Modular Access to Substituted Azocanes via a Rhodium-Catalyzed Cycloaddition–Fragmentation Strategy

چکیده
A short entry to substituted azocanes by a Rh-catalyzed cycloaddition-fragmentation process is described. Specifically, exposure of diverse N-cyclopropylacrylamides to phosphine-ligated cationic Rh(I) catalyst systems under a CO atmosphere enables the directed generation of rhodacyclopentanone intermediates. Subsequent insertion of the alkene component is followed by fragmentation to give the heterocyclic target. Stereochemical studies show, for the first time, that alkene insertion into rhodacyclopentanones can be reversible.

Triptycenediols by rhodium-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition.
An efficient, modular synthesis of triptycene derivatives is presented, in which the triptycene ring system is constructed from readily available anthraquinone and alkyne starting materials. A rhodium-catalyzed alkyne cyclotrimerization reaction serves as the key step in this new method for the preparation of these useful unnatural products.
متن کاملRhodium-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition of oximes and diynes to give pyridines.
Oximes and diynes undergo efficient cycloaddition in the presence of a catalytic amount of a cationic rhodium(I)/dppf complex (see scheme). Spontaneous dehydration of the initially formed cycloadducts leads to the formation of a variety of substituted pyridines in moderate to good yields. The transformation could also be achieved in a one-pot procedure using aldehydes.

The cyclohexenone core of welwitindolinones was synthesized by a Rh(I)-catalyzed [5 + 1]-cycloaddition of an allenylcyclopropane with CO. A pentasubstituted cyclopropane was prepared successfully by a Rh(II)-catalyzed intramolecular cyclopropanation of alkenes with chlorodiazoacetates.
متن کاملRhodium-catalyzed 1,3-acyloxy migration and subsequent intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of vinylallene and unactivated alkyne.
A Rh-catalyzed 1,3-acyloxy migration of propargyl ester followed by intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of vinylallene and unactivated alkyne was developed. This tandem reaction provides access to bicyclic compounds containing a highly functionalized isotoluene or cyclohexenone structural motif, while only aromatic compounds were observed in related transition metal-catalyzed cycloadditions.
متن کاملRhodium-catalyzed carbonylation of 3-acyloxy-1,4-enynes for the synthesis of cyclopentenones.
Functionalized cyclopentenones were synthesized by a Rh-catalyzed carbonylation of 3-acyloxy-1,4-enynes, derived from alkynes and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The reaction involved a Saucy-Marbet 1,3-acyloxy migration of propargyl esters and a [4 + 1] cycloaddition of the resulting acyloxy substituted vinylallene with CO.
