E/Z isomerization, solvolysis, addition, and cycloaddition reactions of (E)-tert-butylketene methyl tert-butyldimethylsilyl acetal
摘要:
In the presence of catalytic amounts of CF3COCH3 or CF3COCF3, the silyl ketene acetal E-1 was isomerized into its Z isomer (Z/E ratio 90:10). For this novel E/Z isomerization a mechanism is proposed, in which addition and reelimination of the fluoro ketone, through a 1,4-dipolar intermediate operates. With the protic nucleophiles CH3OH, CF3CH2OH, or PhOH, the ketene acetal E-1 afforded the ortho esters 2 as addition products, while CH3CO2H, CF3CO2H, or H2O led to methyl pivalate as the solvolysis product. This chemistry is readily explained through protonation of the ketene acetal E-1 to generate the corresponding carbenium ion. At low temperature the reaction with TCNE gave the silylketene imine 3 as labile cycloadduct, which underwent on workup desilylation to give the TCNE-incorporated ester 6; the latter eliminated hydrogen cyanide at room temperature to give the ene ester 7. With MTAD the labile silyl ene product 4 was obtained initially, which underwent silyl migration to give N-silylated urazole 8; final desilylation led to the stable urazole 9. Also for the ene reactions of TCNE and MTAD with the silyl ketene acetal E-1, a 1,4-dipolar intermediate is proposed to intervene.
Photooxygenation of silyl ketene acetals: dioxetanes as precursors to .alpha.-silylperoxy esters in the silatropic ene reaction
摘要:
Photooxygenation of silyl ketene acetals afforded dioxetanes, which subsequently underwent secondary reactions to give rearrangement products (alpha-silylperoxy esters, major products) and cleavage products (pivalaldehyde, minor product). The kinetics of these reactions were studied by NMR and chemiluminescence. The activation energy of the chemiluminescent cleavage process was 2-3 kcal/mol higher than that of the rearrangement. In the presence of catalytic amounts of CF3COCF3 or CF3COCH3, the (E)-silyl ketene acetals rearranged into their Z isomers. Photooxygenation of the (E)- and (Z)-silyl ketene acetals showed that the [2 + 2] cycloaddition was rigorously diastereoselective. Trapping experiments with acetaldehyde confirmed the intermediacy of 1,4-zwitterions in the rearrangement of the (E)- and (Z)-dioxetanes into alpha-silylperoxy esters, but such intermediates were not detected during the photooxygenation of the silyl ketene acetals; the latter proceeds presumably via perepoxides.

olefinic aldehydes as well as aliphatic aldehydes (albeit more slowly) with excellent enantioselectivity. The homologous tert-butyldimethylsilyl ketene acetal of tert-butyl propanoate adds with nearly exclusive anti diastereoselectivity to a similar range of aldehydes also with excellent enantioselectivity. The origin of the slower reaction rate with aliphatic aldehydes is revealed to be the formation of chlorosilyl

Various enol-type alkenes, such as 2,3-dimethylbenzodioxin (1), O-tetrabenzyl glycal (3), 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)cycloalkenes (9) were transformed in excellent yields to their labile epoxides by dimethyldioxirane (as acetone solution); the silyl ketene acetal 5 and 2-methyl-3-trimethylsilyloxybenzo[b]furan (7) gave the corresponding epoxide rearrangement products.
