SmI2-mediated radical cyclizations directed by a C-Si bond.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of a silicon stereocontrol element in cyclobutanol and cyclopentanol-forming cyclizations mediated by SmI(2) results in excellent diastereocontrol. The C-Si bond in the products of cyclization provides a versatile handle for further manipulation. An asymmetric route to cyclization substrates involving copper-catalyzed silyl transfer has also been developed.

On the Role of Pre- and Post-Electron-Transfer Steps in the SmI2/Amine/H2O-Mediated Reduction of Esters: New Mechanistic Insights and Kinetic Studies
The mechanism of the SmI2 -mediated reduction of unactivated esters has been studied using a combination of kinetic, radical clocks and reactivity experiments. The kinetic data indicate that all reaction components (SmI2 , amine, H2 O) are involved in the rate equation and that electron transfer is facilitated by Brønsted base assisted deprotonation of water in the transition state. The use of ...
متن کاملProton-coupled electron transfer in the reduction of carbonyls using SmI2-H2O: implications for the reductive coupling of acyl-type ketyl radicals with SmI2-H2O.
Samarium diiodide-water (SmI2-H2O) reagents have emerged as some of the most practical systems enabling reduction and reductive cyclizations of ketyl radicals. Recently, this reaction manifold has been extended to acyl-type radicals generated from cyclic polar carboxylic acid derivatives. However, the relationship between the fundamental electron- and proton-transfer steps in the generation of ...
متن کاملNew samarium diiodide-induced cyclizations*
Samarium diiodide (SmI2) smoothly promotes the cyclizations of suitably substituted carbonyl compounds with styrene subunits leading to benzannulated cyclooctenes. The intramolecular samarium ketyl addition to arene or hetarene moieties enables a new, efficient, and highly stereoselective entry to dearomatized products such as hexahydronaphthalenes, steroid-like tetraor pentacyclic compounds, o...
متن کاملSelective Reduction of Barbituric Acids Using SmI2/H2O: Synthesis, Reactivity, and Structural Analysis of Tetrahedral Adducts**
Since the 1864 landmark discovery by Adolf von Baeyer, barbituric acids have played a prominent role in medicine and organic synthesis. The barbituric acid scaffold occurs in more than 5000 pharmacologically active compounds, including commonly used anticonvulsant, hypnotic, and anticancer agents (Figure 1a). Moreover, as an easily accessible feedstock material, it is an extremely useful buildi...
متن کاملControl of Diastereoselectivity in C=O/C=N Reductive Cyclizations Using an Intramolecularly Tethered Hydrazone
Cyclic hydrazones are efficient ketyl radical acceptors in reductive coupling cyclizations mediated by samarium diiodide, affording cyclic amino alcohols with controlled stereochemistry at the new aminated stereocenter. This approach has been successfully applied to the stereoselective synthesis of a fully functionalized trehazolin cyclitol starting from D-glucose, where the required cyclic hyd...
