An asymmetric vinylogous Mukaiyama–Michael reaction of α,β-unsaturated 2-acyl imidazoles catalyzed by chiral Sc(iii)– or Er(iii)–pybox complexes

Abstract: A highly diastereo- and enantioselective vinylogous Mukaiyama-Michael reaction of silyloxyfurans with α,β-unsaturated 2-acyl imidazoles catalyzed by either chiral Sc(iii) or Er(iii) complexes of a pybox ligand has been reported. The enantioenriched γ-butenolides formed in the reaction were further transformed into highly functionalized γ-lactones found as important structural frameworks in a wide range of biologically active natural products.

“…Preliminary work on this purpose was done by Doyle's group where the addition of enolates from 2‐diazo‐3‐butanoates 15 under Cu(II)‐box ligand catalysis afforded functionalized diazoacetoacetates 16 in good yields and enantioselectivities (Scheme a) . Following on this seminal report, γ‐butenolides 18 were prepared through the use of silyloxyfurans 17 as substrates under either Sc(III) or Er(III)‐indapybox catalysis (Scheme b) . Interestingly, by keeping the same chiral ligand, a simple switch in the metal‐center from Sc(III) to In(III) resulted in a complete reversal of the enantioselectivity.…”

“…[12] Following on this seminal report, γ-butenolides 18 were prepared through the use of silyloxyfurans 17 as substrates under either Sc(III) or Er(III)indapybox catalysis (Scheme 9b). [13] Interestingly, by keeping the same chiral ligand, a simple switch in the metal-center from Sc(III) to In(III) resulted in a complete reversal of the enantioselectivity. This could be observed during the synthesis of 1,5-diketones.…”

“…Singh et al . introduced an asymmetric Michael addition protocol catalyzed by Sc‐pybox or Er‐pybox complex . Here the Mukaiyama dienolates (silyloxyfurans) on conjugate addition with α,β‐unsaturated 2‐acyl imidazoles lead to the stereoselective synthesis of γ‐butenolides (Scheme ).…”
