Chiral aminophosphines derived from hydroxyproline and their application in allene–imine [4 + 2] annulation

Abstract

A robust synthetic route from L-hydroxyproline (L-Hyp) to phosphines has established an expandable library of six chiral aminophosphines, which were then applied to the phosphine-catalyzed [4 + 2] allene-imine annulation. The enantioinduction in the annulations-induced by a purely steric effect-were moderate (up to 57% ee). A switch of the reaction site from the γ- to the β'-carbon atom of the allenoate was observed during the annulations performed using sterically demanding chiral phosphines.
