Aryl radical additions to aldehydes and oxime ethers: the tandem enediyne-radical cyclization
摘要:
The previously unreported cyclization of aryl radicals onto aldehyde and oxime ether acceptors is described. The aryl radicals were generated from a cyclization of enediyne substrates. The aldehydes 6 and 9 and the oxime ethers 7 and 10 were heated to 190-degrees-C in chlorobenzene in the presence of 1,4-cyclohexadiene as a hydrogen atom source to yield the tandem enediyne-radical cyclization products 11a, 11b, 14, 21, and 22, and the simple enediyne cyclization products 12, 13, 15, 16, and 23. For the enediyne aldehyde substrates tandem enediyne-radical cyclization does not appear to be a synthetically useful process and a mixture of products was obtained. The aryl radicals generated in these enediyne cyclizations subsequently undergo either a radical cyclization or other reactions such as hydrogen abstraction from 1,4-cyclohexadiene, decarbonylation, or intramolecular 1,5- and 1,6-hydrogen abstractions. In contrast, there actions with oxime ether precursors provide the tandem enediyne-radical cyclization products in good yield and provide a useful alternative to the tandem enediyne-6-exo-radical cyclization onto olefins.

Tandem enediyne-radical cyclizations were carried out on substrates that contain nitrile and ketone radical accepters. The products of these cyclizations and the previously reported tandem enediyne-radical cyclizations containing aldehyde and oxime ether radical accepters were compared with tributyltin hydride-mediated aryl radical addition reactions with 1-bromonaphthalene derivatives containing aldehyde, oxime ether, nitrile, and ketone radical accepters, since these substrates go through similar initial radical intermediates. Although many of the same products were observed using either method of aryl radical generation, there were distinct differences in the product composition and identity depending on which method was used. These differences can probably be primarily attributed to the temperature difference of the two modes of radical generation.
