Alkenes from ?-lithiooxyphosphonium ylides generated by trapping ?-lithiated terminal epoxides with triphenylphosphine.

ABSTRACT: Terminal epoxides undergo lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide-induced ?-lithiation and subsequent interception with Ph(3)P to provide a new and direct entry to ?-lithiooxyphosphonium ylides. The intermediacy of such an ylide is demonstrated by representative alkene-forming reactions with chloromethyl pivalate, benzaldehyde and CD(3)OD, giving a Z-allylic pivalate, a conjugated E-allylic alcohol and a partially deuterated terminal alkene, respectively, in modest yields.

Single enantiomer epoxides by bromomandelation of prochiral alkenes.

Project description:A combination of mandelic acid and N-bromosuccinimide efficiently converts prochiral alkenes into a readily separable 1:1 mixture of the bromomandelates. The diastereomerically pure bromomandelates are then converted into a variety of enantiomerically pure products. Terminal alkenes are converted into enantiomerically pure epoxides. Cyclohexene is converted into enantiomerically pure cis-2-azidocyclohexanol and cis-2-phenylthiocyclohexanol.

Switching the reaction pathways of electrochemically generated β-haloalkoxysulfonium ions - synthesis of halohydrins and epoxides.

Project description:β-Haloalkoxysulfonium ions generated by the reaction of electrogenerated Br(+) and I(+) ions stabilized by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) reacted with sodium hydroxide and sodium methoxide to give the corresponding halohydrins and epoxides, respectively, whereas the treatment with triethylamine gave α-halocarbonyl compounds.

Regioselective synthesis of N-beta-hydroxyethylaziridines by the ring-opening reaction of epoxides with aziridine generated in situ.

Project description:[reaction: see text] Biologically important N-beta-hydroxyethylaziridine intermediates were conveniently prepared by regioselective ring-opening reactions of diversely substituted epoxides. Ethyleneimine generated in situ under basic conditions from beta-chloroethylamine was used as a nucleophile to open the epoxides in an aqueous environment.

Accessing Cationic α-Silylated and α-Germylated Phosphorus Ylides.

Project description:The synthesis and full characterization of α-silylated (α-SiCPs; 1-7) and α-germylated (α-GeCPs; 11-13) phosphorus ylides bearing one chloride substituent R3 PC(R1 )E(Cl)R2 2 (R=Ph; R1 =Me, Et, Ph; R2 =Me, Et, iPr, Mes; E=Si, Ge) is presented. The molecular structures were determined by X-ray diffraction studies. The title compounds were applied in halide abstraction studies in order to access cationic species. The reaction of Ph3 PC(Me)Si(Cl)Me2 (1) with Na[B(C6 F5 )4 ] furnished the dimeric phosphonium-like dication [Ph3 PC(Me)SiMe2 ]2 [B(C6 F5 )4 ]2 (8). The highly reactive, mesityl- or iPr-substituted cationic species [Ph3 PC(Me)SiMes2 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ] (9) and [Ph3 PC(Et)SiiPr2 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ] (10) could be characterized by NMR spectroscopy. Carrying out the halide abstraction reaction in the sterically demanding ether iPr2 O afforded the protonated α-SiCP [Ph3 PCH(Et)Si(Cl)iPr2 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ] (6 dec) by sodium-mediated basic ether decomposition, whereas successfully synthesized [Ph3 PC(Et)SiiPr2 ][B(C6 F5 )4 ] (10) readily cleaves the F-C bond in fluorobenzene. Thus, the ambiphilic character of α-SiCPs is clearly demonstrated. The less reactive germanium analogue [Ph3 PC(Me)GeMes2 ][B{3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 }4 ] (14) was obtained by treating 11 with Na[B{3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 }4 ] and fully characterized including by X-ray diffraction analysis. Structural parameters indicate a strong CYlide -Ge interaction with high double bond character, and consequently the C-E (E=Si, Ge) bonds in 9, 10 and 14 were analyzed with NBO and AIM methods.

Cross-metathesis reaction of α- and β-vinyl C-glycosides with alkenes.

