ABSTRACT: The first enantioselective sequential phosphine-catalyzed (SPC as abbreviation) mode for the formation of tetrahydroquinolines with an ethynyl-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center is reported. In this SPC process, a novel [4 + 2] annulation process was devised employing α-substituted allenoates as C2 synthons (α−β′, 1,2dipole) for the first time. 3-Ethynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinolines were readily prepared in good yields and high enantioselectivities.

O

activated alkenes was also completed (Scheme 1, eq 2).5 In 2013, Huang and Marinetti independently reported the utilization of γ-substituted allenoates in phosphine-catalyzed [4 + 2] annulation reactions with activated olefins to construct spirocyclic structures, and allenoates were used as C4 synthons (α−δ, 1,4-dipole) in those studies (Scheme 1, eq 3).6 Subsequently, cyclization reactions involving substituted allenoate compounds as diverse dipoles have been reported (Scheme 1).7 In 2010, Tong8 and co-workers disclosed a novel [4 + 1] annulation of β′-acetoxy allenoates; it is noteworthy that allenoates were used as C4 synthons by the 1,4biselectrophile intermediates (Scheme 1, eq 2). Next, enantioselective [4 + 1] annulation of β′-acetoxy allenoates was also reported by the groups of Lu and Fu.9 To the best of our knowledge, besides the two reaction mechanisms based on the (1,n)-zwitterion intermediate and the 1,4-bis-electrophile intermediates of phosphine-catalyzed reactions, no other reaction mechanism has been reported. We report herein a novel sequential phosphine-catalyzed mode for the highly enantioselective formation of tetrahydroquinolines by [4 + 2] annulation reaction with α-substituted allenoates (Scheme 1, eq 4). Substituted tetrahydroquinolines are widespread in many natural products and medically synthetic molecules and exhibit a wide spectrum of significant biological activities, which have attracted considerable attention from organic and medicinal chemists.10 There are some examples of these ring systems contributing to biological activities (Figure 1a).11 Meanwhile, terminal alkynyl linking in a quaternary stereogenic center as a key structural element in numerous natural alkaloids and

ver the past decades, nucleophilic phosphine catalysis has been intensely investigated as a powerful tool for preparing structurally divergent molecules or chiral molecules.1 From the angle of mechanism, nucleophilic addition of a nucleophilic phosphine to activated alkenes, allenes, or alkynes to form a zwitterion intermediate, which is then trapped by an electrophile, is involved. Since the pioneering report of Lu’s [3 + 2] cycloaddition,2 the research paradigm of the phosphinecatalyzed cycloadditions of activated allenes has been well established in which allenoates were used as C3 synthons (Scheme 1, eq 1). Subsequently, [3 + 2] annulations have been a powerful tool to construct five-membered carbocyclic and heterocyclic compounds.3 In 2003, Kwon4 reported a novel [4 + 2] annulation of α-substituted allenoates with Nsulfonylimines, in which allenoates first act as C4 synthons (β′-γ, 1,4-dipole). Later, [4 + 2] annulation of allenoates with Scheme 1. Previous Works and This Work

bioactive molecules has led to a great demand for the efficient construction of this skeleton (Figure 1b).12 Although numerous methods have thus been developed to access tetrahydroquinoline ring skeletons, the development of new effective methods, which tolerate special functional groups, is still very important. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports on the synthesis of chiral alkynylsubstituted tetrahydroquinoline skeletons via asymmetric phosphine catalysis. Recently, 2-aminochalcones were used to construct tetrahydroquinolines and indolines.13 On the basis of our continuous interest in exploring phosphine-catalyzed domino reactions and asymmetric phosphine catalysis,14 we envisioned that α-substituted allenoates containing a leaving group could be transferred to enyne intermediates to promote [4 + 2] annulation of 2-aminochalcones with enynes to construct 3-alkynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinoline skeletons by a sequential phosphine-catalyzed process (Scheme 1, eq 4). In this SPC process, α-substituted allenoates, for the first time, act as C2 synthons of α and β′ sites. Herein, we document a novel [4 + 2] annulation reaction between 2-aminochalcones and α-substituted allenoates involving a SPC process, leading to highly enantioselective construction of 3-alkynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinoline architectures. We initiated our investigation by examining the reaction between 2-aminochalcone 1a and allenoate 2a using PPh3 (20 mol %) in CHCl3 (1.0 mL) at 25 °C (see the Supporting Information for details). To our delight, the reaction proceeded smoothly and afforded the desired product 3aa in 70% yield (Table S1, entry 1). For further optimization study, various solvents such as THF, acetone, hexane, and toluene were scanned (Table S1, entries 2−6); when THF was used, 3aa was obtained in 75% yield (Table S1, entry 2). No base could improve the yields (Table S1, entries 7−10). For the screening of nucleophilic phosphine catalysis (Table S1, entries 11−17), PhPEt2 could improve the reaction and 3aa was obtained in 82% yield (Table S1, entry 15). If a tosyl group was used instead of the Mts (mesityl-λ5-sulfanedione) group, the yield of 3aa decreased. With the optimized reaction conditions in hand, the established reaction conditions were applicable to a variety of substituted 2-aminochalcones and gave the corresponding products in moderate to high yields (Table 1). Increasing the steric bulk of the aryl groups led to a lower reactivity (Table 1, entries 1−3). It was noted that the electron-deficient aryl groups led to a higher reactivity than the electron-rich aryl groups (Table 1, entries 4−10). Unfortunately, alkyl group substituted 2-aminochalcones could not give the corresponding products because of low reactivity (Table 1, entry 11). Screening revealed that the 2-aminochalcone 1l with a 2-furyl group could also smoothly convert into the corresponding 3la in good yield (81%) (Table 1, entry 11). Several substituents

