1. Introduction
Triarylmethane moiety widely exists in natural products, medicinal and material molecules due to their unique structural and physical properties.[1-2] Among the triarylmethanes, heteroaryl-substituted triarylmethanes are the privileged architectures frequently founded in pharmaceuticals and bioactive molecules.[2-3] Pyrazole moiety, as a class of important nitrogen-containing heterocycles, is widespread in drugs and bioactive compounds[4] (Figure 1). Therefore, the enantioselective synthesis of triarylmethanes bearing pyrazole moiety is highly desirable.
图 1
Among the various synthetic routes of pyrazoles, using pyrazolin-5-ones as the starting material is undoubtedly a fast and straightforward method.[5] Over the past decades, some Michael acceptors such as α, β-unsaturated aldehydes, [6] ketones, [7] esters, [8] nitriles, [9] nitro-olefins, [10] imines, [11] azonaphthalenes[12] etc[13] have been successfully applied to enantioselective reactions with pyrazolin- 5-ones. Notably, the reaction of α, β-unsaturated imines with pyrazolin-5-ones has not been reported so far.
As highly reactive intermediates, aurone-derived azadienes have attracted much attention in recent years because of their driving force of aromatization. Various reaction systems such as metal catalysis, [14] Lewis base catalysis, [15] N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis, [16] Brønsted acid catalysis, [17] inorganic acid and base-mediated reaction[18] have been successfully developed. What’s more, chiral bifunctional bases have also been applied to the reactions of aurone-derived azadienes recently.[19] Considering the fact that aurone-derived azadienes are new kind of Michael acceptors for pyrazolin-5-ones, herein, we hope to realize the cinchona-derived chiral bifunctional base-catalyzed addition of aurone-derived azadienes with pyzarolin-5- ones to construct chiral triarylmethanes bearing pyrazole moiety.
2. Results and discussion
At the outset, azadiene 1a and pyrazolin-5-one 2a were chosen as model substrates to explore reaction conditions in the presence of bifunctional squaramide catalyst 5a. To our delight, the desired product was obtained in 86% yield and 98% ee. Then various solvents were evaluated. The results were depicted in Table 1, and indicated that the solvent had no obvious effect on the enantioselectivity (92%~98% ee). Among them, dichloromethane was the most favorable solvent in terms of yield and enantioselectivity (Entries 1~6). Then, several bifunctional catalysts were examined. It was found that cinchona-derived catalysts such as squaramide, thiourea and quinine had higher enantioselectivities than the urea catalyst. Among the screened catalysts, squaramide 5a was the best, offering the desired compound in 86% yield and 98% ee (Entries 7~11). To further improve the reactivity, the amount of pyrazolin-5-one 2a was improved to 1.1 equiv., the 91% yield was obtained (Entry 12). Thus, the optimal conditions for this reaction were established: using dichloromethane as the solvent and squaramide 5a as catalyst to perform the reaction at 30 ℃.

Owing to existence of enol-ketone isomerization[7c] of the addition product 3aa, clean NMR spectra could not be obtained (clean HPLC spectra could be obtained). So, protection of 3aa with acetic anhydride was employed. Initially, we attempted the protection in situ, however, the target compound was acquired only in 79% yield and the ee value dropped to 82%, which might ascribe to the reversible Michael addition to result in partial racemization in the presence of bifunctional squaramide catalyst 5. So, the acetylation protection was performed after the isolation of 3aa with chloroform as solvent. Delightedly, the acetylation product 4aa could be obtained in 87% yield and 98% ee without any loss of optical purity (Scheme 1).
Scheme 1
With the optimal reaction conditions in hand, the substrate scope was investigated. Initially, a wide array of azadienes was explored (Scheme 2). It was found that the steric effect was obvious. When the methyl substituent was on the ortho or meta-position of the right phenyl ring of azadiene, the target products could be obtained in moderate yield and excellent enantioselectivities (4ba and 4ca). With para-position methyl substituted azadiene, the reaction performed well, however, the ee value decreased to 75% (4da). The electronic properties of substituents on the phenyl ring were also exploited, which had no obvious influence on the enantioselectivity (4ea, 4fa, 4ha). For 1-naphthyl substituted azadiene (2g), the reaction proceeded smoothly, providing the corresponding product with 87% yield and 92% ee. When halogen substituents were on meta-position of right phenyl ring of azadienes, 99% enantioselectivities were obtained (4ia and 4ja). The azadienes with methyl substituent at the 5- or 6-position of benzofuryl ring were also transformed with moderate to good yields and enantioselectivities (4ka and 4la). When the tosyl group was replaced with 4-nitro-benzene- sulfonyl, the desired product was obtained in moderate (56%) yield and 81% ee probably because of electron- withdrawing property. However, when bulky 2, 4, 6-tri- methylbenzenesulfonyl was used, the desirable product (4na) was acquired with 90% yield and 90% ee.
Scheme 2
Next, we turned our attention to a series of pyrazolin- 5-ones (Scheme 3). When alkyl substituent was introduced onto 3-position of pyrazolin-5-ones 2, the reactions conducted smoothly, providing the desired products in good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities (4aa~4ac). While when 3-aryl substituted substrate 2d was used, the ee value sharply dropped to moderate 49% (4ad), the reason is not clear. The effect of 1-aryl substituents of pyrazolin-5-ones 2 on reactivity and enantioselectivity was investigated. Moderate (78%~82%) ee were obtained (4ae~4ag) regardless of electronic properties of 4-substituents of 1-phenyl ring of 2. Meanwhile, it was found that the substituents at the meta-position of 1-phenyl ring of pyrazolin-5-one 2 exhibited better enantioselectivity than that of para-position, such as 2h bearing 3-methylphenyl, the reaction performed well and the best 99% ee could be obtained.
Scheme 3
To further demonstrate the practicality of this methodology, the gram scale experiment was conducted, giving the desired product in 77% yield and without loss of enantioselectivity and activity (Scheme 4). To determine the absolute configuration of the addition product, firstly, we tried direct growth of single crystal of (-)-4aa, it is not successful. Next, the methylation of unprotected inter- mediate 3aa was tried with iodomethane in the prsence of potassium carbonate in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF).[20] Surprisingly, the N, N-dimethylation product 6 was obtai- ned (the reason might ascribe to bulky steric hindrance and intramolecular hydrogen-bonding interaction of hydroxy group to inhibit the O-methylation), which could be easily recrystallized from the mixture solvents chloroform and n-hexane. On the basis of single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (Figure 2), the absolute configuration of product (-)-6 was assigned to be R (Scheme 5). The absolute configuration of addition product 4aa was thus unambiguously determined to be R.

