Azomethine Ylides-Versatile Synthons for Pyrrolidinyl-Heterocyclic Compounds

Siva S. Panda et al.

Summary: Azomethine ylides are frequently used three-atom components in nitrogen-based [3+2]-cycloaddition reactions with a variety of unsaturated 2 pi-electron components. These reactions demonstrate remarkable regio- and stereoselectivity and have attracted organic chemists' interest in constructing diverse heterocycles with four contiguous stereogenic centers. This review article summarizes the significant [3+2]-cycloaddition reactions of azomethine ylides with various olefinic, unsaturated 2 pi-electron components (acyclic, alicyclic, heterocyclic, and exocyclic ones) reported in the past two decades.

Enantioselective synthesis of tetrasubstituted allenes via addition/ arylation tandem reaction of 2-activated 1,3-enynes

Yongyan Zhang et al.

Summary: We developed a new class of multifunctional chiral guanidine/Pd(0) catalyst system for 1,4-addition/arylation tandem reaction. Tetra-substituted allenes were easily obtained through three-component one-pot transformations of acyclic or cyclic 2-activated 1,3-enynes, malonates, and halobenzenes under mild reaction conditions. High levels of yield and enantioselectivity were achieved using readily available acyclic guanidine-amides in the construction of stereogenic center and axis. Mechanistic studies suggest that the guanidine/Pd(0) collaboration has obvious synergism to both base-dominated conjugate addition and Pd(0)-dominated Heck-type reaction.

Enantioselective Photochemical Carbene Insertion into C-C and C-H Bonds of 1,3-Diketones by a Guanidine-Amide Organocatalyst

Shiyang Li et al.

Summary: A visible-light-induced enantioselective free carbene transfer reaction of alpha-diazoesters with 1,3-diketones is achieved using a chiral bifunctional guanidine-amide organocatalyst. Different steric hindrances of alpha-diazoesters allow for selective insertion of free carbene into the C-C or C-H bonds of 1,3-diketones. The reaction enables the synthesis of 1,4-diketones with a quaternary carbon chiral center or chiral 2-substituted-1,3-diketones in good enantioselectivities. A stepwise triplet free carbene coupling pathway is suggested based on control experiments and DFT calculation. The high enantioselectivities are proposed to originate from hydrogen-bond and electrostatic interactions of the catalyst.

Lorenzo Serusi et al.

Summary: The asymmetric synthesis of novel 3-substitued isoindolinones was achieved using the asymmetric nitro-Mannich reaction and the in situ cyclization reaction. High enantioselectivities and yields were obtained in the presence of a neutral bifunctional organocatalyst.

Eduardo Garcia-Minguens et al.

Summary: This study investigated the enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between (Z)-nitroalkenes bearing a masked amino group in the beta-position and imino esters, using various chiral ligands and silver salts. The absolute configuration of the reaction products was determined through NMR experiments and electronic circular dichroism (ECD), leading to the generation of the corresponding cis-2,3-diaminoprolinate in excellent enantiomeric ratio.

Asymmetric Sonogashira C(sp3)-C(sp) bond coupling enabled by a copper(i) complex of a new guanidine-hybrid ligand

Jinzhao Li et al.

Summary: A new type of chiral nitrogen-donor hybrid ligand has been developed for Cu(I)-catalyzed asymmetric Sonogashira C(sp(3))-C(sp) cross-coupling. The ligand, in combination with CuI, enables efficient coupling between diverse racemic secondary alkyl bromides and terminal alkynes. The guanidine and pyridine subunits, linked by an amide linker, play a crucial role in adjusting the redox ability of copper species, enabling efficient radical generation from alkyl bromides. This study provides new tools for copper salt-involved asymmetric radical transformations.
