Bicarbonate-binding catalysis for the enantioselective desymmetrization of keto sulfonium salts. Nat Commun 2024; 15:4727.

Abstract
Herein, an enantioselective desymmetrization of cyclic keto sulfonium salts through enantioselective deprotonation/ring opening process by anion-binding catalysis is presented. We report a squaramide/HCO3- complex as catalytic active species which is able to stereo-differentiate two enantiomeric protons, triggering the ring opening event taking advantage of the great tendency of sulfonium salts to act as leaving groups. Thus, this desymmetrization methodology give rise to β-methylsulfenylated sulfa-Michael addition type products with excellent yields and very good enantioselectivities. The bifunctional organocatalyst has been demonstrated to be capable of activating simultaneously the base and the keto sulfonium salt by DFT calculations and experimental proofs.

Abstract
A new iminophosphorane-thiourea superbase was rationally designed and investigated as an organocatalyst for the enantioselective Michael addition reaction of nitromethane to 4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one. Starting from an iminophosphorane-thiourea organocatalyst structure already known, we have used theoretical calculations to determine the structures of transition states involved in the carbon-carbon bond formation step and carried out structural modifications to accelerate the reaction rate and to increase the enantioselectivity. The effective structural modification was adding a rigid hydroxyl group able to make an additional hydrogen bond to the transition state, producing a substantial decrease of the ΔG‡ by 7 kcal mol-1. The enantiomeric excess is predicted to be above of 97% using the reliable M06-2X and ωB97M - V functionals. The determination of the complete reaction mechanism and free energy profile was followed by a detailed microkinetic analysis. The present study points out a new direction for structural modifications on this kind of organocatalyst.

Abstract
The organocatalytic enolization of 2-arylacetamides, followed by an enantioselective intramolecular conjugate addition to tethered 2,5-cyclohexadienones, yielding 3D fused N-heterocycles, is described. The transformation represents the first strong activating group-free activation of carboxamides via α-C-H deprotonation in a metal-free, catalytic, and enantioselective reaction, and is achieved by employing a bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) superbase.

Abstract
A novel NbCl5-catalyzed sulfa-conjugate addition has been developed to construct quaternary centers in various enones. This new method enables a range of functionalized thiols to access different β-sulfido carbonyl compounds bearing a quaternary center. 27 novel β-sulfido ketones have been obtained with moderate to excellent yields. The preparative scale reactions also proceed well, showing no decrease in yield. We further studied the mechanism by DFT calculations. This methodology is significant in sulfur chemistry, especially in sulfa-conjugate addition, giving a new pathway to add thiols to tri-substituted enones.

Abstract
Base-catalyzed diastereodivergent thia-Michael addition of thiols to chiral β-trifluoromethyl-α,β-unsaturated N-acylated oxazolidin-2-ones is reported. By tuning the base-catalyst (i-Pr2NEt, DABCO, or P2-t-Bu), a range of chiral thia-Michael adducts was synthesized in good yields with high diastereoselectivities. A plausible mechanism was proposed on the basis of the experimental results. This work is complementary to the existing methods offering advantages, e.g., switchable diastereoselectivity using a readily synthesized chiral starting material, a cheap and readily available base catalyst, and a simple and practical operation, enabling synthetic application in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Herein we describe the enantioselective intermolecular conjugate addition of nitroalkanes to unactivated α,β-unsaturated esters, catalyzed by a bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) superbase. The transformation provides the most direct access to pharmaceutically relevant enantioenriched γ-nitroesters, utilizing feedstock chemicals, with unprecedented selectivity. The methodology exhibits a broad substrate scope, including β-(fluoro)alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl substituted electrophiles, and was successfully applied on a gram scale with reduced catalyst loading, and, additionally, catalyst recovery was carried out. The formal synthesis of a range of drug molecules, and an enantioselective synthesis of (S)-rolipram were achieved. Additionally, computational studies revealed key reaction intermediates and transition state structures, and provided rationale for high enantioselectivities, in good agreement with experimental results.

