| Popis | We developed a novel process for the asymmetric transfer hydroxymethylation between formaldehyde surrogates and activated isoindolinones. Bench-stable solid formaldehyde surrogates offer many advantages, such as no water presence, better solubility in organic solvents, and superior reactivity over conventionally used aqueous formalin, paraformaldehyde, or trioxane. However, they have never been systematically tested in asymmetric reactions. After the catalysts screening, the selection of the most suitable surrogate, and reaction conditions optimization, the enantioenriched hydroxymethylated adducts were delivered with good to excellent yields (48–96%) and enantiopurities (81:19 – 97:3 e.r). The substrate scope tested on 34 entries showed the considerable generality of the developed asymmetric transformation. A scale-up experiment and multiple enantioselective downstream transformations were also carried out, suggesting the prospective synthetic utility of the products. |
