Application of elementoorganic compounds of 15th and 16th Groups in organic synthesis. 100. Reactions of carbonyl compounds with [(trimethylsilyl)propargyl]diisobutyltelluronium bromide mediated by different strong bases: highly regioselective synthesis of (trimethylsilyl)propargyl alcohols and highly stereoselective synthesis of cis-(trimethylsilyl)alkynyl epoxides
摘要:
[(Trimethylsilyl)propargyl)]diisobutyltelluronium bromide (1), after being treated with alkyl- or aryllithium reagent, undergoes a lithium-tellurium exchange reaction via an unstable transient tetraorganyltellurium intermediate, and the in situ generated lithium species reacts with carbonyl compounds to give (trimethylsilyl)propargyl alcohols 2 in high yields with high regioselectivity. However, when the telluronium salt 1 was treated with nonnucleophilic bases such as LDA or lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, the moderately stabilized silylated telluronium ylide formed. The silylated telluronium ylide reacted with carbonyl compounds to afford (trimethylsilyl) alkynyl epoxides 11 in good to excellent yields with high cis stereoselectivity.
