Abstract

Optically active heterodimeric 5,5′-linked bis-isochromans, containing a stereogenic ortho-trisubstituted biaryl axis and up to four chirality centers, were synthesized stereoselectively by using a Suzuki–Miyaura biaryl coupling reaction of optically active isochroman and 1-arylpropan-2-ol derivatives, providing the first access to synthetic biaryl-type isochroman dimers. Enantiomeric pairs and stereoisomers up to seven derivatives were prepared with four different substitution patterns, which enabled us to test how OR, ECD, and VCD measurements and DFT calculations can be used to determine parallel central and axial chirality elements in three isolated blocks of chirality. In contrast to natural penicisteckins A–D and related biaryls, the ECD spectra and OR data of (aS) and (aR) atropodiastereomers did not reflect the opposite axial chirality, but they were characteristic of the central chirality. The atropodiastereomers showed consistently near-mirror-image VCD curves, allowing the determination of axial chirality with the aid of DFT calculation or by comparison of characteristic VCD transitions.
