Ni-Catalyzed Reductive C–O Bond Arylation of Oxalates Derived from α-Hydroxy Esters with Aryl Halides
摘要:
A Ni-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling of alpha-hydroxycarbonyl compounds modified with oxalyl groups and aryl halides has been developed that furnishes alpha-aryl esters under mild conditions and tolerates a variety of functionalized aryl halides bearing electron withdrawing and-donating groups. This work highlights C-O bond fragmentation on secondary alkyl carbon centers that generates alpha-carbonyl radicals.
The eco-friendly and highly diastereoselective synthesis of substituted cis-2,6-piperidines and cis-2,6-tetrahydropyrans is described. The key step of this method is the iron-catalyzed thermodynamic equilibration of 2-alkenyl 6-substituted piperidines and 2-alkenyl 6-substituted tetrahydropyrans allowing the isolation of enriched mixtures of the most stable cis-isomers.
FeCl3·6H2O-catalyzed synthesis of substituted cis-2,6-tetrahydropyrans from ζ-hydroxy allylic derivatives
A highly diastereoselective iron-catalyzed synthesis of substituted cis-2,6-tetrahydropyrans from zeta-hydroxy allylic derivatives is described. The FeCl3 center dot 6H(2)O-induced epimerization of the formed 2-alkenyl 6-substituted tetrahydropyrans is the key reaction to account for the high diastereoselectivities observed.

Iodocyclisation of ethyl 2-hydroxyhex-5-enoate 1 and the homologous hept-6-enoate 4 under thermodynamic or kinetic conditions gave the novel tetrahydrofurans 2/3 and tetrahydropyrans 5/6 respectively. In contrast, ethyl 2-hydroxypent-4-enoate 7 gave iodolactones 9 and 10 in good yield, rather than the expected cyclic ether 8. Oxygen-18 studies revealed that the mechanism of iodolactonisation of 7 is dependent upon the reaction conditions employed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. Ail rights reserved.
