本文公开了以硫酸铁( III )为再氧化剂的活性末端烯烃的高效钯催化抗马尔科夫尼科夫氧化缩醛化反应。该方法需要温和的反应条件,并显示出对抗马尔科夫尼科夫产物的高区域选择性以及与多种官能团的相容性。硫酸铁( III ) 是该方法中使用的唯一再氧化剂。各种烯烃,如乙烯基芳烃、芳基烯丙基醚、丙烯酸芳基或苄基丙烯酸酯和高烯丙醇都反应良好,提供抗马尔科夫尼科夫缩醛,其中一些代表正交官能化的 1,3-和 1,4-二氧化化合物。
Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of terminal acetalsvia highly selective anti-Markovnikov nucleophilic attack of pinacol on vinylarenes, allyl ethers, and 1,5-dienes
A palladium-catalyzed reaction of vinylarenes, allyl ethers, and 1,5-dienes with pinacol proceeded via a selective anti-Markovnikov nucleophilic attack to afford corresponding terminal acetals as major products. The bulkiness of pinacol was found to be critical in controlling the regioselectivity.
