Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Alkenyl Cyanohydrins Derived from α,β-Unsaturated Aldehydes: Stereoselective Synthesis of <i>E</i>-Tetrasubstituted Olefins
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A novel dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of tetrasubstituted alkenyl cyanohydrins prepared from the corresponding α,β-unsaturated aldehydes is described. The deprotonation of a geometrical mixture of tetrasubstituted alkenyl cyanohydrins with sodium diisopropylamide (NaDA) affords the allylic anions, which enables the equilibration of the E- and Z-olefins to permit the selective functionalization of the E-adduct. Theoretical studies indicate that the nature of the alkali metal cation is a critical component to lowering the barrier for interconversion between the two geometrical isomers, which provides the mechanistic basis for the DKR reaction. In addition, we demonstrate that the DKR reaction can be combined with a transition metal-catalyzed allylic substitution to generate a stereodefined E-tetrasubstituted olefin and quaternary center in a single cross-coupling reaction.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
