Abstract:
A multistep synthesis resulting in a good yield of the title compound 13 (BIMNAP) has been developed based on N,N-acetal- formation and oxidation with MnO2. The product 11 is converted into the corresponding trifluoromethane sulfonate 12 by treatment with (CF3SO2)(2)O followed by a nickel-catalysed coupling-reaction with HPPh2. Resolution of the phosphanamine 13 was carried out via fractional crystallisation of the diastereomeric hexafluorophosphate salts of the Pd-complex 15, formed from reaction of 13 with (+)-di-mu-chlorobis{2-[1- (dimethylamino)ethyl]phenyl-C,N}dipalladium (S)-14. The absolute configurations of the two diastereomers were determined by X-ray crystallography. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
