Effect of Allylic CH3-nFn Groups (n = 1−3) on π-Facial Diastereoselection
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]Michael addition of various enolates toward gamma -CH3-nFn-alpha,beta -unsaturated ketones (n = 1-3) was proven to smoothly furnish the 1,4-adducts with high si face selectivities which monotonously decreased by reduction in the number of fluorines. Although the Felkin-Anh model correctly anticipates the present stereochemical outcome only with E-acceptors, the hyperconjugative stabilization of transition states by electron donation from the allylic substituents (the Cieplak rule) successfully explains the pi -facial preference of both acceptors at least in a qualitative level.
