The first general method for the enantioselective construction of all-carbon quaternary centers on cyclopentanones by enantioselective palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative allylic alkylation is described. Employing the electronically modified (S)-(p-CF3)3-t-BuPHOX ligand, α-quaternary cyclopentanones were isolated in yields up to >99% with ee's up to 94%. Additionally, in order to facilitate large-scale application of this method, a low catalyst loading protocol was employed, using as little as 0.15 mol % Pd, furnishing the product without any loss in ee.
本文描述了通过对映选择性钯催化的脱羧烯丙基烷基化反应,对环戊酮上的全碳季碳中心进行对映选择性构建的首个通用方法。使用电子修饰的(S)-(p-CF3)3-t-BuPHOX配体,可分离得到α-季碳环戊酮,产率高达>99%,对映体过量值(ee)高达94%。此外,为便于该方法的大规模应用,采用了低催化剂负载方案,仅使用低至0.15 mol%的钯,产物的对映体过量值没有任何损失。
