A new protocol has been developed for the synthesis of substituted thiophenes under mild and metal-free reaction conditions via the base-promoted thioannulation of Morita–Baylis–Hillman acetates of acetylenic aldehydes with potassium thioacetate involving a tandem allylic substitution/deacetylative 5-exo-dig-thiocycloisomerization. The obtained products provide an entry to 4H-thieno[3,2-c]chromene
已开发出一种新的方案,用于在温和且无金属的反应条件下,通过Morita-Baylis-Hillman乙炔醛乙酸盐与硫代乙酸钾的碱促进硫代环化反应,合成串联噻吩取代/去乙酰化5-exo-挖-硫代环异构化。所获得的产物提供了4 H-噻吩并[3,2- c ]亚甲基和噻吩并[3,2- c ]二氢喹啉的入口。
Synthesis of substituted 3-furanoates from MBH-acetates of acetylenic aldehydes via tandem isomerization–deacetylation–cycloisomerization: access to Elliott's alcohol
A new method for the synthesis of 5-substituted furan-3-carboxylates from MoritaâBaylisâHillman acetates of acetylenic aldehydes is reported. The process involves palladium-catalyzed isomerization followed by base-promoted deacetylation and cycloisomerization reactions. The utility of this chemistry is further demonstrated by the synthesis of Elliott's alcohol, a key intermediate of the pyrethroid resmethrins.