Unless otherwise specified, all reactions were carried out with 1a(0.1 mmol), 2a (0.15 mmol), PhPEt2 (20 mol %), Cs2CO3 (0.12 mmol), and 1.0 mL of THF at 25 °C. bIsolated yield. cMts = mesityl-λ5sulfanedione.

(R2), namely 5′-Br, 5′-Cl, and 5′-Me, on the aromatic ring of the aniline moiety were well-tolerated and led to a high reactivity (Table 1, entries 12−15). For α-substituted allenoates, when R3 was a variety of ester groups, the reactions converted into the corresponding 3ab and 3ac in high yields (Table 1, entries 16 and 17). Use of an Ms group instead of an Mts group also led to the corresponding tetrahydroquinolines in high yields (Table1, entries 18 and 19). After establishing a practical and highly efficient method for the synthesis of 3-alkynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinoline adducts, we next focused on the development of an enantioselective organocatalytic version. For this purpose, several catalysts, additives, and solvent combinations were evaluated with 1r and 2d as model substrates (see the Supporting Information for details, Table S2 and Table S3). To our delight, the bifunctional catalyst F in toluene delivered the desired products in high enantiomeric excesses and yields. The substituent steric effects of α-substituted allenoates were screened, and the isopropyl group led to the best result (er = 95:5). All of the 2-tosylaminochalcones generated the respective products consistently with moderate to high enantioselectivities and yields (Table 2, entries 1−13). The absolute stereochemistry of 3rd was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The substituent steric effect of 2-tosylaminochalcones obviously influenced the enantioselectivities (Table 2, entries 1−3). Unfortunately, alkyl group substituted 2-aminochalcones could not give the corresponding products because of low reactivity (Table 2, entry 8). B

Scheme 3. Control Experiments

To demonstrate the further synthetic utility of this protocol, we carried out the reaction on gram scale using 1a with 2a as the representative substrate to provide 3aa in 81% yield. Similarly, 3rd was obtained in 78% yield and high enantioselectivity (er = 90:10). The reduction of the ee value is probably due to the reaction being too long. It was noted that 3rd (> 99% ee) could be obtained by recrystallization. Self-coupling and click reaction of 3aa were achieved in good yields (Scheme 2). Meanwhile, internal alkynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinoline (5c) could be produced by metal-catalyzed cross-coupling of 3-ethynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinolines that were not directly constructed using this SPC process (see the Supporting Information for details). Control experiments (Scheme 3, eq 1) showed that 4a was obtained in 50% isolated yield from 2a using PEt2Ph (20 mol %) and Cs2CO3 (1.2 equiv) in CHCl3. The separation yield of 4a is low due to the instability of the intermediate 4a. Then the reaction of 4a and 1a under the standard conditions did not provide the desired product (Scheme 3, eq 2), but 3aa was obtained in 55% yield without Cs2CO3 (Scheme 3, eq 3). It proved that the reaction was achieved via the intermediate 4a by a SPC process. Meanwhile, the base played a role in the first catalytic cycle, and a negative result for the second catalytic cycle was found when an excess of base was used. According to the control experimental results and previous studies, a possible mechanism, involving a SPC process, was proposed to account for the formation of 3-ethynyl-substituted tetrahydroquinoline derivatives (Scheme 4). Initially, the Lee− Tong intermediate II was produced by a phosphine catalyst from α-substituted allenoates 2 via an addition and elimination reaction.8,15 Then the key intermediate 4a was obtained by the elimination of the phosphine catalyst from Int II under the

PR3 to 4a generated intermediate III. Then, nucleophilic addition of Int III to 2-aminochalcones 1 generated Int IV. Sequential proton shift and nucleophilic addition process led to the desired tetrahydroquinoline 2 after the release of catalyst PR3, accomplishing the second catalytic cycle. It is worth mentioning that the results of deuterium-labeling experiments also supported the proposed mechanism (see the Supporting Information for details). The key hydrogen-bonding interactions between the NH group of the ester are crucial for the stereochemical outcome of the reaction (see the transition state depicted in Scheme 4, b). In summary, we have unraveled a novel enantioselective SPC mode of asymmetric [4 + 2] annulation reaction between α-substituted allenes and 2-aminochalcones. In this SPC process, α-substituted allenoates were used as C2 synthons (α−β′, 1,2-dipole) for the first time. Notably, it is proven that this reaction involves a phosphine sequential catalytic process via the isolation of the intermediate 4a in the mechanistic study. It provides a new method for construction of 3-ethynylsubstituted tetrahydroquinolines in moderate to high yields and high enantioselectivities, and only one isomer was isolated in all reactions. Further diversity transformations of the products were also carried out. Further development of new annulation reactions by the SPC mode is ongoing in our laboratory.
