Chiral Brønsted Acids and Their Calcium Salts in Catalytic Asymmetric Mannich Reactions of Cyclic 1,3-Diketones
Publication History
Publication Date:
13 January 2011 (online)
Abstract
Asymmetric calcium-catalyzed direct Mannich reactions of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with imines have been developed. The reactions proceed under mild conditions and provide the corresponding products with high enantiomeric excess.
Key words
Mannich reaction - organocatalysis - calcium - BINOL phosphoric acid - amino acid

References and Notes
The absolute configuration of the products was obtained from X-ray crystal structure analysis of compound 6c. On the basis of this structure the absolute configuration was assigned to be the S configuration.

General Procedure
for Direct Mannich Reaction: In a typical experiment pyrone 2 or 1,3-cyclohexadione (5;
1.0 equiv), aldimine 3 (1.5 equiv), and
the calcium catalyst (5 mol%) were suspended in Bu2O
in a screw-capped vial and the resulting mixture was allowed to
stir at -40 ˚C for 60-72 h. Purification
of the crude product by column chromatography on silica gel afforded
the corresponding product 4 or 6.
