第五節 添加剤の検討
本反応において、マグネシウム塩 7 のハロゲン原子が臭化マグネシウムとして脱離する ことが、触媒化の妨げになっていると考えている。そこで、臭化物塩を加えることでハロ ゲン原子が再生され、触媒化が実現できるのではないか、と考えた(Scheme 11)。
この考えの基、添加剤の検討を行った(Table 11)。20 mol %の配位子3i存在下で、臭化リ チウム、臭化マグネシウム・ジエチルエーテル錯体、テトラブチルアンモニウムブロミド をそれぞれ加えて反応を行ったが、改善は見られなかった(entries 2-4)。全体的にエノール 化が競合し、化学収率が低下する傾向が見られたため、無機塩の添加には限界があると考 えている。
現段階では触媒化は達成できていないが、適切なフェノール系化合物を加えることで、
配位子量の低減が可能になるのではないか、と期待している(Scheme 12)。

結語
以上筆者は、新規BINOL誘導体を不斉配位子として利用することで、アリールGrignard 試薬を直接求核剤としたケトンの不斉1,2−付加反応を開発した。以下にその成果を述べる。
1. 3,3’位に様々なアルキル鎖を有する新規 BINOL 誘導体を合成し、これらをアリール
Grignard試薬とアリールアルキルケトン間の付加反応に適用することで、効果的に不斉
誘起を促す新規配位子を見出すことに成功した。本反応は、アリールGrignard試薬を直 接求核剤とした初の不斉反応であり、単純ケトンとGrignard試薬という入手容易な原料 から、非常に簡便かつ迅速に多様な光学活性第三級ジアリールアルコールを合成するこ とができる。反応に使用した配位子は、定量的かつ容易に回収、再利用することが可能 である。
2. これまで不斉空間の構築に不向きとされていたアルキル鎖によって立体を制御した珍 しい反応系である。本研究から、不斉配位子設計における新たな方向性として、嵩高い アルキル鎖を提示することができたと考えている。今後、アルキル鎖を有する不斉配位 子の更なるライブラリー構築、ならびにその他の不斉反応への応用が期待できる。
3. 不斉誘起メカニズムの解明に向けた検討の過程で、効果的な不斉誘起にはジマグネシウ ム塩の形成が不可欠であること、また、配位子は50 mol %まで減量できることを明らか にした。現在のところ、反応後に配位子が生成物から解離することができず、複合体を 形成していると考えている。添加剤等加えることで、この解離を促進することが可能と なれば、不斉触媒反応への展開が期待できる。
本反応系は、既存のアリール金属試薬を用いた反応と比較し、より調製が容易なGrignard 試薬のみ用いていることが特徴であり、低コスト化、余分な金属廃棄物の低減等につなが る。配位子量の更なる低減化を達成することによって、他の追随を許さない画期的な触媒 的不斉合成法となり得る。今後より詳細なメカニズムの解明とともに、不斉触媒化、生物 活性物質の合成等に応用されることを期待する。

General Methods
Melting points (Mp) are uncorrected. 1H and 13C NMR spectra were measured in CDCl3 with JEOL JNM-ECX400 spectrometer. Tetramethylsilane (TMS) (δ = 0 ppm) and CDCl3 (δ = 77.0 ppm) served as internal standards for 1H and 13C NMR, respectively. Infrared spectra were recorded on JEOL JIR 6500-W. Mass spectra were measured with JEOL JMS-DX303HF mass spectrometer.
Optical rotations were recorded on JASCO P-1010 polarimeter. High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) was performed on JASCO P-980 and UV-1575. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analysis was carried out using Merck silica gel plates. Visualization was accomplished with UV light and anisaldehyde. Column chromatography was performed using Kanto Chemical Silica Gel 60N (spherical, neutral, 63-210 μm). All reactions were performed under argon atmosphere using glassware equipped with a rubber septum and a magnetic stirring bar.
Solvents and Chemicals
Dry tetrahydrofuran (dehydrated) and phenylmagnesium chloride (2b) was purchased from Kanto Chemical. All other Grignard reagents were prepared under typical procedure. Ligands 3b was purchased as a (R)-isomer and used without purification. Ligands 3a49, 3c50 and ketone 1f51, 1h52 and styryl bromide53 were prepared by the literature methods. All other chemicals were purified based on standard procedures or used as received otherwise noted.
Typical Procedure for Preparation of Grignard Reagent (2a) in Et2O
Bromobenzene (0.5 mL, 4.75 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) was added dropwise to the mixture of Mg (127 mg, 5.2 mmol, 1.1 equiv.) and Et2O (2.7 mL) under argon atmosphere at room temperature. The reaction was exothermic and maintained at reflux. After the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h at rt, Ph-MgBr (2a) was generated as approximately 1.48 M Et2O solution. The concentration was determined by neutralization titrated with I2 and Na2S2O3.
All other Grignard reagents 2c-2n were prepared from the corresponding aryl or alkyl bromide and Mg as approximately 1.5 M THF solution. 2o was prepared from nBu-MgBr and phenylacetylene. These reagents were used without titration.

The enantiomeric excess was determined to be 90% ee by chiral HPLC with Daicel Chiralpak OJ column (0.46 cm φ × 25 cm) [eluent: Hexane/IPA = 19/1; flow rate: 1.0 mL/min; detection: 254 nm;
tR: 12.5 min (S), 18.7 min (R)].
Asymmetric 1,2-addition between ketone 1i and Grignard reagent 2j (Table 6, entry 7).
According to the typical procedure A, a solution of 4-fluorophenylmagnesium bromide (2j) in THF (1.52 M, 1.15 mL, 1.75 mmol, 3.5 equiv.) was added to the mixture of acetophenone (1i) in THF (1.03 M, 0.49 mL, 0.5 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) and ligand 3i (227.3 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in THF (0.5 mL) at –45 °C. The crude product was purified by columm chromatography (Hexane/CH2Cl2 = 1/1–1/2, SiO2 6 g) to furnish the product 4m (90.0 mg, 83% yield, 94% ee).

The enantiomeric excess was determined to be 94% ee by chiral HPLC with Daicel Chiralpak AD-H column (0.46 cm φ × 25 cm) [eluent: Hexane/IPA = 99/1; flow rate: 0.8 mL/min; detection:
254 nm; tR: 40.7 min (R), 42.0 min (S)].
Asymmetric 1,2-addition between ketone 1i and Grignard reagent 2k (Table 6, entry 8).
According to the typical procedure A, a solution of 4-chlorophenylmagnesium bromide (2k) in THF (1.0 M, 1.75 mL, 1.75 mmol, 3.5 equiv.) was added to the mixture of acetophenone (1i) in THF (1.03 M, 0.49 mL, 0.5 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) and ligand 3i (227.3 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in THF (0.5 mL) at –45 °C. The crude product was purified by columm chromatography (Hexane/CH2Cl2 = 1/1–1/2, SiO2 6 g) to furnish the product ent-4e (81.4 mg, 70% yield, 97% ee).
