An original syn: The first enantioselective Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of chiral, enantioenriched secondary allylic boronic esters is described (see scheme; DME=dimethoxyethane, Bpin = pinacolboryl, dba = dibenzylideneacetone). Mechanistic studies show that the reactions proceed via γ-selective transmetalation followed by reductive elimination. The reaction provides the first independent confirmation that the transmetalation of boronic esters proceeds via a syn pathway. Copyright
Enantiopure tert-butyl(phenyl)phosphine oxide. Chirality-recognition ability and mechanism
Ribeiro, Nigel,Saigo, Kazuhiko
experimental part, p. 2704 - 2708 (2010/04/29)
When enantiopure tert-butyl(phenyl)phosphine oxide 1 was used as a resolving agent, it showed an acceptable to good chirality-recognition ability for several kinds of racemic carboxylic acids 2. A study on a chirality-recognition mechanism based on X-ray crystallographic analyses of the diastereomeric complexes of 2 with 1 revealed that the complex crystals consisted of helical columns and that 1 was not responsible for the formation of the helical column and occupied a void between the columns; although 1 interacted with 2 via a hydrogen bond to primarily form a pair with 2, the complex crystals were mainly stabilized by the accumulation of weak interactions, such as CH/π, π/π and CH...O interactions, between 1/1, 1/2 and 2/2.
