Samarium(II)-Mediated Reactions of γ,δ-Unsaturated Ketones. Cyclization and Fragmentation Processes
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]On treatment with samarium(II) iodide, gamma,delta-unsaturated ketones undergo very different processes depending upon the nature of the reaction conditions. Employing samarium(II) iodide and MeOH, functionalized syn-cyclopentanol products are obtained stereoselectively. Mechanistic studies suggest that this cyclization occurs via a sequential reduction/intramolecular aldol reaction. With samarium(II) iodide and HMPA, products of a 4-exo-trig cyclization and of an interesting fragmentation reaction are observed.

undergo two very different stereoselective cyclization reactionsmediated by samarium(II) iodide depending upon the alcohol cosolvent used in the reaction. Switching between an unprecedented aldol spirocyclization and a novel cyclobutanol-forming process can be achieved simply by changing the alcohol cosolvent from methanol to tert-butyl alcohol.
