Abstract
A Co-catalyzed enantioselective desymmetric [2+2+2] cycloaddition for synthesis of pyridines with all-carbon quaternary carbon centers has been developed. The regio- and enantioselectivities are controlled by the inherent nature of terminal alkynes and the substituents on the bisoxazolinephosphine ligands. Pyridines with 5-substitutents could be obtained with >20:1 regioselectivity and up to 94 % ee when terminal alkyl, alkenyl or silyl alkynes and DTBM/Ph-based NPN* ligand L6 were used. Terminal aryl alkynes and Ph/Bn-based ligand L4 leads to formation of pyridines with 6-substitutents in up to 99 % ee.
