On-Demand Generation of an Efficient Catalyst for Pyridine Formation from Unactivated Nitriles and α,ω-Diynes Using CoCl2-6H2O, dppe, and Zn
摘要:
A highly practical, general method for catalytic formation of substituted pyridines from a variety of unactivated nitriles and alpha,omega-diynes is given. The reactions which were catalyzed by 5 mol % of dppe/CoCl2-6H(2)O in the presence of Zn powder (10 mol %) could proceed at rt to similar to 50 degrees C with high functional compatibility and regioselectivity.
Diols, α-Ketols, and Diones as 22π Components in [2+2+2] Cycloadditions of 1,6-Diynes via Ruthenium(0)-Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenation
摘要:
The first use of vicinal diols, ketols, or diones as 2(2 pi) components in metal-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition is described. Using ruthenium(0) catalysts, 1,6-diynes form ruthenacyclopentadienes that engage transient diones in successive carbonyl addition. Transfer hydrogenolysis of the resulting ruthenium(II) diolate mediated by the diol or ketol reactant releases the cycloadduct with regeneration of ruthenium(0) and the requisite dione.

2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane-cobalt(II) chloride-zinc catalyst in 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one at room temperature to 50 ˚C, α,ω-diynes reacted with nitriles by a [2+2+2] cycloaddition pathway to give annulated pyridines or 2,2′-bipyridines. The regioselectivity of the reaction is controlled by a combination of steric and electronic effects. The reaction of diynes with a terminal trimethylsilyl group gave the
Ruthenium-Catalyzed Transfer Oxygenative [2 + 2 + 1] Cycloaddition of Silyldiynes Using Nitrones as Adjustable Oxygen Atom Donors. Synthesis of Bicyclic 2-Silylfurans
The first example of the Ru-catalyzed transfer oxygenative [2 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition of silyldiynes to produce bicyclic 2-silylfurans is described. This cyclization process was realized using nitrones as readily available and adjustable oxygen atom donors. The bicyclic silylfuran products could be used as platforms for a diverse range of functionalized furans.
