Tellurium in Organic Synthesis. Preparation of Z-Vinylic Cuprates from Z-Vinylic Tellurides and Their Reaction with Enones and Epoxides
摘要:
Z-Vinylic tellurides, obtained with 100% stereoselectivity by the hydrotelluration of acetylenes, are easily transformed into Z-vinylic higher order cyanocuprates by reaction with preformed Me(2)Cu(CN)Li-2, n-Bu(2)Cu(CN)Li-2, or n-Bu(2-Th)Cu(CN)Li-2, with total retention of the double-bond configuration. The resulting vinylic higher order cyanocuprates react with unhindered enones to give the corresponding 1,4-addition products in good yields. Reaction of the vinylic higher order cyanocuprates with monosubstituted epoxides at 0 degrees C gives the homoallylic alcohols resulting from the attack to the less-substituted carbon atom, while the disubstituted epoxides failed to react. Allylic epoxides react at -78 degrees C with the vinylic higher order cyanocuprates to give mixtures of 1,2- and 1,4-opening products, the 1,4-product predominating. In all cases the double-bond configuration of the original vinylic telluride was preserved. The vinylic cuprates derived from simple vinylic tellurides and conjugated 1-telluroenynes react with epoxides at 0 degrees C, while vinylic cuprates derived from conjugated 1-tellurodienes required the addition of 1 equiv of BF3 . Et(2)O to give the homoallylic alcohols on reaction with epoxides. The opening of optically pure epoxides through tellurium/copper transmetalation is stereospecific, giving one single stereoisomer of the corresponding homoallylic alcohol.
n-pentyl 1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl (MT) sulfone 1a in the Julia-Kocienski reactions were compared with those of the PT sulfone 1b and the TBT sulfone 1c. The improved stability of the anion derived from the n-pentyl MT sulfone 1a enhanced the efficiency of the olefination reactions and gave higher yields of the product alkenes 3 compared with the PT sulfone 1b. Especially high E-selectivity and high

Dilithium cyanocuprates R2LCu(CN)Li2 (L=2-Th, Me) react with vinylictellurides of Z configuration, RCHCHTeR1 to give higherordervinyliccyanocuprates, [(RCHCH)LCu(CN)Li2]. By changing the gegenion from lithium to magnesium [R2LCu(CN)LiMgBr or R2LCu(CN)(MgBr)2] the reaction gives cross - coupling products of Z configuration, RCHCHR2 in good yields.
Ir-Catalyzed Distal Branch-Selective Hydroarylation of Unactivated Internal Alkenes with Benzanilides via C–H Activation along with Consecutive Isomerization
We herein report a synergistic strategy of C–Hactivation and consecutive isomerization catalyzed by an Ir catalyst to selectively obtain branched isomers as C–H alkylated products of benzanilide derivatives. A well-tuned ligand and a directing group are crucial to achieve this selectivity. The scope of this reaction is demonstrated by the use of a variety of substituents and complex molecules.

Bis-vinylic tellurides, 1-tellurodienes, 1-telluroenynes and vinyl thienyl tellurides react with higher order cyanocuprates giving the corresponding higher order vinyl cyanocuprates with retention of the olefine geometry.
