Use of radical ring opening for introduction of alkyl and substituted alkyl groups with stereochemical control: a synthetic application of cyclopropylcarbinyl radicals
摘要:
Cyclopropylcarbinols 2a and 2b (see Scheme I), which are accessible by a number of routes, can be converted into the corresponding radicals 3a and 3b, respectively. These radicals undergo peripheral ring-opening of the cyclopropyl substructure to afford substituted cycloalkenes 4a and 4b. The whole sequence represents a general method for attaching alkyl, and substituted alkyl, groups to an existing cyclic structure, and it can often be carried out with predictable stereo- and regiochemical control. Reaction conditions for the ring-opening depend on the substitution pattern of the cyclopropane: where the non-bridgehead carbon of the cyclopropane carries a strongly electron-withdrawing group, the ring-opening can be done at the reflux temperature of benzene. However, in the absence of such electron-withdrawing groups, a low temperature is best used in order to suppress ring expansion. Various methods that accommodate these requirements are available for generating the radicals.
