Abstract

Pd-catalyzed asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura couplings of 3-methyl-2-bromophenylamides, 3-methyl-2-bromo-1-nitrobenzene and 1-naphthaleneboronic acids have been successfully developed and the corresponding axially chiral biaryl compounds were obtained in very high yields (up to 99%) with good enantioselectivities (up to 88% ee) under mild conditions. The chiral-bridged biphenyl monophosphine ligands developed by our group exhibit significant superiority to the naphthyl counterpart MOP in both reactivity and enantioselectivity control. The large steric hindrance from π-conjugated ortho-substituents of the bromobenzene substrates and the Pd···O interaction between carbonyl and palladium seem essential to achieve high enantioselectivity.

Keywords: asymmetric catalysis; biaryls; monophosphine ligand; palladium catalyst; Suzuki–Miyaura couplings

Introduction

Axially chiral molecules have received much attention from chemists because of their widespread appearance in biologically active compounds [1-4] such as vancomycin [5] and korupensamine A [6] and as useful chiral ligands in asymmetric catalysis. Different strategies with various metals and phosphine ligands had been successfully employed for the efficient synthesis of this scaffold [7-22], like Hiyama [23,24], Negishi [25,26] or Suzuki–Miyaura couplings [27-36]. In these synthetic strategies, the reaction system of palladium with chiral phosphine ligands was studied fruitfully by Cammidge [37,38], Buchwald [13,28,39], Tang [40-43] and other groups [43-59]. Nevertheless, for the asymmetric formation of large steric systems such as sterically demanding biaryls still remain limitations [24], especially on how to obtain the large steric axially chiral biaryl with a high yield and good enantioselectivity through those coupling strategies [13]. Therefore, based on our previous research [60-65], we herein present a new method through which those large steric axially chiral biaryl compounds can be obtained in excellent yields and good enantioselectivities under mild conditions, by using brominated amides and arylboronic acids as substrates, as well as palladium and chiral-bridged biphenyl monophosphine ligands as catalysts.

Results and Discussion

2-Bromo-3-methyl-N-phenylbenzamide (1g) and 1-naphthylboronic acid (2a) were utilized to synthesize axially chiral compound 3g. This reaction was selected as model reaction for further optimization of Pd sources, ligands (Figure 1), solvents, bases and temperature. At first, various phosphine ligands were screened with 2.5 mol % Pd2(dba)3, 3.0 equivalents K3PO4 in THF at 50 °C for 72 h. The results show that the ligands have a large effect on the reaction. As listed in Table 1, the reaction was performed well and the product was obtained in 70% yield when using L1 (R)-MOP as the ligand, but the enantioselectivity was unsatisfactorily low (36% ee; Table 1, entry 1). After further examination of the ligands developed by our group (L2–L9), it was found that phosphine ligands with a large steric aryl group linked to a phosphorus atom are more effective than the ligand with a cyclohexyl group both in yield and enantioselectivity (Table 1, entries 2–7). The results show that the higher the steric hindrance of the ligand, the better the yield and enantioselectivity. In order to find out whether the 1’-substituent of the ligand has any influence on the reaction result, we replaced the methoxy group (L3) with an ethoxy group (L8), or a hydrogen atom (L9), which all led to a significant decrease of yield and enantioselectivity (Table 1, entries 3 vs 8 and 9). Considering the yield and enantioselectivity of the product comprehensively, L7 was chosen as the most suitable ligand for this reaction and under these conditions product 3g was obtained in 85% yield and with 78% ee (Table 1, entry 7). In the following investigations, it was found that Pd2(dba)3 as palladium source, THF as solvent and K3PO4 as base is the most effective combination (Table 1, entries 10–18). More results suggested that the yield varied directly proportional to the temperature, while the enantioselectivity went inversely (Table 1, entries 19–21). Therefore, 50 °C was chosen as the reaction temperature.

