Enantioselective Synthesis of Axially Chiral 1-Arylisoquinolines by Iridium(I)-Catalyzed Hydroarylation of Alkynes

Abstract
Ir(I)-catalyzed atroposelective hydroarylation of alkynes with 1-arylisoquinolines through C–H functionalization was realized. In the presence of 5 mol% of [Ir(cod)Cl]2 and 10 mol% of QUINOX-P, a wide range of axially chiral alkenylated biaryls were obtained in up to 98% yield and 97% ee. Notably, only one equivalent of the alkyne was required to guarantee a high efficiency of this C–H functionalization process. This reaction exhibits excellent functional-group tolerance under mild conditions.

- 17 1-(2-[1,2-Diarylvinyl]-1-naphthyl)benzo[h]isoquinolines 3: General Procedure Under an argon atmosphere, a flame-dried 10 mL Schlenk tube was charged with [Ir(cod)Cl]2 (6.7 mg, 0.01 mmol, 5 mol%), (S,S)-QUINOX-P (6.6 mg, 0.02 mmol, 10 mol%) and anhyd THF (1.0 mL), and the resulting solution was stirred for 10 min at rt. Then, isoquinoline 1 (0.2 mmol), alkyne 2 (0.2 mmol), and NaBArF (35.4 mg, 0.04 mmol, 20 mol%) were added under argon and the tube was heated at 80 °C for 10–24 h. The mixture was then cooled to rt and the crude product was purified by preparative TLC (PE–EtOAc, 5:1).
