First synthesis of functionalized 5-aryl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenols by regioselective [3+3] cyclocondensations of 1,3-bis(silyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 3-aryl-3-silyloxy-1-trifluoromethyl-2-en-1-ones
A variety of functionalized 5-aryl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenols were prepared by the first TiCl4-mediated [3+3] cyclocondensation of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 3-aryl-3-trimethylsilyloxy-1-trifluoromethyl-2-en-1-ones.
Synthesis of Functionalized Diaryldiazenes by Formal [3+3] Cyclizations of 1,3-Bis(silyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 2-Aryldiazenyl-3-silyloxy-2-en-1- ones
The formal [3+3] cyclization of 1,3-bis(silyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 2-aryldiazenyl-3-silyloxy- 2-en-1-ones afforded a variety of functionalized diaryl-diazenes.
were prepared by formal [3 + 3] cyclization of 1,3-bis(silylenolethers) with 3-silyloxy-2-en-1-ones or 1,1-diacetylcyclopropane to give functionalized salicylates, Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of the corresponding triflates, and subsequent BBr3-mediated lactonization. A second approach to dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones relies on the [3 + 3] cyclization of 1,3-bis(silylenolethers) with 1-(2-methoxyphe
Diversity-Oriented Synthesis of Functionalized 1-Aminopyrroles by Regioselective Zinc Chloride-Catalyzed, One-Pot ‘Conjugate Addition/Cyclization’ Reactions of 1,3-Bis(silyl enol ethers) with 1,2-Diaza-1,3-butadienes
convenient one-pot process, the easily accessible 1,2-diaza-1,3-butadienes and 1,3-bis(silyl enolethers) are converted into the previously unknown functionalized 1-aminopyrroles and 1-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles. The domino reaction proceeds through a zinc chloride-catalyzed ‘conjugate addition/cyclization’ sequence.
Regioselective synthesis of 3-(methylthio)phenols by formal [3+3]-cyclocondensations of 3-oxo-bis(methylthio)ketenacetals with 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes and 1,3-dicarbonyl dianions
The cyclization of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 3-oxo-bis(methylthio)ketenacetals afforded 3-(methylthio)phenols containing an acyl or ester substituent located at position 2. The cyclization of free 1,3-dicarbonyl dianions with 3-oxo-bis(methylthio)ketenacetals resulted in the formation of regioisomeric products containing an acyl group located at position 6.
