Stericeffects on the deprotonative generation of cyclohexynes and 1,2-cyclohexadienes from cyclohexenyl triflates are described. A cyclohexenyl triflate, which is readily available from nonsubstituted cyclohexanone, was selectively converted to cyclohexyne using magnesium bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide) as base. The generated cyclohexyne was trapped by 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran to afford the cycloadduct
The reaction of 5-hexynyl tosylate (3a) with alkynyllithium (RC=CLi; R Ph, TMS) gives enynes 5 and 6. The reaction proceeds through a mechanism involving a novel exo-type cyclization of 6-lithiod-hexynyl tosylate to form cyclopentylidene carbene. Enyne 6 is produced by the addition of RC=CLi to the carbene, whereas rearrangement of the carbene to cyclohexyne followed by carbolithiation with RC=CLi gives enyne 5. The formation of cyclopentylidene carbene and cyclohexyne as intermediates is clearly demonstrated by trapping experiments with cyclohexene land triethylsilane) and with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran, respectively. Alkynyllithiums derived from 3-butynyl and 6-heptynyl p-fluorobenzenesulfonates (19a,b) undergo a similar exo-type cyclization to give cyclopropylidene and cyclohexylidene carbenes, respectively.
