RSC Adv 2024; 14:23423-23458. [PMID: 39055269 PMCID: PMC11270005 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra03914a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Baeyer-Villiger oxidation is a well-known reaction utilized for the synthesis of lactones and ester functionalities from ketones. Chiral lactones can be synthesized from chiral or racemic ketones by employing asymmetric Baeyer-Villiger oxidation. These lactones act as key intermediates in the synthesis of most of the biologically active natural products, their analogues, and derivatives. Various monooxygenases and oxidizing agents facilitate BV oxidation, providing a broad range of synthetic applications in organic chemistry. The variety of enzymatic and chemoselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidations and their substantial role in the synthesis of natural products i.e., alkaloids, polyketides, fatty acids, terpenoids, etc. (reported since 2018) have been summarized in this review article.

Abstract
This paper describes a concise, asymmetric and stereodivergent total synthesis of tacaman alkaloids. A key step in this synthesis is the biocatalytic Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone, which was developed to produce seven-membered lactones and establish the required stereochemistry at the C14 position (92 % yield, 99 % ee, 500 mg scale). Cis- and trans-tetracyclic indoloquinolizidine scaffolds were rapidly synthesized through an acid-triggered, tunable acyl-Pictet-Spengler type cyclization cascade, serving as the pivotal reaction for building the alkaloid skeleton. Computational results revealed that hydrogen bonding was crucial in stabilizing intermediates and inducing different addition reactions during the acyl-Pictet-Spengler cyclization cascade. By strategically using these two reactions and the late-stage diversification of the functionalized indoloquinolizidine core, the asymmetric total syntheses of eight tacaman alkaloids were achieved. This study may potentially advance research related to the medicinal chemistry of tacaman alkaloids.

Abstract
The advent of organocatalysis provided an additional option in every researcher's arsenal, towards the development of elegant and sustainable protocols for various organic transformations. Oxidation reactions are considered to be key in organic synthesis since oxygenated functionalities appear in many natural products. Hydrogen peroxide is categorized as a green oxidant, since its only by-product is water, offering novel opportunities for the development of green and sustainable protocols. In this review article, we intend to present recent developments in the field of the organocatalytic activation of hydrogen peroxide, providing useful insight into the applied oxidative protocols. At the same time, we will present some interesting mechanistic studies, providing information on the oxygen transfer processes.

Abstract
The first highly enantioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of quaternary carbon-containing cyclobutane-1,3-diones using chiral phosphoric acid catalysis and commercially available oxidants was reported. According to the structure of the substrates, two optimized reaction conditions were developed to afford the corresponding chiral tetronic acid products in ≤93% and ≤95% ee values. This reaction offers the first catalytic asymmetric approach to chiral 5,5-disubstituted tetronic acid derivatives. The synthetic potential of this method has been demonstrated by the formal asymmetric synthesis of (-)-vertinolide and the first catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of plakinidone B.

Abstract
A highly efficient catalytic asymmetric Rubottom-type oxidation is described. Using meta-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) as the oxidant and chiral calcium phosphate as the catalyst, the facile transformation enables direct hydroxylation of N-Boc oxindoles and β-ketoesters in high yields (up to 99 %) and in a highly enantioenriched fashion (up to >99 % ee). The application of the established method was demonstrated by the synthesis of a pharmaceutically important 3-hydroxyoxindole with excellent enantiocontrol.

Abstract
Although the power of chiral sulfinamide reagents in synthetic chemistry has long been recognized, methods for their synthesis are still auxiliary-based approaches which possess the disadvantages of poor atom economy and limited substrate universality. Due to the weak nucleophilicity of amides, it is more difficult to prepare chiral N-acylsulfinamides by traditional methods. Herein, we describe an example of catalytic asymmetric synthesis of N-acyl sulfinamides. In this work, N-acyl sulfenamides act as useful substrates, because of the indispensable N-H bond, which could form an efficient hydrogen bond with chiral phosphoric acid. H2 O2 (35%) was used as the terminal oxidant for preparation of sulfinamides in high yields and enantioselectivities, which could be easily derivatized to sulfoxides without loss of the enantioselectivity.

