doi:10.6023/cjoc202604048

摘要/Abstract

Smiles重排反应是一类通过分子内芳基迁移实现碳-碳键高效构建的重要合成策略, 广泛应用于药物分子、天然产物与功能材料的合成中, 但其不对称转化发展相对滞后, 目前尚无系统综述. 此文以反应机理为主线, 将不对称Smiles重排反应划分为离子型与自由基型两大类型, 并从手性底物诱导、手性试剂介导、手性催化三大立体控制策略出发, 系统总结了各反应体系的设计原理、反应特点与适用范围. 最后, 总结了当前该领域面临的核心挑战, 并对其未来发展方向与应用前景进行了展望, 旨在为相关手性合成方法学研究提供有益参考.

The Smiles rearrangement is an important synthetic strategy for the efficient construction of carbon-carbon bonds via intramolecular aryl migration, which has been widely applied in the synthesis of pharmaceutical molecules, natural products, and functional materials. However, the development of its asymmetric transformation lags relatively behind, and no systematic review has been reported to date. This review classifies asymmetric Smiles rearrangements into two fundamental classes based on their reaction mechanisms: ionic and radical pathways. It systematically summarizes the design principles, reaction characteristics, and synthetic scope of each system under three well-established stereocontrol strategies: chiral substrate, chiral reagent, and chiral catalysis. Finally, the key challenges in this field are identified, and perspectives on future development directions and application prospects are presented, with the goal of providing a valuable reference for the development of new chiral synthetic methodologies.

Key words: Smiles rearrangement, asymmetric synthesis, chiral quaternary carbon stereocenter, aryl migration
