A comparative study of the Au-catalyzed cyclization of hydroxy-substituted allylic alcohols and ethers.

ABSTRACT: The Au(I)-catalyzed cyclization of hydroxyallylic ethers to form tetrahydropyrans is reported. Employing (acetonitrile)[(o-biphenyl)di-tert-butylphosphine]gold(I) hexafluoroantimonate, the cyclization reactions were complete within minutes to hours, depending on the substrate. The reaction progress was monitored by GC, and comparisons between substrates demonstrate that reactions of allylic alcohols are faster than the corresponding ethers. Additionally, it is reported that Reaxa QuadraPure(TM) MPA is an efficient scavenging reagent that halts the reaction progress.

Pd-catalyzed synthesis of allylic silanes from allylic ethers.

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of Branched Chiral Allylic Phenyl Ethers from (E)-Allylic Alcohols.

Project description:The first di-?-amidate dipalladium complexes and a new di-?-carboxylate dipalladium complex of the COP (cobalt oxazoline palladacycle) palladium(II) catalyst family are reported and characterized crystallographically. The di-?-amidate complex 3 or its enantiomer (ent-3) are the first asymmetric catalysts that allow commercially available, or readily accessible, (E)-2-alkene-1-ols to be transformed to enantioenriched branched allylic aryl ethers upon reaction of their trichloroacetimidate derivatives with phenols. The 3-aryloxy-1-alkene products are formed in high enantiomeric purity (typically 90-98% ee) and useful yields (61-88%).

Stereoselective synthesis of cyclic ethers via the palladium-catalyzed intramolecular addition of alcohols to phosphono allylic carbonates.

Project description:Cross metathesis of the acrolein-derived phosphono allylic carbonate and hydroxy alkenes using second generation Grubbs catalyst and copper(I) iodide gave the substituted phosphonates in good yield. Stereospecific palladium(0)-catalyzed cyclization gave tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydropyran vinyl phosphonates. Regioselective Wacker oxidation of the vinyl phosphonate gave the beta-keto phosphonate, which underwent HWE reaction with benzaldehyde to yield the unsaturated ketone. The utility of the cross metathesis/cyclization protocol was further demonstrated by a formal synthesis of centrolobine.

Triflic-Acid-Catalyzed Tandem Allylic Substitution-Cyclization Reaction of Alcohols with Thiophenols-Facile Access to Polysubstituted Thiochromans.

Project description:Hitherto inaccessible multisubstituted thiochroman derivatives were constructed via the one-pot reaction of thiophenols with allylic alcohols catalyzed by 0.2 equiv triflic acid under metal-free conditions. A variety of thiochroman derivatives can be obtained by this straightforward protocol that allows the introduction of up to four substituents at various locations on the thiochroman skeleton. Relative conformations of all isolated products were confirmed by NOESY NMR studies, and a stepwise mechanism, proceeding via an allylic substitution-intramolecular cyclization protocol, is proposed on the basis of NMR experiments.

α-Aryl-substituted allenamides in an imino-Nazarov cyclization cascade catalyzed by Au(I).

Project description:An imino-Nazarov cyclization using α-aryl-substituted allenamides is described. This gold(I)-catalyzed cascade is efficient and regioselective in constructing a diverse array of synthetically useful aromatic-ring fused cyclopentenamides. The success in this transformation represents a solution to the challenge in establishing an imino-Nazarov cyclization process.

Nickel-catalyzed enantioselective allylic alkylation of lactones and lactams with unactivated allylic alcohols.

Project description:The first nickel-catalyzed enantioselective allylic alkylation of lactone and lactam substrates to deliver products bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter is reported. The reaction, which utilizes a commercially available chiral bisphosphine ligand, proceeds in good yield with a high level of enantioselectivity (up to 90% ee) on a range of unactivated allylic alcohols for both lactone and lactam nucleophiles. The utility of this method is further highlighted via a number of synthetically useful product transformations.

Formation of Chiral Allylic Ethers via an Enantioselective Palladium-Catalyzed Alkenylation of Acyclic Enol Ethers.

Project description:This report details a palladium-catalyzed process to access highly functionalized, optically active allylic aryl ethers. A number of electron-deficient alkenyl triflates underwent enantioselective and site-selective coupling with acyclic aryl enol ethers in the presence of a chiral palladium catalyst. This transform provides chiral allylic ether products in high yields and excellent enantiomeric ratios, furnishing a unique disconnection to incorporate heteroatoms at a stereocenter. Finally, the applicability of the products to target synthesis was demonstrated through the formation of a chiral allylic alcohol and the generation of a flavone-inspired product.

Iodine-catalyzed prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohols and aldehydes.

Project description:The iodine-catalyzed Prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohols and aldehydes was investigated under metal-free conditions and without additives. Anhydrous conditions and inert atmosphere are not required. The reaction of 2-(3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1-yl)propan-1-ol and 21 aldehydes (aliphatic and aromatic) in CH₂Cl₂ in the presence of 5 mol % of iodine gave 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[f]isochromenes in 54%-86% yield. Under similar conditions, the Prins cyclization of six alcohols containing an endocyclic double bond (primary, secondary, or tertiary) led to dihydropyrans in 52%-91% yield. The acyclic homoallylic alcohols gave 4-iodo-tetrahydropyran in 29%-41% yield in the presence of 50 mol % of iodine. This type of substrate is the main limitation of the methodology. The relative configuration of the products was assigned by NMR and X-ray analysis. The mechanism and the ratio of the products are discussed, based on DFT calculations.
