The field of the invention relates to tetrahydropyran compounds and methods for synthesizing tetrahydropyran compounds. In particular, the field of the invention relates to enantioselective cross dehydrogenative coupling reactions for synthesizing tetrahydropyran compounds
Tetrahydropyrans (THPs) are key structural elements in numerous bioactive natural products and medicinally relevant compounds.1 Due to the prevalence of THPs, multiple stereoselective processes have been developed for their construction, including Prins cyclizations,2 hetero-Diels-Alder reactions,3 and intramolecular nucleophilic conjugate additions.4 Established methods to construct THPs in an enantioselective fashion typically focus on conjugate additions5 or activation by enamine/iminium intermediates,6 two approaches that are deployed extensively in total synthesis. Inspired by natural product targets of interest in our laboratory, as well as small molecules possessing intriguing biological activity, we envisioned a complementary and direct method for the enantioselective synthesis of substituted tetrahydropyran-4-ones. The inventors have disclosed the use of β-hydroxy dioxinones as nucleophiles with aldehydes and isatins to undergo mild and stereoselective cyclizations in the presence of catalytic Lewis or Brønsted acids to access enantioenriched THPs.7 The inventors' efforts in this area have enabled total syntheses of various natural products including exiguolide,8 neopeltolide,9 okilactomycin,10 and other naturally occurring compounds containing THPs.11 Conceptually, moving beyond preformed nucleophiles such as dioxinones to simple β-ketoester systems presents opportunities for enantiocontrol, most likely through two-point/chelate binding, but also requires different activation modes to operate simultaneously in a single reaction flask.
Here, the inventors disclose an enantioselective cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction which may be utilized to prepare tetrahydropyrans and derivatives thereof. The disclosed CDC reaction combines in situ Lewis acid activation of a nucleophile together with the oxidative formation of a transient oxocarbenium electrophile, which leads to a productive and highly enantioselective CDC reaction. The disclosed CDC reaction represents one of the first successful applications of CDC for the enantioselective couplings of unfunctionalized ethers. The disclosed CDC reactions may be utilized to access valuable tetrahydropyran motifs found in many natural products and bioactive small molecules.
Disclosed are enantioselective cross dehydrogenative coupling reactions for synthesizing tetrahydropyran compounds. Novel tetrahydropyran compounds may be synthesized by the disclosed methods as well as tetrahydropyran precursor compounds for synthesizing various naturally occurring compounds. The enantioselective cross dehydrogenative coupling reactions utilize in situ Lewis Acid activation in combination with oxidative formation of an oxocarbenium ion to provide a highly efficient and selective coupling reaction for synthesizing tetrahydropyran compounds.

Title—An Enantioselective Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling Catalysis Approach to Substituted Tetrahydropyrans
Abstract
An enantioselective cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction to access tetrahydropyrans has been developed. This process combines in situ Lewis acid activation of a nucleophile in concert with the oxidative formation of a transient oxocarbenium electrophile, leading to a productive and highly enantioselective CDC. These advances represent one of the first successful applications of CDC for the enantioselective couplings of unfunctionalized ethers. This system provides efficient access to valuable THP motifs found in many natural products and bioactive small molecules.
Introduction
Tetrahydropyrans (THPs) are key structural elements in numerous bioactive natural products and medicinally relevant compounds.1 Due to the prevalence of THPs, multiple stereoselective processes have been developed for their construction, including Prins cyclizations,2 hetero-Diels-Alder reactions,3 and intramolecular nucleophilic conjugate additions.4 Established methods to construct THPs in an enantioselective fashion typically focus on conjugate additions5 or activation by enamine/iminium intermediates,6 two approaches that are deployed extensively in total synthesis. Inspired by natural product targets of interest in our laboratory, as well as small molecules possessing intriguing biological activity, we envisioned a complementary and direct method for the enantioselective synthesis of substituted tetrahydropyran-4-ones. We have disclosed the use of β-hydroxy dioxinones as nucleophiles with aldehydes and isatins to undergo mild and stereoselective cyclizations in the presence of catalytic Lewis or Brønsted acids to access enantioenriched THPs.7 Our efforts in this area have enabled total syntheses of various natural products including exiguolide,8 neopeltolide,9 okilactomycin,10 and other naturally occurring compounds containing THPs.11 Conceptually, moving beyond preformed nucleophiles such as dioxinones to simple β-ketoester systems presents opportunities for enantiocontrol, most likely through two-point/chelate binding, but also requires different activation modes to operate simultaneously in a single reaction flask.
Cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reactions have emerged as powerful approaches to forge C—C bonds from inert C—H bonds.12 As a subset of C—H functionalization processes,13 CDC reactions are attractive because they do not require prefunctionalized starting materials, relying instead on oxidative activation followed by net loss of H2 to facilitate C—C bond formation. Specifically, 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) a strong oxidizing agent, promotes the formation of stabilized carbocations by benzylic and allylic C—H bond activation, and subsequent C—C bond formation.14 Mechanistically, DDQ mediated CDC reactions proceed via single electron transfer to form stabilized radical cations, followed by hydrogen atom abstraction to form the electrophilic coupling partner (e.g., oxocarbenium ion, iminium ion). Floreancig has effectively demonstrated that DDQ activation can facilitate racemic access to carbocycles and heterocycles via the oxidation of allylic ethers.15 Although enantioselective CDC reactions have been reported during the last decade,16 there is a dearth of highly enantioselective CDC reactions using oxocarbenium ion electrophiles in contrast to a plethora of enantioselective CDC reactions using iminium electrophiles (Scheme 1b).17 A major challenge to this approach is successfully integrating strongly oxidative conditions for oxocarbenium ion formation (e.g., DDQ) with stereodefining catalysts necessary for nucleophile activation (e.g., chiral Lewis acids) to a) promote a productive reaction, and b) induce stereocontrol around a transient, highly reactive oxocarbenium ion. Here, we report an enantioselective CDC of β-ketoesters with oxocarbenium ions to access substituted tetrahydropyrans with high yields and enantioselectivity through a merged chiral Lewis acid/oxidation strategy (Scheme 1c).

Results and Discussion
We initiated our investigations of this chiral Lewis acid/oxidant process using β-ketoester substrate 1a and found that Cu(II)-bisoxazoline (BOX) complex L1.Cu(OTf)2 gave the desired product 2a as the sole diastereomer in 72% yield and 92:8 er at −70° C. (Scheme 2). Additional screening with chiral BOX ligands L2-L5 identified ligand L3 as optimal, furnishing 2a in 83% yield and 95:5 er upon further reaction dilution to 0.02 M.
After optimization the basic asymmetric CDC reaction with β-ketoester 1a, the general scope was explored (Table 1). When the aromatic ring on the cinnamyl ether was substituted with electron-donating groups at its para, meta, or ortho position, the reactions provided desirable tetrahydropyran-4-ones 2c-2g in high yields and stereoselectivity with exception of 2b. We observed that substrate 1b possessing a p-methoxycinnamyl group produced side products due to over-oxidation. Furthermore, reaction of 1b without a Cu(II) catalyst produced rac-2b in 70% yield in only 1 hour, suggesting the competitive background reaction of this highly reactive substrate also contributed to the observed reduction in stereoselectivity.
aSee Materials and Methods below for reaction details. Er determined by chiral-phase SFC analysis. Products 2 were obtained with >20:1 dr (trans/cis).
bPerformed at −30° C.
We then evaluated substrates substituted with electron-withdrawing groups at para, meta, and ortho positions. The reactions of 1h-1k provided desired products 2h-2 k in moderate yields and high stereoselectivity. The results showed that high yields and stereoselectivity were observed for 1l and 1m containing naphthyl groups. The reaction of 1n containing a trisubstituted cinnamyl alkene afforded 2n in 87% yield and 97:3 er, while heteroaryl and conjugated ethers 1o-1q gave tetrahydropyran-4-ones 2o-2 q in somewhat decreased yields and stereoselectivities. A survey of benzyl ethers revealed that only 4-methoxy-substituted substrates 1r-1t were capable of producing desired products 2r-2t with high stereoselectivity and moderate yield. Under the current conditions, we have not observed productive reactions using propargylic, unsubstituted allylic or ether substrates leading to tetrahydrofurans (i.e., 5 atom tether length). Instead, over-oxidation or no oxidation is observed (see Supp. Info.). However, with this successful proof of concept, investigations with various oxidation methods and Lewis acids to engage an even larger range of substrate classes are ongoing.
