Synthesis of Pyrrolidines and Pyrrolizidines with α-Pseudoquaternary Centers by Copper-Catalyzed Condensation of α-Diazodicarbonyl Compounds and Aryl γ-Lactams
usually dicarbonyl compounds, in a copper‐catalyzed process to yield functionalized pyrrolidines with α‐pseudoquaternary centers. As 1,2‐acyl or ‐phosphoryl migration is preferred, single regioisomers are obtained. Furthermore, in the presence of a Lewis acid, subsequent Friedel–Crafts reactions yield tricyclic pyrrolizidines in excellent yields (90–96 %) and diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1).
Herein, a de novo vinylogous reactivity of vinyl diazo esters in the C–H bond allylation of benzamides has been developed by coalescing cobalt and photoredox catalysis via C–H activation/allyl carbene migratory insertion. A close relationship between the high valent cobalt catalyst and the photocatalyst has been found to be crucial for this reactivity. The reaction uses oxygen as the sole oxidant and
We report herein, a modular, regioselective 1,3-oxyarylation of vinyl diazo esters via a Co-catalyzed C–H activation/carbenemigratoryinsertion cascade. The transformation involves the formation of C–C and C–O bonds in a one-pot fashion and displays a broad substrate scope with respect to both, vinyl diazo esters as well as benzamides. The coupled products were subjected to hydrogenation to access

Carboxylate and carboxamide ligands on dirhodium(II) catalysts can provide enormous regiocontrol in carbon-hydrogen insertion reactions of diazoacetate esters. Whereas 2,3,4-trimethyl-3-pentyl diazoacetoacetate (1) forms gamma-lactone products from insertion into primary and tertiary C-H bonds in a statistical distribution (61:39) with dirhodium(II) tetrakis(perfluorobutyrate), only tertiary C-H insertion is observed with dirhodium(II) tetraacetamide. Similar results are obtained with 2-methyl-2-octyl diazoacetoacetate (3), where competition for insertion exists between secondary and primary C-H bonds and electronic factors govern regioselection. However, with 2-methyl-3-isopropyl-3-heptyl diazoacetoacetate (2) and 2-methyl-1-phenyl-2-propyl diazoacetoacetate (4), product distributions from C-H insertion are invariant with the dirhodium(II) ligands; insertion into a secondary C-H bond is favored over tertiary C-H insertion with 2 (95:5), and insertion into a primary C-H bond is preferred to benzylic secondary C-H insertion with 4 (70:30). In such cases, which are amenable to analyses by MM2 calculations, regioselectivity is determined by conformational preferences for which C-H insertion selectivity can be as random as that found with 2 and 4. When only one C-H bond site is available for insertion to form a five-membered ring product, only one gamma-lactone is observed from reactions catalyzed by dirhodium(II) tetraacetate, and that product is not necessarily the one predicted by presumed electronic preferences.
