چکیده

Two catalysts, Me(2)AlNTf(2) and MeAl(NTf(2))(2), derived from the mixing of trimethylaluminum with triflimide, proved to be highly effective catalysts in hindered Diels-Alder reactions, generating the desired Diels-Alder cycloadducts from both hindered 2-silyloxydienes and hindered dienophiles. Thus reaction of 1 with 2 afforded the hindered cycloadduct 4 in excellent yield in 0.5-1.5 h at -40 °C.

Triflimide activation of a chiral oxazaborolidine leads to a more general catalytic system for enantioselective Diels-Alder addition.

The strong acid triflimide ((CF3SO2)2NH) protonates chiral oxazaborolidines to form superactive, stable, chiral Lewis acids which are highly effective catalysts for a wide variety of enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions, documented herein by more than 20 examples.

Studies toward the enantiospecific total synthesis of rhodexin A.

Studies toward the enantiospecific total synthesis of rhodexin A via a very hindered inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction are described. The C8-diastereomer of the fully elaborated tetracyclic core of rhodexin A, 23, was prepared in good yield and excellent selectivity using as the key step the stepwise Diels-Alder reaction of the very hindered dienone 3 and the silyl enol ether 4 catal...

Synthesis of highly substituted cyclohexenes via mixed Lewis acid-catalyzed Diels-Alder reactions of highly substituted dienes and dienophiles.

[reaction: see text] A high-yielding method is described for the rapid synthesis of very hindered cyclohexenes by the Diels-Alder reaction of hindered silyloxy dienes and dienophiles using the mixed Lewis acid catalyst system (AlBr(3)/AlMe(3)). Thus, reaction of the hindered diene 4 with various substituted enones gave good yields of the expected cycloadducts even though both partners are quite...

Stepwise acid-promoted double-Michael process: an alternative to Diels-Alder cycloadditions for hindered silyloxydiene-dienophile pairs.

The hindered diene 1 reacts with 3-methylcyclohexenone 6 catalyzed by triflimide to produce the Mukaiyama Michael product 7 (low-temperature quenching) or the [4+2] cycloadduct 8 (quenching at 0 degrees C). Reaction of the hindered diene 23 with 2-methylcyclohexenone 12 with 5:1 AlBr3:AlMe3 afforded a 71% yield of a 1.9:1 mixture of two cycloadducts. Hydrolysis of the major isomer gave the dion...

Thiourea-catalyzed Diels–Alder reaction of a naphthoquinone monoketal dienophile

A variety of organocatalysts were screened for the catalysis of the naphthoquinone monoketal Diels-Alder reaction. In this study we found that Schreiner's thiourea catalyst 10 and Jacobson's thiourea catalyst 12 facilitate the cycloaddition of the sterically hindered naphthoquinone monoketal dienophile 3 with diene 4. The use of thiourea catalysis allowed for the first time the highly selective...