Abstract
An enantioselective Michael addition of malonates to α,β-unsaturated para-nitrophenyl esters was achieved using the Lewis basic isothiourea HyperBTM, giving excellent levels of product enantioselectivity (up to >99:1 enantiomeric ratio) in good yields and with complete regioselectivity (>20:1 regioselectivity ratio) in the presence of alternative (phenyl ketone and ethyl ester) Michael acceptors. Density functional theory calculations indicate that N-acylation is rate-limiting. This constitutes a rare example of a highly enantioselective addition of simple, readily available malonates to α,β-unsaturated esters.

Abstract
A highly efficient asymmetric Michael addition of bulky glycine imine to α,β-unsaturated isoxazoles has been achieved by using 5 mol% of chiral cyclopropenimine as a chiral organo-superbase catalyst under mild conditions. Michael adducts were obtained in excellent yields (up to 97%) and stereoselectivities (up to>99 : 1 dr and 98% ee). A significant solvent effect was found in these chiral organosuperbase catalyzed asymmetric Michael reactions. Gram-scale preparation of Michael adducts and their transformations are realized to provide corresponding products without loss of stereoselectivities. The configurations of Michael adduct was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

Abstract
![]()
The
first metal-free catalytic intermolecular enantioselective
Michael addition to unactivated α,β-unsaturated amides
is described. Consistently high enantiomeric excesses and yields were
obtained over a wide range of alkyl thiol pronucleophiles and electrophiles
under mild reaction conditions, enabled by a novel squaramide-based
bifunctional iminophosphorane catalyst. Low catalyst loadings (2.0
mol %) were achieved on a decagram scale, demonstrating the scalability
of the reaction. Computational analysis revealed the origin of the
high enantiofacial selectivity via analysis of relevant transition
structures and provided substantial support for specific noncovalent
activation of the carbonyl group of the α,β-unsaturated
amide by the catalyst.

Abstract
The renaissance of Brønsted superbases is primarily based on their pronounced capacity for a large variety of chemical transformations under mild reaction conditions. Four major set screws are available for the selective tuning of the basicity: the nature of the basic center (N, P, …), the degree of electron donation by substituents to the central atom, the possibility of charge delocalization, and the energy gain by hydrogen bonding. Within the past decades, a plethora of neutral electron-rich phosphine and phosphazene bases have appeared in the literature. Their outstanding properties and advantages over inorganic or charged bases have now made them indispensable as auxiliary bases in deprotonation processes. Herein, an update of the chemistry of basic phosphines and phosphazenes is given. In addition, due to widespread interest, their use in catalysis or as ligands in coordination chemistry is highlighted.

Abstract
Several direct asymmetric Michael additions to α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids with integrated catalysts comprising chiral bifunctional thiourea and arylboronic acid were developed. First, the asymmetric aza-Michael addition of hydroxylamine derivatives efficiently afforded a variety of optically active β-amino acid derivatives. Furthermore, upon detailed investigation of the reaction, tetrahedral borate complexes, comprising two carboxylate molecules, were found to serve as reaction intermediates. Based on this observation, a drastic improvement in product enantioselectivity was achieved upon benzoic acid addition. Second, on merely changing the solvent, the asymmetric thia-Michael addition of arylthiols afforded both enantiomers of the adducts, which are important building blocks for biologically active compounds.

Abstract
Organic synthesis has traditionally been performed in batch. Continuous-flow chemistry was recently rediscovered as an enabling technology to be applied to the synthesis of organic molecules. Organocatalysis is a well-established methodology, especially for the preparation of enantioenriched compounds. In this chapter we discuss the use of chiral organocatalysts in continuous flow. After the classification of the different types of catalytic reactors, in Section 2, each class will be discussed with the most recent and significant examples reported in the literature. In Section 3 we discuss homogeneous stereoselective reactions in flow, with a look at the stereoselective organophotoredox transformations in flow. This research topic is emerging as one of the most powerful method to prepare enantioenriched products with structures that would otherwise be challenging to make. Section 4 describes the use of supported organocatalysts in flow chemistry. Part of the discussion will be devoted to the choice of the support. Examples of packed-bed, monolithic and inner-wall functionalized reactors will be introduced and discussed. We hope to give an overview of the potentialities of the combination of (supported) chiral organocatalysts and flow chemistry.

