Gold(I)-Catalyzed Synthesis of Optically Active 1,4-Oxazepan-7-ones
摘要:
Optically active seven-membered lactones, dimethyleneoxazepanones, were readily prepared in good yields from chiral beta-(N-propargylic)-amino-alpha-methylene carboxylic add tert-butyl esters in the presence of catalytic amounts of Ph3PAuCl and Cu(OTf)(2) A smooth 7-exo-dig cyclization was observed.
