35 Abstract: A novel and efficient aerobic asymmetric cyclization reaction of cinnamaldehydes and
36
37 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds through oxidative NHC-catalysis has been developed, and allows the
38
39
synthesis of a wide range of enantiomeric enriched dihydropyranone derivatives in good yields
40
41
42 with good to excellent enantioselectivities. Various α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with aliphatic and
43
44 aromatic substitution groups and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds were well tolerated. The air was
45
46
47
directly used as the oxidant, which make this asymmetric cyclization reaction in highly efficient,
48
49 cheap and green manner.
50
51
52 Over the past two decades, N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has emerged as a
53
54 powerful and useful methodology in organic synthesis by providing an assortment of new
55
56 scaffolds as well as enantiomerically enriched compounds.1 In this synthetic strategy, aldehydes
57
and their derivatives are activated by NHCs a through the formation of acyl anion equivalent b

and b’ (so called Breslow intermediate2), which can react as enolate or homoenolate with various
4
5 electrophiles to undergo the nucleophilic addition process (Scheme 1). With this unique
6
7 chemistry termed umpolung, dozens of reactivity manifolds have been developed across a range
8
9 of reaction subtypes for the formation of C-C, C-N and C-O bonds and corresponding
10
11
compounds with significantly importance.
12
13 While the activation modes of NHC catalysis have been well established, chemists realized that
14
15 the Breslow intermediate could be readily oxidized by mild inorganic and organic oxidants to
16
17 acylazolium ion species c and c’, which could undergo subsequent esterification reaction through
18 O acylation with different O nucleophiles.3 Moreover, the oxidative generated α,β-unsaturated
19
20 acylazolium intermediate c could serve as unique and efficient Michael acceptors. which has
21
22 been succefully employed in the 1,4-addition by reacting with soft carbon nucleophiles. In this
23
24 strategy the intermediate c is typically generated from the nucleophilic addition of NHC with
25
26
α,β-unsaturated acyl fluoride,4 esters,5 acids6 or anhydrides7, the internal redox reaction
27 generated ynals8, or enals in the presence of the high cost 3,3',5,5'-tetra-tert-
28
29 butyldiphenoquinone9 (DPQ, $125/50mg from Sigmaaldrich Pte. Ltd.) as external oxidant. which
30
31 is greatly limited the large scale synthesis.

49 The incorporation of atmosphere molecular oxygen (O2) into an organic oxidation
50
51 reaction offers one of the most ideal processes in organic synthesis.10 The activation of O2
52 by NHC catalysts was succeeded by several research groups in NHC-catalyzed oxidation
53
54 of aldehydes, the corresponding carboxylic acids11 and esters12 could be obtained in
55
56 moderate to good yields. In these approaches, the Breslow intermediates generated from
57
58 aldehydes and NHC catalyst could be oxidized to acylazolium ions by O2, which can
59

undergo the next O-acylation reactions. We therefore envisioned that this chemistry could
4
5 be more attractive if O2 could be directly used as oxidant in NHC-catalyzed
6
7 enantioselective reactions. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no successful
8
9 example concerning an NHC-catalyzed asymmetric reaction with O2 as oxidant. Given
10
11
the fact that, 3,4-dihydro-α-pyranones are important intermediate for the construction of
12 pyridones, γ-lactones, benzenoid derivatives etc.,13 some successful examples in the
13
14 synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-α-pyranones were reported by several groups.14 To make the
15
16 synthesis of this kind of compounds in a more efficient and green manner, we decided to
17
18 contribute a catalytically asymmetric synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-α-pyranones through a
19 chiral NHC-catalyzed reaction of cinnamaldehyde with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds by
20
21 using air as the oxidant.

