A concise synthesis of 3,4-fused spiro[isobenzofuran-3-ones], spiro[furo[3,4- b ]pyridin-5(7 H )-ones], 3-aryl-, and alkylphthalides
摘要:
A synthetically useful protocol has been developed for the preparation of highly functionalized 3,4-fused spiro[isobenzofuran-3-ones], spiro[furo[3,4-b]pyridin-5(7H)-ones], 3-aryl-, and alkylphthalides. Reaction of 2-iodobenzoate esters and 2-iodopyridine carboxylate esters with i-PrMgCl center dot LiCl in the presence of cyclic ketones under standard Barbier reaction conditions affords 3,4-fused spiro[isobenzofuran-3-ones] and spiro[furo[3,4-b]pyridin-5(7H)-ones] in good to excellent yields. Step-wise addition of i-PrMgCl center dot LiCl to 2-iodobenzoate esters followed by trapping with various aldehydes yields 3-aryl and 3-alkylphthalides; whereas, under similar conditions access to 3-aryl and 3-alylazaphthalides is also possible. Extension of this methodology toward the preparation of 3-n-butylphthalide and chrycolide, a natural product isolated from the leaves and stems of Chrysanthemum coronarium, is also described.

Addition of arylzincs to aldehydes was achieved by making use of the novel transmetallation of arylzincs into Cr3+ compounds. Various α-substituted benzyl alcohols or 3-substituted 1(3H)-isobenzofuranones, containing reactive functional groups, were synthesized in good yields. Me3SiCl exerted beneficial effects on the reaction.

benzhydrols 4a-f in good yields. From arylzinc compounds 1a,b, 3-aryl-1(3H)-isobenzofuranones 3a-f were given by the CrCl(3)-mediated reaction with arylaldehydes 2a-f. Diaryl ketones 5a-e were obtained in good yields by the addition of excess amount of benzaldehyde as an oxidant to the resulting solution after the CrCl(3)-mediated reaction between arylzinc compounds 1c-g and arylaldehydes 2b,g was completed
corresponding phthalide derivative 3 u. This synthetic method is compatible with a variety of functional groups on the aryl ring of 2. The high efficiency of the cobalt catalyst containing a dppe (dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) ligand encouraged us to investigate the asymmetric version of the present catalytic reaction by employing bidentatechiral ligands. Thus, aromatic aldehydes 2 a-c, 2 f
