Electroreductive intramolecular coupling of nonconjugated aromatic ketones
摘要:
The electroreduction of nonconjugated aromatic ketones gave intramolecularly coupled products. The best result was obtained using an Sn cathode in i-PrOH containing tetraalkylammonium salt as a supporting electrolyte. This reductive cyclization proceeded with remarkable stereoselectivity, and the cis isomer was obtained exclusively. A variety of new bi- and polycyclic compounds were synthesized. The reaction mechanism was studied, and it was suggested that the anion radical generated by one-electron transfer to a carbonyl group attacks an aromatic ring intramolecularly. The choice of counter cation of the anion radical was critical for the reductive cyclization. Other reductive methods employing metal reducing agents were also studied. Reduction with Na in HMPA-THF gave the same cyclized product, though the yield was lower than that with the electroreduction.
New conditions for dearomatizingsamarium‐ketyl (hetero)arene cyclizations are reported. In many examples of these samariumdiiodide‐mediated reactions, lithium bromide and water can be used as additives instead of the carcinogenic and mutagenic hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA). The best results were obtained for the cyclizations of N‐acylatedindolederivatives delivering the expected indolines in good

The samarium diiodide-induced 6-trig cyclizations of substituted γ-arylketones 1, 4, 5, 9, 11, and 14 are strongly influenced by substituents of the aryl group. Whereas para-methoxy derivative 5 as well as ortho- and para-cyano derivatives 9 and 14 provided the expected functionalized hexahydronaphthalene derivatives 6 (together with 7), 10, and 15 in moderate to good yields, ortho-methoxy compound 1 was a poor substrate and meta-methoxy derivative 4 did not undergo cyclization at all. The behavior of meta-cyano compound 11 was exceptional since the intermediate cyclohexadienyl "carbanion" was sufficiently stable to be trapped by electrophiles furnishing adducts such as 17 and 18 in moderate yields.

derivatives as single diastereoisomers in most cases. The position of the substituents was also of crucial influence on the outcome; in several cases ipso-substitution leading to the formation of spiro compounds was observed. Electron-donating substituents at the aromatic moiety are less favourable for the ketyl–aryl couplings. They apparently impede the second electron transfer that is involved in this multi-step
