Enantiospecific Alkynylation of Alkylboronic Esters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Enantioenriched secondary and tertiary alkyl pinacolboronic esters undergo enantiospecific deborylative alkynylation through a Zweifel-type alkenylation followed by a 1,2-elimination reaction. The process involves use of α-lithio vinyl bromide or vinyl carbamate species, for which application to Zweifel-type reactions has not previously been explored. The resulting functionalized 1,1-disubstituted alkenes undergo facile base-mediated elimination to generate terminal alkyne products in high yield and excellent levels of enantiospecificity over a wide range of pinacolboronic ester substrates. Furthermore, along with terminal alkynes, internal and silyl-protected alkynes can be formed by simply introducing a suitable carbon- or silicon-based electrophile after the base-mediated 1,2-elimination reaction.

3-Chloro-1-lithiopropene, a Functional Organolithium Reagent, and Its Reactions with Alkylboronates To Give 3-Alkylprop-1-en-3-ols
The reagent 3-chloro-1-lithiopropene (4) can be generated by treating 1-bromo-3-chloropropene with t-BuLi. It is unstable but if generated at low temperature in the presence of alkylboronic esters, such as 3, is trapped in situ to give rearrangement products 2, which on oxidation give 3-alkylprop-1-en-3-ols in good yields. The reaction works for primary, secondary, benzylic, and even tertiary a...

Alkynyl Moiety for Triggering 1,2‐Metallate Shifts: Enantiospecific sp2–sp3 Coupling of Boronic Esters with p‐Arylacetylenes
The enantiospecific coupling of secondary and tertiary boronic esters to aromatics has been investigated. Using p-lithiated phenylacetylenes and a range of boronic esters coupling has been achieved by the addition of N-bromosuccinimide (NBS). The alkyne functionality of the intermediate boronate complex reacts with NBS triggering the 1,2-migration of the group on boron to carbon giving a dearom...
