Influence of Michael acceptor stereochemistry on intramolecular Morita-Baylis-Hillman reactions.

چکیده
[reaction: see text] A study of the effect of Michael acceptor stereochemistry on the efficiency of intramolecular Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reactions has been performed. The reactions were catalyzed by a phosphine, and the reaction substrates studied were enones containing a pendant aldehyde moiety attached at the beta-position of the alkene group. In all cases examined with PPh3 as the catalyst, cyclization substrates possessing (Z)-alkene stereochemistry afforded a much higher yield of the desired product than did the E isomeric substrates under identical reaction conditions. This was also true when a polymer-supported phosphine catalyst was used. While both alkene isomers afforded the same product, in parallel reactions, the Z isomer afforded 2.5-8.5 times higher yield than did the corresponding E isomer. It is proposed that steric effects are a possible source of this dramatic difference in reactivity. Substrates where the beta-substituent is cis to the electron-withdrawing substituent are relatively more accessible to react with the nucleophile catalyst than are their trans counterparts. These findings are expected to be useful in the design of synthetic intermediates, as intramolecular MBH reactions are being increasingly used in the preparation of complex synthetic targets.

Conscious of the importance that stereochemical issues may have on the design of efficient organocatalyts for both Morita-Baylis-Hillman and aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction we have analyzed them in this minireview. The so-called standard reactions involve "naked" enolates which therefore should lead to the syn adducts as the major products, irrespective of the E, Z stereochemistry of the eno...

This work demonstrates that, in accord with metal catalysis, ferrocene could be an excellent scaffold for organocatalysts. The simple and easily accessible bifunctional ferrocene-based squaramide-phosphine shows high enantioselectivity in the intramolecular Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction of 7-aryl-7-oxo-5-heptenals, giving a variety of 2-aroyl-2-cyclohexenols in up to 96% ee.

Intramolecular conjugate displacement (ICD), the process illustrated in , has been applied to the Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts formed from (5S)-5-(l-menthyloxy)-2(5H)-furanone and aldehydes that are substituted in the γ- or δ-position by geminal phenylthio groups. When the initial Morita-Baylis-Hillman alcohols are acetylated and oxidized to geminal sulfones, deprotonation causes ring closure ...
