Total Regio- and Diastereocontrol in the Aldol Reactions of Dienolborinates
摘要:
It is reported that appropriate dienolborinates can provide access to both diastereomers of 2-(hydroxymethyl)but-3-enoates through exclusive alpha-regiocontrol in a non-vinylogous pathway. Contrary to previous reports in which dialkylchloroboranes failed to enolize propanoates, acidity-enhanced but-3-enoates readily undergo enolization, offering unprecedented control over the formation of these valuable synthons. The first example of an aldol reaction in the presence of a phosphine-borane adduct is also reported.

Terminal alkynes having a bulky substituent dehydrogenatively couple with unactivated terminal alkenes with catalysis of palladium. The terminal sp carbon forms a bond with the internal sp2 carbon of the alkene regioselectively to produce branched, conjugated 1,3‐enynes with wide functional group tolerance.

BLA=0? Not so fast! A series of tetraarylcumulenes up to the length of a [9]cumulene has been synthesized and analyzed by X‐ray crystallography. The structural data show a distinct reduction in bond‐length alternation (BLA) as a function of moleculelength, but this trend appears to reach a limit before a cumulenic structure with BLA=0 is achieved.
BLA = 0?没那么快!X射线晶体学合成并分析了一系列直至[9]异丙苯的长度的四芳基枯烯。结构数据表明,键长交替(BLA)随分子长度的变化明显减少,但在达到BLA = 0的累积结构之前,这种趋势似乎已达到极限。

[GRAPHICS]We describe the synthesis of alpha,alpha-dibromomethyl ynones (8) and their subsequent derivatization to vinyl acetates (10). These vinyl acetates feature a 1,1-dibromo-olefin moiety, which is readily exploited in palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira, Stille, and Suzuki cross-coupling reactions with alkynes, stannanes, and boronic acids, respectively. A novel one-pot process then directly converts the resulting vinyl acetates 11-13 to the vinyl triflate derivatives 14a-j.
