Abstract
An organocatalytic enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole-containing tetrasubstituted α-amino allenoates, exhibiting both axial and central chirality, has been accomplished via cascade dearomatization-cyclization reaction. The γ-addition to β,γ-alkynyl-α-imino esters provides a library of densely substituted highly enantioenriched allenes in high yields and excellent stereoselectivities. In addition, the scope of this methodology has been extended to tryptophol as well. A scale-up reaction and synthetic transformations of the products were performed to demonstrate the practical usefulness of this approach.

Zheng JY, Wang F, Zhang Y, Zheng Z, Wu JH, Ren X, Su Z, Chen W, Wang T. Novel Stereo-Induction Pattern in Pudovik Addition/Phospha-Brook Rearrangement Towards Chiral Trisubstituted Allenes. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202403707. [PMID: 38520267 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202403707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Despite the significance of chiral allene skeletons in catalysis, organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry et al., there is a scarcity of reports on axially chiral allenyl phosphorus compounds. Here, we disclosed an efficient and straightforward cascade reaction between ethynyl ketones and phosphine oxides, resulting in a broad array of trisubstituted allenes incorporating a phosphorus moiety in high yields with excellent stereoselectivities facilitated by peptide-mimic phosphonium salt (PPS) catalysis, Additionally, comprehensive series of mechanistic experiments have been conducted to elucidate that this cascade reaction proceeds via an asymmetric Pudovik addition reaction followed by a subsequent phospha-Brook rearrangement that occurs concomitantly with kinetic resolution, representing a stereospecific rearrangement and protonation process facilitating central-to-axial chirality transfer in a cascade manner. We anticipate that our research will pave the way for a promising exploration of novel stereo-induction pattern in the Pudovik addition/phospha-Brook rearrangement cascade reaction.

Abstract
In the vast majority of top-selling pharmaceutical and industrial products, phenolic structural motifs are highly prevalent. Non-functionalized simple phenols serve as building blocks in the synthesis of value-added chemicals. It is worth mentioning that lignin, being the largest renewable biomass source of aromatic building blocks in nature, mainly consists of phenolic units, which enable the production of structurally diverse phenols. Given their remarkable applicability in the chemical value chain, many efforts have been devoted to increasing the molecular complexity of the phenolic scaffold. Among the key techniques, direct functionalization of Csp2-H is a powerful tool, enabling the construction of new Csp2-C bonds in an economical and atomic manner. Herein we present and summarize the large plethora of direct Csp2-H functionalization methods that enables scaffold diversification of simple, unprotected phenols, leading to the formation of new Csp2-C bonds. In this review article, we intend to summarize the contributions that appeared in the literature mainly in the last 5 years dealing with the functionalization of unprotected phenols, both catalytic and non-catalytic. Our goal is to highlight the key findings and the ongoing challenges in the stimulating and growing research dedicated to the development of new protocols for the valorization of phenols.

Abstract
Compared with well-developed construction of Csp2-Csp2 atropisomers, the synthesis of Csp2-N atropisomers remains in its infancy, which is recognized as both appealing and challenging. Herein, we achieved the first organocatalyzed asymmetric synthesis of Csp2-N atropisomers by formal Csp2-O amination. With the aid of a suitable acid, 3-alkynyl-3-hydroxyisoindolinones reacted smoothly with 1-methylnaphthalen-2-ols to afford a wide range of atropisomers by selective formation of the Csp2-N axis. Particularly, both the kinetic (Z)-products and the thermodynamic (E)-products could be selectively formed. Furthermore, the rarely used combination of two chiral Brønsted acid catalysts achieved excellent enantiocontrol, which is intriguing and unusual in organocatalysis. Based on control experiments and DFT calculations, a cascade dehydration/addition/rearrangement process was proposed. More importantly, this work provided a new plat-form for direct atroposelective construction of the chiral Csp2-N axis.

