Regiodivergent Iodocyclizations for the Highly Diastereoselective Synthesis of syn- and anti-Hydroxyl-Isochromanones and -Isobenzofuranones: Concise Synthesis of the Isochromanone Core of the Ajudazols
摘要:
An efficient synthetic strategy to access hydroxyl-isochromanone and -isobenzofurans from readily available joint alkene precursors by a regiodivergent one-pot iodocyclization-substitution tandem process is reported. The cyclizations proceed with excellent diastereoselectivities, with E-alkenes giving syn-configured products and Z-alkenes giving anti-products. A strong influence of light on the regioselectivity of the reaction was observed. High yields were also observed under radical conditions. The protective-group-free method enables a highly concise synthesis of the authentic isochromanone core of the ajudazols, which are highly potent inhibitors of the mitochondrial respiratory chain.

Decarboxylative borylation of aryl and alkenyl carboxylic acids with bis(pinacolato)diboron was achieved through N-hydroxyphthalimide esters using tert-butyl isonicotinate as a catalyst under base-free conditions. A variety of aryl carboxylic acids possessing different functional groups and electronic properties can be smoothly converted to aryl boronate esters, including those that are difficult to

Aliphatic terminal alkenes react with pinacolborane at ambienttemperature to afford dehydrogenative borylation compounds as the major product when iPr‐Foxap is used as the ligand with cationic rhodium(I) in the presence of norbornene, which acts as the sacrificial hydrogen acceptor. The reaction is applied to the one‐pot syntheses of aldehydes and homoallylic alcohols from aliphatic terminal alkenes

four stages: 1) isomerization of the alkyne into the vinylidene, 2) oxidative addition of the borane reagent, 3) vinylidene insertion into the RhH bond, and finally 4) reductive elimination of the CB bond to yield the 1‐alkenylboronate. Calculations indicated that the vinylidene insertion is the selectivity‐determining step. This result was consistent with the observed Zselectivity when the sterically

Rhodium-Catalyzed Reaction of 1-Alkenylboronates with Aldehydes Leading to Allylation Products
Synthetic equivalents: 1‐Alkenylboronates perform the role of an allylating reagent. Their reaction with aldehydes in the presence of a cationic rhodium(I)/dppm catalyst results in a highly diastereoselective production of anti‐configured homoallylic alcohols (see scheme; Bpin=4,4,5,5‐tetramethyl‐1,3,2‐dioxaborolanyl).
