Syntheses of β- and γ-fluorophenyl cis- and trans-α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones
摘要:
Preparation of a series of cis-gamma-fluorophenyl-beta-phenyl-alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactones is reported via 'allylboration' of fluorobenzaldehydes with (E)-methyl 3-phenyl-2-((4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)methyl)acrylate. The corresponding trans-gamma-fluorophenyl lactones were prepared either (i) via 'allylboration' using the (Z)-reagents or (ii) via an indium triflate-mediated isomerization of the cis-products. The difficulty in isomerizing difluorinated cis-products confirms the probable intermediacy of carbocations. Finally, the synthesis of cis-beta-fluorophenyl-gamma-phenyl-alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactones was achieved via an indium-catalyzed allylation-lactonization of aldehydes with (Z)-2-(bromomethyl)-3-(fluorophenyl)acrylates.

Latent nucleophiles are compounds that are themselves not nucleophilic but can produce a strong nucleophile when activated. Such nucleophiles can expand the scope of Lewis base catalyzed reactions. As a proof of concept, we report that N‐silyl pyrroles, indoles, and carbazoles serve as latent N‐centered nucleophiles in substitution reactions of allylic fluorides catalyzed by Lewis bases. The reactions
The use of star-like polyionic Lewis base heterogeneous nanocatalyst for the Baylis–Hillman reaction of benzyl- and methylacrylates with aryl aldehydes has been investigated. The corresponding Baylis–Hillman adducts are obtained in good to high yields in one-pot procedure at room temperature in 5.5–8 h. The catalyst can be easily recovered with excellent purity by filtration and can be reused directly without any change in its catalytic activity.

reaction of easily available Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) alcohols with AgSCF3 in the presence of n-Bu4NI and KI affords primary allylic SCF3 products in high yields and excellent regioselectivities. This regioselective dehydroxytrifluoromethylthiolation protocol could also be extended to propargylicalcohols for the preparation of the primary propargylic SCF3 products.
Enantioselective Trichloromethylation of MBH‐Fluorides with Chloroform Based on Silicon‐assisted C−F Activation and Carbanion Exchange Induced by a Ruppert–Prakash Reagent
Enantioselective trichloromethylation of Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH)‐type allylic fluorides with chloroform (HCCl3) under organocatalysis was achieved with high to excellent enantioselectivities. Silicon‐assisted C−F bond activation by a Ruppert–Prakash reagent and direct activation of HCCl3 by a carbanion exchange process with trifluoromethyl (CF3) carbanion generated in situ from the Ruppert‐Prakash
the directly dehydrative cross-coupling of allylicalcohols with terminal alkynes was developed. This calcium salt cocatalyst facilitates the oxidative addition of the palladium catalyst (1 mol %) to the C-OH bond. Then, the in situ-generated hydroxide ion deprotonates the terminal alkynes to promote the formation of the allylalkynylpalladium intermediate, liberating water as the only byproduct. This
