Abstract

A novel bifunctional organocatalyst 5,11,17,23-tetra­butyl-25-[2-(diphenylphosphino)benzoate]-26,27,28-trihydroxycalix-[4]arene (LB3) was synthesized and applied to promote the aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman (aza-MBH) reaction of N-sulfonated im­ines with methyl vinyl ketone. It was found that in the presence of acidic additives the reaction rate could be accelerated to give aza-MBH adducts in good to excellent yields. Compared to our previous phosphine-containing calix[4]arene LB1, the novel catalyst was more effective.

Key word

phosphine-containing calix[4]arene - organocatalysis - aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman

Typical Procedure for the Preparation of LB3: A suspension of para-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (1.30 g, 2.0 mmol) in toluene (45 mL) was cooled to 0 ˚C. Then 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzoic acid (0.92 g, 3.0 mmol), dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC, 0.699 g, 3.4 mmol) and 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP; 0.041 g, 0.34 mmol) were added. After stirring at 60 ˚C for 12 h, the suspension was filtrated and extracted with CH2Cl2 (100 mL) and then washed with H2O (2 × 50 mL). The organic layer was dried with anhyd Na2SO4 and evaporated to afford a white solid that was purified by flash chromatography (EtOAc-PE, 1:30) to afford LB3; yield 60%; mp 181.0-182.1 ˚C. ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 0.88 (s, 15 H, Me), 1.08 (s, 15 H, Me), 1.25 (s, 6 H, Me), 3.72 (m, 8 H, CH2), 6.10 (br, 1 H, OH), 6.49 (br, 2 H, OH), 6.68 (s, 2 H, ArH), 6.88 (s, 1 H, ArH), 7.01 (s, 1 H, ArH), 7.08 (s, 2 H, ArH), 7.17-7.23 (m, 6 H, ArH), 7.29 (t, J = 5.6 Hz, 9 H, ArH), 7.66 (s, 1 H, ArH). ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 162.1, 148.5, 148.1, 144.0, 143.1, 140.9, 140.6, 138.0, 137.9, 137.6, 137.5, 134.1 (2 × C), 133.9, 133.8, 133.5, 133.4, 132.9 (2 × C), 131.9 (2 × C), 131.6 (2 × C), 131.0, 130.8, 128.4 (2 × C), 128.3 (3 × C), 128.2 (4 × C), 126.8 (2 × C), 126.1 (2 × C), 125.9, 125.7, 125.3, 124.9, 124.8, 34.0, 33.9, 31.6 (9 × C), 31.3 (2 × C), 31.2 (2 × C), 31.1 (4 × C), 29.8.

Typical Procedure for the Aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman Reaction of N-Sulfonated Imines 1 with MVK in the Presence of LB3 (10 mol%): To N-(2-fluorobenzylidene)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (1a; 0.259 g, 1.0 mmol), LB3 (0.094 g, 0.10 mmol) and PhCO2H (0.012 g, 0.10 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (3.0 mL) was added MVK (0.105 g, 1.5 mmol) at r.t. Then the temperature was raised to 40 ˚C with stirring for 4 h. The solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (20 mL) and then washed with H2O (2 × 15 mL). The organic layer was dried with Na2SO4 and evaporated to afford a white solid that was purified by flash chromatography (eluent: EtOAc-PE, 1:4) to give the corresponding aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct 3a (0.289 g, 88%); mp 120.2-121.3 ˚C (lit.,³g 120-121 ˚C). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 2.15 (s, 3 H, Me), 2.42 (s, 3 H, Me), 5.27 (d, J = 8.7 Hz, 1 H, CH2), 5.71 (d, J = 8.7 Hz, 1 H, CH2), 6.07 (s, 1 H, CH), 6.09 (s, 1 H, NH), 7.08 (m, 2 H, ArH), 7.17-7.22 (m, 5 H, ArH), 7.64 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 2 H, ArH).
