Reactivity of Individual Organolithium Aggregates: A RINMR Study of n-Butyllithium and 2-Methoxy-6-(methoxymethyl)phenyllithium
摘要:
Low-temperature rapid injection NMR (RINMR) experiments were performed on two lithium reagents, n-butyllithium and 2-methoxy-6-(methoxymethyl) phenyllithium ( 5), with the goal of measuring the relative reactivity of the different aggregates ( dimer, mixed dimer, and tetramer for n-BuLi, monomer and tetramer for 5) toward typical electrophiles. The reaction of the n-BuLi dimer with ( trimethylsilyl) acetylene first forms the mixed dimer n-(BuLiMe3SiC)-Me-. CLi, which is about 1/60 as reactive as the n-BuLi homodimer. The tetramer does not react. In the deprotonation of (phenylthio) acetylene, the n-BuLi dimer was found to be 3.5 x 10(8) as reactive as the tetramer, and in the addition to p-diethylaminobenzaldehyde, the relative reactivity was at least 2 x 10(4). In the deprotonation of (p-tolylsulfonyl) acetylene, the monomer of 5 was at least 1014 times as reactive as the tetramer. These measurements show that the difference in reactivity between the lower and higher aggregates of organolithium reagents can be many orders of magnitude higher than all previous estimates.
Three different substituted thiazoles have been successfully synthesized from readily available propargylic alcohols. Various secondary propargylic alcohols or tertiary propargylic alcohols participated well in the reaction, providing the desired products in good yields. This method provides a flexible and rapid route to substituted thiazoles.
α-Sulfanyl and α-Selanyl Propadienyl Cations: Regioselective Generations and Cycloadditions with Thioamides and Selemides Controlled by MeNO<sub>2</sub>−H<sub>2</sub>O System
α-Sulfanyl and α-selanyl propadienyl cations were easily generated by the catalytic system, scandium triflate-nitromethane-H2O in the presence of Bu4NHSO4, to regioselectively afford the multifunctionalized thiazoles and selenazoles in high yields.

Cobalt-assisted hydrosilylation of acetylenes is particularly interesting in organic synthesis since alkynyl group functionalization can give way to more useful substructures. This study aims to answer the general question of how to control hydrosilylationregioselectivity with unsymmetric alkynyl groups. Cobalt-catalyzed hydrosilylation is highlyregioselective with alkyl-phenylthio-acetylenes affording
Fused thiazinoimidazole synthesis from the sulfur‐ and selenium‐substituted propargylalcohols with 2‐mercaptoimidazoles were reported. The protocol is utilized for [3+3] annulation reactions of a wide variety of propargylalcohols with three types of 2‐mercaptoimidazoles. The reactions were regioselective, atom economical, and versatile. Further transmetalation and the successive hydration and alkylation