Abstract
We report a Cu(I)-Ph-BPE-catalyzed asymmetric vinylogous Mannich reaction of β,γ-alkynyl-α-ketimino esters with β,γ-unsaturated N-acylpyrazoles. In this process, the Cu(I)-Ph-BPE catalyst activates the β,γ-alkynyl-α-ketimino ester through N,O-coordination, enabling the subsequent nucleophilic addition of a dienolate generated from the β,γ-unsaturated N-acylpyrazole via α-position deprotonation with a catalytic amount of tertiary amine. The reactions gave useful products with very high enantioselectivities. A broad range of substrates with various substituents are tolerated in this reaction. The versatility of this method was demonstrated by a gram-scale reaction, and subsequent elaboration of the Mannich adducts was also provided.

Abstract
We herein report regio- and enantioselective arylation of β,γ-alkynyl-α-imino esters with pyrroloisoquinolines. Using chiral phosphoric acid catalysts, a wide range of novel axially chiral tetrasubstituted α-amino allenoates were accessed in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities. Notably, this transformation occurred preferentially at the sterically more hindered C1-position of pyrroloisoquinolines. The potential scalability and late-stage functionalization demonstrated the utility of the current protocol.

Abstract
Asymmetric organocatalysis is a growing method for the synthesis of axially chiral tetrasubstituted allenes, the most challenging one among allene syntheses. In this method, chiral organocatalysts such as phase-transfer catalysts, peptides, disulfonimides, and binaphthyl/bispiro phosphoric acids have displayed remote control of regio- and stereoselectivity. Highly functionalized enantiopure allenes including those with an adjacent tertiary or quaternary stereocenter have been efficiently prepared with high levels of regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity using this method. Several mechanistic pathways, including electrophilic addition to cumulenolate or zwitterionic enolate intermediates, alkynylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction, nucleophilic addition to quinone methides, and dearomative addition to imino esters, were proposed. The method is necessary for providing access to axially chiral tetrasubstituted allenes, which can be utilized for the preparation of novel ligands, natural products, and organic materials, particularly those having complex structures. This review covers the enantioselective organocatalytic synthesis of these tetrasubstituted allenes and the mechanistic insights into the formation of the chiral axis up to July 2022.

Abstract
We developed a novel asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation/transamidation tandem reaction for the enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6-ones bearing a -CF3 unit via synergistic chiral phosphoric acid and MgSO4 catalysis. This [3 + 3] annulation protocol allows the formation of trifluoromethylated pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6-ones with two adjacent tertiary stereocenters in moderate to high yields (up to 90%), enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee), and diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr).

Abstract
An enantioselective Mannich addition of 3,5-disubstituted 4-nitroisoxazoles to β,γ-alkynyl-α-ketimino esters promoted by an amide phosphonium salt-based catalyst has been developed. N-Cbz-protected ketimino esters with various aryl substituents attached to the alkyne unit were reacted with a series of isoxazoles with different substitution patterns. Chiral tertiary propargylic amine products were obtained with moderate to good yields and enantioselectivities. TIPS- and cyclopropyl-substituted alkynyl ketimines were also examined in the current system and the desired products were obtained with moderate yields and enantioselectivities. The potential scalability and utility of the current protocol were demonstrated by carrying out a relatively larger scale reaction followed by further transformations.

Abstract
The synthesis of unnatural α-amino acid derivatives has attracted considerable interest in recent years, as they are ubiquitous in protein synthesis and peptide-based drug discovery. Herein, we reported the chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed asymmetric reaction of indoles with β,γ-alkynyl-α-imino esters for the enantioselective synthesis of unnatural indole-based α-amino acid derivatives. This asymmetric organocatalysis protocol enables efficient synthesis of unnatural α-amino acid derivatives with a tetrasubstituted stereogenic center and an alkyne moiety with up to 99% yield and 98% ee, resulting in operationally simple conditions, short reaction time, and broad substrate scope.

Abstract
In recent years, the synthesis of axially chiral compounds has received considerable attention due to their extensive application as biologically active compounds in medicinal chemistry and as chiral ligands in asymmetric catalysis. Chiral phosphoric acids are recognized as efficient organocatalysts for a variety of enantioselective transformations. In this review, we summarize the recent development of chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed synthesis of a wide range of axially chiral biaryls, heterobiaryls, vinylarenes, N-arylamines, spiranes, and allenes with high efficiency and excellent stereoselectivity.
