Research Abstract |
In order to develop a practical method for the construction of chiral molecules, we have designed a novel chiral system possessing multi-metal centers utilizing tartaric acid ester as a chiral auxiliary. A catalytic asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones possessing the N,N-diisopropylamide moiety to allylic alcohols was achieved to afford di- or trisubstituted isoxazolidines with excellent enantioselectivity of up to over 99% ee. The present asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition was applied to the synthesis for the (2S,4R)-4-hydroxyornithine derivative. The regio- and enantioselective hetero Diels-Alder reaction of nitroso compound with dienol has been realized utilizing a catalytic amount of tartaric acid ester as a chiral auxiliary and the corresponding cycloadduct was obtained in complete regioselectivity with excellent enantioselectivity up to 84% ee. The asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction of o-quinodimethanes, generated from benzocyclobutenols in situ, with fumaric acid esters was achieved by utilizing diisopropyl (R,R)-tartrate as a chiral auxiliary to afford the corresponding optically active 1,2-cis-substituted 1-hydroxy tetrahydronaphthalene derivatives with enantioselectivity up to 83% ee. The asymmetric addition of alkynylzinc reagents, prepared in situ from dialkylzinc and 1-alkynes, to nitrones was achieved by utilizing di(t-butyl) (R,R)-tartrate as a chiral auxiliary to afford the corresponding optically active (R)-α-substituted propargylic N-hydroxylamines. By the addition of product-like N-hydroxylamine, unprecedented enhancement of enantioselectivity was observed to afford the N-hydroxylamines up to 95% ee.
