Stereoselective transformation of 1-alkeny ether (R1CH=CHOMe) into alkene (R1CH=CHR2) based on stereospecific elimination of the vicinal iodo(methoxy)alkane
摘要:
Treatment of alkenyl methyl ether with ICl rapidly gave 1-chloro-2-iodo-1-methoxyalkane quantitatively. Without isolation, this dihalide was treated with Et3Al to afford anti-iodo(methoxy)alkane in good yield with high stereoselectivity. The stereochemistry of the starting alkenyl ether did not affect the stereochemical outcome of the product. The use of alkynylaluminum ((RC=C)(2)AlEt) resulted in alkynylation of the alpha-chloro-beta-iodoether. Anti-iodo(methoxy)alkane was converted into (Z)-alkene upon treatment with n-BuLi in hexane-ether at -78 degrees C. On the other hand, the reaction of the same anti-iodo(methoxy)alkane with allylsilane-TiCl4 provided (E)-alkene. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
