Enantiospecific Photochemical Norrish/Yang Type II Reaction of Nonbiaryl Atropchiral α-Oxoamides in Solution—Axial to Point Chirality Transfer

Abstract: Alpha-oxoamides 1 with o-tert-butyl substitution on the N-phenyl moiety were found to be stable axially chiral atropisomers. These axially chiral alpha-oxoamides undergo enantiospecific photochemical gamma-Hydrogen abstraction in CHCl(3) to yield beta-lactams with high enantioselectivity (e.r. approximately 90:10) in solution. The extent of enantioselectivity was found to be dependent on the reaction temperature.

“…Sivaguru and co-workers reported an atropselective Norrish/ Yang type-II reaction of atropisomeric α-oxoamides 460 in solution (Scheme 130). 285 The reaction proceeded from an nπ* excited state of the carbonyl compound that initiated γ-hydrogen abstraction from the N−Me substituent resulting in a 1,4-diradical. This diradical subsequently cyclized leading to chirally enriched β-lactam photoproduct 461.…”

“…Benzoyl formoyl chloride was synthesized by reaction of benzoyl formic acid and dichloromethyl methyl ether in dichloromethane using the previously reported procedure (Ayitou et al 2009). Similar to other failed attempts, a black mixture was obtained after a certain time.…”

“…In addition to phthalimide, succinimide and benzotriazole have been also used as the component for the N‐Mannich reaction ( 188 , 190 ). Reduction of the bases with NaBH 4 afforded the monomethylated products ( 189 , 191 ) . The intermediate 192 , which was prepared through an intramolecular N‐Mannich reaction, was reduced by Et 3 SiH to give the methylated product 193 .…”
