Asym. C-H functionalization of indoles from Rh2(OAc)4 and chiral phosphoric acid co-catalyzed reactions of aryl diazoacetates with indoles has been investigated. Through mechanistic study regarding to the proton transfer pathway of the C-H functionalization of indoles, a new strategy to achieve the asym. C-H functionalization of indoles from metal carbenoids via enantioselective protonation has been proposed. We initially carried out a deuterium isotope experiments in order to obtain more insight into the proton transfer process of the C-H functionalization of indoles, and the experiments indicated an indirect proton transfer in the reaction. A proton-transfer shuttle such as H2O was needed to complete the reaction. The observation provides us an opportunity to design a chiral proton-transfer shuttle to achieve the asym. C-H functionalization. In this paper, Rh2(OAc)4 catalyzed diazo decomposition of a aryl diazoacetate generates a metal carbenoid. Reaction of the metal carbenoid with an indole at C-3 position generates a zwitterionic intermediate. A bifunctional chiral phosphoric acid serves as a chiral proton shuttle and helps the proton transfer process via an enantioselective protonation to finish the reaction in high yield and enantioselectivity. A number of indoles including N-alkyl, aryl, silyl and a number of a-aryl-a-diazoesters are well tolerated under the established catalytic conditions, providing good to high enantioselectivity (up to 94% ee) in excellent yield (up to 99% yield). A representative procedure for the enantioselective C-H functionalization of indoles is as following: A mixture of 6-chloro-N-methylindole (1e) (41 mg, 0.25 mmol), transition metal catalyst Rh2(OAc)4 (1 mg, 0.0025 mmol, 1 mol%), chiral phosphoric acid co-catalyst (R)-4j (3.8 mg, 0.005 mmol, 2 mol%) and 4 Å MS (100 mg) in 1 mL of toluene was stirred at the 0°C. Me phenyl(diazo)acetate (2a) (53 mg, 0.3 mmol) in 1 Ml of toluene was added over 1 h period of time via a syringe pump. After completion of the addition, the reaction was stirred for addnl. 5 min at the same temperature Solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give corresponding crude product, I. The crude product was purified by flask chromatog. on silica gel (eluent: EtOAc/light petroleum ether, V : V = 1 : 40 ∼ 1 : 10) to give the pure product 3q in 92% yield with 94% ee. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (11bS)-4-Hydroxy-2,6-di(phenanthren-9-yl)dinaphtho[2,1-d:1′,2′-f][1,3,2]dioxaphosphepine 4-oxide (cas: 1043567-32-3Electric Literature of C48H29O4P).
