Synthesis of medium-sized lactones by copper(I) catalyzed atom transfer cyclization
摘要:
Several omega-alkenyl dichloroacetates cyclize in moderate to excellent yields to 3,5-dichloro-oxocan-2-ones (8-membered ring lactones) when heated in benzene at 80-180-degrees-C in the presence of a catalytic amount of the cuprous chloride 2,2'-bipyridine complex.

Medium-sized lactones (eight- to eleven-membered rings) are efficiently formed by Cu(bpy)Cl catalyzed cyclization of various alkenyl di- and trichloroacetates at temperatures between 80 and 190°C in 1,2-dichloroethane or benzene as solvents. The mechanism of the alkene addition reaction is best understood as a chlorine atom transfer process through radical type intermediates. Exclusive endo-cyclization
