Rhodium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Synthesis of Indanones:  Development of a New “Axially Chiral” Bisphosphine Ligand

Abstract: A rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric isomerization of racemic alpha-arylpropargyl alcohols to beta-chiral indanones has been developed. High enantioselectivity has been realized by the use of a newly developed axially chiral bisphosphine ligand. This ligand is unique in the sense that its axial chirality is fixed to a single configuration upon complexation to a transition metal due to other chiral axes existing within the same molecule.

“…The same research group has proposed another asymmetric isomerization of racemic alcohols 161 leading to the formation of 1-indanones 162 [77]. In this reaction, β-chiral 1-indanones 162 were obtained by isomerization of racemic α-arylpropargyl alcohols 161 in the presence of a rhodium catalyst.…”

“…Diphosphanes with general structure A (Scheme 1) employing a 1,1Ј-biphenyl-2,2Ј-diyl bridge have attracted much interest as supporting ligands in numerous transition-metalcatalyzed transformations, [1][2][3] including Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions, [4] amination reactions, [5] Mizoroki-Heck reactions, [6,7] hydroaminations, [8] hydrogenations, [9] additions, [10][11][12][13][14] N-heterocyclizations [15] and others. [16][17][18] Not only the employed phosphane substituents but also the size and electronic properties of the substituents at the 6-and 6Ј-position affect the catalytic activity of the derived transition metal complexes.…”

“…[3,19,20] In conjunction with our recent efforts to synthesize 2,2Ј,6,6Ј-tetraphosphanylbiphenyls [21] we gained access to valuable 2,2Ј,6,6Ј-tetrasubstituted biphenyls that allow the syntheses of new members of the above-mentioned class of diphosphanes. Comparisons between different spectra, especially 13 C{ 1 H}-DEPT90 data sets, allowed rough quantitation of compound ratios in the reaction mixtures. These diphos-Therefore, to find optimal conditions for complete formation of 10 (but at the same time avoiding degradation of the solvent and of dilithiated species 10) this reaction was monitored by sampling small quantities from a reaction mixture of 7 and 3 equiv.…”

“…8 Bond distances and angles are similar to those reported for analogous cis-and trans-complexes, 8 including those containing chelating bisphosphines. 9,10 The B-O bond distances are typical for four coordinate borates containing catechol groups. There does not appear to be any significant interaction of the arylspiroborate anion and the rhodium center.…”