With the optimized reaction conditions in hand, we expanded the reaction with various functionalized starting materials, as shown in Scheme 1. Linear N-alkyl substituted amides were found to produce better yields than N-branched alkyl chain amides, though they performed similar ee values (3a, 3b). N-Cycloalkyl-substituted amides enabled the reaction to achieve a quantitative conversion with good ee value (97% yield, 76% ee for 3c; 98% yield, 75% ee for 3d). The yield and ee value of an oxazolidinone amide were slightly lower than those of tetrahydropyrrolamide (3e, 3f). Various aromatic substituted amides were investigated. The results show that electron-rich or electron-deficient substituents on the phenyl ring have no significant influence on the enantiomeric excesses of the products (3g–n), but the best ee value was obtained for the substrate with an electron-deficient phenyl ester (88% ee, 3o). By changing 1-naphthaleneboronic acid to 4-substituted-1-naphthaleneboronic acids 3p, 3q and 3r, the enantioselectivity and the yield of the reaction decreased with the increase of the substituent on the boronic acid. When a methyl or methoxy group were present at the ortho-position of 1-naphthaleneboronic acid, the reactions were hard to move on even at 70 °C. By replacing the 3-methyl group of the amide with a 3-methoxy or a 3-benzyloxy group, the yield and ee value of the reaction were still unsatisfactory though the temperature had been raised to 70 °C too (see Supporting Information File 1, Scheme S1, compounds 3s, 65% yield, 18% ee; 3t, 60% yield, 23% ee). In addition, phenylboric acids were also investigated, but the reaction results were not so good (see Supporting Information File 1, Scheme S1, compounds 3u, 60% yield, 11% ee; 3v, 90% yield, 0% ee).

[1860-5397-16-85-i1]

Scheme 1: Asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura coupling. Reaction conditions: 1 equiv N-aryl-bromoaryl compounds, 2 equiv arylboronic acids, 5 mol % Pd, 6 mol % ligand, 3 equiv of K3PO4, 2 mL THF, 50 ⁰C, 72 h; Yields are combined isolated values; ee values were determined by HPLC with chiral columns.

More specifically, the change of the R1 group on the bromoamide compound has a weak influence on the coupling reaction. No matter it was a straight alkyl chain, a branched alkyl chain, a heterocyclic group, an electron-rich aromatic or an electron-deficient aromatic group, the reaction always performed well with high yield and good enantioselectivity. We guess that the large sterically hindered π-plane formed between a carbonyl group and a benzene ring is the guarantee of high ee values of the product [13,39,42,57,65] along with the Pd···O interaction [13,64] between carbonyl and palladium. The experimental results also show that the substituent of the arylboronic acid has an obvious effect on the reaction: the yield and ee value of the product decrease with the increase of the steric hindrance of the 4-substituted boronic acid.

Next, in order to confirm our speculation, the amide group of the aryl bromide was replaced with other functional groups, as shown in Scheme 2. When the amide group was changed into an amine, coupling product 5a was obtained quantitatively but without any enantioselectivity. Just a slight improvement of the ee value was found along with the introduction of bulkier substituents to the amino group (5b–d). From the reaction results, it can be seen that the Pd···O interaction [13,64] between the carbonyl group and the palladium plays an important role for the reaction enantioselectivity. However, with the substitution of an ester group for the amino moiety, interestingly, the situation changed significantly. The greater the ester substituent, the better the reaction results including the product yield and ee value. When the functional group changed from methyl ester to tert-butyl ester, the reaction yield rose up from 77% to 90% and the enantioselectivity increased from 35% to 70% (5e, 5f). This indicates that the O···Pd interaction between the carbonyl group and the palladium is not strong enough to determine the enantioselectivity of the reaction solely, the steric hindrance from π-conjugated ortho-substituents of the bromobenzenes is also important. In addition, coupling of 2-bromo-3-nitrotoluene with 4-substituted or unsubstituted 1-naphthaleneboronic acids provided the corresponding products in high yields with good ee values (5g, 98% yield, 75% ee; 5h, 97% yield, 83% ee; 5i, 98% yield, 85% ee) [39,62]. All these results show that the large steric hindrance from π-conjugated ortho-substituents of the bromobenzenes and the O···Pd interaction work together for the acquisition of high enantioselectivity. As stated before, the replacement of naphthaleneboronic acid with phenylboronic acid derivatives also resulted in poor enantioselectivities of the products (see Supporting Information File 1, Scheme S1, 3u, 60% yield, 11% ee; 3v, 99% yield, 0% ee). This further demonstrates the importance of the steric hindrance and rigidity from the other substrate arylboronic acid. A gram-scale reaction of 1h with 2a went well and provided 3h with a slightly reduced yield and ee (75% yield and 73% ee, Scheme 3), compared with 3h in Scheme 1.

