Abstract

The Mannich reaction of enantiomerically pure α-dimethylthexylsilylated trimethylsilyl enol ether (Z,S)-2 with titanium complexes of N-alkoxycarbonyl imines afforded αŽ-silylated α,β-disubstituted β-amino ketones (S,R,S)-4a-e in good to excellent yields (70-92%) and diastereomeric excesses (de ≥ 96%). Removal of the directing silyl group gave N-protected and anti-configured β-amino ketones (R,S)-5a-e in excellent yields (90-95%) and stereoselectivities (de, ee ≥ 96%- > 98%).

Asymmetric Mannich Reactions: Method A: 1.2 Equiv potassium hydride was added to a solution of 1.1 equiv carbamate 3 in dry CH2Cl2 (5 mL/mmol 3) under argon. After stirring for 1 h at r.t. the reaction mixture was cooled to -78 °C. After addition of 1.1-1.5 equiv TiCl4 (1.0 N in CH2Cl2) and stirring for 20 min at this temperature the solution was cooled to -90 °C. 1 equiv Silyl enol ether 2 in dry CH2Cl2 (1 mL/mmol 2) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for 75 min at
-90 °C → -78 °C, then quenched with a saturated solution of NaHCO3, extracted with CH2Cl2 and dried over MgSO4. After evaporation of the solvent, the crude Mannich adducts 4 were purified by flash chromatography (SiO2, n-pentane/Et2O). Method B: A solution of 1.1 equiv carbamate 3 in dry CH2Cl2 (5 mL/mmol) under argon was cooled to -78 °C. After addition of 1.1-1.5 TiCl4 (1.0 N in CH2Cl2) and stirring for 20 min at this temperature the solution was cooled to -90 °C. 1 equiv Silyl enol ether 2 in dry CH2Cl2 (1 mL/mmol 2) was added dropwise. (Further procedure see Method A).
