Phosphine-Catalyzed Dual Umpolung Domino Michael Reaction: Facile Synthesis of Hydroindole- and Hydrobenzofuran-2-Carboxylates
摘要:
A highly atom-economical, chemoselective, and stereoselective Lewis base (LB)-catalyzed dual umpolung domino Michael reaction between cyclohexadienones and alkynyl esters has been developed. PPh3, as a LB catalyst, afforded either the hydroindole-2-carboxylates or hydrobenzofuran-2-carboxylates 3 as a single diastereomer in high yields (up to 89%). An obtained product could be easily transformed to a (S*,S*,R*)-octahydroindole-2-carboxylic acid ((S*,S*,R*)-Oic) analogue.
Phosphine‐Catalyzed β,γ‐Umpolung Domino Reaction of Allenic Esters: Facile Synthesis of Tetrahydrobenzofuranones Bearing a Chiral Tetrasubstituted Stereogenic Carbon Center
enantio‐, diastereo‐, regio‐, and chemoselective phosphine‐catalyzedβ,γ‐umpolungdominoreaction of allenicesters with dienones has been developed for the first time. The designed sequence, involving oxy‐Michael and Rauhut–Currier reactions, produced highly functionalized tetrahydrobenzofuranones, bearing a chiraltetrasubstitutedstereogeniccenter, in up to 96 % ee.
Teaming up: The title reaction has been developed to deliver the product α‐alkylidene‐γ‐butyrolactones as single diastereomers with up to 98 % ee (see scheme; Ts=4‐toluenesulfonyl). The enantioselective process is catalyzed by 1, which contains both Lewis base and Brønsted acid moieties.
The acid–base organocatalyzed intramolecularRauhut–Currier (RC) reaction of the dienone enolates has been developed. The enantioselective RC process produces the highly functionalized α-methylidene-γ-butyrolactones as a single diastereomer with up to 98% ee.