14 As a starting point, we examined the reaction of cinnamaldehyde (1a, 2.0 equiv.) with
15 acetylacetone (2a, 1.0 equiv.) in the presence of NHC catalyst A (20 mol%) and DABCO (1.5
16
17 equiv.) in THF under air without any external oxidant. To our delight, the reaction proceeded
18
19 well and the desired dihydropyranone 3a was obtained with 80% yield and 60% ee, the cinnamic
20
21 acid 4a was found to be the side product. Next, we started to optimize the reaction conditions. It
22
23
was reported that Lewis acids can be good cooperative catalyst in NHC catalysis due to the
24 complexation of the O-atom of the acylazolium ion with the metal cation, which should lower
25
26 the LUMO hence activate the Michael acceptor.15 Therefore, a series of Lewis acids were tested
27
28 in this reaction, and LiCl was found to be the best, the ee value of 3a could be improved to 87%.
29
30 (Table 1, entries 2, 9-11; LiBr, Mg(OTf)2, MgI2 et. al. see the Supporting Information) A slight
31 increase of the ee value was achieved when molecular sieves (M.S.) were used, and 4Å M.S.
32
33 exhibited most superiority (3a: 82% yield and 94% ee). (Table 1, entries 3-5) Catalyst A remains
34
35 the best catalyst among several catalysts that were studied under this condition. (Table 1, entries
36
37 5-8) After further screening of bases and solvents in the reaction, (Table 1, entries 12-16) the
38
best results could be achieved in the presence of catalyst A (20 mmol%), LiCl (1.0 equiv.) and
39
40 4Å M.S. (20 mg) in THF under air at r.t..
41
42 With the optimal reaction conditions in hand, we started to explore the substrate scope through
43
44 the variation of enals. A range of enals were examined and found to react well with
45
46
acetylacetone in this study. (Table 2, products 3a-j) The ones that bearing electron-withdrawing
47 and electron-donating groups on the para- and ortho- positions can provide the corresponding
48
49 dihydropyraones (3b-3g) in good yields (64-81%) and with good to excellent enantioselectivities
50
51 (85-94% ee). When the (E)-3-(furan-2-yl)acrylaldehyde was used, the product 3h was afforded
52
53 in 73% yield and with slightly lower enantioselectivity (87% ee). Surprisingly, the β-alkyl
54 substituted aldehydes in this aerobic annulation reaction also worked well with good yields and

relatively lower ee values (3i: 71% yield and 77% ee; 3j: 71% yield and 80% ee), which were
4
5 usually difficult to succeed in such kind of NHC-catalyzed oxidative asymmetric reaction.

38 Further investigation of different 1,3-dicarbonyls were also conducted, the heptane-3,5-
39
40 dione could offer the product 3m in high yield (74%) and ee (90%); unfortunately, the 1-
41 phenylbutane-1,3-dione only gave 3k in 69% ee probably due to the steric reason. We
42
43 found that β-keto esters are also good nucleophiles for this NHC-catalyzed aerobic
44
45 oxidative annulation reaction (3l and 3n-q). All β-keto esters used can offer the desired
46
47 products in good yields (65-81%) and excellent enantioselectivities (89-92%); however, a
48
noticeable steric effect of the ester groups on these substrates was not observed in this
49
50 reaction.
51
52 The suggested catalytic cycle is depicted below (Scheme 2). First, the enaminol II could be
53
54 generated through the reaction of carbene I and enal 1a. Next, in the presence of O2, the
55
56
enaminol II will be oxidized to α,β-unsaturated acyl triazolium species III, which could act as
57 good Michael acceptor; further formation of the product 3a and liberation of the carbene catalyst

I are similar to the literature reported by Studer and co-workers. We suppose that, in this aerobic
4
5 oxidative strategy, a hydroperoxide anion will be gernerated in the oxidation process, which will
6
7 greatly facilitate the formation of the side product cinnamic acid 4. Indeed, we observed the
8
9 cinnamic acid as main side product in this reaction.

