Lewis Acid Catalyzed Geminal Acylation Reaction of Ketones with 1,2-Bis[(trimethylsilyl)oxy]cyclobutene: Direct Formation of 2,2-Disubstituted 1,3-Cyclopentanediones
摘要:
Ketones reacted with 1,2-bis((trimethylsilyl)oxy)cyclobutene (1) under catalysis by boron trifluoride etherate to yield 2,2-disubstituted 1,3-cyclopentanedione products via silylated cyclobutanone intermediates in a two-step, one-pot process. In many instances addition of a small amount of water to the reaction medium after completion of the first step assisted the subsequent rearrangement to the product, such that reversion of the intermediate to the starting ketone became an insignificant process. Yields were best with cyclohexanones (>90%), but steric hindrance and conjugated double bonds reduced yields considerably.

Reductions mediated by baker'syeast were carried out on five spiro[4.5]decane-1,4-dione derivatives 4, 9, 12, 15, and 18. Enantioselectivity was always very high, but this did not correlate with the facial diastereoselectivity, which ranged from very high to zero. In some instances, the facial selectivity of the yeast-mediated reduction was lower than that of NaBH4. The reduction product of 4 was
