Investigation of a model for 1,2-asymmetric induction in reactions of .alpha.-carbalkoxy radicals: a stereochemical comparison of reactions of .alpha.-carbalkoxy radicals and ester enolates
摘要:
The stereochemical course of reductions and allylations of alpha-carbalkoxy radicals with chiral centers at the beta-position are reported. Radicals without polar substituents, with alkoxyl or acetoxyl groups, and with hydroxyl groups at the beta-position were examined. Reactions showed selectivities ranging from low (50:50) to high (99:1). The results are discussed in terms of transition-state models that emphasize the importance of (1) allylic conformational analysis (minimization of A1,3 and A1,2 strain), (2) torisonal strain (minimization of eclipsed interactions), and (3) stereoelectronic effects.
ESR measurements and AM1 calculations show that ester substituted radicals 2 and 6 prefer conformation A as a result of allylicstrain effects. But dipolar repulsion between substituents X and CO2Et In 2 and 6 has a pronounced effect on the conformation and the stereoselectivity of radicals 2 and 6.
ESR测量和AM1计算表明,由于烯丙基应变效应,酯取代的基团2和6更偏爱构象A。但是,取代基X和CO 2 Et In 2和6之间的偶极排斥力对自由基2和6的构象和立体选择性具有显着影响。
