A general, regioselective synthesis of substituted benzocyclobutenedione monoacetals
摘要:
A general, regioselective synthesis of substituted benzocyclobutenedione monoacetals is reported. Palladium-catalyzed coupling of a variety of 4-chlorocyclobutenones with 3-(tri-n-butylstannyl)-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione 2-(ethylene acetal) and heating up to 70-100-degrees-C produces substituted benzocyclobutenedione monoacetals in good to excellent yields. Thia chemistry is presumed to proceed through palladium-catalyzed formation of a 3-(1-oxo-2-cyclobuten-4-yl)-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione-2-(ethylene acetal) followed by a thermally induced ring opening to a dienyl ketene and subsequent six-electron electrocyclic ring closure and tautomerization. 2,3-Disubstituted 4-chlorocyclobutenones afford palladium intermediates which couple exclusively at the least-substituted allylic terminus. 2,3,4-Trisubstituted 4-chlorocyclobutenones have not been studied in detail; however, preliminary results suggest that regioselective allylic cross-coupling can be achieved. The methodology described provides an expedient and efficient route to previously difficult-to-prepare benzocyclobutenedione derivatives. These function as important synthetic intermediates in a variety of reactions developed in these and other laboratories.

Substituted quinolizin-4-ones and ring-fused alpha-pyridone derivatives have been synthesized by the construction of 2,3-disubstituted-4-(2-azaheteroaryl)-2-cyclobutenones followed by thermal rearrangment. 4-(2-Azaheteroaryl)-2-cyclobutenones have been prepared regioselectively by the addition of 2-lithioazaheteroaromatics to cyclobutenediones and by palladium catalyzed cross-coupling of 4-chloro-2-cyclobutenones with 2-tri-n-stannylazaheteroaromatics. The thermal transformation is proposed to occur by ring-opening of the cyclobutenone followed by intramolecular cyclization of the transient vinylketene onto the carbon-nitrogen double bond of the azaheteroaromatic. A variety of quinolizin-4-ones, imidazo [1,2-a]pyridin-5-ones, 1-oxopyrido[2,1-b]benzothiazoles, and thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridin-5-ones were prepared.
