A highly stereoselective protocol for the (3 + 2)-annulation of biphenyl-bridged seven-membered cyclic -sulfonylimines with γ-hydroxy-α,β-unsaturated ketones was developed. The reactions afforded a wide range of chiral [5.7]-fused ε-sultams bearing N-adjacent 1,3-stereocenters in excellent yields (93-98% yields) and high enantio/diastereoselectivities (up to >99% ee, >20:1 d.

Article Synopsis
  • Asymmetric electrocatalysis presents a promising method for creating chiral molecules through innovative reaction pathways.
  • The study introduces a novel approach to paired electrocatalysis, enabling simultaneous activation of reactants on both electrodes, which is more efficient than traditional methods.
  • This method utilizes Co-catalyzed hydrogen transfer on the anode and Ni-catalyzed sulfonylimine reduction on the cathode, successfully producing chiral amines with a high enantioselectivity of up to 96% ee.

A highly enantioselective Mannich reaction of biphenyl-bridged seven-membered cyclic N-sulfonylimines with methyl alkyl ketones is disclosed in this study. The reaction was performed under organocatalysis by using a quinine-derived primary amine as the catalyst in combination with a Brønsted acid as the co-catalyst. High yields (up to 89 %) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97 % ee) were observed.

The synthesis of polycyclic compounds is of high interest due to the prevalence of these motifs in drugs and natural products. Herein, we report on the stereoselective construction of 3D bicyclic scaffolds and azetidine derivatives by modulation of N-sulfonylimines to achieve either [4+2]- or [2+2]-cycloaddition reactions. The utility of the method was established by further modulation of the product.
