Abstract
A readily accessible small-molecule phosphine, derived from commercially available starting materials such as an enantiomerically pure amino acid, serves as the precursor to a Ag-based chiral complex that can be prepared and used in situ to promote a variety of enantioselective vinylogous Mannich (EVM) reactions that involve siloxypyrroles as reaction partners. Transformations with unsubstituted nucleophilic components proceed efficiently and with exceptional site- (γ vs α-addition), diastereo- and enantioselectivity [up to 98% yield, generally >98:2 γ/α and diastereomeric ratio (dr) and up to 99:1 enantiomeric ratio (er)]. The first examples of efficient, diastereo- and enantioselective vinylogous Mannich additions with 5-methyl-substituted siloxyfuran, resulting in the formation of O-substituted quaternary carbon stereogenic centers are presented as well. Appreciable efficiency and diastereo- and enantioselectivity (up to >98:2dr and >99:1er) is accompanied by formation of α-addition products that can be oxidatively removed.
