A Mild, Diastereoselective Construction of Cyclic and Spirocyclic Ketals Employing a Tandem Photoisomerization/Cyclization Tactic
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cyclization of trans-δ-hydroxy enones to cyclic mixed ketals routinely requires superstoichiometric strong acid. By operating under a photoisomerization regime, the cyclization of trans-δ-hydroxy enones proceeds under catalytic Brønsted acid to provide cyclic ketals or unsaturated spiroketals in a highly diastereoselective fashion. A one-pot, two-step protocol was thus developed to provide cyclic methoxy ketals with a free β-hydroxy group for future functionalization.

A construction of 4,4-spirocyclic γ-lactams by tandem radical cyclization with carbon monoxide
A straightforward synthesis of 4,4-spirocyclic indol γ-lactams by tandem radical cyclization of iodoaryl allyl azides with CO was achieved. The reaction of iodoaryl allyl azides, TTMSS and AIBN under CO pressure (80 atm) in THF at 80 °C gave the desired 4,4-spirocyclic indoline, benzofuran, and oxindole γ-lactams in moderate to good yields.

The reverse regio- and diastereoselectivities are observed between the reactions involving 5- and 6-membered-ring cyclic carbonyl ylide dipoles with alpha-methylene ketones. A mild catalytic route to synthesize spirocyclic systems with high regio-, chemo- and diastereoselectivities is described.
متن کاملDiastereoselective Synthesis of Highly Substituted Tetrahydrofurans by Pd-Catalyzed Tandem Oxidative Cyclization–Redox Relay Reactions Controlled by Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonding
Palladium-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of alkenols provides a convenient entry into cyclic ethers but typically proceeds with little or no diastereoselectivity for cyclization of trisubstituted olefins to form tetrahydrofurans due to the similar energies of competing 5-membered transition-state conformations. Herein, a new variant of this reaction has been developed in which a PdCl2/1,4-benz...

3-Methyl vinyl aziridine undergoes a mild MgI2-promoted S(N)2' ring opening and concomitant cyclization with fumarate Michael acceptors to give trisubstituted pyrrolidines. The process is efficient and highly diastereoselective. This methodology has been applied to a concise asymmetric synthesis of (+)-allo-kainic acid.
