Captodative olefin 3-p-nitrobenzoyloxy-3-buten-2-one asa diels-alder ketene equivalent for the synthesisof γ-hydroxycyclohexenones
摘要:
A short and regioselective synthesis of gamma-hydroxycyclohexenones is described, using 3-p-nitrobenzoyloxy-3-buten-2-one (2a) as a ketene equivalent in Diels-Alder reactions with substituted dienes. Oxidation with MCPBA of the alpha-acetylcyclohexenol derivative, obtained by hydrolysis of the cycloadducts, led to the corresponding gamma-hydroxycyclohexenones in moderate overall yields. Evidence of the mechanism is provided. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
