The synthesis of a series of dienamides 5a-j using Oppolzer’s method is described. Using Rathke’s method the ketene N,O-silyl acetals 6a-j can be obtained in good yield from the corresponding dienamines. The ketene acetals are obtained free of base and free of salts. They are stable and can be stored at -20°C. The new dienes are useful reagents for tandem reactions.
We report the synthesis of N-benzyl-N-[(E)-buta-1,3-dienyl]propanamide (6) and its corresponding O-silyl-subitituted ketene N,O-acetal 7 and their Diels-Alder reaction. Propanamide G reacted smoothly, whereas the yield obtained from 7 was low, probably due to polymerization of the dienophile induced by electron transfer. The ketene N,O-acetals 27a-g were synthesized starting from the corresponding benzamides 25a-e (Scheme 9). The ketene N,O-acetals 27a-g showed increased stabilities and underwent amino-Claisen rearrangements under thermal conditions. Using catalysts, interesting side reactions leading either to the annulated systems, rac-35-37 or to a beta -lactam rac-34 were observed.
Tandem Nucleophilic Addition/Diels-Alder Reaction ofN-ButadienylN,O-Ketene Silyl Acetals with C60: Stereoselective Formation of Bicyclic Octahydroquinolino-1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrobuckminsterfullerenes and Combined NMR Spectroscopic and Computational Evaluation of the Functionalization Reactions

We have studied the reactivity of the N,O-ketene N-1,3-butadienyl-N-alkyl-O-silyl acetals 1a-e with C-60 proceeding through a tandem process to give the adducts 2a-e, The addition order of these tandem reactions has been evaluated. The initial nucleophilic Michael-like addition of the electron-rich N,O-ketene acetal moiety proceeds unusually fast at 25 degrees C, followed by an intramolecularly accelerated Diels-Alder step that is highly diastereoselective. The structures of compounds 2a-e were determined from the H-1 and C-13 NMR shifts and from II-II coupling patterns, while their stereochemistry was deduced from 2D T-ROESY NMR experiments. The proposed mechanism for the nucleophilic addition involves single electron transfer followed by radical anion-radical cation recombination. Computational investigations of the reaction pathways, transition states, and conformational energies have been carried out to corroborate the experimental data.
The preparation and the cascade reactions of N-butadienyl-N-alkylketeneN,O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl acetals
The preparation of N-butadienyl-N-alkylketene N,O-tert-butyldimethylsilylacetals (11a - d)from readily available starting materials is described. The cascade Diels-Alder reaction followed by acylation of these ketene acetals yields bicyclic and tricyclic products 7.13a,b and 14c,d with high diastereoselectivity.
