Synthesis of Pyrrolin-4-ones by Pt-Catalyzed Cycloisomerization in PEG under Microwaves
摘要:
The unprecedented eco-friendly Pt-catalyzed 5-endo-dig cycloisomerization of readily available a-amino ynones is reported under microwave irradiation in PEG-3400 as reaction matrix. The corresponding pure pyrrolin-4-ones were obtained in excellent yields (80-98%) directly after a straightforward precipitation-filtration workup, thus avoiding any chromatographic purification. The catalytic system was recycled and the chiral purity of all the products was also investigated.
The unprecedented electrophilic iodo-mediated cyclization of α-amino-ynones afforded enantiomerically enriched β-iodopyrrolin-4-ones in excellent yields under mild conditions. The starting substituted α-amino-ynones were obtained from the chiral pool by selective mono-addition of an organolithium to optically pure N-protected carboxyanhydrides of amino acids (UNCAs).