To verify our hypothesis, some control experiments were conducted. When the reaction
33 of cinnamaldehyde 1a and acetylacetone 2a in the presence of A was carried out under N2
34
35 without any external oxidant, nearly no reaction happened; when O2 gas was used instead
36
37 of N2, the reaction went smoothly and afforded the desired product 3a in 77% yield,
38 18
39 however, the ee value dropped to 58% (Scheme 3, exp. 1). An O isotope labeling
40 experiment of NHC-catalyzed oxidation of cinnamaldehyde was also taken out by using
41
18
42 O2 as the oxidant, and the product yielded in 85% was found to be cinnamic-18O acid
43
44 (Scheme 3, exp. 2). This implied that O2 can successfully promote the oxidation of
45
46 homoenolate II to the α,β-unsaturated acyl triazolium intermediate III, which facilitated
47
the consequence Michael addition reaction with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. Next,
48
49 hydrogen peroxide was used as oxidant instead of O2 under N2 atmosphere in the
50
51 cyclization reaction; we found that only trace amount of desired 3a was detected, and the
52
53 side product cinnamic acid 4 was isolated in 83% yield (Scheme 3, exp. 3), which
54
55
indicated that the hydroperoxide anion generated facilitated the formation of cinnamic
56 acid.

23
24 In conclusion, we have developed an aerobic asymmetric annulation reaction of
25
26 cinnamaldehydes and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds through oxidative NHC-catalysis, the desired
27
28 dihydropyranones were obtained in good yields and good to excellent enantioselectivities. The
29 air was directly used as the oxidant, which make this asymmetric annulation reaction in highly
30
31 efficient, cheap and green manner. We expect air to offer alternative, concise and low cost
32
33 strategy for oxidative NHC-catalysis.

35 ■ EXPERIMENTAL SECTION
36
37 Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed using precoated silica gel plate (0.2
38
39 mm thickness). Further visualization was possible by staining with basic solution of potassium
40
41 permanganate or acidic solution of ceric molybdate. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra
42
(1H NMR) were recorded by using CDCl3 as solvent. Chemical shifts for 1H NMR spectra are
43
44 reported as δ in units of parts per million (ppm) downfield from SiMe4 (0.0) and relative to the
45
46 signal of chloroform-d (7.26, singlet). Multiplicities were given as: s (singlet), d (doublet), t
47
48 (triplet), dd (doublets of doublet) or m (multiplets). The number of protons (n) for a given
49
50
resonance is indicated by nH. Coupling constants are reported as a J value in Hz. Carbon nuclear
51 magnetic resonance spectra (13C NMR) are reported as δ in units of parts per million (ppm)
52
53 downfield from SiMe4 (0.0) and relative to the signal of chloroform-d (77.0, triplet).
54
55 Enantiomeric excesses were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
56
57 analysis on a chiral stationary phase. Optical rotations were measured in CHCl3 with a 10 cm cell

(c given in g/100 mL). Absolute configuration of the products was determined by comparing the
4
5 optical rotation with the known compounds. High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) was
6
7 recorded on QTOF perimer for ESI+. The NHC-catalysts were prepared according to the
8
9 literatures reported.16 Enals which are not commercially available were prepared following the
10
11
literatures procedures.17 The racemic products used to determine the ee values were synthesized
12 by using cis-mixture catalyst as racemic catalyst to generate racemic products. It was prepared
13
14 by mixing the following two catalysts in 1:1 ration.
15
16 General procedure for the synthesis of 3: To an oven dried 5 mL vial was added aldehyde (1, 0.4
17
18 mmol, 2.0 equiv.), 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (2, 0.2 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) and NHC-catalyst A
19 (0.04 mmol, 0.2 equiv.) in 1 mL solvent, followed by addition of base and additive, the resulting
20
21 reaction mixture was stirred under air at rt. After the reaction was complete, (monitored by TLC)
22
23 water was added to the vial, extracted with dichloromethane, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4,
24
25 filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by flash