Based on the above experiments and the X-ray diffraction results, a plausible mechanism was suggested and depicted in Scheme 6. As a dual-activating organocatalyst, the Brønsted base part of squaramide 5a grabs the proton of enol tautomer of pyrazolin-5-one, then the Brønsted acid part of squaramide activates the azadiene via double hydrogen bonding, the simultaneous nucleophilic addition to lead a enantioselective Michael addition, followed by tautomerization to give the adduct 3aa with R configuration.

3. Conclusions
In summary, an enantioselective bifunctional squaramide-catalyzed addition of azadienes with pyrazolin- 5-ones was successfully developed, providing a series of chiral triarylmethanes bearing pyrazole moiety in moderate to excellent yields and up to 99% ee. This methodology exhibited broad substrates scope and functional groups compatibility, and the experiment at gram scale could proceed smoothly without any loss of enantioselectivity and reactivity. The further exploration on development of novel asymmetric cycloaddition reaction of azadienes is currently on going in our laboratory.
4. Experimental section
4.1 Instruments and reagents
All reactions were carried out under an atmosphere of nitrogen using the standard Schlenk techniques, unless otherwise noted. Commercially available reagents were used without further purification. Solvents were treated prior to use according to the standard methods. 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectra were recorded at 400 MHz and 100 MHz with the Brucker spectrometer. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm using tetramethylsilane as internal standard when using CDCl3 as solvent for 1H NMR spectra. The following abbreviations were used to symbolize the multiplicities: s=singlet, d=doublet, t=triplet, m=multiplet, br=broad. Flash column chromatography was performed on silica gel (200~300 mesh). All reactions were monitored by TLC analysis. Optical rotations were measured by the polarimeter. Enantiomeric excess was determined by the HPLC analysis using chiral column described below in detail. Commercially available reagents were used throughout without further purification. Aurone-derived azadienes 1 could be synthesized from enones and sulfonamides according to the known literature procedures.[15, 19, 21-22] Pyrazolin-5-ones 2 were prepared according to the known procedure.[23]
4.2 Typical procedure for the syntheses of triarylmethanes bearing pyrazole moiety
A mixture of azadienes 1 (0.20 mmol), pyrazolin-5-ones 2 (0.22 mmol) and bifunctional squaramide organocatalyst 5a (12.6 mg, 0.02 mmol) in dichloromethane (3.0 mL) was stirred at 30 ℃ for 2 h. The crude product was directly purified by silica gel column chromatography [eluent: V(hexane):V(ethyl acetate)=5:1 to 2:1]. To a solution of the product obtained above in chloroform (3.0 mL), acetic anhydride (22.5 mg, 0.22 mmol) and triethylamine (6.1 mg, 0.06 mmol) were added in sequence and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 h. After the completion of acylation reaction, the volatiles were removed under the reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel by using hexane/ethyl acetate (V:V=5:1) as eluent to give the chiral triarylmethanes 4.
