Thiomaleic anhydride: a convenient building block for the synthesis of alpha-substituted gamma- and delta-lactones through free-radical addition, nucleophilic ring opening, and subsequent thiocarboxylate manipulation.

ABSTRACT: Iodoalkyl tert-butyl carbonates and carbamates undergo clean free-radical addition to thiomaleic anhydride to give substituted thiosuccinic anhydrides in high yield on treatment with tris(trimethylsilyl)silane and a radical initiator. After removal of the tert-butyloxycarbonyl group, cyclization then affords lactones or lactams substituted in the alpha-position by a thiocarboxylic acid residue. This group is converted to amides through reaction with electron-deficient sulfonamides or to aldehydes and/or ketones by the reaction of derived thioesters with either thiophenol, an electron-deficient allyl phenyl sulfide, or phenylboronic acid.

Me<sub>3</sub>Al-mediated domino nucleophilic addition/intramolecular cyclisation of 2-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)benzonitriles with amines; a convenient approach for the synthesis of substituted 1-aminoisoquinolines.

Project description:A simple and efficient protocol for the construction of 1-aminoisoquinolines was achieved by treating 2-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)benzonitriles with amines in the presence of Me3Al. The reaction proceeds via a domino nucleophilic addition with subsequent intramolecular cyclisation. This method provides a wide variety of substituted 1-aminoisoquinolines with good functional group tolerance. Furthermore, the synthetic utility of this protocol was demonstrated in the successful synthesis of the antitumor agent CWJ-a-5 in gram scale.

Stereocontrolled synthesis of vicinally functionalized piperidines by nucleophilic ?-addition of alkyllithiums to ?-aryl substituted piperidine enecarbamates.

Project description:Substituted piperidines are emerging as important medicinally-active structural motifs. Here, we report highly stereoselective carbolithiation reactions of ?-aryl piperidine enecarbamates that offer direct access to vicinally-substituted piperidine compounds. We have also demonstrated that the carbanion intermediates can be trapped with a carbon electrophile.

A Convenient Synthetic Route to Furan Esters and Lactones by Palladium-Catalyzed Carboalkoxylation or Cyclocarbonylation of Hydroxyl-Substituted 3-Iodofurans.

Project description:An effective palladium-catalyzed protocol for the intermolecular carboalkoxylation or intramolecular cyclocarbonylation of hydroxyl-substituted 3-iodofurans under carbon monoxide pressure has been developed. The 3-iodofurans are readily prepared by iodocyclization of 2-(1-alkynyl)-2-alken-1-ones in the presence of various diols.

Nucleophilic Addition of Benzylboronates to Activated Ketones.

Project description:A method has been developed for the addition of benzylboronic acid pinacol ester to activated ketones including trifluoromethyl ketones in good yields. The use of DABCO as an additive was found to enhance the rate and efficiency of this reaction. In reactions of ketones with a second carbonyl group present such as an ester or amide, good chemoselectivity for the ketone was observed. Competition experiments suggest an electrophile relative reactivity order of CF2H ketone > CF3 ketone > aldehyde under these reaction conditions.

Rhodium(I)-catalyzed nucleophilic ring-opening reactions of oxabicyclo adducts derived from the [4 + 2]-cycloaddition of 2-imido-substituted furans.

Project description:A series of 2-imido-substituted furans containing tethered unsaturation were prepared by the addition of the lithium carbamate of furan-2-ylcarbamic acid tert-butyl ester to a solution of the mixed anhydride of an appropriately substituted 3-butenoic acid. The initially formed imido furans undergo a rapid intramolecular [4 + 2]-cycloaddition at room temperature to deliver the Diels-Alder cycloadducts in good to excellent yield. Isolation of the highly labile oxabicyclic adduct is believed to be a consequence of the lower reaction temperatures employed as well as the presence of the extra carbonyl group, which diminishes the basicity of the nitrogen atom, thereby retarding the ring cleavage/rearrangement reaction generally encountered with related systems. By using a Rh(I)-catalyzed ring opening of the oxabicyclic adduct with various nucleophilic reagents, it was possible to prepare highly functionalized hexahydro-1H-indol-2(3H)-one derivatives in good yield. The major stereoisomer obtained possesses a cis-relationship between the nucleophile and hydroxyl group in the ring-opened product. The stereochemistry was unequivocally established by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Coordination of Rh(I) to the alkenyl pi-bond followed by a nitrogen-assisted cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond occurs to furnish a pi-allyl rhodium(III) species. Addition of the nucleophile then occurs from the least hindered terminus of the resulting pi-allyl rhodium(III) complex. Proton exchange followed by rhodium(I) decomplexation ultimately leads to the cis-diastereomer.

Alkoxide-induced ring opening of bicyclic 2-vinylcyclobutanones: A convenient synthesis of 2-vinyl-substituted 3-cycloalkene-1-carboxylic acid esters.

Project description:The fused 2-vinyl or 2-phenyl substituted cyclobutanones 4 undergo stereoselective ring openings by the action of alkoxide ions (t-BuO(-) or MeO(-)) to produce novel vicinally disubstituted cycloalkene derivatives 5 and 6 in moderate to high yields. The ring cleavage usually occurs with complete regioselectivity. The accessibility of ?,?-unsaturated ester or acid derivatives makes this transformation a good supplementary method for the well-established Johnson-Claisen rearrangement.

This reaction provides unprecedented access to a diverse family of N-substituted propargylic alcohols that are obtained in high yield and ee in the presence of 10 mol% of zinc triflate and N-methylephedrine. The use of apolar solvent mixtures is essential to avoid product racemization and to optimize ee's without compromising conversion.

Catalytic Hydroxycyclopropanol Ring-Opening Carbonylative Lactonization to Fused Bicyclic Lactones.

Project description:A novel palladium-catalyzed ring opening carbonylative lactonization of readily available hydroxycyclopropanols was developed to efficiently synthesize tetrahydrofuran (THF) or tetrahydropyran (THP)-fused bicyclic γ-lactones, two privileged scaffolds often found in natural products. The reaction features mild reaction conditions, good functional group tolerability, and scalability. Its application was demonstrated in a short total synthesis of (±)-paeonilide. The fused bicyclic γ-lactone products can be easily diversified to other medicinally important scaffolds, which further broadens the application of this new carbonylation method.
