Abstract
Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Ketones bearing Stereogenic
Centers by Desulfitative Cross-Coupling of Thiol Esters and
Organostannanes
By Hao Li
An efficient synthesis of high enantiopurity N-protected α-amino ketones is described. Complementing other studies using boronic acids and thiol esters, this palladium-catalyzed, Cu(I) diphenylphosphinate-mediated coupling of α-amino thiol esters with aryl, heteroaryl, allyl and vinyl organostannanes gives N-protected α-amino ketones in high yields with high enantiopurity (in almost all cases) under mild and pH-neutral reaction conditions. Advantages of this new reaction compared to the related boronic acid system are the use of only 1.1 equiv of the organostannane reactant to complete the coupling reaction, and the viability of π-deficient heteroarylstannanes, which are superior to the corresponding boronic acids in overall coupling reactivity.
A stereocontrolled synthesis of α,α′-aminoalkoxy ketones is described. As a new approach to enantioenriched α-alkoxy ketones, this pH-neutral copper(I) thiophene-2-carboxylate-catalyzed cross-coupling of amino acid thiol esters and chiral α-(thiocarbamoyl)alkylstannanes gives α,α′-aminoalkoxy ketones in good to excellent yields with complete retention of configuration at the α-stannyl- and α-alkoxy-substituted stereocenters.
Thiol esters derived from 4-nitrothiophenol were coupled with chiral α-alkoxyalkylstannanes in the presence of stoichiometric Cu(I) thiophene-2-carboxylate to give α-sulfenylated ketones in moderate to good yields through a stereocontrolled O-S rearrangement. Compared with the α,α′-aminoalkoxy ketone synthesis using catalytic amounts of CuTC, this stoichiometric CuTC-mediated thiol ester-α-alkoxyalkylstannane cross-coupling/O-S rearrangement provided an efficient method for the construction of enantioenriched α-sulfenylated ketones. Using only CuTC in this alkylstannane coupling suggests a non-oxidative addition pathway.
