Iridium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Ring Opening of Alkenyl Oxiranes by Unactivated Carboxylic Acids

Abstract: An iridium-catalyzed enantioselective ring-opening of alkenyl oxiranes by unactivated carboxylic acids has been developed. The reaction undergoes at ambient conditions between an in-situ-generated chiral iridium-π-allyl complex and carboxylic acids to provide rapid access to valuable alkenyl diols in high yields. The synthetic utility of this method is demonstrated by the elaboration of the products into various medium and large ringsized compounds that are part of biologically relevant molecules.

“…The relationship of OH-7 and OH-8 was assigned to be erythro by comparison of NMR data with those for triharzianin C [ 19 ]. Although the chemical shifts of C-1, C-2, and C-3 in 2 were the same as those of ( S )-but-3-ene-1,2-diol [ 23 ], the relative configuration of OH-2 could not be confirmed due to the existence of only one chiral carbon atom (C-2) in this moiety. Thus, compound 2 was named (3 E ,5 E ,11 E )-trideca-3,5,11-trien-1,2,7,8-tetraol, and its structural formula was HOCH 2 CH(OH)CH=CHCH=CHCH(OH)CH(OH)CH 2 CH 2 CH=CHCH 3 .…”

“…In 2022, Majumdar et al had described the iridium-catalyzed reaction of racemic vinyl oxiranes with carboxylic acids by employing the (S)-configured BINOL-phosphoramidite-olefin L35 as ligand (Scheme 68). [104] The reaction of racemic vinyl oxirane rac-97 (1.5 equiv) with benzoic acid (1 equiv) in the presence of [Ir(COD)Cl] 2 (1 mol %) and L35 (4 mol %) in THF at room temperature afforded the allylic benzoate 145 a with 58 % ee. Surprisingly, the ee-value of 145 a increased to 80 % through the application of four equivalents of the vinyl oxirane.…”

“…Vinylcyclopropanes are easy to access and, therefore, highly useful substrates for important synthetic transformations. Carboxylic acids are ubiquitous, commercially abundant, structurally diverse, inexpensive, stable compounds and, therefore, quite useful substrates for asymmetric transformations . Development of catalytic asymmetric strategies involving vinylcyclopropanes and carboxylic acids for the synthesis of a valuable compound class would be highly desirable.…”
