Title: Practical Enantioselective Construction of Arrays of Stereogenic Centers: The Jørgensen Synthesis of the Autoregulator IM-2
Abstract: Armando Córdova of Stockholm University found (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 8468) that the enantiomerically-enriched diastereomers from aminosulfenylation of 1 were readily separable by silica gel chromatography. Benjamin List of the Max-Planck-Institut, Mülheim developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 8112) what appears to be a general protocol for the enantioselective epoxidation of enones such as 4. Paolo Melchiorre of the Università di Bologna devised (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47 , 8703) a related protocol for the enantioselective aziridination of enones. Xue-Long Hue of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry and Yun-Dong Wu of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology optimized (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130 , 14362) a Cu catalyst for enantioselective Mannich homologation of imines such as 6. Guofu Zhong of Nanyang Technological University, Singapore established (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 10187; Organic Lett. 2008 , 10 , 4585) that enantioselective α-aminoxylation of an ω-alkenyl aldehyde such as 9 could lead to defined arrays of stereogenic centers. George A. O’Doherty of West Virginia University devised (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 3149) a protocol for the enantioselective hydration of 12 to 13 . René Peters, now at the University of Stuttgart, designed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 5461) an Al catalyst for the enantioselective combination of an acyl bromide 15 with an aldehyde 14 to deliver the β–lactone 16. Hajime Ito and Masaya Sawamura of Hokkaido University established (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 15774) that the allenyl borane from 17 added to aldehydes such as 18 with high ee. Keiji Maruoka of Kyoto University developed (Tetrahedron Lett. 2008, 49, 5369) an organocatalyst for the Mannich homologation of an aldehyde such as 20 to 21. R. Karl Dieter of Clemson University showed (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 2087) that 23, readily prepared in high ee, could be displaced sequentially with two different Grignard reagents, to give 24. Jeffrey W. Bode, now at the University of Pennsylvania, found (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 3817) that bisulfite adducts such as 25 served well for the addition of unstable chloroaldehydes to 26 to give 27.
