Dearomatization of Naphthalene: Stereoselective cis-1,4 Tandem Additions Promoted by Osmium(II)
摘要:
The naphthalene complex of pentaammineosmium(II) (1) reacts with four different classes of electrophiles to form 1-naphthalenium species 2-5. These eta(3)-allyl complexes react stereospecifically with a variety of nucleophiles to form cis-1,4-dihydronaphthalene complexes. The entire reaction sequence may be performed outside a glovebox in two steps using conventional techniques.

Dihapto-coordinated naphthalene complexes of the form TpRe(CO)(L)(eta(2) -naphthalene) (L = PMe3, pyridine, or 1-methylimidazole) undergo electrophilic addition with dimethoxymethane and with various Michael acceptors to generate 1H-naphthalenium species. These naphthalenium. complexes undergo intra- or intermolecular nucleophilic addition reactions with stabilized enolates, silyl ketene acetals, or enols to form the corresponding dihydronaphthalene complexes. Oxidative decomplexation generates the free dihydronaphthalene. When a resolved form of the rhenium dearomatization agent is used, these reactions can be performed enantioselectively. DFT calculations provide a useful guide in explaining the observed stereochemistry. Depending on reaction conditions, a Michael-Michael ring-closure sequence (MIMIRC) or a net [2 + 4] cycloaddition with the bound naphthalene is also observed, and the corresponding tricyclic molecules can be removed from the metal in high yield.

A series of complexes of the form TpRe(CO)(L)(eta(2)-naphthalene) (Tp = hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate) undergoes tandem electrophile/nucleophile addition reactions with a high degree of regiocontrol depending on the auxiliary ligand, L. When L = PMe3, the reaction of the eta(2)-naphthalene complex with triflic acid followed by a silyl ketene acetal favors the 1,4-addition product, whereas when L = pyridine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine, N-methylimidazole, or NH3 the 1,2-addition product is favored. These reactions proceed with excellent stereocontrol: both electrophile (H+, D+) and nucleophile (silyl ketene acetal) add anti to the face of metal coordination, and a single coordination diastereomer can be isolated for each reaction. one-electron oxidation of the Re complex affords the corresponding free dihydronaphthalene in good yield.
