Palladium-Catalyzed Stereoconvergent Formylation of (E/Z)-β-Bromo-β-fluorostyrenes: Straightforward Access to (Z)-α-Fluorocinnamic Aldehydes and (Z)-β-Fluorocinnamic Alcohols
摘要:
We report here the stereoconvergent formylation of (E/Z)-beta-bromo-beta-fluorostyrene mixtures with carbon monoxide and sodium formate catalyzed by palladium. Optimization of reaction conditions leads to the corresponding pure (Z)-alpha-fluorocinnamaldehydes in good yields. The reaction was extended to styrenes bearing electro-attracting or electro-donating groups. The obtained alpha-fluoroaldehydes were smoothly reduced to the corresponding (Z)-beta-fluorocinnamic alcohol by NaBH4. The reaction could be performed on functionalized substrates as demonstrated by the access to the glucoside of beta-fluoroconiferyl alcohol, (Z)-beta-fluoroconiferin, a strong inhibitor of lignin polymerization.

of α,β-unsaturatedaldehydes to their corresponding (Z)-α-fluoro-α,β-unsaturatedaldehydes has been developed. The first step utilises Selectfluor as a fluorinating agent in CH3NO2/MeOH forming (Z)-α-fluoro-α,β-unsaturatedaldehydes and their corresponding dimethylacetals via methoxyfluorination-elimination. In the second step, water is added to promote the hydrolytic cleavage of the dimethyl acetals
An efficient access to (Z)-β-fluoroallyl alcohols based on the two carbon homologation of aromatic aldehydes by Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction with 2-(diethoxyphosphinyl)-2-fluoro-ethanethioic acid, S-ethyl ester followed by reduction with sodium borohydride
approach to (Z)-β-fluoroallyl alcohols based on the two carbon homologation of aromatic aldehydes to α-fluorocinnamic thioesters by Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction with 2-(diethoxyphosphinyl)-2-fluoro-ethanethioic acid, S-ethyl ester, followed by reduction with sodiumborohydride in mild conditions. The α-fluorothioesters were obtained in a good yield by condensing the aldehydes with the lithium anion of
