Enantioenriched Methylene-Bridged Benzazocanes Synthesis by Organocatalytic and Superacid Activations

Abstract

Achieving in a straightforward way the synthesis of enantioenriched elaborated three-dimensional molecules related to bioactive natural products remains a long-standing quest in organic synthesis. Enantioselective organocatalysis potentially offers a unique opportunity to solve this problem, especially when combined with complementary modes of activation. Here, we report the sequential association of organocatalytic and superacid activations of simple linear achiral readily available precursors to promote the formation of unique highly elaborated chiral methylene-bridged benza-zocanes exhibiting three to five fully-controlled stereocenters. This peculiar backbone, difficult to assemble by standard synthetic approaches, is closely related to bioactive natural and synthetic morphinans and benzomorphans. The formation of a highly reactive chiral 7-membered ring N-acyl iminium superelectrophilic ion, evidenced by low-temperature in situ NMR experiments, triggers a challenging stereoselective Frie-del-Crafts-type cyclization.
