Weak intramolecular interactions as controlling factors in the diastereoselective formation of 3-phosphinoxido- and 3-phosphono-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophosphinine 1-oxides
摘要:
A series of 3-phosphinoxido-and 3-phosphono-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophosphinine oxides was synthesized by the diastereoselective addition of diphenylphosphine oxide and dialkyl phosphites to the alpha,beta-double-bond of 1,2-dihydrophosphinine oxides. Further refunctionalizations led to a 3-P(O)(OH)(2) derivative and to a disulfide. The conformation of the products was evaluated using the B3LYP/6-31+G*//B3LYP/3-21G* method, validated by calculation for a simple tetrahydrophosphinine oxide with a known stereostructure. The preferred conformers of the 3-P(X)Z(2)-tetrahydrophosphinine derivatives were among the twist-boat forms containing the exocyclic P-function in the axial position due to three kinds of favorable intramolecular interactions. Only the 3-P(O)(OH)(2) derivative was found to adopt a half-chair conformation as a consequence of intramolecular H-bonding. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The reaction of 1,2-dihydrophosphnine oxides (3a-3d) with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) did not follow the Diels-Alder protocol, rather the corresponding diphosphatricyclododecatrienes (4a-4d) were formed in good yields. Interaction of the mesityl-dihydrophosphinine oxide (3f) with TCNE resulted in the formation of an alpha-dicyanomethylene derivative (5).
