A protocol of highly regio- and enantioselective copper-catalyzed hydroacylation of the non-terminal C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond in 1,1-disubstituted terminal allenes with anhydrides has been developed. Both aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic anhydrides are applicable to the efficient construction of all carbon quarternary centers connected with a versatile C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond and a useful ketone functionality. The synthetic potentials of the enantioenriched products have also been demonstrated. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to explain the steric outcome of the products: the hydroacylation proceeds through a six-membered transition state and the ligand-substrate steric interactions account for the observed enantioselectivity although the chiral ligand is far away from the to-be-genetated chiral center.
已开发出一种高度区域和对映选择性的铜催化方法,用于1,1-二取代末端丙二烯中与酸酐相连的非末端C=C键的氢酰化反应。芳族和脂肪族羧酸酐均可用于高效构建与通用C=C键和有用的酮官能团相连的全碳季碳中心。还展示了对映体富集产物的合成潜力。进行了密度泛函理论(DFT)计算以解释产物的空间结果:氢酰化反应通过六元过渡态进行,尽管手性配体远离即将生成的手性中心,但配体-底物空间相互作用解释了观察到的对映选择性。
