Fu. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Chemistry. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Chemistry. Chemistry. Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Chemistry, 2003. Includes bibliographical references. In PART I, the design and the synthesis of planar-chiral phosphaferrocene-oxazolines, a new class of P,N-ligands, are described. The modular nature of their structure allows easy access to a number of analogues in enantiomerically pure forms, facilitating the easy tunability of the chiral environment. These ligands are then applied to several transition metal-catalyzed asymmetric reactions. In Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylations, it is established that the planar chirality of the phosphaferrocene, not the central chirality of the oxazoline subunit, is the dominant stereocontrol element. On the other hand, in Cu-catalyzed asymmetric reactions (conjugate additions of diethylzinc to acyclic enones, intramolecular Kinugasa reactions for polycyclic β-lactam synthesis, and [3+2] dipolar cycloadditions of azomethine imines to terminal alkynes), it is demonstrated that the central chirality of the oxazoline subunit is the dominant stereocontrol element, and that the planar chirality of the phosphaferrocene plays a subordinate, although significant, role. In PART II, the enantioselective desymmetrization of cyclic anhydrides and imides by carbon nucleophiles is described. By employing a Grignard reagent/chiral ligand complex as the nucleophile, a range of anhydrides and imides are effectively desymmetrized with uniformly high enantiomeric excess. In these reactions, (-)- sparteine is shown to be the ligand of choice for anhydride substrates, whereas a bisoxazoline is found to be most effective for imide substrates. by Ryo Shintani.
