Readily Available Phosphine−Phosphoramidite Ligands for Highly Efficient Rh-Catalyzed Enantioselective Hydrogenations

Abstract: A new family of air- and moisture-stable phosphine-phosphoramidite ligands (PEAPhos) has been prepared from commercially available and inexpensive (S)-alpha-phenylethylamine through a two- or three-step transformation and successfully applied in the rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenations of a variety of substrates, in which up to 99.9% ee was obtained for all of these kinds of substrates.

“…Compound 1, which contained a chiral primary amine motif as a building block for the hexadentate ligand, was easily prepared from (S)-1-phenylethanamine in moderate yield (Scheme 1). [9] Simultaneously, two different chiral aldehydes, 3-hydroxy-4-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)-2-naphthaldehyde and bi-2-hydroxy-3-naphthaldehyde, were prepared from chiral BINOL in high yields (Scheme 2). [10] Then the five similar ligands (L1-L5) that contained both axial and sp 3 -central chirality were prepared by Schiff base condensation of chiral primary-amine-based phosphine ligand 1 and different BINOL-derived aldehydes (2 a or 3 a, 50-62 % total isolated yield; also see the Supporting Information).…”

“…Considering the structural similarity between 1-ferrocenylethylamine and 1-phenylethylamine and low cost of chiral 1-phenylethylamine, we then surmised that 1-phenylethylamine-derived phosphine-phosphoramidite ligand (abbreviated as PEAPhos, 36) may be a good alternative to ferrocene-based PPFAPhos ligands [26].…”

“…Although high efficiency of PPFAPhos is observed in the Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of various enamides, high cost in the tedious synthesis of this ligand class has seriously prevented its practical application in asymmetric catalysis. To overcome this shortcoming, in 2006, we developed a new class of phosphinephosphoramidite ligands, PEAPhos (45), bearing a similar structure to PPFAPhos (Figure 9.11) [48]. PEAPhos can be easily prepared from commercially available and inexpensive (S)-a-phenylethylamine through a two-step transformation.…”
