Direct Catalytic Asymmetric Addition of Alkylnitriles to Aldehydes with Designed Nickel-Carbene Complexes

Akira Saito et al.

Summary: The strategic use of a sterically demanding Ni-II pincer carbene complex has enabled high enantioselectivity in the direct catalytic asymmetric addition of acetonitrile to aldehydes, resulting in highly enantioenriched beta-hydroxynitriles. This highly atom-economical process offers a promising pathway for utilizing inexpensive acetonitrile as a C2 building block in practical synthetic toolbox for asymmetric catalysis.

Enantioselective Formation of Quaternary Centers by Allylic Alkylation with First-Row Transition-Metal Catalysts

Lars Susse et al.

Summary: Asymmetric allylic alkylation using transition metals offers an efficient strategy for generating quaternary stereocenters. Recent advancements have shown the potential of first-row transition metals as a cost-effective and potentially equally efficient alternative. This review highlights the use of different transition metals for catalyzing reactions with nucleophiles to assemble quaternary stereocenters.

Tuning Orbital Symmetry of Iridium Nitrenoid Enables Catalytic Diastereo- and Enantioselective Alkene Difunctionalizations

Suhyeon Kim et al.

Summary: The article discusses the use of the Cp*Ir(kappa(2)-LX) system as a catalyst for alkene difunctionalization via a nitrenoid-mediated pathway, with a focus on tuning the orbital symmetry of key intermediates to improve catalytic activity. Through systematic engineering, a new catalyst system capable of stepwise nitrenoid transfer was developed, allowing for diastereoselective production of difunctionalized lactams with various nucleophiles. This mechanistic platform also enabled the development of asymmetric methods for introducing two-point chirality in (oxyallcyl)lactam products with excellent enantioselectivity.

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Unprotected β2-Amino Acids

Chendan Zhu et al.

Summary: A scalable catalytic approach for enantiopure and unmodified beta(2)-amino acids was developed, utilizing a confined imidodiphosphorimidate (IDPi) catalyst and a silylated aminomethyl ether. Both aromatic and aliphatic beta(2)-amino acids can be obtained in high yields, purity, and enantioselectivity. Mechanistic studies suggest the reaction proceeds via silylium-based asymmetric counteranion-directed catalysis (Si-ACDC) with a proposed transition state for explaining enantioselectivity based on density functional theory calculations.

Ligand-Dependent Regiodivergent Enantioselective Allylic Alkylations of α-Trifluoromethylated Ketones

Yi Zhu et al.

Summary: The asymmetric introduction of the CF3 unit can modify pharmacokinetic properties and slow metabolic degradation in medicinal chemistry. Computational studies show that the choice of ligand in a designed palladium-complex system regulates the regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of the asymmetric allylic alkylation of alpha-CF3 ketones and Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts.
