Diastereoconvergent Negishi Cross-Coupling Using Functionalized Cyclohexylzinc Reagents
摘要:
Highly diastereoselective Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of functionalized 2-, 3-, and 4-substituted cyclohexylzinc reagents with aryl, heteroaryl, and alkenyl iodides have been performed under mild conditions. The use of Ruphos (2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2',6'-diisopropoxybiphenyl) as a ligand as well as LiCl and N-ethylpyrrolidone (NEP) as additives leads to especially high diastereoselectivities and displays good functional group tolerance. The stereoselectivity can be explained by assuming that the intermediate palladium moiety occupies an equatorial position of the cyclohexyl ring.

The Pd-catalyzed stereoselective construction of decalins with one-carbon units bearing heteroatoms at the ring junction is described. The Pd-catalyzed cyclization of silyl enol ether resulted in exclusive formation of the cis isomer (89%, >100/1 cis/trans). On the contrary, Pd-catalyzed carboiodination and carboborylation (with oxidative workup) provided products in 56% yield (1/>100 cis/trans) and
