Anion Reactions of 1,3-Dithiane 1,3-Dioxide with Carbonyl Compounds: High Diastereoselectivity with Aromatic Aldehydes under Conditions of Equilibrium Control
摘要:
We have investigated the anion chemistry of trans-1,3-dithiane 1,3-dioxide (4) with aldehydes and ketones, and we have found that this reagent undergoes highly selective addition reactions with aromatic aldehydes but only when reactions are under equilibrium control (achieved using Na anion of 4). Other metals invetsigated (Li, Mg, Al, Ce, Ti) gave either poorer selectivity or caused decomposition of 4. Zn-4 did give improved selectivity at low temperature but only with aromatic aldehydes. Reactions with ketones were limited to those without a-branching. A model that accounts for the high diastereoselectivity observed with aromatic aldehydes is presented.

The sodium anion of trans-1,3-dithiane-1,3-dioxide reacts with unhindered aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes to give adducts with 95:5 to 97:3 diastereoselectivity.
