A method for the stereoselective construction of 4-alkoxy-5-alkylidenecyclopentenones by the tandem ring expansion-functionalization of 1-alkynylcyclobutenols using a palladium-mercury cocatalytic system
摘要:
1-(1-Alkynyl)-4-methoxy-4-methyl-2-cyclobutenols, prepared by nucleophilic functionalization of cyclobutenediones, were transformed with high stereoselectivity into 4-methoxy-4-methyl-5-alkylidenecyclopentenones. The action of stoichiometric Hg(OCOCF3)(2) and then metathesis with NaCl produced 5-(1-(chloromercurio)alkylidene)-4-methoxy-4-methyl-2-cyclopentenones which were stereospecifically functionalized by palladium-mediated allylation and hydroxybutenylation. Treatment with Br-2/DMSO led to stereospecific bromodemercuration. The 1-(1-alkynyl)-4-methoxy-4-methyl-2-cyclobutenols underwent efficient and very stereoselective tandem ring expansion-functionalizations in the presence of three different allylic chlorides and a catalyst system composed of 10% Hg(OCOCF3)(2) and 10% PdCl2. All products can be obtained with a stereoselectivity greater than 99:1 at the exocyclic alkene.

Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) are important targets in medicinal chemistry. These enzymes play a role in a number of human diseases, including type 11 diabetes and infection by Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of bubonic plague. Derivatives of squaric acids such as 2-aryl-1-hydroxycyclobut-1-ene-3,4-diones represent a new class of monoanionic inhibitors for PTPases.

A potentially general regiospecific synthesis of benzo- and naphthoquinones is described. This method starts with dimethyl squarate (1), which is converted to the cyclobutenone ketal 3 upon sequential treatment with an organolithium reagent and then BF3 etherate or TFAA in THF/methanol. Treatment of these with a second lithium reagent followed by hydrolysis gives the cyclobutenones 5. Addition of an alkynyl-, alkenyl- or aryllithium agent to 5 followed by hydrolysis of the ketal linkage gives the corresponding 4-alkynyl- 4-alkenyl- or 4-aryl-4-hydroxycyclobutenones 7-9, and these readily rearrange to the respective quinones or hydroquinones upon thermolysis in refluxing benzene. In a similar fashion, 15 was employed as a reagent to prepare mono- and disubstituted hydroquinones and quinones.
