Trans-Selective Olefination of Carbonyl Compounds by Low-Valent Titanium-Mediated Dehydroxybenzotriazolylation
摘要:
Lithiation with n-butyllithium of a variety of benzotriazole derivatives 1a-f and 5a-d, all containing a proton alpha to the benzotriazolyl moiety, gave anions which underwent addition to aliphatic, aromatic, and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and cyclic and acyclic ketones. The resultant N-(beta-hydroxyalkyl)benzotriazole derivatives 3a-m, 6a-g, 9a-d, and 10a were dehydroxybenzotriazolylated when treated with low-valent titanium to give alkenes 4a-m, dienes 7a-j, and triene 11a, with selectivity for the trans isomers without separation of diastereoisomeric intermediates. This method offers an alternative to the three most frequently used methods for the formation of alkenes from carbonyl compounds-the Wittig, Peterson, and Julia reactions-especially in the formation of tri- and tetrasubstituted alkenes.

by treating the corresponding alcohol with triphenylphosphine, N-bromosuccinimide and benzotriazole. Under these conditions, the alcohols gave exclusively the corresponding 1-alkyl-benzotriazoles. Allyl and propargyl alcohols also reacted regiospecifically in a typical Sn2 manner, and no products derived from prototropic rearrangement were found.
