Popis: | Although acetalization is a fundamental transformation in organic synthesis, intermolecular asymmetric acetalization remains an unsolved problem. In this study, a thiourea-ammonium hybrid catalyst was shown to promote the O-alkylation of enols with a racemic γ-chlorobutenolide through dynamic kinetic resolution to give chiral acetals with good enantioselectivity. The catalyst simultaneously activates both the nucleophile and electrophile in a multifunctional manner. This method was applied to the asymmetric synthesis of several strigolactones. DFT calculations suggest that hydrogen-bonding interactions between the chlorine atom of the γ-chlorobutenolide and the tosylamide hydrogen atom of the catalyst, as well as other types of noncovalent catalyst-substrate interactions, are crucial for achieving high stereoselectivity. |
