Abstract

Hydrophosphinylation of N,N-dibenzyl-α-amino aldehydes with ethyl allylphosphinate in the presence of (S)-ALB afforded anti-β-amino-α-hydroxy(allyl)phosphinates in high diastereoselectivity. The hydrophosphinylation product was transformed to a potentially useful transition state mimic for hydrolysis of dipeptides.

Genaral Procedure for the Hydrophosphinylation of 3a-c in the Presence of ( S )-ALB. To a solution of ethyl allylphosphinate (804 mg, 6.0 mmol) in THF (4 mL) was added 0.1 M THF solution of (S)-ALB (8 mL, 0.8 mmol), prepared from (S)-BINOL (458 mg, 1.6 mmol) and LiAlH4 (30.4 mg, 0.8 mmol) in situ, and a solution of 2a-c (4.0 mmol) in THF (8 mL) at 0 °C under stirring. After being stirred for 12 h at the same temperature, the mixture was diluted with H2O and extracted with CHCl3. The combined extracts were washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. Removal of solvent gave a residue, which was chromatographed on silica gel (hexane-EtOAc = 2:1) to give syn-3a-c and anti-3a-c.

For improving the syn-diastereoselectivity, we also examined hydrophosphinylation of 2b using other types of binaphthol-modified heterobimetallic complexes [(R)-LPB [21] and (R)-GaLB [22] ]. However, the syn-selectivity was not observed. The (R)-LPB catalyzed reaction showed moderate anti-selectivity (syn-3b:anti-3b = 22:78). A poor anti-selectivity (syn-3b:anti-3b = 44:51) was observed with (R)-GaLB.
