Synthesis of Functionalized Pyrrolizidines/Pyrrolidines Incorporating a Spirooxindole Motif through [3+2] Cycloaddition
摘要:
Dimethyl 2-(aryloxy)fumarates and dimethyl 2-(alkyl- or arylthio)fumarates are shown to be efficient dipolarophiles in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with azomethine ylides, which are generated by the reaction of isatin with the secondary amino acids proline or sarcosine. In these reactions, dimethyl 2-(alkyl- or arylthio)fumarates afforded spirooxindolopyrrolizidines or -pyrrolidines in high yields with excellent regioselectivities, while dimethyl 2-(aryloxy)fumarates produced mixtures of regioisomers. DFT calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level were consistent with the observed results. Tri- and tetracyclic compounds were obtained through regio- and stereoselective intramolecular cycloaddition of O-vinylic salicylaldehyde with secondary amino acids.
The stereoselective formation of C–O, C–S and C–N bonds by the reaction of phenols, thiols and amines with activated alkynes is described. The reactions are successfully conducted in water with excellent yields at room temperature. The lack of organic solvent use in the work-up procedure, the short reaction time and the environmentally benign mild reaction conditions are advantages of this method.
