Electroorganic chemistry. 140. Electroreductively promoted intra- and intermolecular couplings of ketones with nitriles.
摘要:
Electroreduction of gamma and delta-cyano ketones in i-PrOH with Sn cathode gave alpha-hydroxy ketones and their dehydroxylated ketones as the intramolecularly coupled products. Guaiazulene, (-)-valeranone, polyquinanes, dihydrojasmone, methyl dihydrojasmonate, and rosaprostol have been synthesized by utilizing this electroreductive intramolecular coupling of gamma and delta-cyano ketones in one of the key steps. Similarly, electroreduction of a mixture of ketone and nitrile gave the corresponding intermolecularly coupled product. The product obtained by the electroreductive intermolecular coupling of (+)-dihydrocarvone with acetonitrile has been found to be the precursor of an effective chiral ligand for the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes.

Electroreduction of γ- and δ-cyanoketones in i-PrOH gave cyclized products α-hydroxyketones and their dehydroxylated ketones, and this reaction was applied to the synthesis of dihydrojasmone, methyl dihydrojasmonate, and Rosaprostol.