Attempts to access enantioenriched tetrahydropyran-4-ones without the β-ketoester were unsuccessful, as enol acetate 3 provided racemic 4 in 68% yield (Scheme 3a). This observation supports the hypothesis that the β-ketoester is crucial for stereoselectivity by coordination with the Cu(II)/BOX catalyst. In an attempt to probe whether an enantioselective intermolecular CDC reaction was possible, cinnamyl methyl ether was exposed to methyl acetoacetate in the presence of L3.Cu(OTf)2 to afford 5 (Scheme 3b). Although the intermediate oxocarbenium ion could potentially undergo both 1,2- and 1,4-addition, the 1,2-addition adduct 5 was observed (as detected by NMR spectroscopy). Unfortunately, attempts to isolate 5 have been unsuccessful, due to facile elimination of the □-methoxy group to form enone 6 (2.7:1 E/Z mixture).
The stereochemical model of the reaction with 1a, Cu(II)/BOX and DDQ is based on a reported X-ray crystal structure of [L1.Cu(H2O)2](SbF6)2 by replacement of H2O ligands with the oxocarbenium ion of 1a (
A practical advantage of this strategy is the ease of synthetically elaborating these β-keto esters (Scheme 4). Conventional heating in DMF/H2O provided the decarboxylated product 4 in 77% yield, where methylation of 2a gave 3,3-disubstituted tetrahydropyran-4-one 7 in excellent yield with 13:1 dr. Exposure of β-ketoesters 2a or 7 to L-selectride provided the corresponding tetrahydropyran-4-ol 8 or 9, while LiAlH4 reduction of 7 furnished diol 10.20 Functionalization of the 6-position of the 7 has also been demonstrated. First, cyclic enone 11 was prepared via dehydrogenation using 1 atm of O2 in the presence of Pd(TFA)2 in DMSO.21 Rh(I)-catalyzed 1,4-addition of phenylboronic acid produced 12,22 and conjugate addition of an alkyl cuprate provided 13 as the trans diastereomers in both reactions.20,23 Lastly, Mukaiyama-Michael addition proceeded to afford 14 with 10:1 diasteromeric ratio.23,24 Notably, while many synthetic methods exist for cis-2,6-tetrahydropyran structures,25 there are far fewer preparations for trans-2,6-tetrahydropyrans.26
To substitute DDQ as a reagent, we investigated complementary oxidation processes to form the oxocarbenium ion. A recent report of photoredox catalysis being used to generate oxocarbenium ions27 inspired us to leverage this approach and trap the oxocarbenium ion with our tethered carbon nucleophile. Gratifyingly, the use of Sc(OTf)3, Ir[dF(CF3)ppy]2(dtbbpy)PF6, blue LEDs, and bromochloroform provided access to rac-2a in 90% yield (Scheme 5). To date, these photoredox conditions are not yet compatible with various chiral ligands to induce enantioselectivity.28
In summary, a chiral Lewis acid-catalyzed intramolecular cross-dehydrogenative coupling of β-ketoesters has been developed. This oxidative process utilizes unfunctionalized starting materials to provide chiral 2-substituted tetrahydropyrans with excellent yields and stereoselectivity. The in situ generation of both nucleophilic and electrophilic partners specifically provides new opportunities for enantioselective oxocarbenium ion-driven reactions and CDC processes in general. Investigations in our laboratory towards leveraging this chiral Lewis acid/oxidation system with new substrate classes as well as the use of visible light mediated oxidation in asymmetric transformations are currently underway.