Abstract
A new type of chiral super Brønsted C-H acids, BINOL-derived phosphoryl bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl) methanes (BPTMs), were developed. As compared to widely utilized BINOL-derived chiral phosphoric acids (BPAs) and N-triflyl phosphoramides (NTPAs), BPTMs displayed much higher Brønsted acidity, resulting in dramatically improved activity and excellent enantioselectivity as demonstrated in catalytic asymmetric Mukaiyama-Mannich reaction, allylic amination, three-component coupling of allyltrimethylsilane with 9-fluorenylmethyl carbamate and aldehydes, and protonation of silyl enol ether. These new strong Brønsted C-H acids have provided a platform for expanding the chemistry of asymmetric Brønsted acid catalysis.

Abstract
Asymmetric access to γ-lactams is achieved via a cyclobutanone ring expansion using widely available (1S,2R)-1-amino-2-indanol for chiral induction. Mechanistic analysis of the key N,O-ketal rearrangement reveals a Curtin-Hammett scenario, which enables a downstream stereoinduction (up to 88:12 dr) and is corroborated by spectroscopic, crystallographic, and computational studies. In combination with an easy deprotection protocol, this operationally simple sequence allows the synthesis of a range of optically pure γ-lactams, including those bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. In addition, the formal synthesis of drug molecules baclofen, brivaracetam, and pregabalin further demonstrates the synthetic utility and highlights the general applicability of the presented method.

Herein, we report on the highly efficient and practical synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolinones directly from diverse aldehydes with excellent yields and enantioselectivity. Particularly, this protocol affords better enantiocontrol for aliphatic aldehydes (up to 99% yield, 97% ee), which always gave unsatisfactory results in the previous studies. Moreover, this catalytic system shows wide tolerance to different functional groups such as alkenyl, nitro and halogens. Most importantly, its practicability is well elucidated via the gram-scale synthesis of different types of products at 0.1 mol% catalyst loading and the simplified work-up procedure. To better understand the reaction pathway and origin of the enantioselectivity, DFT calculations were also performed.

Abstract
Low molecular weight synthetic peptides have been demonstrated to be effective catalysts for an increasingly wide array of asymmetric transformations. In many cases, these peptide-based catalysts have enabled novel multifunctional substrate activation modes and unprecedented selectivity manifolds. These features, along with their ease of preparation, modular and tunable structures, and often biomimetic attributes make peptides well-suited as chiral catalysts and of broad interest. Many examples of peptide-catalyzed asymmetric reactions have appeared in the literature since the last survey of this broad field in Chemical Reviews (Chem. Rev. 2007, 107, 5759-5812). The overarching goal of this new Review is to provide a comprehensive account of the numerous advances in the field. As a corollary to this goal, we survey the many different types of catalytic reactions, ranging from acylation to C-C bond formation, in which peptides have been successfully employed. In so doing, we devote significant discussion to the structural and mechanistic aspects of these reactions that are perhaps specific to peptide-based catalysts and their interactions with substrates and/or reagents.

Abstract
Since the emergence of pseudo-C2-symmetric chiral phosphoric acids (CPA), much work has been done to utilize these systems in stereoselective, organocatalytic processes. Despite the success in this field, reasonably basic substrates such as imines are often required to achieve appreciable activation. In order to access a wider variety of potential reaction partners, many related organocatalysts with enhanced Brønsted acidity have since been developed. Chiral disulfonimides (DSIs) have materialized as one such powerful class of organocatalysts and have been shown to expand the list of potential substrates to include aldehydes and ketones via Brønsted, Lewis, or bifunctional acid activation. This versatility renders DSIs amenable to an impressive scope of reaction types, typically with remarkable stereoselectivity induced by asymmetric counteranion-directed catalysis (ACDC). This review serves to provide a complete analysis of the successful applications, mechanistic insights, and unmet challenges exhibited to date in DSI-catalyzed and -assisted processes.

