Scheme 10.6 Summary of the enantioselectivities obtained using ligands 7. In all cases yields
were nearly quantitative. Chemicals yields > 95% in all cases.
Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of linear ( S1 ) and cyclic ( S4 ) substrates
provided low enantioselectivities (up to 31% ee) [12]. The results also showed that
the absolute configuration of the carbon C3 of the ligand controlled the configura-
tion of the allylic alkylation product.
10.2.1.3 Phosphite Ligands
In 2001, the first diphosphite ligand family ( 10-16 ) applied to Pd-catalyzed asym-
metric allylic substitution reactions was reported (Figure 10.5) [8a, 13]. The new
ligands were synthesized very efficiently in one step from the corresponding diols,
which were easily prepared on a large scale from d-(
)-glucose
using standard procedures (Scheme 10.7) [14]. Therefore, reacting the correspond-
ing diol with two equivalents of the desired in-situ formed phosphorochloridite in
the presence of base afforded the desired ligands as white air-stable solids in
moderate to good overall yield (50-67%) [14]. The highly modular construction of
these ligands allows sufficient flexibility to fine-tune (i) the various configurations
of the carbohydrate backbone, (ii) the substituents on C5 (R
+
)-xylose and d-(
+
H, Me, OTBDPS),
and (iii) the steric and electronic properties of the diphosphite substituents ( a-h ).
