Lithium 3-Lithio-3-tosylalkanoates: .beta.-Acylvinyl Anion Equivalents of .beta.-Lithiated .alpha.,.beta.-Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids
摘要:
The dilithiation of beta-tosylated propanoic, 2-methylpropanoic, and butanoic acid 10 with n-butyllithium at -78 degrees C leads to the corresponding lithium 3-lithio-3-tosylalkanoates 11. They react with different electrophilic reagents (deuterium oxide, iodine, trimethylchlorosilane, alkyl halides, and acyl chlorides) to give the corresponding 3-substituted tosylated alkanoic acids 12. When carbonyl compounds are allowed to react with intermediates 11 followed by in situ lactonization with trifluoracetic anhydride and base-promoted elimination alpha,beta-butenolides are obtained. This methodology is applied to the direct synthesis of the rosefuran lactone precursor 14cg, the O-benzyl derivative of (+/-)-umbelactone (14ch), and (+/-)-andirolactone (14ci). The alkylation and acylation reactions of organolithium compounds 11 followed by esterification with hydrogen chloride in methanol and treatment with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) afford alpha,beta- and/or beta,gamma-unsaturated esters 17 and/or 18 and unsaturated 4-keto esters 19, respectively. The last methodology has been applied to the synthesis of the unsaturated 4-keto ester 19ae precursor of the seco acid of (+/-)-pyrenophorin (22).
prepared using Schiff's bases derived from aromatic aldehydes and amines or α-aminoesters. These complexes are versatile catalyst for the reaction between aliphatic aldehydes and various alkenes. The outcome of the reaction is controlled by the electronic nature of the alkene as the electron deficient alkenes undergo oxidative addition of aldehydes followed by dioxygen incorporation to yield 2-hydr

Methyl trans-4-oxo-2-alkenoates are synthesized in 64-93% yields by successive treatment of 5-substituted 2,2-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydrofurans with N-bromosuccinimide in aqueous acetone and triethylamine in ether.
