Abstract

The mechanism of an asymmetric ring-opening (ARO) addition of oxabicyclic alkenes catalyzed by a platinum(ii) catalyst was investigated by M06-2X/6-311G(d,p) using density functional theory (DFT). All the structures were optimized in the solvent model density (SMD) solvation model (solvation = the mixture of H2O/CH2Cl2 1 : 10, v/v) for consistence with experimental conditions. The overall mechanism is considered as a four-step reaction including transmetalation, carboplatinum, β-oxygen elimination, and hydrolysis. The transmetalation and carboplatinum steps are multi-step processes, and both the regioselectivity and the enantioselectivity lie in the carboplatinum process. Based on the natural population analysis (NPA) and the orbital composition analysis of oxabicyclic alkenes, the preferable coordination site with a platinum(ii) center is considered as the bridging oxygen atom by exo-coordination because of the less steric hindrance and the stronger electronic effect. This coordination is thought of as origin of the regioselectivity and the enantioselectivity, which is different from that proposed previously. The Gibbs free energy profiles show that the rate-determining step involves the migration of an aryl group from the pla...Continue Reading
