[3,3] Sigmatropic Rearrangement of Boron‐Containing Allyl Alcohols: Synthesis of Allyl Addition Reagents

Abstract: Enantiomerically pure reagents for allyl additions were prepared by [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangements (see scheme) followed by a separation of the diastereoisomers. The highly stable allylboronic esters with a stereogenic center α to a boron atom were used to synthesize Z‐configured homoallylic alcohols with an enantiomeric excess >94 %.

“…For convenience during the work‐up procedure, the crude products were directly reduced with LiAlH 4 to give the corresponding diols (i.e., 15 and 16 , from 13 and 14 , respectively). The overall yields were moderate (31–65 %), but the enantioselectivity was relatively low compared to that obtained with unsubstituted reagents 4 and 5 (Scheme , R 1 = H) 5a,5d. In contrast to this moderate enantioselectivity, the allyl addition showed complete ( Z ) selectivity (>95 % as detected by NMR spectroscopy), which can be attributed to the pseudo‐axial position of the α substituent in transition states TSA and TSB .…”

“…124 The absolute configuration of the new reagents was assigned by means of chemical correlation or X-ray structure analysis. The reaction of diastereomers (3S)-and (3R)-20 with benzaldehyde was performed in good yield (78− 91%) and enantiomeric excess (>94% ee).…”

“…[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] We have recently demonstrated that highly stable reagents of the general type 1 or 2 are readily available via a Johnson rearrangement of the corresponding boron-substituted allyl alcohols. [15][16][17] The derivatives are easy to handle and store, and add highly selectively to a number of aldehydes giving either homoallylic alcohol 3 or 4 with the enantiomeric excess ranging from 92 to >99% (Scheme 1). The formation of the Z-double bond and the configuration of the newly formed stereogenic centers were unambiguously proven by means of chemical correlation.…”
