Stereoconvergent [1,2]- and [1,4]-Wittig rearrangements of 2-silyl-6-aryl-5,6-dihydropyrans: a tale of steric vs electronic regiocontrol of divergent pathways.

ABSTRACT: The regiodivergent ring contraction of diastereomeric 2-silyl-5,6-dihydro-6-aryl-(2H)-pyrans via [1,2]- and [1,4]-Wittig rearrangements to the corresponding α-silylcyclopentenols or (α-cyclopropyl)acylsilanes favor the [1,4]-pathway by ortho and para directing groups in the aromatic appendage and/or by sterically demanding silyl groups. The [1,2]-pathway is dominant with meta directing or electron-poor aromatic moieties. Exclusive [1,2]-Wittig rearrangements are observed when olefin substituents proximal to the silyl are present. cis and trans diastereomers exhibit different reactivities, but converge to a single [1,2]- or [1,4]-Wittig product with high diastereoselectivity and yield.

Synthesis of 2,6-trans-disubstituted 5,6-dihydropyrans from (Z)-1,5-syn-endiols.

Project description:Certain (Z)-1,5-syn-diols 2 may be converted into 2,6-trans-5,6-dihydropyrans by using phosphonium salt 4 or phosphorane 5 as dehydrating agents. A more general four step procedure converts the (Z)-1,5-syn-endiols into enantiomeric dihydropyrans ent-3 via regioselective silylation of the allylic alcohol unit followed by mesylate formation and base-promoted nucleophilic displacement.

Wittig Rearrangements of Boron-Based Oxazolidinone Enolates.

Project description:[2,3]-Sigmatropic rearrangements (Wittig rearrangements) of α-alkoxy oxazolidinone enolates are described. Whereas alkali metal enolates fail, owing to facile deacylation, boron enolates generated from di-n-butylboron triflate and triethylamine rearranged in good yields and high selectivities with exceptions noted. IR and NMR spectroscopies show the boron is chelated by the α-alkoxy group rather than the more distal oxazolidinone carbonyl in the complex and enolate. The rearrangement product contains a boron alkoxide that remains unchelated by either carbonyl. Optimization was guided by density functional theory computations, suggesting that valine-derived oxazolidinones would be superior to the phenylalanine-derived analogues.

(Z,Z)-1,4-Diiodo-1,4-bis-(trimethyl-silyl)buta-1,3-diene.

Project description:The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(10)H(20)I(2)Si(2), contains two half-mol-ecules. Both complete molecules are generated by crystallographic inversion centers located at the mid-points of the central C-C single bonds; the butadiene groups are planar, with a trans conformation about the central C-C bond. The mol-ecules show short intra-molecular H⋯I contacts of 2.89 and 2.92 Å. The crystal packing shows no short inter-molecular contacts.

Biocatalytic, Stereoconvergent Alkylation of (<i>Z/E</i>)-Trisubstituted Silyl Enol Ethers.

Project description:Alkene functionalization has garnered significant attention due to the versatile reactivity of C=C bonds. A major challenge is the selective conversion of isomeric alkenes into chiral products. Researchers have devised various biocatalytic strategies to transform isomeric alkenes into stereopure compounds; while selective, the enzymes often specifically convert one alkene isomer, thereby diminishing overall yield. To increase the overall yield, scientists have introduced additional driving forces to interconvert alkene isomers. This improves the yield of biocatalytic alkene functionalization at the cost of increased energy consumption and chemical waste. Developing a stereoconvergent enzyme for alkene functionalization offers an ideal solution, although such catalysts are rarely reported. Here we present engineered hemoproteins derived from a bacterial cytochrome P450 that efficiently catalyze the stereoconvergent α-carbonyl alkylation of isomeric silyl enol ethers, producing stereopure products. Through screening and directed evolution, we generated P450BM3 variant SCA-G2, which catalyzes stereoconvergent carbene transfer in E. coli, with high efficiency and stereoselectivity toward various Z/E mixtures of silyl enol ethers. In contrast to established stereospecific transformations that leave one isomer unreacted, SCA-G2 converts both isomers to a stereopure product. This biocatalytic approach simplifies the synthesis of chiral α-branched ketones by eliminating the need for stoichiometric chiral auxiliaries, strongly basic alkali-metal enolates, and harsh conditions, delivering products with high efficiency and excellent chemo- and stereoselectivities.

Synthesis and Photochemistry of Tris(trimethoxysilyl)acyl-silanes and 1,4-Tetrakis(silyl)-1,4-bisacylsilanes.

Project description:In this contribution, we present the synthesis of two groups of novel acylsilanes 1-6. Compounds 1 and 2 represent tris(trimethoxysilyl)acylsilanes, and compounds 3-6 are 1,4-tetrakis(silyl)-1,4-bisacylsilanes. All isolated compounds were characterized by infrared (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Additionally, these compounds were further analyzed by ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) spectroscopy and their longest wavelength absorption bands were assigned by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. On the basis of the well-known Brook rearrangement of acylsilanes, we irradiated 1-6 in benzene solutions at 405 nm (λ) for several hours. Photolysis of compounds 1 and 2 afforded the same silene rearrangement products as found in previous investigations of structurally related acylsilanes. In addition, trapping experiments with MeOH further support our proposed mechanism for silene formation. The photolysis of tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)bisacylsilane 3 gave rise to the formation of a monosilene intermediate 10; upon prolonged irradiation, the subsequently formed bissilene undergoes a fast dimerization to bicyclic product 11. Interestingly, unlike the expected head-to-head dimerization of Brook-type silenes, this bissilene undergoes a selective head-to-tail dimerization. In contrast, tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)bisacylsilane 4 undergoes a selective and completely stereoselective double CH activation to air stable bicyclic system 12. The mechanism of this rearrangement is fully described by DTF calculations. Unfortunately, tetrakis(trimethoxysilyl)bisacylsilanes 5 and 6 underwent unselective photochemical rearrangements.

[1,2]- and [1,4]-Wittig Rearrangements of α-Alkoxysilanes: Effect of Substitutions at both the Migrating Benzylic Carbon and the Terminal sp<sup>2</sup> Carbon of the Allyl Moiety.

Project description:Substituted α-alkoxysilanes can be deprotonated by alkyllithium bases and made to undergo Wittig rearrangements to afford the #x0005B;1,4]- and [1,2]-rearranged products in varying ratios. Substitution at the benzylic migrating carbon and/or at the allylic carbon of the allyl moiety impacts the rearrangement reaction, influencing the reactivity as well as the [1,4]-/[1,2]-selectivity. Diastereomeric α-alkoxysilanes show different reactivities with the syn diastereomer being the more reactive isomer.
