Asymmetric Au-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 1,6-enynes: An entry to bicyclo[4.1.0]heptene
نویسندگان
چکیده
A comprehensive study on the asymmetric gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction of heteroatom tethered 1,6-enynes is described. The cycloisomerization reactions were conducted in the presence of the chiral cationic Au(I) catalyst consisting of (R)-4-MeO-3,5-(t-Bu)(2)-MeOBIPHEP-(AuCl)(2) complex and silver salts (AgOTf or AgNTf(2)) in toluene under mild conditions to afford functionalized bicyclo[4.1.0]heptene derivatives. The reaction conditions were found to be highly substrate-dependent, the best results being obtained in the case of oxygen-tethered enynes. The formation of bicyclic derivatives, including cyclopropyl pentasubstituted ones, was reported in moderate to good yields and in enantiomeric excesses up to 99%.

Recently, the transition metal-catalyzed cycloisomerization has attracted much attention, because it can provide useful cyclic compounds from readily available starting materials and produce different cyclic compounds from the same substrate, depending on the catalyst and reaction conditions. One of the most studied substrates are 1,6-enynes. The transition metalcatalyzed cycloisomerization of ...
متن کاملPalladium-catalyzed oxidative 6-exo-trig cyclization of 1,6-enynes: facile synthesis of bicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-5-ones.
We here describe a new palladium-catalyzed oxidative 6-exo-trig cyclization of 1,6-enynes at room temperature using tBuONO as an oxidant for the synthesis of 3-bicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-5-ones. This cascade strategy involves the hydration, cyclization and cyclopropanation sequence, and represents a new transition-metal-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of 1,6-enynes in a 6-exo-trig fashion.

متن کاملCatalytic isomerization of 1,5-enynes to bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenes.
The cycloisomerization of 1,5-enynes catalyzed by cationic triphenylphosphinegold(I) complexes produces bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenes. Substitution at all positions of the 1,5-enyne is tolerated, leading to a wide range of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane structures, including those containing quaternary carbons. Substrates containing a 1,2-disubstituted olefin undergo stereospecific cycloisomerization (cis-olefin...
