Research Abstract |
1. We have found that the enantioselective intramolecular C-H insertion reaction of α-alkyl-α-diazoacetates catalyzed by dirhodium tetrakis [N-phthaloyl-(S)-tert-leucinate], Rh_2(S-PTTL)_4, proceeded at-78℃ to provide exclusively cis-2-arylcyclopentanecarboxylate with up to 97% ee. 2. The Rh_2(S-TFPTTL)_4-catalyzed aziridination of acyclic silyl enol ethers with [N-(2-nitrophenylsulfonyl) imino] phenyliodinane [NsN=IPh] followed by treatment with aq. TFA provided α-amino ketone derivatives in high yields and enantioselectivities of up to 95% ee. The effectiveness of the present catalytic method was demonstrated by the enantioselective synthesis of (-)-metazocine as well as (-)-ritodrine. The amination of silylketene acetals derived from methyl phenylacetates with NsN=IPh under the catalysis of Rh_2(S-TCPTTL)_4 afforded phenylglycine derivatives in high yields and with up to 99% ee. 3. We found that Rh_2(S-BPTPI)_4, a dirhodium (II) carboxamidate complex which incorporates (S)-3-(benzene-fused-phthalimido)-2-piperidinonate as bridging ligands, is a highly efficient catalyst for endo- and enantioselective HDA reactions. The Rh_2(S-BPTPI)_4 catalytic system provides a great flexibility in the nature of aldehyde substrates as well as the substitution pattern on Danishefsky-type and monooxygenated dienes, wherein essentially perfect diastereoselectivity and high levels of enantioselectivity ranging from 90 to 99% ee have been achieved. The effectiveness of the present protocol has been demonstrated by the synthesis of cyclic diarylheptanoid natural products such as (-)-centrolobine, calyxin L
