Ready Access to the Echinopines Skeleton via Gold(I)-Catalyzed Alkoxycyclizations of Enynes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The [3,5,5,7] tetracyclic skeleton of echinopines has been stereoselectively accessed through a gold(I)-catalyzed alkoxycyclization of cyclopropyl-tethered 1,6-enynes. The key bicyclo[4.2.1]nonane core of the enyne precursors was readily assembled by means of a Co-catalyzed [6 + 2] cycloaddition. Furthermore, the attempted alkoxycyclization of 1,5-enyne substrates revealed an uncovered cyclopropyl rearrangement that gives rise to [3,6,5,7] tetracyclic structures.

Gold-Catalyzed Reactions via Cyclopropyl Gold Carbene-like Intermediates
Cycloisomerizations of 1,n-enynes catalyzed by gold(I) proceed via electrophilic species with a highly distorted cyclopropyl gold(I) carbene-like structure, which can react with different nucleophiles to form a wide variety of products by attack at the cyclopropane or the carbene carbons. Particularly important are reactions in which the gold(I) carbene reacts with alkenes to form cyclopropanes...
متن کاملPlatinum- and gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reactions of hydroxylated enynes.
Exposure of enynes containing a hydroxyl group at one of the propargylic positions to catalytic amounts of either PtCl2 or (PPh3)AuCl/AgSbF6 results in a selective rearrangement with formation of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-3-one derivatives. The same products are obtained by a "one-pot" process on treatment of an alkynal with allylchlorodimethylsilane (4) and PtCl2 via a reaction cascade involving an ...

The enantioselective asymmetric gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reactions of heteroatom tethered 1,6-enynes are conducted in the presence of a chiral cationic Au(i) catalyst ((R)-4-MeO-3,5-(t-Bu)(2)-MeOBIPHEP-(AuCl)(2)/AgOTf system) in toluene under mild conditions and lead to functionalized bicyclo[4.1.0]heptene derivatives in excellent enantiomeric excesses ranging from 90-98%.

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...
