The arene–alkene photocycloaddition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the presence of an alkene, three different modes of photocycloaddition with benzene derivatives can occur; the [2 + 2] or ortho, the [3 + 2] or meta, and the [4 + 2] or para photocycloaddition. This short review aims to demonstrate the synthetic power of these photocycloadditions.

Unprecedented influence of remote substituents on reactivity and stereoselectivity in Cu(I)-catalysed [2 + 2] photocycloaddition. An approach towards the synthesis of tricycloclavulone.
Cu(I)-catalysed [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of 1,6-dienes embedded in a furano sugar is described in connection to a synthetic approach to an abnormal marine prostanoid tricycloclavulone. An unprecedented influence of remote substituents on the reactivity and stereoselectivity of the photocycloaddition reaction has been uncovered during this investigation. While an alkene substituent inhibits cy...
متن کاملAn approach to the core skeleton of lancifodilactone F.
Two cycloaddition reactions were utilized for the construction of the 5,6,7-tricyclic skeleton of lancifodilactone F and buxapentalactone. A [2+2] ketene cycloaddition reaction was first used to set their adjacent all-carbon quaternary centers at the 5,6-ring junction. An arene-olefin meta-photocycloaddition reaction was then used to install the 6- and 7-membered rings concurrently.

An investigation of the intramolecular cyclopropanation reactions of α-diazo-β-ketonitriles is reported. These studies reveal that α-diazo-β-ketonitriles exhibit unique reactivity in their ability to undergo arene cyclopropanation reactions; other similar acceptor-acceptor-substituted diazo substrates instead produce mixtures of C-H insertion and dimerization products. α-Diazo-β-ketonitriles al...
متن کاملConstruction of the 5,6,7-tricyclic skeleton of lancifodilactone F.
We report herein the synthesis of a fully functionalized B,C,D-ring system of lancifodilactone F. The key transformations involve an arene-olefin meta-photocycloaddition reaction and a palladium-catalyzed oxidative C-C cleavage reaction to establish its B,C-rings.
متن کاملDe Novo Synthesis of Multisubstituted Aryl Amines Using Alkene Cross Metathesis
The olefin cross-metathesis reaction allows rapid access to 1,5-dicarbonyl intermediates which, upon treatment with a primary or secondary amine, allow the synthesis of a range of multisubstituted carbocyclic aryl amines. This de novo arene synthesis yields nonclassical substitution patterns in a regioselective and predictable approach that is compatible with several functional groups.
