Benzyl phenyl P-nitroso phosphine oxide (5) reacts as an N-O heterodienophile with 1,3-cyclopentadiene to give the diastereomeric cycloadducts 6a,b in a ratio of 1.5:1 (6a:6b). The same reaction in the presence of tin tetrachloride produces 6a,b in a ratio of 2.9:1 (6a:6b). Cycloaddition of the structurally modified P-nitroso phosphine oxide (18) with 1,3-cyclopentadiene forms the diastereomeric cycloadducts 16a,b in a ratio of 3.1:1 (16a:16b). These results suggest the reactions of these P-nitroso phosphine oxides and 1,3-cyclopentadiene occur through a transition state where the heterodienophile adopts an s-cis conformation and approaches the diene in an exo fashion syn to the phenyl group. This model resembles those proposed for the cycloadditions of the structurally similar asymmetric vinyl phosphine oxides. Reaction of 18 with 1,3-cyclopentadiene in the presence of a Lewis acid produces cycloadducts 16ab in a ratio of 7:1 (16a:16b), which approaches synthetic utility. Similar experiments show that 1,3-cyclohexadiene likely reacts with P-nitroso phosphine oxides through a different transition state, limiting current predictions regarding the diastereoselectivity of these reactions. The intramolecular cycloaddition of an asymmetric P-nitroso phosphine oxide (19) for the first time produces a unique phosphorus-containing heterocyclic compound (20).
