Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Azlactones by Bifunctional Thioureas with α‑Trifluoromethyl or Methyl Groups

Abstract: The asymmetric ring opening of azlactones via dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) is investigated by contrasting thioureas incorporating 1-arylethyl substituents against their more acidic trifluoromethylated analogs. All the catalysts under study outperform Takemoto’s thiourea because of the inclusion of an additional chiral center. However, the difference in yield and selectivity between the fluorinated and non-fluorinated catalysts is minimal. We explain this observation by analysis of calculated transition sta… Show more

“…Chen, Huang, and co-workers reported the enantioselective intramolecular [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of aldehydes via a sulfonium enamine intermediate (Scheme 52). 139 Initially, the authors proposed a pathway that starts with the α-iodination of the aldehyde enabled by the amine to form intermediate A.…”

“…Examples of organocatalysts that partially transfer a proton are thioureas, squaramides, and diols. [1][2][3][4][5][6] On the other hand, catalysts that completely transfer a proton to the substrate are Chiral Phosphoric Acids (CPAs), N-triflyl phosphoramides, chiral disulfonimides, and imidodiphosphate-type Brønsted acids. [7][8][9][10][11] Since the first report in 2004, chiral phosphoric acids have been establishing new trends with robust synthetic protocols and are undoubtedly the reference in Brønsted acid-type organocatalysis.…”
