Bipyridine N,N'-dioxide is a structural fragment found in many bioactive compounds. Furthermore, chiral analogues secured their place as powerful Lewis base catalysts. The scope of the existing methods for the synthesis of atropisomeric bipyridine N,N'-dioxides is limited. Herein, we present a practical, highly chemo- and stereoselective method for oxidative dimerization of chiral pyridine N-oxides using O 2 as a terminal oxidant. A series of 13 axially chiral bipyridine N,N'-dioxides were synthesized in up to 75% yield. |
