Acceleration of hetero-Michael reaction by symmetrical pentacyclic guanidines
摘要:
Symmetrical pentacyclic guanidines 1a-c and 2 which contain the core skeleton of 13,14,15-isocrmbescidine 800, have been synthesized. In the presence of catalytic amounts of these guanidines 1, the reaction rate of the conjugate addition of pyrrolidine (9) to gamma -crotonolactone (10) could be enhanced depending upon the size of the cavities and substituents on tetrahydropyran rings of 1 and 2.

Kinetic Resolution in 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Tartaric Acid-Derived Nitrones to 2,3-Dihydro-1-phenyl-1H-phospholes. An Enantioselective Approach to the 2,2'-Coupled Pyrrolidine-Phospholane Ring System

Enantiomerically pure five-membered ring nitrones derived from L-tartaric acid via C2-symmetric O,O'-protected 3,4-dihydroxy pyrrolidines undergo highly regio- and stereoselective cycloaddition reactions with racemic 2,3-dihydro-1-phenyl-1H-phosphole 1-oxide and 1-sulfide. In all cases formation of only two diastereomeric cycloadducts is observed and their ratio (up to 10:1) is dependent on the size of the protecting groups in the nitrone and on the extent of conversion. The tricyclic cycloadducts feature 2,2'-connection of pyrrolidine and phospholane rings and six contiguous stereogenic centers of which three are created and the one at phosphorus is kinetically resolved during the cycloaddition process. It is established that in the studied kinetic resolutions the stereoselectivity factor 8 = k(S)/k(R) exceeds the value of 10 (up to 14) in the most favorable cases. In a properly tuned reaction both the diastereomeric cycloadducts and the enantiomerically enriched dihydrophosphole derivative can be simultaneously obtained in satisfactory chemical and optical yields.
