Enantioselective 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Azomethine Imines with Propioloylpyrazoles Induced by Chiral pi-Cation Catalysts
We developed 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of azomethine imines with propioloylpyrazoles catalyzed by a chiral copper(II) complex of 3-(2-naphthyl)-L-alanine amide. The asymmetric environment created by intramolecular pi-cation interaction and the N-alkyl group of the chiral ligand gives the corresponding adducts in high yields with excellent enantioselectivity. This is the first successful method for the catalytic enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine imines with internal alkyne derivatives to give fully substituted pyrazolines.
