Regioisomerism in the Ritter reaction. 1. Synthesis of 3,3,5,6,7-, 3,3,6,7,8-, 3,3,5,7,8-, and 3,3,5,6,8-pentamethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines from 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzenes
摘要:
Reactions of 1,2,3- or 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene with isobutyraldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate (ECA) or reactions of the corresponding 1-aryl-2-methylpropan-1-ols with ECA afforded isomeric 3,3,5,6,7-, 3,3,6,7,8-, 3,3,5,7,8-, and 3,3,5,6,8-pentamethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinotines. Isomerization is explained as the ring opening of a spiran intermediate in two possible ways followed by the Jacobsen rearrangement.
