Palladium-Catalyzed Cascade sp2 C−H Functionalization/Intramolecular Asymmetric Allylation: From Aryl Ureas and 1,3-Dienes to Chiral Indolines
Zhi-Yong Han, Shu-Sen Chen, Min-Song Wu
A chiral PdII-catalyzed cascade sp2 C−H functionalization/intramolecular asymmetric allylation reaction is reported. A new chiral sulfoxide–oxazoline (SOX) ligand bearing single chiral center on the sulfur was identified as the optimal ligand for the reaction, being efficient both in the C−H cleavage step and the stereocontrol of the allylation step. The broad scope of this method with respect to aryl ureas and 1,3-dienes enables the rapid construction of valuable chiral indoline derivatives with high yields and enantioselectivities (up to 99 % yield, up to 95:5 e.r.). Efficiency and chirality: A chiral PdII-catalyzed cascade sp2 C−H functionalization/intramolecular asymmetric allylation reaction is described. A chiral sulfoxide–oxazoline (SOX) ligand bearing single chiral center on the sulfur was identified as the optimal ligand for the reaction, being efficient both in the C−H cleavage step and the stereo-control of the allylation step.
