The Application of 1,2-Oxazinanes as Chiral Cyclic Weinreb Amide-Type Auxiliaries Leading to a Three-Component, One-Pot Reaction

Gerhard Hilt, Ludmila Hermann, Jan Fährmann

1,2-Oxazines were synthesised via a copper-catalysed aerobic acyl nitroso Diels–Alder reaction from 1,4-disubstituted 1,3-dienes and N-Boc-hydroxylamine. From this, 1,2-oxazinanes were obtained in a novel follow-up reaction path. The stability of several 1,2-oxazines and 1,2-oxazinanes towards organometallic compounds was tested to rate their operability as cyclic chiral Weinreb amide auxiliaries. 3,6-Di-tert-butyl-1,2-oxazinane gave the best results and was introduced as a chiral Weinreb amide-type auxiliary to yield chiral α-substituted ketones in a diastereomeric ratio of up to 98:2. The removal of the auxiliary can be performed with BuLi to form unsymmetrical α-chiral ketones. Thereafter, the chiral auxiliary can be re-isolated and purified by sublimation under vacuum.
