Enantioselective Synthesis of trans-Aryl- and -Heteroaryl-Substituted Cyclopropylboronates by Copper(I)-Catalyzed Reactions of Allylic Phosphates with a Diboron Derivative
A new asymmetric route for the synthesis of trans-2-aryl- and -heteroaryl-substituted cyclopropylboronates has been developed. (Z)-3-arylallylic phosphates were converted to the optically active products with high yield and diastereo- and enantioselectivity through a copper(I)-catalyzed reaction with a diboron derivative. Under mild reaction conditions, the reaction affords the arylcyclopropane products with a functional group and a heteroaromatic group in a highly enantioselective manner. When (E)-allylic phosphates were used as substrates, a ligand-controlled product switch between the trans and cis configurations was observed.
