چکیده
The Rh-catalyzed [2 + 2 2] cycloaddition of diynes and alkynes is a synthetically useful transformation that rapidly constructs complex scaffolds has been used extensively for >70 years. Despite this utility, substrate reactivity issues persist, which are not mechanistically defined. Here, we provide general predictive model turnover reaction. Contrary to the proposed electronic model, predominately sterically driven process where productive proportional alkyne steric parameters. This allows priori prediction catalyst loading, turnover, reaction yield based on simple assessment parameter (e.g., A-value) alkyne. relationship reciprocal, allowing A-values be calculated from observed turnover.

Reactivity and Chemoselectivity of Allenes in Rh(I)-Catalyzed Intermolecular (5 + 2) Cycloadditions with Vinylcyclopropanes: Allene-Mediated Rhodacycle Formation Can Poison Rh(I)-Catalyzed Cycloadditions
Allenes are important 2π building blocks in organic synthesis and engage as 2-carbon components in many metal-catalyzed reactions. Wender and co-workers discovered that methyl substituents on the terminal allene double bond counterintuitively change the reactivities of allenes in [Rh(CO)2Cl]2-catalyzed intermolecular (5 + 2) cycloadditions with vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs). More sterically encumbe...
متن کاملThe origin of the ligand-controlled regioselectivity in Rh-catalyzed [(2 + 2) + 2] carbocyclizations: steric vs. stereoelectronic effects.
Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the reversal of regiochemical outcome of the addition for substituted methyl propiolates in the rhodium-catalyzed [(2 + 2) + 2] carbocyclization with PPh3 and (S)-xyl-binap as ligands is both electronically and sterically controlled. For example, the ester functionality polarizes the alkyne π* orbital to favor overlap of the methyl-substit...
متن کاملStructural Determinants of Alkyne Reactivity in Copper-Catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Cycloadditions.
This work represents our initial effort in identifying azide/alkyne pairs for optimal reactivity in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions. In previous works, we have identified chelating azides, in particular 2-picolyl azide, as "privileged" azide substrates with high CuAAC reactivity. In the current work, two types of alkynes are shown to undergo rapid CuAAC reactions u...

A new strategy for Rh(I)-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloadditions of 1,6-diynes with potassium (Z)-(2-bromovinyl)trifluoroborate as the third two-atom unit has been realized, which provides a facile entry to polysubstituented benzene derivatives.
متن کاملMechanism, Reactivity, and Selectivity of Nickel-Catalyzed [4 + 4 + 2] Cycloadditions of Dienes and Alkynes
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations with B3LYP and M06 functionals elucidated the reactivities of alkynes and Z/E selectivity of cyclodecatriene products in the Ni-catalyzed [4 + 4 + 2] cycloadditions of dienes and alkynes. The Ni-mediated oxidative cyclization of butadienes determines the Z/E selectivity. Only the oxidative cyclization of one s-cis to one s-trans butadiene is facile a...