Abstract
Over the last 16 years, chiral phosphoric acids (CPAs) have been shown to be excellent asymmetric catalysts, very effectively used in constructing chiral molecules with high enantiocontrol. In 2010, Ishihara et al. discovered that chiral metal phosphate complexes (or salts) could be found in substantial quantities, as contaminates, in some reported CPA-catalyzed reactions (Hatano, M.; Moriyama, K.; Maki, T.; Ishihara, K. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 3823-3826). These metal phosphates were shown to actually catalyze the reactions in addition to CPAs. In this work, we have investigated in depth a reaction first reported to be catalyzed by CPAs based on a vaulted bis-phenanthrol (VAPOL) backbone. We have found that VAPOL metal phosphates were, in fact, superior catalysts for this reaction. Upon optimization, a wide substrate scope, low catalyst loading, and mild conditions could provide intermolecular imine amidation reactions producing chiral N,N'-aminal products in high yields and with excellent ee values (up to >99% yield, >99% ee).

Abstract
Synthesis of phosphorous-doped graphitic materials (P-Gc) using phytic acid as a precursor was done in a microwave oven in a cost- and time-effective green way. The material was used as a solid acid catalyst for microwave (MW)-assisted synthesis of β-ketoenamines and Baeyer-Villiger (BV) oxidation. In the case of BV oxidation, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was used as a green oxidant. For β-ketoenamines, in most cases, 100% conversion with an ∼95% yield was achieved in ethyl acetate medium. In solvent-free conditions, the yield of β-ketoenamines was ∼75%. A kinetic study suggested that the resonance stabilization of the positive reaction center happens in the transition state for β-ketoenamine synthesis. In BV oxidation, cyclic ketones were converted to their corresponding cyclic esters in good to high yields (∼80% yield) in a shorter reaction time (6-20 min). As per our knowledge, this is the first report of BV oxidation catalyzed by a heteroatom-doped graphitic material. For BV oxidation, the phosphoric acid functional groups present in P-Gc might increase the electrophilicity of the carbonyl group of the ketones to compensate for the weakness of H2O2 as a nucleophile and a spiro-bisperoxide intermediate has been identified in high-resolution mass spectrometry.

Abstract
How far can we push the limits in removing stereoelectronic protection from an unstable intermediate? We address this question by exploring the interplay between the primary and secondary stereoelectronic effects in the Baeyer-Villiger (BV) rearrangement by experimental and computational studies of γ-OR-substituted γ-peroxylactones, the previously elusive non-strained Criegee intermediates (CI). These new cyclic peroxides were synthesized by the peroxidation of γ-ketoesters followed by in situ cyclization using a BF3·Et2O/H2O2 system. Although the primary effect (alignment of the migrating C-Rm bond with the breaking O-O bond) is active in the 6-membered ring, weakening of the secondary effect (donation from the OR lone pair to the breaking C-Rm bond) provides sufficient kinetic stabilization to allow the formation and isolation of stable γ-hydroperoxy-γ-peroxylactones with a methyl-substituent in the C6-position. Furthermore, supplementary protection is also provided by reactant stabilization originating from two new stereoelectronic factors, both identified and quantified for the first time in the present work. First, an unexpected boat preference in the γ-hydroperoxy-γ-peroxylactones weakens the primary stereoelectronic effects and introduces a ∼2 kcal mol-1 Curtin-Hammett penalty for reacquiring the more reactive chair conformation. Second, activation of the secondary stereoelectronic effect in the TS comes with a ∼2-3 kcal mol-1 penalty for giving up the exo-anomeric stabilization in the 6-membered Criegee intermediate. Together, the three new stereoelectronic factors (inverse α-effect, misalignment of reacting bonds in the boat conformation, and the exo-anomeric effect) illustrate the richness of stereoelectronic patterns in peroxide chemistry and provide experimentally significant kinetic stabilization to this new class of bisperoxides. Furthermore, mild reduction of γ-hydroperoxy-γ-peroxylactone with Ph3P produced an isolable γ-hydroxy-γ-peroxylactone, the first example of a structurally unencumbered CI where neither the primary nor the secondary stereoelectronic effect are impeded. Although this compound is relatively unstable, it does not undergo the BV reaction and instead follows a new mode of reactivity for the CI - a ring-opening process.

Abstract
Cyclobutanones hold a privileged role in enantioselective desymmetrization because their inherent ring strain allows for a variety of unusual reactions to occur. Current strategies include α-functionalization, rearrangement, and C-C bond activation to directly convert cyclobutanones into a wide range of enantiomerically enriched compounds, including many biologically significant scaffolds. This Minireview provides an overview of state-of-the-art methods that generate complexity from prochiral cyclobutanones in a single operation.

