Abstract
We herein report a protocol for the asymmetric 1,4-addition of hydantoins to various Michael acceptors by utilizing Cinchona alkaloid-based chiral quaternary ammonium salt catalysts. Various products were obtained with moderate to good enantioselectivities and accompanying computational investigations helped to identify key interactions responsible for the observed selectivity. DFT calculations along with non-covalent interaction plots reveal the presence of numerous stabilizing non-classical hydrogen bonding interactions along with other non-covalent interactions between the chiral quaternary ammonium salt and hydantoin molecule in the C−C bond forming transition states leading to the formation of the products. In addition, a first proof-of-concept for an analogous a-sulfanylation reaction, albeit with poor selectivity, is reported as well.
期刊介绍：
Helvetica Chimica Acta, founded by the Swiss Chemical Society in 1917, is a monthly multidisciplinary journal dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge in all disciplines of chemistry (organic, inorganic, physical, technical, theoretical and analytical chemistry) as well as research at the interface with other sciences, where molecular aspects are key to the findings. Helvetica Chimica Acta is committed to the publication of original, high quality papers at the frontier of scientific research. All contributions will be peer reviewed with the highest possible standards and published within 3 months of receipt, with no restriction on the length of the papers and in full color.