Abstract
Enantioselective protonation by hydrophosphinylation of diarylphosphine oxides with 2-vinyl azaheterocycle N-oxide derivatives was demonstrated using chiral bis(guanidino)iminophosphorane as the higher-order organosuperbase catalyst. It was confirmed by several control experiments that a chiral weak conjugate acid of the chiral bis(guanidino)iminophosphorane, instead of achiral diarylphosphine oxides, directly functioned as the proton source to afford the corresponding product in a highly enantioselective manner in most cases. Enantioselective protonation by a weak conjugate acid generated from the higher-order organosuperbase would broaden the scope of enantioselective reaction systems because of utilization of a range of less acidic pronucleophiles. This method is highlighted by the valuable synthesis of a series of chiral P,N-ligands for chiral metal complexes through the reduction of phosphine oxide and N-oxide units of the corresponding product without loss of enantiomeric purity.

Abstract
In this manuscript, a simple and efficient sulfa-Michael addition reaction of aryl thiols to trisubstituted α-fluoro-α,β-unsaturated esters both in racemic and, for the first time, in enantioselective version is reported. The commercially available dimer of cinchona derivatives (DHQ)2PYR was used as a catalyst. This strategy showed a great tolerance for various substrates and substituents, providing fair to excellent yields, moderate to excellent diastereoselectivities (2:1 to >99:1), and low to good enantioselectivities (2 to 87%). The reaction has been applied to the synthesis of fluorinated analogues of diltiazem and tiazesim, both therapeutic agents.

Abstract
To improve the field of catalysis, there is a substantial and growing need for novel high-performance catalysts providing new reactivity. To date, however, the set of reactions that can be reliably performed to prepare chiral compounds in largely one enantiomeric form using chiral catalysts still represents a small fraction of the toolkit of known transformations. In this context, chiral Brønsted bases have played an expanding role in catalyzing enantioselective reactions between various carbon- and heteroatom-centered acids and a host of electrophilic reagents. This Account describes our recent efforts developing and applying a new family of chiral Brønsted bases incorporating an H-bond donor moiety and a strongly basic iminophosphorane, which we have named BIMPs (Bifunctional IMinoPhosphoranes), as efficient catalysts for reactions currently out of reach of more widespread tertiary amine centered bifunctional catalysts. The iminophosphorane Brønsted base is easily generated by the Staudinger reaction of a chiral organoazide and commercially available phosphine, which allows easy modification of the catalyst structure and fine-tuning of the iminophosphorane pKBH+. We have demonstrated that BIMP catalysts can efficiently promote the enantioselective addition of nitromethane to low reactivity N-diphenylphosphinoyl (DPP)-protected imines of ketones (ketimines) to access valuable chiral diamine and α-quaternary amino acid building blocks, and later extended this methodology to phosphite nucleophiles. Subsequently, the reaction scope was expanded to include the Michael addition of high pKa alkyl thiols to α-substituted acrylate esters, β-substituted α,β-unsaturated esters, and alkenyl benzimidazoles as well as the challenging direct aldol addition of aryl ketones to α-fluorinated ketones. Finally, BIMP catalysts were shown to be used in key steps in the synthesis of complex alkaloid natural products (-)-nakadomarin A and (-)-himalensine A, as well as in polymer synthesis. In most cases, the predictable nature of the BIMP promoted reactions was demonstrated by multigram scale-up while employing low catalyst loadings (down to 0.05 mol%). Furthermore, it was shown that BIMP catalysts can be easily immobilized onto a solid support in one-step for increased catalyst recycling and flow chemistry applications. Alongside our own work, this Account also includes elegant work by Johnson and co-workers utilizing the BIMP catalyst system, when alternative catalysts proved suboptimal.

