With the support of D2-symmetric chiral amidoporphyrin ligands, the Co (II)-based metalloradical system, which operates under mild conditions with low catalyst loadings, can activate different classes of diazo compounds without the need of slow addition for asymmetric cyclopropanation of diverse types of alkenes as the limiting reagents. The corresponding cyclopropanes can be synthesized in high yields with excellent control of both diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity. The broad substrate scope and the unique catalytic profile of the Co (II)-catalyzed cyclopropanation are attributed to the underlying stepwise radical mechanism that has been established through combined experimental and computational studies. The Co (II) complexes of porphyrins as metalloradical catalysts can activate diazo compounds homolytically while translocating the original radical character from the metal center to the α-carbon atom upon releasing dinitrogen gas, resulting in the generation of α-Co (III)-alkyl radicals I.The initially-generated α-Co (III)-alkyl radical intermediates I, which represent a fundamentally new class of metal-stabilized organic radicals, are kinetically competent to undergo radical addition to alkenes, leading to the generation of γ-Co (III)-alkyl radicals II while forming the first C–C bond. Since Co–C bonds are significantly weaker than C–C bonds, the resulting γ-Co (III)-alkyl radical intermediates II preferentially proceed intramolecular radical substitution (3-exo-tet radical cyclization) over intermolecular radical addition to another alkene molecule, giving rise to selective production of the cyclopropanes by forming the second C–C bond while regenerating the Co (II)-metalloradical catalysts. Different from the well-known concerted mechanism, the Co (II)-based radical cyclopropanation controls enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity separately during two consecutive steps of C–C bond formation.
