Conjugate Alkynylation of Electrophilic Double Bonds. From Regioselectivity to Enantioselectivity

2018

This review surveys the historical efforts addressed toward the development of the conjugate alkynylation reaction. The regio- and enantioselective conjugate alkynylation of electron-deficient double bonds, most commonly unsaturated carbonyl compounds, has been an elusive reaction for a long time. Intensive research during the last decades has resulted in the identification of a number of effective reagents and catalysts to perform this reaction. Non-stereoselective conjugate alkynylation of unsaturated carbonyl compounds was first achieved by using preformed alkynyl organometallics and later with terminal alkynes under catalytic conditions. These methods paved the way for the development o…

Synthesis of densely functionalized cispentacin derivatives through selective aziridination and aziridine opening reactions: Orthogonally protected d…

2014

A novel substrate-directed synthetic route to a series of highly functionalized, orthogonally protected di- or triaminocyclopentanecarboxylate derivatives with multiple chiral centres from an unsaturated bicyclic β-lactam has been accomplished by applying stereoselective ring C–C double bond aziridination with chloramine-T and phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide, followed by regioselective aziridine opening with different N,O nucleophiles and hydrides. The functionalization strategy was successfully extended for access to enantiomerically pure orthogonally protected triaminocarboxylates.

On the regioselectivity of the Friedländer reaction leading to huprines: stereospecific acid-promoted isomerization of syn-huprines to their anti-reg…

2001

Abstract Racemic 12-amino-6,7,8,11-tetrahydro-7,11-methanocycloocta[ b ]quinoline derivatives ( syn -huprines) substituted at the 9-position with a methyl or ethyl group, and both enantioenriched forms of the 9-ethyl derivative, obtained by chiral MPLC resolution of the racemic mixture, were readily converted to the corresponding anti -isomers (huprines) by stereospecific acid-promoted (AlCl 3 or triflic acid) isomerization of the endocyclic CC double bond from the 9(10)- to the 8(9)-position. These results support the hypothesis that the hitherto unseen syn -huprines are also formed under the usual acidic Friedlander reaction conditions used to prepare the known huprines, but rearrange in…

Cycloaddition Reactions of 2H-Benzo[b]thiete and Thiocarbonyl Compounds

1997

2H-Benzo[b]thiete (1) reacts in the o-quinoid form 1′ with the cyclic trithiocarbonates 4 and 6a, b and with the thioketones 8, 10 and 12 in [8π + 2π] cycloaddition reactions to the spiro compounds 5, 7a, b, 9, 11a, b. Irrespective of the presence of CC double bonds, chemoselective and regioselective addition processes at the CS double bonds take place that lead to 4H-1,3-benzodithianes.

A new model for C–C bond formation processes derived from the Molecular Electron Density Theory in the study of the mechanism of [3+2] cycloaddition …

2016

Abstract The [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of the nitrile ylide (NY) with ethylene and with dicyanoethylene (DCE) have been studied using the Molecular Electron Density Theory through DFT calculations at the MPWB1K/6-31G(d) level. The analysis of the electronic structure of NY indicates that it presents a carbenoid structure with an sp 2 lone pair at the carbon atom. While the 32CA reaction with ethylene presents a low activation energy, 6.1 kcal mol −1 , the transition state structure associated with the 32CA reaction of NY with DCE is located 7.5 kcal mol −1 below the reagents, the reaction being completely regioselective. The topological analysis of the Electron Localisation Funct…

ChemInform Abstract: Stereoselective Synthesis of 7,11-Guaien-8,12-olides from Santonin. Synthesis of Podoandin and (+)-Zedolactone A.

2001

Photochemical rearrangement of hydroxy ester 2, easily obtained from santonin (1), afforded butenolide 4, a good starting material for the synthesis of 7,11-guaien-8,12-olides. Compound 4 has been transformed into compound 10, which has been used for the synthesis of podoandin (5) and (+)-zedolactone A (ent-6). Regioselective elimination of the acetyl group on C10 afforded directly podoandin (5). For the synthesis of ent-6, a hydroxyl group has been regio- and stereoselectively introduced at the 4α-position through the 3α,4α-epoxide 15. The basic hydrolysis of the 10-acetyl group in compound 18 took place with concomitant intramolecular conjugated addition of the alkoxide to the butenolide …

Synthesis of 1,3,5-Trisubstituted Hydantoins by Regiospecific Domino Condensation/Aza-Michael/O→N Acyl Migration of Carbodiimides with Activated α,β-…

2005

[reaction: see text] Carbodiimides and suitably activated alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acids react effectively to afford a vast array of 1,3,5-trisubstituted hydantoins by means of a regiospecific domino condensation/aza-Michael/N--O acyl migration. The reaction works well in very mild conditions (20 degrees C, dichloromethane) with fumaric acid derivatives bearing an electron-withdrawing group in the beta position. Good results have been obtained also with less activated substrates bearing only one electron-withdrawing group in the beta position, using more polar solvents (acetonitrile, DMF), and in the presence of a base (2,4,6-trimethylpyridine). Reactions with asymmetric carbodiimi…

Zur protonenkatalysierten elektrophilen substitution von 2,3-dimethylindol mit arylaldehyden: C6-regioselektivität am indol-gerüst

1986

The proton catalyzed reaction of 2,3-dimethylindole (1) with several arylaldehydes 2 yields the 6,6′bisindolylarylmethanes 5 regioselectively. No mechanistic information about the predominant attack of the aldehydes on the indole nucleus is obtained, because the reaction proceeds too fast to control. The electron-rich aldehydes, 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzaldehyde and indole-3-carbaldehyde, yield exclusively the 6,6′,6″-trisin-dolylmethane 9. The constitutions of all isolated methanes were elucidated by 400 MHz 1H-nmr spectroscopy.

A density functional theory study of the chemoselectivity and regioselectivity of the domino cycloaddition reactions of nitroalkenes with substituted…

2000

The chemoselectivity and regioselectivity of the domino intermolecular [4 + 2]/[3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of nitroalkenes with substituted alkenes, vinyl ethers as electron-rich alkenes and vinyl ketones as electron-poor alkenes, have been studied using density functional theory (DFT) methods with the B3LYP functional and the 6-31G* basis set. These domino processes comprise two consecutive cycloaddition reactions: the first one is an intermolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of the vinyl ether to the nitroalkene to give a nitronate intermediate, which then affords the final nitroso acetal adduct through an intermolecular [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction with the vinyl ketone. The two consecu…
