­tively deprotect the bis ester 16, leading to 17. Chunling Fu of Zhejiang University and Shengming Ma of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry showed (Chem. Commun. 2014, 50, 4445) that an organocatalyst could mediate the brominative oxi­dation of 18 to 19. The ee of the product was easily improved via selective crystalliza­tion of the derived dinitrophenylhydrazone. James P. Morken of Boston College developed (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 2096) condi­tions for the allylation of an allylic acetate such as 20 with 21, to deliver the coupled product 22 with high maintenance of ee.
