Phosphine/Palladium-Catalyzed Syntheses of Alkylidene Phthalans, 3-Deoxyisoochracinic Acid, Isoochracinic Acid, and Isoochracinol
摘要:
In this study we used sequential catalysis-PPh3-catalyzed nucleophilic addition followed by Pd(0)-catalyzed Heck cyclization-to construct complex functionalized alkylidene phthalans rapidly, in high yields, and with good stereoselectivities (E/Z ratios of up to 1:22). The scope of this Michael-Heck reaction includes substrates bearing various substituents around the alkylidene phthalan backbone. Applying this efficient sequential catalysis, we accomplished concise total syntheses of 3-deoxyisoochacinic acid, isoochracinic acid, and isoochracinol.
Direct ortho-C–H Functionalization of Aromatic Alcohols Masked by Acetone Oxime Ether via exo-Palladacycle
摘要:
Use of an iridium catalyst allowed the efficient dehydrogenative functionalization of C-H bonds of azulenes with the production of hydrogen as the sole byproduct. The reaction occurred with excellent chemo- and regioselectivities to provide 2-silylazulenes even without any directing groups. Effective conjugation through the 2-position of the azulene ring was demonstrated by the unique stimuli-responsiveness against an acidbase reaction.
