(Z)-.alpha.-(trimethylsilyl) .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated esters. Their stereoselective conversion into .alpha.,.beta.- and .beta.,.gamma.-unsaturated esters and .beta.,.gamma.-unsaturated ketene acetals
摘要:
Deprotonation of methyl (Z)-alpha-(trimethylsilyl) alpha,beta-unsaturated esters with lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) or with lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LHMDS) in the presence of hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) as an activator, followed by protonation of the intermediate dienolates with methanol, produces stereoselectively the desilylated (E)-3-alkenoic esters. Trapping the dienolates with chlorotrimethylsilane instead of methanol and then treatment of the resultant ketene acetals with aqueous hydrochloric acid affords (E)-alpha-(trimethylsilyl)-beta,gamma-alkenoic esters in 98% isomeric purities. In the absence of HMPA, (Z)-alpha-(trimethylsilyl)-alpha, beta-alkenoic esters undergo a Michael-type addition with LDA to furnish, after methanol-mediated elimination of the diisopropylamine moiety, (E)-alpha-(trimethylsilyl)-alpha,beta-alkenoic esters. In contrast to the behavior with the corresponding Z esters, deprotonation of the E esters with LDA does not require an activator. Treatment of the dienolate intermediates formed with chlorotrimethylsilane yields (O-methyl-C,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)ketene acetals, and alkylation furnishes (E)-alpha-alkyl beta,gamma-unsaturated esters. Protodesilylation of the latter compounds with tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride followed by hydrolytic workup provides trisubstituted 2-alkenoates.

transfer process that leads to selective access of chiral allylic fluorides with a cis-olefin geometry. In the absence of a photocatalyst or light, the reaction proceeds smoothly to give (E)-olefin products, while the (Z)-isomer can be obtained under photosensitizing conditions. Preliminary mechanistic experiments suggest that an energy transfer process might be operative.
[reaction: see text] Two short synthetic approaches toward cryptophycin unit A comprise a catalytic asymmetric dihydroxylation as the sole source of chirality, while all further stereogenic centers are introduced under substrate control. The key step of the first route is a vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol addition, which introduces the alpha,beta-unsaturated ester moiety with defined configuration at the

Carboxylation of allylic alcohols with carbondioxide is accomplished by photoredox/nickel dual catalysis, generating linear acids exclusively with good Z/E stereoselectivity. Hantzsch ester is employed as the reductant instead of stoichiometric metallic reductants, and the reaction can be conducted under room temperature with a blue LED light source. Mechanisticstudies reveal that the presence of
烯丙醇与二氧化碳的羧基化是通过光氧化还原/镍双重催化完成的,仅生成具有良好Z/E立体选择性的线性酸。采用 Hantzsch 酯代替化学计量的金属还原剂作为还原剂,反应可以在室温下用蓝色 LED 光源进行。机理研究表明,该催化体系中水的存在对反应的成功至关重要,并且反应更有可能在原位形成的烯丙基碳酸氢盐的氧化加成中进行。

blue-light-emitting diode (LED) light. The reaction proceeds with α-bromoesters, α-bromonitriles, and α-bromo-γ-lactones along with terminal and 1,2-disubstituted internal alkenes. Reactions with indenes and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes generate alkylated alkenes. Mechanistic studies by product selectivity and three-way competitive crossover experiments suggest that the reaction operates by a radical-addition radical-pairing
Homo- and cross-coupling involving alkenyl halides have been performed efficiently using an electroassisted nickel-complex catalysis. Valuable product such as conjugated dienes, beta,gamma- or gamma,delta-unsaturated esters, ketones, or nitriles, as well as alkenylated aryl compounds are thus prepared with high yields and high stereoselectivity. Partial isomerization is only observed in a few cases, when the alkenyl halide is involved in a late step of the catalytic cycle. This is the case in the preparation of (Z,Z)-1,3-diene.
