  • Allylboration of Carbonyl Compounds
    2012
    Co-Authors: Hugo Lachance, Dennis G. Hall
    Abstract:

    Allylic boron compounds have gained a prominent status in organic synthesis for their ability to add with high stereoselectivity to carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes, making them a methodology of choice for the preparation of acetate and propionate units found in several classes of natural products. This remarkable reaction process was discovered in 1964, only to become popular in the 1980s. Using either the dialkylborane or boronate reagents, both the thermal uncatalyzed reaction and the more recent acid-catalyzed procedures can provide homoallylic alcohol products in high enantioselectivity. The wide of range of possibilities for substitution on the reagent's allylic unit has led to the development of numerous reagents, and the residual alkene unit in the products confers to Allylboration chemistry a unique versatility. This chapter presents an exhaustive survey of the useful reagents and their associated carbonyl substrates employed in organic synthesis. The mechanisms and parameters of the reaction are discussed, along with an overview of the different preparative methods for allylic boron reagents. The scope and limitations of these reagents in enantioselective additions, doubly diastereoselective additions, tandem reactions, and other variants is emphasized in the context of applications in natural product synthesis. The literature is covered through early 2006. Keywords: aldehydes; allylation; boron reagents; homoallylic alcohols; nucleophilic additions; organoboron chemistry; stereoselectivity

  • Rationally improved chiral Brønsted acid for catalytic enantioselective Allylboration of aldehydes with an expanded reagent scope.
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2009
    Co-Authors: Vivek Rauniyar, Dennis G. Hall
    Abstract:

    One of the most useful reactions in organic synthesis, the stereocontrolled addition of allylic metal reagents to carbonyl compounds, provides access to enantiomerically enriched homoallylic alcohols related to the acetate, propionate, and other oxygen-containing functionalities present in a large number of biologically active natural products and pharmaceutical drugs. In the search for an ideal carbonyl allylation methodology, the catalytic enantioselective Allylboration presents numerous advantages such as a high chemo-, diastereo-, and enantiocontrol with stable and nontoxic pinacol allylic boronates. This article reports a rationally improved diol x SnCl(4) complex as chiral protic acid catalyst, which provides unprecedented levels of enantioselectivity in the catalytic allylation, methallylation, crotylation, and 2-bromoallylation of aliphatic aldehydes. The new diol, p-F-Vivol (4b), enables a more active diol x SnCl(4) catalyst that can compete more effectively with the background uncatalyzed Allylboration. The usefulness of this optimized catalytic Allylboration methodology was demonstrated with an efficient synthesis of the naturally occurring pyranone (+)-dodoneine and to the preparation of biologically important exomethylene-gamma-lactones.

  • New preparative methods for allylic boronates and their application in stereoselective catalytic Allylborations
    Pure and Applied Chemistry, 2008
    Co-Authors: Dennis G. Hall
    Abstract:

    Stereocontrolled additions of allylic metal reagents to carbonyl compounds consti- tute one of the most useful classes of transformations in organic synthesis. The recent devel- opment of Lewis and Bronsted acid-catalyzed manifolds for the Allylboration of carbonyl compounds has opened doors toward an ideal carbonyl allylation methodology using stable and nontoxic allylic boronates as reagents. This paper describes the development of acid-cat- alyzed Allylborations, mechanistic investigations of these new processes, and ongoing efforts toward general catalytic enantioselective Allylboration methodologies. The preparation of op- tically enriched α-substituted allylic boronate reagents is discussed, as well as their applica- tions in Lewis acid-catalyzed additions to afford skeletally diverse products like propionate units, polysubstituted furans, vinylcyclopropanes, and larger ring systems.

  • Lewis and Brønsted Acid Catalyzed Allylboration of Carbonyl Compounds: From Discovery to Mechanism and Applications

  • Preparation of a C2-Symmetric Binol-Derived Diol and Its Application in the Catalytic Enantioselective and Catalyst-Controlled Diastereoselective Allylboration of Aldehydes
    Synthesis, 2007
    Co-Authors: Vivek Rauniyar, Dennis G. Hall
    Abstract:

    A novel C 2 -symmetric Binol-derived diol is described. It is readily applicable towards combined acid catalysis for the asym-metric Allylboration of aldehydes to provide homoallylic alcohols in high enantioselectivities, and dictates the diastereoselectivity in the reaction of an achiral allylboronate with chiral aldehydes.
