Asymmetric Catalysis of Diels–Alder Reactions with in Situ Generated Heterocyclic ortho-Quinodimethanes

Liu, Yankai, Nappi, Manuel, Arceo, Elena, Vera, Silvia, Melchiorre, Paolo·2011·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

The Diels-Alder reaction is probably the most powerful technology in the synthetic repertoire for single-step constructions of complex chiral molecules. The synthetic power of this fundamental pericyclic transformation has greatly increased with the emergence of asymmetric catalytic variants, and research aimed at further expanding its potential is still exciting and fascinating the chemical community. Here, we document the first asymmetric catalytic Diels-Alder reaction of in situ generated heterocyclic ortho-quinodimethanes (oQDMs), reactive diene species that have never before succumbed to a catalytic approach. Asymmetric aminocatalysis, that uses chiral amines as catalysts, is the enabling strategy to induce the transient generation of indole-, pyrrole- or furan-based oQDMs from simple starting materials, while directing the pericyclic reactions with nitroolefins and methyleneindolinones toward a highly stereoselective pathway. The approach provides straightforward access to polycyclic heteroaromatic compounds, which would be difficult to synthesize by other catalytic methods, and should open new synthetic pathways to complex chiral molecules using nontraditional disconnections.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
