Maeda Y, Hamada S, Aota Y, Otsubo K, Kano T, Maruoka K
J Org Chem . 2022 Jan; 87(5):3652-3660. PMID: 35075904
Chiral sulfoximines have recently been considered as promising bioisosteres in medicinal chemistry. However, methods for preparing chiral sulfoximines in a stereoselective manner are underdeveloped. Herein, we demonstrate an asymmetric synthesis...

Chem Asian J . 2020 Oct; 15(22):3816-3819. PMID: 33025747
α-Functionalization of ketones in an umpolung fashion can be achieved by nucleophilic addition to the oxy-allyl cation intermediate. However, applicable carbon nucleophiles are limited to ones with high nucleophilicity. Additionally,...

J Am Chem Soc . 2019 Nov; 141(49):19263-19268. PMID: 31739663
Optically active sulfoximines are a promising substance in medicinal chemistry. However, a methodology for preparing chiral sulfoximines in a stereoselective manner has been underdeveloped. Here, we report an asymmetric synthesis...

Chemistry . 2019 Oct; 25(69):15755-15758. PMID: 31573124
Cyclic sulfoximines were readily synthesized by the cyclization of N-propargylsulfinamides without using expensive and toxic metal catalysts. This cyclization proceeded without loss of optical purity of chiral sulfinamides through the...

Aota Y, Kano T, Maruoka K
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2019 Oct; 58(49):17661-17665. PMID: 31568618
Innovation in drug discovery critically depends on the development of new bioisosteric groups. Chiral sulfoximines, which contain a tetrasubstituted sulfur atom that bears one nitrogen, one oxygen, and two different...

Chen Z, Aota Y, Nguyen H, Dong V
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2019 Feb; 58(14):4705-4709. PMID: 30740841
We report a dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of chiral 4-pentenals by olefin hydroacylation. A primary amine racemizes the aldehyde substrate via enamine formation and hydrolysis. Then, a cationic rhodium catalyst...

Molecules . 2017 Dec; 22(12). PMID: 29231858
2--α-d-Glucopyranosyl-l-ascorbic acid (AA-2G) is one of the stable ascorbic acid (AA) derivatives known as provitamin C agents. We have previously synthesized two types of monoacylated derivatives of AA-2G, 6--acyl-2--α-d-glucopyranosyl-l-ascorbic acids...

Kano T, Aota Y, Maruoka K
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2017 Nov; 56(51):16293-16296. PMID: 29110376
A highly stereoselective synthesis of hitherto less accessible chiral α-tertiary amines with multiple structurally similar linear carbon chains was achieved through chiral auxiliary mediated addition of organolithium reagents to the...

Chem Commun (Camb) . 2015 Sep; 51(92):16472-4. PMID: 26412495
In the presence of a Brønsted acid catalyst, both aldehydes and N-Boc-aminals were converted to enecarbamates and N-Boc-iminium salts as activated nucleophiles and electrophiles, respectively, giving unprecedented Mannich adducts. The...
