Asymmetric Synthesis of Pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline Derivatives by 1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions of Stabilized IsoquinoliniumN-Ylides with Sulfinyl Dipolarophiles
摘要:
Enantiomerically pure pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives are obtained by 1,3-dipolar reactions of isoquinolinium azomethine ylides with enantiopure 3-p-tolylsulfinylacrylonitriles, tert-butyl (2E)-4,4-diethoxy-2-p-tolylsulfinylbut-2-enoate, and 5-ethoxy-3-p-tolylsulfinylfuran-2(5H)-ones. Reactions evolve through the anti conformation of the ylide with complete regioselectivity. The facial selectivity is completely controlled by the configuration of the sulfinyl sulfur for acyclic dipolarophiles, whereas it is high (dr 83/17 or 89/11) but controlled by the C-5 configuration for sulfinylfuranones. Complete endo selectivity is observed with cyclic dipolarophiles and substituted acrylonitriles, but it is low with butenoate. The sulfinyl group also exerts a positive influence on the dipolarophilic reactivity toward these ylides.
