Reaction of dialkyl carbonates with alcohols: Defining a scale of the best leaving and entering groups*
نویسندگان
چکیده
A series of dialkyl and methyl alkyl carbonates has been synthesized and their reactivity investigated. The behavior of preferential leaving and entering groups for the newly synthesized carbonates has been accurately investigated. Both experimental and computational studies agreed that the scale of leaving groups follows the trend: PhCH2O –, MeO– ≥ EtO–, CH3(CH2)2O –, CH3(CH2)7O – > (CH3)2CHO – > (CH3)3CO –. Accordingly, the scale of the entering group has the same trend, with t-butoxide being the worst entering group. A preliminary attempt to rationalize the nucleofugality trends, limited to the (CH3)3CO – and CH3O – groups, has indicated that a likely origin of the observed trends lies in the different entropic contributions and solvation effects.

P-Silylated N,N-dialkyl amines (5) were easily synthesized in good to excellent yield from aldehydes (1), trimethylsilyldialkylamines (2), and trimethylsilylmethylmagnesium chloride (4) in the presence of 5 M lithium perchlorate solution in diethyl ether. The reaction Of (2) with aldehyde proceeded smoothly in the LiCI0 , to give the imimum salt (3). Addition of trimethylsilylmethylrnagnes...

[reaction: see text] Enamine [2 + 2] cycloadditions can be achieved in useful yields simply by stirring a mixture of an aldehyde, diethylamine, a dialkyl fumarate, and potassium carbonate in acetonitrile at 25 degrees C, conditions that are compatible with the presence of a potential leaving group on the beta-position of the intermediate enamine. Methylation and elimination of the product cyclo...

An efficient three-component reaction of dialkyl acetylendicarboxylates and 2-Pyrrolidin in the presence of triphenylphosphine produces dialkyl 2-(2-Pyrrolidin-N-yl)-3-(triphenylphosphanylidene)succinate. These phosphoranes undergo mild intramolecular Wittig reaction to produce dialkyl (E)-2-(4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrrol-2-yl)fumarate in excellent yields.