Project description:Cross-metathesis of α- and β-vinyl C-deoxyribosides and α-vinyl C-galactoside with various terminal alkenes under different conditions was studied. The cross-metathesis of the former proceeded with good yields of the corresponding products in ClCH2CH2Cl the latter required the presence of CuI in CH2Cl2 to achieve good yields of the products. A simple method for the preparation of α- and β-vinyl C-deoxyribosides was also developed. In addition, feasibility of deprotection and further transformations were briefly explored.

Expanding the horizon of intermolecular trapping of in situ generated α-oxo gold carbenes: efficient oxidative union of allylic sulfides and terminal alkynes via C-C bond formation.

Project description:With a new P,S-bidentate phosphine as the ligand to gold(I), the α-oxo gold carbenes generated in situ via gold-catalyzed intermolecular oxidation of terminal alkynes were effectively trapped by various allylic sulfides, resulting in the formation of α-aryl(alkyl)thio-γ,δ-unsaturated ketones upon facile [2,3]sigmatropic rearrangements.

Sulfonamide-Trapping Reactions of Thermally Generated Benzynes.

Project description:Reactions of tethered, tertiary sulfonamides with thermally generated benzynes are reported. Typically, the N-S bonds in the substrates cleave, and saturated heterocycles [tetrahydroquinolines ( n = 2) and indolines ( n = 1)] are formed. The process is accompanied by either sulfonyl transfer or desulfonylation from a zwitterionic intermediate, with the favored pathway being largely dependent upon the size (5- vs 6-membered) of the N-containing ring in the zwitterion.

Synthesis of Isomerically Pure (Z)-Alkenes from Terminal Alkynes and Terminal Alkenes: Silver-Catalyzed Hydroalkylation of Alkynes.

Project description:Alkenes are an important class of compounds common among biologically active molecules and often are used as intermediates in organic synthesis. Many alkenes exist in two stereoisomeric forms (E and Z), which have different structures and different properties. The selective formation of the two isomers is an important synthetic goal that has long inspired the development of new synthetic methods. However, the efficient synthesis of diastereopure, thermodynamically less stable, Z-alkenes is still challenging. Here, we demonstrate an efficient synthesis of diastereopure Z-alkenes (Z:E > 300:1) through a silver-catalyzed hydroalkylation of terminal alkynes, using alkylboranes as coupling partners. We also describe the exploration of the substrate scope, which reveals the broad functional group compatibility of the new method. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that a 1,2-metalate rearrangement of the silver borate intermediate is the key step responsible for the stereochemical outcome of the reaction.

HFIP-Promoted Synthesis of Substituted Tetrahydrofurans by Reaction of Epoxides with Electron-Rich Alkenes.

Project description:In the present work, the employment of fluorinated alcohols, specifically 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP), as solvent and promoter of the catalyst-free synthesis of substituted tetrahydrofuranes through the addition of electron-rich alkenes to epoxydes is described. The unique properties of this fluorinated alcohol, which is very different from their non-fluorinated analogs, allows carrying out this new straightforward protocol under smooth reaction conditions affording the corresponding adducts in moderate yields in the majority of cases. Remarkably, this methodology has allowed the synthesis of new tetrahydrofuran-based spiro compounds as well as tetrahydrofurobenzofuran derivatives. The scope and limitations of the process are also discussed. Mechanistic studies were also performed pointing towards a purely ionic or a SN2-type process depending on the nucleophilicity of the alkene employed.

Cu-catalyzed cyanomethylation of imines and α,β-alkenes with acetonitrile and its derivatives.

Project description:We describe copper-catalyzed cyanomethylation of imines and α,β-alkenes with a methylnitrile source and provide an efficient route to synthesize arylacrylonitriles and β,γ-unsaturated nitriles. This method tolerates aliphatic and aromatic alkenes substituted with a variety of functional groups such as F, Cl, Br, Me, OMe, tert-Bu, NO2, NH2 and CO2H with good to excellent yields (69-98%). These systems consist of inexpensive, simple copper catalyst and acetonitrile with its derivatives (α-bromo/α-iodo-acetonitrile) and are highly applicable in the industrial production of acrylonitriles.
