Abstract
Copper-mediated aromatic and aliphatic C-H hydroxylations using benign oxidants (O-2 and H2O2) have been studied intensively in recent years to meet the growing demand for efficient and green C-H functionalizations. Herein, we report an enantioselective variant of the so-called clip-and-cleave concept for intramolecular ligand hydroxylations by the application of chiral diamines as directing groups. We tested the hydroxylation of cyclohexanone and 1-acetyladamantane under different oxidative conditions (Cu-I/O-2; Cu-I/H2O2; Cu-II/H2O2) in various solvents. As an outstanding example, we obtained (R)-1-acetyl-2-adamantol with a yield of 37% and >99:1 enantiomeric excess from hydroxylation in acetone using Cu-I and O-2. Low-temperature stopped-flow UV-vis measurements in combination with density functional theory (DFT) computations revealed that the hydroxylation proceeds via a bis(mu-oxido) dicopper intermediate. The reaction product represents a rare example of an enantiopure 1,2-difunctionalized adamantane derivative, which paves the way for potential pharmacological studies. Furthermore, we found that 1-acetyladamantane can be hydroxylated in a one-pot reaction under air with isolated yields up to 36% and enantiomeric ratios of 96:4 using Cu-II/H2O2 in MeOH.
