The appropriate choice of redox mediator can avoid electrode passivation and overpotential, which strongly inhibit the efficient activation of substrates in electrolysis. 2879-20-1, Name is 1-(2,3-Dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)ethanone,introducing its new discovery.
A new chiral Br°nsted acid, generated in situ from a chiral phosphoric acid boron (CPAB) complex and water, was successfully applied to asymmetric indole reduction. This ?designer acid catalyst?, which is more acidic than TsOH as suggested by DFT calculations, allows the unprecedented direct asymmetric reduction of C2-aryl-substituted N-unprotected indoles and features good to excellent enantioselectivities with broad functional group tolerance. DFT calculations and mechanistic experiments indicates that this reaction undergoes C3-protonation and hydride-transfer processes. Besides, bulky C2-alkyl-substituted N-unprotected indoles are also suitable for this system.
