Kinetic and mechanistic studies of the tandem enediyne-radical cyclization
摘要:
Enediynes 11 possessing a tethered olefin radical acceptor can participate in a tandem enediyne-radical cyclization to yield dihydrobenzindene derivatives 16. In the present study, the mechanism of this reaction was investigated utilizing kinetic studies to determine whether the mechanism was a radical chain, stepwise, or concerted process. Substrate concentration, 1,4-cyclohexadiene concentration, olefin geometry, and olefin electronics were varied. These experiments demonstrate that the reaction occurs under first-order kinetics over a wide variation in either substrate or 1,4-CHD concentration. The reaction rate is also independent of olefin geometry and olefin electronics. The rate constants for the reactions were similar and ranged from 3.0 X 10(4) s-1 to 6.0 X 10(-4) s-1. The data suggests that the tandem enediyne-radical cyclization proceeds through a distinct 1,4-diyl reactive intermediate such as 5 formed in the rate-determining enediyne cyclization step, followed by a radical cyclization to give 16. The tandem enediyne-radical cyclization mechanism is supported by trapping the intermediate biradical 18 in a tandem enediyne-6-exo-radical cyclization of 17 to give products 19a,b.

Heading of enediynes 1a, 1b and 2 at 210° C in a sealed tube in the presence of a hydrogen atom source yields naphthalene derivatives 3a, 3b and 4 in yields of 53-72%.

The readily synthesized enediynes 12a-j possessing a tethered olefin radical acceptor can participate in a tandem enediyne-radical cyclization to yield dibydrobenzindene derivatives 14a-j. In the present study, the scope of this reaction was expanded to include a wide variety of olefin acceptors. Substitution at both ends of olefin leads to the formation of two diastereomers 14b and 14c in a 3.5:1 ratio when R3 is Me and R2 is CO2Me. The structures of the dihydrobenzindene products 14b and 14c were confirmed by generating a radical from 25 by a tributyltin hydride reaction which undergoes radical cyclization; this radical is similar to the enediyne-generated radical, which also cyclizes. It was shown that, in 14i and 14j, a substituent at R1 slowed the reaction but still resulted in a good to excellent yield of product. A tandem enediyne-6-exo-radical cyclization of 16 was also carried out but did not work as well as its 5-exo counterpart 12a. Finally, an enediyne 33 containing two olefinic tethers was cyclized in a process to form tetracycle 34 where three rings were formed in one synthetic operation.
