New chiral P,N-hybrid aryl phosphites have been obtained by one-step phosphorylation of amino and imino alcohols. Complexation of the new ligands with [Rh(CO) 2 Cl] 2 , [Pd(COD)Cl 2 ] and [Pd(allyl)Cl] 2 was found to give chelate complexes [Rh(CO)Cl(η 2 -P ʝ N)], [PdCl 2 (η 2 -P ʝ N)] and [Pd-(allyl)(η 2 -P ʝ N)] + Cl − , respectively. With these new P,N-ligands, up to 82% ee enantioselectivity was achieved in the [a] The new P,N-bidentate aryl phosphites were synthesized by one-step phosphorylation of the corresponding amino and imino alcohols with bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl) chlorophosphite.They divide into two groups: ligands 3aϪ3f, possessing sp 3 -hybridized nitrogen atoms, and ligands 3gϪ3m, which have sp 2 -hybridized nitrogen atoms. All the compounds 3aϪm are soluble in conventional organic solvents and stable under dry conditions for several months. On treatment with [Rh(CO) 2 Cl] 2 , their neutral carbonyl(chloro)Rh I complexes were obtained.The ν(CO) and 1 J P,Rh parameters in their IR and 31 P NMR spectra act as sensitive indicators, which characterise the mode of complexation of the P,N-ligands and allow the π-acceptor ability of the phosphorus centre and the degree of electronic non-symmetry of the ligands to be estimated. [13Ϫ15] In general, ligands 3aϪ3m give chelate complexes. Thus, the
Thevinone is the key starting material for preparations of thevinols and orvinols, the well‐known opioid receptor ligands. Some of them have found applications both in human medicine and veterinary. Herein we disclose the convenient multigram‐scale preparation of 21,21,21‐trifluorothevinone that opens the straightest way to the relative C(21)‐fluorinated thevinols and orvinols, the putative opiod receptor ligands as well as the valuable objects for investigations of the structure‐activity relationship in the thevinol/orvinol series. 21,21,21‐Trifluorothevinone was prepared by a reaction of the thebaine‐based [4+2]‐adduct of acroleine with CF3SiMe3 followed by the Swern oxidation of the fluorinated alcohol thus obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
