Title: Asymmetric α-amination of 4-substituted pyrazolones catalyzed by a chiral Gd(OTf)3/N,N'-dioxide complex: highly enantioselective synthesis of 4-amino-5-pyrazolone derivatives. Author: Yang Z, Wang Z, Bai S, Liu X, Lin L, Feng X. Journal: Org Lett; 2011 Feb 18; 13(4):596-9. PubMed ID: 21214254. Abstract: The asymmetric α-amination of 4-substituted pyrazolones with azodicarboxylates was investigated for the first time, employing an N,N'-dioxide gadolinium(III) complex as the catalyst. The novel transformations exhibited high yield, and 4-amino-5-pyrazolone derivatives bearing a chiral quaternary center were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (90%-97% ee) for a broad scope of 5-pyrazolones by using 1 mol % or only 0.05 mol % of catalyst.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
