Solid-Phase Synthesis of Chiral N-Acylethylenediamines and Their Use as Ligands for the Asymmetric Addition of Alkylzinc and Alkenylzinc Reagents to Aldehydes

A solid-phase procedure has been developed for the synthesis of chiral N-acylethylenediamine ligands.

Zusammenfassung:A solid-phase procedure has been developed for the synthesis of chiral N-acylethylenediamine ligands. The ligands are obtained in good yield and purity, without the need for chromatography or other purification methods. Several new and previously reported ligands were prepared using this procedure. These compounds were examined as catalysts for the enantioselective addition of alkylzinc reagents to aldehydes. In all cases, the crude ligands from the solid-phase syntheses catalyzed the reactions with similar yields and stereoselectivities when compared to reactions using ligands that had been purified by standard methods. Preliminary studies were also performed with ligands 3a and 3f as catalysts for the addition of alkenylzinc reagents to aldehydes to give chiral allylic alcohols. Ligand 3f was found to catalyze this addition reaction in up to 76% ee.
