synthesis of unsymmetrical 2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidines from pyrrolidine by two rounds of redox-triggered α-C–H functionalization. Although this approach can be used to introduce substituents at the 2- and 5-positions, it is lengthy because the redox auxiliary must be removed and then reinstalled. Therefore, we sought to develop a method to oxidize 2-functionalized pyrrolidine to cyclic N,O-acetal which
我们先前报道了通过两轮氧化还原触发的α-C–H官能团由吡咯烷迭代合成不对称的2,5-二取代吡咯烷。尽管此方法可用于在2和5位引入取代基,但它很冗长,因为必须先去除氧化还原助剂然后重新安装。因此,我们寻求开发一种将2-官能化的吡咯烷氧化为环状N,O-乙缩醛的方法,其然后可以与亲核试剂反应以引入5-取代基。在这项工作中,我们发现分子碘可以介导α取代的吡咯烷的仲取代优先于叔α-C–H键的氧化,形成环N,O-缩醛,改善了我们先前报道的方法的步骤经济性。用这种策略,从(±)-吡咯烷丁-3-醇合成(±)-普鲁斯汀及其C(3)差向异构体。
