α-Acyloxynitroso dienophiles in [4+2] hetero Diels–Alder cycloadditions: mechanistic insights
摘要:
alpha-Acyloxynitroso derivatives are a class of heterodienophiles leading to valuable 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxazines or the corresponding aminoalcohols in good yields. The discovery that a beta-oxygenated moiety led to a domino [4+2] cycloaddition/sigma(N-O) bond cleavage in the presence of a catalytic amount of Lewis acid was investigated in detail, through kinetic profiling of the reaction both in the absence and presence of a promoter. These studies showed that the role of the Lewis acid was to accelerate the sigma(N-O) bond cleavage thereby promoting a highly reproducible sequence. In addition, our preliminary results on an asymmetric version of this domino sequence are reported. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The Diels-Alder cycloadditions of the alpha-acetoxynitroso dienophile in water are reported. The rapid and high yielding synthesis of structurally diverse 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxazines complements the straightforward elaboration of aminoalcohols obtained from the alpha-acetoxynitroso derivative in anhydrous medium. A rationale for this solvent-dependent product distribution is proposed.
[reaction: see text] alpha-Acetoxynitroso compound 3 has been prepared as a new stable, isolable, and reactive dienophile in nitroso Diels-Alder reactions. The yield of the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of alpha-acetoxynitroso dienophile with 1,3-dienes could be enhanced in the presence of 20 mol % Lewis acid. An unexpected retro hetero-Michael reaction from 26 was observed, leading to the cleavage of the
