Proline-based organocatalyst-mediated asymmetric aldol reaction of acetone with substituted aromatic aldehydes: An experimental and theoretical study
(TUBITAK, 2020) Arslan, Nevin; Ercan, Selami; Pirinççi̇oğlu, Necmettin
This work involves a facile synthesis of three (S)-proline-based organocatalysts with C2 symmetry and their effects in enantioselective aldol reaction of acetone with substituted aromatic aldehydes. Moderate enantioselectivities (up to 61% ee) were obtained depending on the nature of the substituents on the aryl ring. Computational calculations at HF/6-31 + G(d) level were employed to underline the enantioselectivity imposed by all the organocatalysts. Higher calculations at B3LYP/6-311 ++ G(d,p) scrf=(solvent=dichloromethane)//B3LYP/6-31 + G(d) levels of theory were also performed for the aldol reaction of acetone with benzaldehyde and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde catalyzed by 1. The computational outcomes were consistent with those produced by experimental results and they were valuable to elucidate the mechanism for the observed stereoselectivity.
