Abstract
Comprehensive SummaryThe design and synthesis of spirochroman‐2‐on‐4,1'‐indan‐7'‐ol (SCIOL) and its application for synthesizing chiral monophosphinite ligands are reported. The synthesis features a tandem double Friedel‐Crafts reaction/lactonization to construct the spiro framework and the desired racemic SCIOL was obtained via 6 steps with a total yield of 44.5%. Using an inclusion resolution with N‐benzylcinchonidinium chloride, the optical SCIOL could be obtained in good yields on a gram scale. The preliminary studies indicated that the corresponding chiral spiro monophosphinite ligands exhibit high catalytic activity and enantioselectivity (up to 94% ee) in the rhodium‐catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of N‐acetyl dehydroamino esters. These outcomes highlight the significant potential of SCIOL as a useful framework for the development of chiral spiro ligands.
