Radical cyclisation of bromomethyldimethylsilyl propynyl ethers; serial radical cyclisations leading to a hydrindene framework from an acyclic substrate, stereoselectively
Radical cyclization of (bromomethyl)dimethylsilyl propargyl ethers. Regio-, chemo- and stereoselectivity.
摘要:
Radical cyclization of (bromomethyl)dimethylsilyl propargyl ether derivatives 1 is a powerful reaction with a high degree of regio-, chemo-, and stereoselectivity. Trisubstituted olefins 3, cyclopentene derivatives 5, and diquinane system 7j are obtained in good yields by a judicious choice of unsaturated substituents. Triquinane frameworks could be obtained stereoselectively from a suitable acyclic substrate of type 1 in a one-pot reaction. First attempts have not yet allowed us to aim at this goal due to interesting (1,5) hydrogen transfers. Moreover, we have intercepted, for the first time, the alpha-cyclopropyl radical which is involved in the Stork-Beckwith mechanism of the 5-versus 6-membered ring formation in the vinyl radical cyclization.
5-En-1-yn-3-ol substrates bearing a free hydroxyl group or an acyl group are highly versatile partners for PtCl2-catalyzed cycloisomerizations. Electrophilic activation of the alkyne moiety triggers at wish a hydride or an O-acyl migration yielding at the end to regioisomeric keto derivatives. The efficient preparation of Sabina ketone, an important monoterpene precursor, has been worked out.
1,5-Enynes are highly reactive under PtCl2 catalysis and give a range of [3.1.0] bicyclic skeletons. The scope and limitations of this process are presented. Regioisomeric keto derivatives are obtained depending upon the nature of the oxygenated substituent at the propargylic position of the starting substrate.
Polycyclic derivatives incorporating a cyclopropyl group have been efficiently synthesized from propargyl acetates using platinum(II), gold(I) and gold(III) catalysis. These reactions which are also viable for the preparation of medium-sized rings, proceed with a complete diastereocontrol and can also be run in neat conditions.