Abstract
Classical kinetic resolution, parallel kinetic resolution and desymmetrization were achieved by asymmetric BV oxidation of 3-substituted and meso-disubstituted cycloketones.
Regioselectivity is a crucial issue in Baeyer–Villiger (BV) oxidation. To date, few reports have addressed asymmetric BV oxidation of 3-substituted cycloketones due to the high difficulty of controlling regio- and stereoselectivity. Herein, we report the asymmetric BV oxidation of 3-substituted and meso-disubstituted cycloketones with chiral N,N′-dioxide/Sc(iii) catalysts performed in three ways: classical kinetic resolution, parallel kinetic resolution and desymmetrization. The methodology was applied in the total and formal synthesis of bioactive compounds and natural products. Control experiments and calculations demonstrated that flexible and adjustable catalysts played a significant role in the chiral recognition of substrates.

Abstract
A new protocol for the construction of a crucial bicyclic lactone of prostaglandins using a stereocontrolled organocatalytic Baeyer-Villiger (B-V) oxidation was developed. The key B-V oxidation of a racemic cyclobutanone derivative with aqueous hydrogen peroxide has enabled an early-stage construction of a bicyclic lactone skeleton in high enantiomeric excess (up to 95 %). The generated bicyclic lactone is fully primed with two desired stereocenters and enabled the synthesis of the entire family of prostaglandins according to Corey's route. Furthermore, the reactivity and enantioselectivity of B-V oxidation of racemic bicyclic cyclobutanones were evaluated and 90-99 % ee was obtained, representing one of the most efficient routes to chiral lactones. This study further facilitates the synthesis of prostaglandins and chiral lactone-containing natural products to promote drug discovery.

Abstract
Catalysts that control stereochemistry are prized tools in chemical synthesis. When an effective catalyst is found, it is often explored for other types of reactions, frequently under the auspices of different mechanisms. As successes mount, a unique catalyst scaffold may become viewed as "privileged". However, the mechanistic hallmarks of privileged catalysts are not easily enumerated or readily generalized to genuinely different classes of reactions or substrates. We explored the concept of scaffold uniqueness with two catalyst types for an unusual atropisomer-selective cyclodehydration: (a) C2-symmetric chiral phosphoric acids and (b) phosphothreonine-embedded, peptidic phosphoric acids. Pragmatically, both catalyst scaffolds proved fertile for enantioselective/atroposelective cyclodehydrations. Mechanistic studies revealed that the determinants of often equivalent and high atroposelectivity are different for the two catalyst classes. A data-descriptive classification of these asymmetric catalysts reveals an increasingly broad set of catalyst chemotypes, operating with different mechanistic features, that creates new opportunities for broad and complementary application of catalyst scaffolds in diverse substrate space.

Abstract
The Dakin and Baeyer-Villiger (BV) oxidation reactions require addition of peroxides as oxidants and an acid or a base as a catalyst. Reaction times range from hours to days to obtain target products. Previously, we reported that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is spontaneously generated in water microdroplets without any added chemicals or applied electrical potential. Here, we report that the Dakin and BV reactions occur in modest yields within milliseconds in aqueous microdroplets at room-temperature without the addition of external peroxides and catalysts. H2O2 generation is the result of the special environment of the microdroplet surface, which promotes water autoionization. We find that increasing the content of water and decreasing the droplet size improve the product yield of the Dakin and BV reactions, supporting the contention that the amount of H2O2 generated in aqueous microdroplets could induce the two reactions and the reactions occur at or near the air-water interface of the microdroplet surface.

