The Synthesis of Chiral Hmpa Analogues

Abstract

In connection with our interest in alkoxide accelerated C–-C bond cleavage/rearrangements1 we were intrigued by the solvent trispyrollidinophos-phoramide (TPPA) 1.2 This commercially available3 material is more polar than HMPA. The well known activation of enolate and carbanion reactions by HMPA4 and the current interest5 in asymmetric catalysis suggested that chiral TPPA analogues might offer a convenient entry into a new series of chiral ligands for potential asymmetric organometallic reactions. Chiral phosphoramides of this type possess the distinct advantage over chiral crown ethers6 of ease of synthesis. They sufferfrom the same disadvantage: the chiral environment surrounds the cation, whereas the asymmetry of reaction intermediates usually involves the anion.
