Studies on tandem transesterification and intramolecular cycloaddition of nitrones. 1. Sequential bicyclization of α-methoxycarbonylnitrones with allyl alcohols
摘要:
Treatment of alpha-methoxycarbonylnitrones with 5 equiv. of allyl alcohols in the presence of 1 equiv. of titanium tetraisopropoxide causes tandem transesterification, E,Z-isomerization of the nitrone moieties, and intramolecular cycloaddition to afford bicyclized compounds in one step. To reduce amounts of allyl alcohol, combined use of a catalytic amount of titanium tetraisopropoxide and molecular sieves 4A was found to be a more improved catalytic system, It was also found that reactions of (Z)-allyl alcohols with alpha-methoxycarbonylnitrone ate more facile than those of (E)-allyl alcohols. This aspect was extended to geometry differentiated cycloaddition.
Tandem Transesterification and Intramolecular Cycloaddition of α-Methoxycarbonylnitrones with Chiral Acyclic Allyl Alcohols: Systematic Studies on the Factors Affecting Diastereofacial Selectivity of the Cycloaddition
secondary chiral (Z)-allyl alcohols are used, A(1,3)-strain arising from the chiralities in the (Z)-nitrone transition states of the intramolecular cycloaddtion is the most important factor. In contrast, in the case of the reaction using chiral nitrones 1c,d and (E)-allyl alcohols, steric interaction between the chiral N-substituent and the trans substituent of the olefin moiety in the intermediate
The reaction of N-benzyl-, N-diphenylmethyl-, or N-(1-phenylpropyl)-α-methoxycarbonylmethanimine N-oxide newly prepared with acrylaldehyde in benzene, followed by hydrogenolysis over palladium hydroxide and by acid hydrolysis, gave 4-hydroxyprolines.
One step bicyclization by way of tandem transesterification, intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of α-methoxycarbonylnitrones with allyl alcohols in the presence of titanium isopropoxide
Treatment of alpha-methoxycarbonylnitrones with allyl alcohols in the presence of titanium isopropoxide caused tandem transesterification, E,Z-isomerization and intramolecular cycloaddition to provide stereocontrolled polycyclic compounds in one step.