Abstract
Biologically inspired phosphothreonine (pThr)-embedded peptides that function as chiral Brønsted acid catalysts for enantioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidations (BV) of cyclobutanones with aqueous H2O2 are reported herein. Complementary to traditional BINOL-derived chiral phosphoric acids (CPAs), the functional diversity of the peptidic scaffold provides the opportunity for multiple points of contact with substrates via hydrogen bonding, and the ease of peptide synthesis facilitates rapid diversification of the catalyst structure, such that numerous unique peptide-based CPA catalysts have been prepared. Utilizing a hypothesis-driven design, we identified a pThr-based catalyst that contains an N-acylated diaminopropionic acid (Dap) residue, which achieves high enantioselectivity with catalyst loadings as low as 0.5 mol%. The power of peptide-based multi-site binding is further exemplified through reversal in the absolute stereochemical outcome upon repositioning of the substrate-directing group (ortho- to meta). Modifications to the i+3 residue (LDap to LPhe) lead to an observed enantiodivergence without inversion of any stereogenic center on the peptide catalyst, due to noncovalent interactions. Structure-selectivity and 1H-1H-ROESY studies revealed that the proposed hydrogen bonding interactions are essential for high levels of enantioinduction. The ability for the phosphopeptides to operate as multifunctional oxidation catalysts expands the scope of pThr catalysts and provides a framework for the future selective diversification of more complex substrates, including natural products.

Abstract
Controlling the regioselectivity of Baeyer-Villiger (BV) reactions remains an ongoing issue in organic chemistry, be it by synthetic catalysts or enzymes of the type Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs). Herein, we address the challenging problem of switching normal to abnormal BVMO regioselectivity by directed evolution using three linear ketones as substrates, which are not structurally biased toward abnormal reactivity. Upon applying iterative saturation mutagenesis at sites lining the binding pocket of the thermostable BVMO from Thermocrispum municipale DSM 44069 (TmCHMO) and using 4-phenyl-2-butanone as substrate, the regioselectivity was reversed from 99:1 (wild-type enzyme in favor of the normal product undergoing 2-phenylethyl migration) to 2:98 in favor of methyl migration when applying the best mutant. This also stands in stark contrast to the respective reaction using the synthetic reagent m-CPBA, which provides solely the normal product. Reversal of regioselectivity was also achieved in the BV reaction of two other linear ketones. Kinetic parameters and melting temperatures revealed that most of the evolved mutants retained catalytic activity, as well as thermostability. In order to shed light on the origin of switched regioselectivity in reactions of 4-phenyl-2-butanone and phenylacetone, extensive QM/MM and MD simulations were performed. It was found that the mutations introduced by directed evolution induce crucial changes in the conformation of the respective Criegee intermediates and transition states in the binding pocket of the enzyme. In mutants that destabilize the normally preferred migration transition state, a reversal of regioselectivity is observed. This conformational control of regioselectivity overrides electronic control, which normally causes preferential migration of the group that is best able to stabilize positive charge. The results can be expected to aid future protein engineering of BVMOs.

Abstract
Cyclic ketones bearing α‐quaternary stereocenters underwent efficient kinetic resolution using cyclohexanone monooxygenase (CHMO) from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. Lactones possessing tetrasubstituted stereocenters were obtained with high enantioselectivity (up to >99 % ee) and complete chemoselectivity. Preparative‐scale biotransformations were exploited in conjunction with a SmI2‐mediated cyclization process to access complex, enantiomerically enriched cycloheptan‐ and cycloctan‐1,4‐diols. In a parallel approach to structurally distinct products, enantiomerically enriched ketones from the resolution with an α‐quaternary stereocenter were used in a SmI2‐mediated cyclization process to give cyclobutanol products (up to >99 % ee).

Abstract
γ-Butenolides, γ-butyrolactones, and derivatives, especially in enantiomerically pure form, constitute the structural core of numerous natural products which display an impressive range of biological activities which are important for the development of novel physiological and therapeutic agents. Furthermore, optically active γ-butenolides and γ-butyrolactones serve also as a prominent class of chiral building blocks for the synthesis of diverse biological active compounds and complex molecules. Taking into account the varying biological activity profiles and wide-ranging structural diversity of the optically active γ-butenolide or γ-butyrolactone structure, the development of asymmetric synthetic strategies for assembling such challenging scaffolds has attracted major attention from synthetic chemists in the past decade. This review offers an overview of the different enantioselective synthesis of γ-butenolides and γ-butyrolactones which employ catalytic amounts of metal complexes or organocatalysts, with emphasis focused on the mechanistic issues that account for the observed stereocontrol of the representative reactions, as well as practical applications and synthetic potentials.
