Tin tetrachloride-induced π-cyclizations of glycine cation equivalents to substituted pipecolic acid derivatives
摘要:
Cationic pi-cyclization reactions of N-(3-alkenyl)-N-(methoxycarbonyl)acetoxyglycine esters induced by tin tetrachloride in dichloromethane are described. Reactions started and quenched with water at -78-degrees-C mainly yield cis-4-hydroxypipecolic esters, whereas reactions quenched after warm-up to room temperature provide trans-4-chloropipecolic esters as major products. A mechanistic scheme is advanced which adequately explains these results. The essentials are a rapid cationic aza-Cope equilibrium of the incipient iminium cation, and participation of the ester moiety through formation of a relatively stable bicyclic dioxycarbenium cation as pivotal intermediate.

Copper(I)-catalyzed chlorine transfer radical cyclizations of several alpha-chloroglycine derivatives with a 3-alkenyl substituent at nitrogen are reported. These reactions proceed via 2-aza-5-alken-1-yl radicals as intermediates which bear electron-withdrawing carbonyl substituents at the radical center and at nitrogen. These radicals can be considered as relatively stable captodative radicals, which are easily generated in the presence of Cu(bpy)Cl, but are reactive enough for olefin cyclization. The main products usually arise from 5-exo cyclization and are structurally interesting analogues of proline. An X-ray crystal structure of one of the cyclization products is presented.
