Highly Diastereoselective Conjugate Addition of Lithium Dialkylamides to α,β-Unsaturated Esters Having a Chiral Center at the γ-Position
摘要:
The conjugate addition of lithium amides 2 to tert-butyl 4-(OR)-substituted-2-pentenoates 1 produced a mixture of the syn-and anti-amino esters (3 and 4) in high yields. Sterically bulky OR groups, such as trityloxy and tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy, gave the syn diastereomer 3 either exclusively or predominantly. The syn-selectivity may be explained by a modified Felkin-Anh model. The use of tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy as an OR group afforded a nearly 1:1 mixture of diastereoisomers, and the use of the smallest MeO group produced a 63:37 mixture of the syn 3 and anti isomer 4. The presence of Me group at the alpha-position (C-2 position) of the enoate enhanced the syn diastereoselectivity up to 100%; the conjugate addition to tert-butyl 4-methoxy-2-methyl-2-pentenoate (17) gave the syn-isomer 18 exclusively. This enhancement may be explained by the combination of chelation and allylic strain model 19 in which the smallest H orients inside to avoid an allylic strain. A phenyl group at the gamma-position enhanced the anti selectivity in the case of gamma-alkoxy-alpha,beta-enoates such as isopropyl 4-[(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]-4-phenyl-2-buteonoate (20), and in the case of gamma-alkyl-alpha,beta-enoates such as tert-butyl 4-phenyl-2-pentenoate (27).

The preparations of new allylicfluorides from the corresponding alcohols are reported. Conformational analysis is achieved by comparison of experimental NMR measurements with theoretical (B3LYP) calculations of relative energies of conformers and J(H,H) and J(H,F) coupling constants. The Diels-Alder reactions of allylicfluorides are investigated experimentally and theoretically. The stereoselectivities