Abstract
A bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP)-catalysed enantioselective synthesis of α,β-unsaturated cyclohexenones through a facially selective 1,3-prototropic shift of β,γ-unsaturated prochiral isomers, under mild reaction conditions and in short reaction times, on a range of structurally diverse substrates, is reported. α,β-Unsaturated cyclohexenone products primed for downstream derivatisation were obtained in high yields (up to 99 %) and consistently high enantioselectivity (up to 99 % ee). Computational studies into the reaction mechanism and origins of enantioselectivity, including multivariate linear regression of TS energy, were carried out and the obtained data were found to be in good agreement with experimental findings.

An asymmetric thia-Michael addition of arylthiols to α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids using a thiourea catalyst that bears arylboronic acid and tertiary amine moieties is reported. Both enantiomers of the Michael adducts can be obtained in high enantioselectivity and good yield merely by changing the solvent. The origin of the chirality switch in the products was examined in each solvent via spectroscopic analyses.

Abstract
β-Amino esters are obtained with high levels of enantioselectivity via the conjugate addition of cyclic amines to unactivated α,β-unsaturated esters. A related strategy enables the kinetic resolution of racemic cyclic 2-arylamines, using benzyl acrylate as the resolving agent. Reactions are facilitated by an unprecedented selenourea-thiourea organocatalyst. As elucidated by DFT calculations and 13C kinetic isotope effect studies, the rate-limiting and enantiodetermining step of the reaction is the protonation of a zwitterionic intermediate by the catalyst. This represents a rare case in which a thiourea compound functions as an asymmetric Brønsted acid catalyst.

Abstract
The isothiourea-catalysed enantioselective Michael addition of 3-aryloxindole and 4-substituted-dihydropyrazol-3-one pronucleophiles to α,β-unsaturated p-nitrophenyl esters is reported. This process generates products containing two contiguous stereocentres, one quaternary, in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities (>30 examples, up to > 95 : 5 dr and 99 : 1 er). This protocol harnesses the multifunctional ability of p-nitrophenoxide to promote effective catalysis. In contrast to previous methodologies using tertiary amine Lewis bases, in which the pronucleophile was used as the solvent, this work allows bespoke pronucleophiles to be used in stoichiometric quantities. The isothiourea-catalysed enantioselective Michael addition of 3-aryloxindole and 4-substituted-dihydropyrazol-3-one pronucleophiles to α,β-unsaturated p-nitrophenyl esters is reported.![]()

Abstract
The concept of combining a catalyst and an activated center in one molecule was implemented in Michael donors functionalized with phosphazene units. First, the phosphazene group catalyzes Michael addition and then acts as a reactant in an intramolecular aza-Wittig reaction. The viability of this strategy was demonstrated by our development of a one-pot method for azepane core construction starting from functionalized azides, triphenylphosphine and acrolein.

Abstract
The hallmark of nucleophilic phosphine catalysis is the initial nucleophilic addition of a phosphine to an electrophilic starting material, producing a reactive zwitterionic intermediate, generally under mild conditions. In this Review, we classify nucleophilic phosphine catalysis reactions in terms of their electrophilic components. In the majority of cases, these electrophiles possess carbon-carbon multiple bonds: alkenes (section 2), allenes (section 3), alkynes (section 4), and Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) alcohol derivatives (MBHADs; section 5). Within each of these sections, the reactions are compiled based on the nature of the second starting material-nucleophiles, dinucleophiles, electrophiles, and electrophile-nucleophiles. Nucleophilic phosphine catalysis reactions that occur via the initial addition to starting materials that do not possess carbon-carbon multiple bonds are collated in section 6. Although not catalytic in the phosphine, the formation of ylides through the nucleophilic addition of phosphines to carbon-carbon multiple bond-containing compounds is intimately related to the catalysis and is discussed in section 7. Finally, section 8 compiles miscellaneous topics, including annulations of the Hüisgen zwitterion, phosphine-mediated reductions, iminophosphorane organocatalysis, and catalytic variants of classical phosphine oxide-generating reactions.
