Asymmetric Synthesis and Catalysis

In contrast to the widely explored methods for the asymmetric synthesis of molecules bearing a single stereocenter or adjacent stereocenters, the concurrent construction of 1,3-stereogenic centers in an enantio- and diastereoselective manner remains a challenge, especially in acyclic systems. Herein, we report an enantio- and diastereodivergent construction of 1,3-nonadjacent stereocenters bearing allenyl axial and central chirality through synergistic Pd/Cu-catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric allenylation with racemic allenylic esters. The protocol is suitable for a wide range of substrates including the challenging allenylic esters with less sterically bulky substituents and provided chiral allenylic products bearing 1,3-nonadjacent stereocenters with high levels of enantio- and diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr and >99% ee). Furthermore, several representative transformations involving axial-to-central chirality transfer were conducted, affording useful structural motifs containing nonadjacent stereocenters in a diastereodivergent manner.
