A new class of dirhodium carboxylate catalysts have been designed and synthesized from 2-fenchyloxy or 2-menthyloxy arylacetic acids which display excellent enantioselectivity across a range of transformations of α-diazocarbonyl compounds. The catalysts were successfully applied to enantioselective C-H insertion reactions of aryldiazoacetates and α-diazo-β-oxosulfones affording the respective products in up to 93 % ee with excellent trans diastereoselectivity in most cases. Furthermore, efficient desymmetrization in an intramolecular C-H insertion was achieved. In addition, these catalysts prove highly enantioselective for intramolecular aromatic addition with up to 88 % ee, and oxonium ylide formation and rearrangement with up to 74 % ee.
一类新型的二铑羧酸盐催化剂已由2-葑氧基或2-薄荷氧基芳基乙酸设计合成,这些催化剂在一系列α-重氮羰基化合物的转化反应中表现出优异的对映选择性。该催化剂已成功应用于芳基重氮乙酸酯和α-重氮-β-氧代砜的对映选择性C-H插入反应,在大多数情况下,相应产物的对映体过量率高达93%,具有优异的反式非对映选择性。此外,还实现了分子内C-H插入反应中的高效去对称化。此外,这些催化剂在分子内芳香族加成反应中表现出高达88%的对映体过量率,在氧鎓叶立德的形成和重排反应中表现出高达74%的对映体过量率,显示出高对映选择性。
