Dual Function Catalysts. Dehydrogenation and Asymmetric Intramolecular Diels−Alder Cycloaddition of N-Hydroxy Formate Esters and Hydroxamic Acids: Evidence for a Ruthenium−Acylnitroso Intermediate
摘要:
The chiral ruthenium salen complex, 13b, functions as an efficient catalyst for the sequential oxidation and asymmetric Diels-Alder cycloaddition of hydroxamic acids and N-hydroxy formate esters. This result provides evidence for the formation of a ruthenium-nitroso formate (acyl nitroso) intermediate. The Diels-Alder precursors are prepared from simple building blocks, and the cycloadducts, bridged oxazinolactams, can serve as useful intermediates in organic synthesis.
Nitrile oxides are oxidized by tertiary amine N-oxides in different solvents at room temperature to afford in the presence of dienes nitrosocarbonyl adducts in fair yields. The mild conditions used in oxidizing a variety of nitrile oxides promise a wide application of this method in synthetic processes.
