Diastereoselective synthesis of chroman bearing spirobenzofuranone scaffolds via oxa-Michael/1,6-conjugated addition of para-quinone methides with benzofuranone-type olefins.

ABSTRACT: A simple and convenient cyclization of ortho-hydroxyphenyl-substituted para-quinone methides with benzofuran-2-one type active olefins via oxa-Michael/1,6-conjugated addition has been developed, which afforded an easy access to enriched functionalized chroman-spirobenzofuran-2-one scaffolds with good to excellent yields (up to 90%) and diastereoselectivities (up to >19 : 1 dr). This reaction provided an efficient method for constructing desired spirocyclic compounds combining both well-known heterocyclic pharmacophores chroman and benzofuran-2-one.

3-Nitroindoles Serving as N-Centered Nucleophiles for Aza-1,6-Michael Addition to para-Quinone Methides.

Project description:An unprecedented N-alkylation of 3-nitroindoles with para-quinone methides was developed for the first time. Using potassium carbonate as the base, a wide range of structurally diverse N-diarylmethylindole derivatives were obtained with moderated to good yields via the protection group migration/aza-1,6-Michael addition sequences. The reaction process was also demonstrated by control experiments. Different from the previous advances where 3-nitrodoles served as electrophiles trapping by various nucleophiles, the reaction herein is featured that 3-nitrodoles is defined with latent N-centered nucleophiles to react with ortho-hydrophenyl p-QMs for construction of various N-diarylmethylindoles.

Isothiourea-Catalyzed Enantioselective α-Alkylation of Esters via 1,6-Conjugate Addition to para-Quinone Methides.

Project description:The isothiourea-catalyzed enantioselective 1,6-conjugate addition of para-nitrophenyl esters to 2,6-disubstituted para-quinone methides is reported. para-Nitrophenoxide, generated in situ from initial N-acylation of the isothiourea by the para-nitrophenyl ester, is proposed to facilitate catalyst turnover in this transformation. A range of para-nitrophenyl ester products can be isolated, or derivatized in situ by addition of benzylamine to give amides at up to 99% yield. Although low diastereocontrol is observed, the diastereoisomeric ester products are separable and formed with high enantiocontrol (up to 94:6 er).

Organophotoredox 1,6-Addition of 3,4-Dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones to para-Quinone Methides Using Visible Light.

Project description:An organophotoredox 1,6-radical addition of 3,4-dihidroquinoxalin-2-ones to para-quinone methides catalyzed by Fukuzumi's photocatalyst is described under the irradiation of a HP Single LED (455 nm). The corresponding 1,1-diaryl compounds bearing a dihydroquinoxalin-2-one moiety (20 examples) are obtained with good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Several experiments have been carried out in order to propose a reaction mechanism.

Catalyst-Free 1,6-Conjugate Addition/Aromatization/Sulfonylation of para-Quinone Methides: Facile Access to Diarylmethyl Sulfones.

Project description:An efficient, catalyst-free strategy to construct diarylmethyl sulfones via 1,6-conjugate addition/aromatization/sulfonylation reaction of para-quinone methides with sulfonyl hydrazides under mild and environmentally benign conditions has been developed. The established protocol provided a highly chemo- and regioselectivity synthesis of a diverse array of novel diarylmethyl sulfones with excellent yields, and the reaction could be scaled up.

Enantioselective Spirocyclopropanation of para-Quinone Methides Using Ammonium Ylides.

Project description:The use of Cinchona alkaloid-based chiral ammonium ylides allows for the first highly enantioselective and broadly applicable spirocyclopropanation reactions of para-quinone methides. This strategy provides a straightforward protocol toward the chiral spiro[2.5]octa-4,7-dien-6-one skeleton, which is a frequently found structural motif in important biologically active molecules.

Michael Additions of Highly Basic Enolates to ortho-Quinone Methides.

Project description:A protocol by which ketone or ester enolates and ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs) are generated in situ in a single reaction flask from silylated precursors under the action of anhydrous fluoride is reported. The reaction partners are joined to give a variety of β-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-carbonyl compounds in 32-94% yield in a single laboratory operation. The intermediacy of o-QMs is supported by control experiments utilizing enolate precursors and conventional alkyl halides as competitive alkylating agents and the isolation of 1,5-dicarbonyl products resulting from conjugate additions that do not restore the aromatic system.

TBAB-Catalyzed 1,6-Conjugate Sulfonylation of para-Quinone Methides: A Highly Efficient Approach to Unsymmetrical gem-Diarylmethyl Sulfones in Water.

Project description:A highly efficient sulfonylation of para-quinone methides with sulfonyl hydrazines in water has been developed on the basis of the mode involving a tetrabutyl ammonium bromide (TBAB)-promoted sulfa-1,6-conjugated addition pathway. This reaction provides a green and sustainable method to synthesize various unsymmetrical diarylmethyl sulfones, showing good functional group tolerance, scalability, and regioselectivity. Further transformation of the resulting diarylmethyl sulfones provides an efficient route to some functionalized molecules.

Stereoselective Synthesis of Tri- and Tetrasubstituted Olefins via 1,6-Additions of Diazo Compounds and Their Precursors to p-Quinone Methides.

Project description:Reactions of para-quinone methides (p-QMs) with α-diazo-β-ketosulfones and their corresponding esters as well as simple β-dicarbonyl compounds and β-ketosulfones have been carried out under basic conditions. While the reaction of diazosulfone with p-QMs afforded trisubstituted olefins via deacylative 1,6-addition and elimination, α-diazo-β-ketoesters and various active methylene compounds such as 1,3-dicarbonyls and β-ketosulfones afforded tetrasubstituted olefins via 1,6-addition and aerial oxidation. These simple, environmentally benign, and mechanistically diverse protocols provided the products in moderate to excellent yields and selectivities.

Tropylium Salt-Promoted Vinylogous Aza-Michael Addition of Carbamates to para-Quinone Methides: Elaboration to Diastereomerically Pure α,α'-Diarylmethyl Carbamates.

Project description:Carbocation catalysis is emerging as an important subarea of Lewis acid catalysis. Some stable and isolable carbocations have been successfully utilized as Lewis acid catalysts and promoters in many synthetic transformations. In this manuscript, we report a tropylium cation-promoted vinylogous aza-Michael addition of carbamates to para-quinone methides (QMs) to access a wide range of unsymmetrical α,α'-diarylmethyl carbamates. This mild protocol was effective for the vinylogous conjugate addition of (-)-menthyl carbamate to p-QMs, and the respective diastereomerically pure α,α'-diarylmethyl carbamate derivatives could be obtained in excellent yields and diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 de).

Project description:The first highly asymmetric catalytic synthesis of densely functionalized dihydrobenzofurans is reported, which starts from ortho-hydroxy-containing para-quinone methides. The reaction relies on an unprecedented formal [4+1]-annulation of these quinone methides with allenoates in the presence of a commercially available chiral phosphine catalyst. The chiral dihydrobenzofurans were obtained as single diastereomers in yields up to 90 % and with enantiomeric ratios up to 95:5.
