Enantioselective preparation of 2,4-disubstituted azetidines

Chiral C2-symmetric N-benzylazetidines have been conveniently prepared from optically pure anti-1,3-diols without loss of enantiomeric purity. N- Debenzylation led to the corresponding N-unsubstituted azetidines, which were then subjected to palladium-catalysed coupling reactions with aryl bromides to afford chiral N-arylazetidines. (R,R)-N-Benzyl-2,4-dimethylazetidine has been employed in the synthesis of a new cyclopalladated complex, which can be used, for instance, as a chiral recognition agent for phosphorus ligands.

Chiral 1,2-bis(phosphetano)benzenes: Preparation and use in the Ru- catalyzed hydrogenations of carbonyl derivatives

Chiral 1,2-bis(phosphetano)benzenes are readily prepared from accessible, optically pure 1,3-diol cyclic sulfates. Their ruthenium complexes catalyze the enantioselective hydrogenations of functionalized carbonyls with moderate-to-high enantiomeric excesses. High levels of diastereo- and enantioselectivity are achieved, especially in the hydrogenation of β-diketones to the corresponding anti-1,3-diols.
