Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rate of advance in areas of science is seldom constant. Usually certain fields effloresce with activity because of the ~ealization that solutions are possible to long standing important problems. So it is now with asymmetric catalysis, a field which promises to change profoundly the strategic thinking of synthetic chemists. As this Report will show, reagents which can induce catalytic enantiocontrol of chemical transformations could represent the ultimate synthetic method. Nearly all synthetic strategies of complex molecules involve steps which require enantiocontrol and, in many cases, a specific catalytic transformation embodying enan tiocontrol has enormous advantages in terms of the rate and economy of the reaction. Because asymmetric catalysis is in a formative stage, workers with different backgrounds have joined the field. This Workshop had representatives with organometallic, organic, structural, kinetic, enzymatic, microbiological and industrial backgrounds. Each had his own perspective and this Report represents a consensus of this group of eleven people. The result is probably as compre hensive and balanced a view of the subject as is possible at present. It is hoped that those who have until now had but a glancing interest in asymmetric catalysis will find this Report a useful indication of its present state. We believe that asymmetric catalysis will have an increasing impact on the development of chemistry and will eventually dominate much of synthetic and industrial chemistry.

Book Applications of Chiral Anions in Asymmetric Catalysis

Download or read book Applications of Chiral Anions in Asymmetric Catalysis written by Gregory Lawrence Hamilton and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The synthesis of molecules with control over their three-dimensional configuration, known as absolute stereochemistry, is one of the highest goals of synthetic organic chemists. As is so often the case, we strive to reach the facility and efficiency with which Nature achieves this goal. Fortunately, the chemist's imagination allows us to envision nearly unlimited possibilities for new modes of catalysis. In this dissertation, I discuss one branch of asymmetric catalysis that has in a short time progressed from relative obscurity to the forefront of the ever-expanding set of reactions that can be achieved stereoselectively. The basis of this strategy is ion pairing between chiral anionic species and cationic catalysts or intermediates. Chapter 1 discusses the background of the field. In particular, I examine what factors and precedent led the chemical community to recognize the potential of chiral anions to influence reaction stereoselectivity. Many different contributions skirted around the issue before people began to realize that this type of catalysis represents a distinct area that can be uniquely applicable to certain classes of transformations. The suddenness of this recognition is all the more fascinating because chiral cationic species have used in catalysis for some time. Our laboratory's first endeavor in the arena of chiral anions in documented in Chapter 2. This study dovetailed from the group's work in the area of homogeneous gold catalysis. Because many gold catalysts bear a positive charge, we questioned whether a chiral counteranion could be used to induce asymmetry. We were interested in pursuing this strategy because the traditional approach of using chiral ligands bound to the metal was not always sufficient to obtain high enantioselectivity in gold catalyzed reactions. In fact, a chiral phosphate counteranion was found to mediate certain gold-catalyzed reactions with vastly superior degrees of stereoselectivity. Additionally, chiral ligands could work cooperatively with the chiral counteranion to enable particularly challenging asymmetric reactions. After this, we moved from metal-catalyzed reactions to transformations where the chiral anion could form an ion pair with a cationic reaction intermediate. Based on some precedent, we investigated an asymmetric ring opening of meso-aziridinium ions. This transformation is ideal for testing out the ability of chiral anions because the mechanism essentially dictates that any observed asymmetric induction is a result of an ion pair interaction. Furthermore, it is a type of reaction that is not readily amenable to other forms of asymmetric catalysis because the prochiral intermediate does not possess any basic sites. Here again, a chiral phosphate performed well as a chiral counteranion, promoting the ring opening with alcohol nucleophiles in very high enantioselectivity. The method was also modified to enable an asymmetric opening of episulfonium ions. The final chapter documents a number of different efforts aimed at achieving asymmetric substitutions and additions at all-carbon electrophiles. By this time chiral anions were well established as catalysts for additions to several classes of heteroatom-stablized cationic electrophiles. However, additions to carbocations or their functional equivalents were largely out of reach. Our hypothesis was that catalysts capable of interacting covalently with carbon electrophiles could facilitate the asymmetric substitution process. Thus we examined a variety of polarizable anionic and neutral catalyst structures. While our ideas for substitutions of carbon-centered leaving groups were generally unsuccessful in producing a highly enantioselective reaction, the same concepts did lead to an asymmetric addition of amine nucleophiles to dienes. Studies of the mechanism suggested that the catalyst did in fact add covalently to the electrophile before being displaced, thereby validating our original thinking on the subject.

Book excerpt: Nowadays, chirality is widely accepted as an important factor in molecular recognition processes and the biological activity of many pharmaceutical drugs and agrochemicals; this is confirmed by the continuous need for synthetic methods which lead to single or enriched enantiomers of such compounds. By presenting a review of the various and more recently developed approaches for both metal-transition and organocatalysis, this volume describes the development of “greener” asymmetric reactions which preserve stereoselectivity. The author summarizes the impressive amount of research that has been gathered within this field into three chapters focusing on: i)the search of alternative catalysts, ii) alternative solvents, and iii) alternative synthetic strategies and processes. For each topic, the fundamentals and some valuable applications are discussed.

Book Catalytic Asymmetric Reactions of Conjugated Nitroalkenes

Download or read book Catalytic Asymmetric Reactions of Conjugated Nitroalkenes written by Irishi Namboothiri and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-08-13 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nitroalkenes have often been referred to as "synthetic chameleons" owing to their reactivity, synthetic utility and biological significance. In the last two decades, the reactivity of nitroalkenes as substrates in diverse catalytic asymmetric transformations has been of tremendous interest. This is due to the powerful electron withdrawing and co-ordinating ability of the nitro group and the amenability of the nitro group to undergo a wide variety of synthetic transformations. Although numerous original articles and reviews have appeared in the literature, a monograph providing comprehensive coverage of this topic was conspicuous by its absence. In the light of the above, this book features: A systematic, up-to-date, in-depth and well organized compilation, spread over twelve chapters, of various catalytic asymmetric reactions of nitroalkenes with diverse substrates reported till date Wide coverage of reactions such as Michael additions, Friedel-Crafts reactions, cycloadditions, asymmetric reductions, multi-component and cascade reactions as well as other miscellaneous reactions Various chiral organo-, metal- and even bio-catalysts involved in the stereoselective synthesis of multi-functional adducts via catalytic asymmetric reactions of nitroalkenes Schemes and figures detailing all the reagents, reaction conditions and product profile Mechanistic details, including transition state models, which will be useful for effective catalytic design This book will be an invaluable resource for those who are working in the area of asymmetric catalysis and synthetic methodologies"--
