Phosphine-catalyzed regioselective heteroaromatization between activated alkynes and isocyanides leading to pyrroles
摘要:
The organophosphine catalyzed reaction of activated alkynes with isocyanides produces the corresponding heteroaromatization products, pyrroles, regioselectively in good yields. The reaction proceeds most probably through the 1,4-addition of the nucleophilic phosphine catalyst to the alkynes, followed by a [3+2] cycloaddition between the resulting alkenyl phosphine intermediates and a carbanion derived from the isocyanides.

Only little waste: Aryl ether formation is accomplished by oxidative condensation of alcohols and 2‐cyclohexenones. The reaction complements the existing methods used by synthetic chemists to obtain aryl ethers, and allows a straightforward access to a wide range of functionalized products. In addition, the catalytic reaction with O2 as the oxidant generates water as the only by‐product and provides

offers a convenient route for the synthesis of six-membered cyclicacetals, which are common substructures of polyketide natural products. When conjugated 6-hydroxyhexynoates are used as starting materials, either five-membered cyclic E-enol ethers or the corresponding acetals can be obtained by simply choosing the appropriate reaction solvent. NMR spectroscopic studies were carried out to determine the

phosphepine 1 catalyzes the transformation of an array of hydroxy‐2‐alkynoates into saturated oxygenheterocycles with good enantioselectivity. Phenols are also shown to participate in such phosphine‐catalyzed cyclizations, including an asymmetric variant. This method provides a new approach to the enantioselectivesynthesis of tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, and dihydrobenzopyrans.
The copper-catalyzed reaction of isocyanides (CNCH(2)EWG(1)) 1 with electron-deficient alkynes (RC equivalent to CEWG(2)) 2 gave the 2,4-di-EWG-substituted pyrroles 3 selectively, whereas the phosphine-catalyzed reaction of 1 with 2 afforded the 2,3-di-EWG-subsituted pyrroles 4. Accordingly, regioselective synthesis of substituted pyrroles has been achieved by merely choosing the catalyst.
TBAF-catalyzed cyclization of 6-hydroxyhex-2-ynoates and 7-hydroxyhept-2-ynoates
Tetrabutyl ammonium fluoride (TBAF) was found to be capable of catalyzing the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of 6-hydroxyhex-2-ynoates and 7-hydroxyhept-2-ynoates. The reaction could be used to prepare 2,5-substituted THF rings and 2,6-substituted THP rings. (C) 2011 Wei Yu. Published by Elsevier BY, on behalf of Chinese Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