Materials and Methods
1. General Information
All reactions were carried out under a nitrogen atmosphere in oven-dried glassware with magnetic stirring. All organic solvents were purified by passage through a bed of activated alumina. (See Pangborn, A. B.; Giardelo, M. A.; Grubbs, R. H.; Rosen, R. K.; Timmers, F. J. Organometallics 1996, 15, 1518). Purification of reaction products was carried out by flash chromatography using EM Reagent or Silicycle silica gel 60 (230-400 mesh). Analytical thin layer chromatography was performed on EM Reagent 0.25 mm silica gel 60-F plates. Visualization was accomplished with UV light and ceric ammonium nitrate stain, potassium permanganate stain or ninhydrin stain followed by heating. 1H NMR spectroscopy spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance III 400 or 500 MHz w/direct cryoprobe (400 or 500 MHz) spectrometer and are reported in ppm using solvent as an internal standard (CDCl3 at 7.26 ppm). Data are reported as (s=singlet, d=doublet, t=triplet, q=quartet, m=multiplet, br=broad; coupling constant(s) in Hz, integration). Proton-decoupled 13C NMR spectroscopy spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance 500 MHz w/ direct cryoprobe (125 MHz) spectrometer and are reported in ppm using solvent as an internal standard (CDCl3 at 77.16 ppm). SFC analysis was performed on an Agilent 1290 Infinity, using Chiralpak IA-3, IB-3, IC-3, ID-3, and IG-3 columns. Mass spectra data were obtained on a Varian 1200 Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer and Micromass Quadro II Spectrometer or a WATERS Acquity-H UPLC-MS with a signal quad detector (ESI). L.Cu(OTf)2 complexes were prepared according to literature procedures. (See Evans, D. A.; Peterson, G. S.; Johnson, J. S.; Barnes, D. M.; Campos, K. R.; Woerpel, K. A. J. Org. Chem. 1998, 63, 4541). Stereochemical models were optimized using the Spartan 08 program implement of semi-empirical PM3 calculation. (See Stewart, J. J. P. J. Comput. Chem. 1989, 10, 209).
2. General Procedure for Synthesis of β-Keto Esters (1
Acrylonitrile (0.39 mL, 6.0 mmol) was added to a mixture of the corresponding cinnamyl alcohol (5.0 mmol) and 50 μL of aqueous NaOH (40%) at room temperature (If the corresponding cinnamyl alcohol was solid, 2 mL of benzene or THF was added). The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 h at same temperature, then neutralized with aqueous HCl (1 N), and diluted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with 5% aqueous NaOH followed by brine, evaporated in vacuo, and dried thoroughly to afford the desired compound. The crude compound was used for the next steps without purification. (See Krishna, T. R.; Jayaraman, N, J. Org. Chem. 2003, 68, 9694).
To an oven dried 100 mL 3 neck round bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser under N2 was added a magnetic stir bar, Zinc (1.63 g, 25 mmol), and 15 mL of THF. The solution was heated to reflux, and then 0.25 mL of methyl bromoacetate was added slowly to activate the zinc (gray color to hunter green). Once the zinc was activated, the corresponding nitrile was added, followed by slow addition of 1.87 mL of methyl bromoacetate (20 mmol) over 1 h. The reaction stirred for 2 h, and was then removed from heat. The saturated NaHCO3 solution was added to quench the reaction, followed by addition of diethyl ether. The heterogeneous solution was filtered over a pad of Celite with diethyl ether. The aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether, dried and concentrated in vacuo. The 2.86 mL of AcOH (50 mmol), 10 mL of THF, and 10 mL of H2O were added to the crude compound. The reaction stirred for 1 h at ambient temperature, and then saturated NaHCO3 solution was added to quench the reaction. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate, dried and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexanes:EtOAc=4:1) to give the corresponding β-keto esters 1. (The β-keto esters 1 were isolated with the corresponding enol tautomer in 11:1 ratio.)

CDC Reaction of Unsuccessful Substrates
Under optimized conditions, we examined a few more substrates 1u-1y (as shown above). We observed that reaction of 1u, 1v and 1y gave trace amount of desired products after 24 hours even upon warming to room temperature, and starting materials were isolated in >85% yield. The reaction of allyl ether 1w provided overoxidized side products, but the desired product was not obtained. Furthermore, we attempted to enantioselectivity access tetrahydrofurans using our optimized reaction conditions; however, 1x did not provide the desired product upon extensive reaction testing. In the reaction of 1x, cyclic acetal compounds S2x were obtained (see below).

Synthesis of Enol Acetate 3
To a solution of cinnamyl bromide (0.74 mL, 5.0 mmol) and 3-butyn-1-ol (0.45 mL, 6.0 mmol) in THF was added sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 300 mg, 7.5 mmol) at 0° C. The solution was stirred for 3 h at ambient temperature and then saturated NH4Cl solution was added to quench the reaction, followed by addition of ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate, dried and concentrated in vacuo.