Conclusion

In summary, a Pd-catalyzed asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura coupling of 3-methyl-2-bromophenylamides or 3-methyl-2-bromo-1-nitrobenzene and 1-naphthaleneboronic acids has been successfully developed and the corresponding axially chiral biaryl compounds were obtained in very high yields (up to 99%) and with good enantioselectivities (up to 88% ee) under mild conditions. The chiral-bridged biphenyl monophosphine ligands developed by our group, especially L7, exhibited significant superiority to the naphthyl counterpart MOP in reactivity and enantioselectivity in the reactions. The large steric hindrance from π-conjugated ortho-substituents of the bromobenzene substrates and the existence of the O···Pd interaction between the carbonyl group and the palladium are beneficial to acquire high enantioselectivities.

[1860-5397-16-85-i5]

Scheme 5: Method A for the synthesis of amide substrates.

Method A: To a stirred solution of 2-bromo-3-methylbenzoic acid (2.0 g, 1.0 equiv) in DMF (0.05 equiv), oxalyl chloride (1.5 equiv) was added in DCM (20 mL) at 0 °C. After the addition was completed, the reaction mixture was further stirred for 2 h at room temperature. After the disappearance of the benzoic acid (monitored by TLC), the corresponding arylamines (1.5 equiv) were added, followed by the addition of triethylamine (2.0 equiv) in DCM (10 mL). After that the resulting reaction mixture was stirred for 20 h at room temperature and checked by TLC for reaction completion. The reaction mixture was then quenched with ice-cold water and extracted with DCM. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the crude product. The crude product was purified by column chromatography to obtain the desired amide compounds.

Scheme 6: Method B for the synthesis of amide substrates.

Method B: A round bottom flask (100 mL) was charged with 2-bromo-3-methylbenzoic acid (2.0 g, 1.0 equiv) and SOCl2 (16 mL) was added at room temperature. Then, the reaction mixture was refluxed at 80 °C for 2 h. After completion of the reaction, the excess thionyl chloride was removed by evaporation using a rotary evaporator. Then, the corresponding arylamines (1.2 equiv) were added to the acyl chlorides, triethylamine (1.5 equiv) and DMAP (5 mol %) in DCM (20 mL). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred for 20 h at room temperature. The completion of the reaction was monitored by TLC. After completion of the reaction ice-cold water was added and the separated organic layer was washed with brine and saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. Then, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the crude product. The crude product was purified by column chromatography to obtain the desired products.

General procedure for the asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura coupling

In a glovebox, an oven-dried sealing tube (15 mL) was charged with bromoarylamides (0.2 mmol, 1.0 equiv), Pd2(dba)3 (0.005 mmol, 5 mol % Pd), ligand L7 (0.012 mmol, 6 mol %), arylboronic acid (0.4 mmol, 2.0 equiv), K3PO4 (0.6 mmol, 3.0 equiv) and 2 mL of dry THF. S-Phos was used as ligand for the preparation of racemic products and all the reactions were carried out at 50 °C for 72 h. The completion of the reaction was checked by TLC. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and water was added. Then, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the crude product. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography using silica gel. The enantiomeric excess value of the product was determined by HPLC by using an AD-H, OD-H or IA-3 column.
