Control of regioselectivity in Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling-cyclization reaction of 2-(2',3'-allenyl)malonates with organic halides.

The regioselectivity in the Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling-cyclization of 2-(2',3'-allenyl)malonates with organic halides is determined by the steric and electronic effects of both substrates. By deliberate control of the reaction conditions, the regioselectivity of this reaction can be tuned. With conditions A and B, the reaction afforded vinylic cyclopropane derivatives, while with conditions C and D, the reaction afforded cyclopentene derivatives in a highly selective manner. Under similar conditions, 1-alkenyl halides tend to form more three-membered cyclic products. The increased steric hindrance at the 2'-position of the allene moiety and aryl halides favors the formation of five-membered cyclic products. The regioselectivity of the reaction may be explained by the comparison of the relative stabilities of syn- and anti-type pi-allyl palladium intermediates.

Thallium trinitrate mediated oxidation of 3-alkenols: ring contraction vs cyclization.

The reaction of a series of six-membered ring 3-alkenols with thallium trinitrate (TTN) in three different experimental conditions was studied. Either cyclization products or ring contraction products were obtained, depending on the structure of the substrate as well as the nature of the solvent. The reaction of a seven-membered ring 3-alkenol with TTN led to the ring contraction product exclusively.

Carbon-carbon bond formation in regio- and stereoselective palladium-catalyzed cyclization of allene-substituted conjugated dienes.

Regio- and stereoselective palladium-catalyzed reactions of allene-substituted 1,3-dienes 1 in acetic acid at room temperature lead to cyclization with formation of a carbon-carbon bond between the middle carbon of the allene and the terminal carbon of the 1,3-diene. Two different types of reactions, both that constitute 1,4-carboacetoxylations of the 1,3-diene, have been developed. In one of the reactions, Pd(II) catalyzes the oxidation of 1 to bicyclic compounds 2, and in the other, Pd(0) catalyzes the transformation of 1 to bicyclic compounds 3. The products 2 are useful for further synthetic transformations and undergo Diels-Alder reactions with dienophiles to give polycyclic ring systems.

Cyclization of electron-deficient cyclopentadienone with 2-alkenyl and 2-alkynylamines via sequential pericyclic reaction pathway.

The pericyclic reactions of 2,5-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-3,4-diphenylcyclopentadienone (1a) with both allylic and propargylic amines have been investigated. The reaction proceeded via initial formation of the 1,4 adducts followed by the ene cyclization and/or sequential pericyclic reactions depending upon the structures of the amines. The reaction of 1a with diallylamine (2a) gave the tetracyclic compound (3a). On the other hand, the reaction of 1a with 2-propynylamine (2c) gave exclusively the bicyclic compound (5c). In the reactions with the secondary 2-propynylamines (2d,e), the tetracyclic compounds (3d,e) were exclusively formed. The reactions of 1a with alpha-branched primary 1,1-dialkyl-2-propynylamines (2f,g) gave mixtures of 3- and 5-type compounds. The tetracyclic compounds 3 were formed from the intramolecular [4+2]pi cycloadditions of the [1,5]-sigmatropic rearrangement products of the 1,4 adducts of 1a and 2, followed by the [1,5]-sigmatropic rearrangement of hydrogen and dehydrogenation. The bicyclic compounds 5 were derived from the [2pi+2pi+2sigma] reaction of the 1,4 adducts of 1a and 2. The one-pot multistage sequential pericyclic reactions were discussed on the basis of the X-ray crystallographic structures and the MO calculation data.

Palladium(II)-catalyzed highly regio- and diastereoselective cyclization of difunctional allylic N-tosylcarbamates. A convenient synthesis of optically active 4-vinyl-2-oxazolidinones and total synthesis of 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-L-xylitol.

A Pd(II)-catalyzed cyclization of difunctional allylic N-tosyl carbamates in the presence of halide ions was developed with high regio- and diastereoselectivity. The reaction involves aminopalladation of alkene and beta-heteroatom elimination to regenerate Pd(II) species. When the readily available homochiral alcohols were used as substrates, highly optically active 4-vinyl-2-oxazolidinones were easily obtained. The utility of this method was exemplified by the convenient synthesis of 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-L-xylitol.

A new methodology for synthesis of a chiral phosphinocarboxylic acid through Michael cyclization-aldol tandem reaction of chiral alpha,beta,chi,psi-unsaturated bisphosphine oxide and application in palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation.

Upon successive treatment with lithium diisopropylamide and then benzaldehyde, a chiral alpha,beta,psi,omega-unsaturated bisphosphine oxide underwent Michael cyclization-aldol tandem reaction to afford the corresponding endo-alpha,beta-unsaturated cyclic bisphosphine oxides. Sequential stereoselective reduction and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination gave the corresponding monophosphine oxide. Oxidative conversion of an olefin moiety into a carboxyl group and subsequent deoxygenation of an oxide gave the corresponding chiral phosphinocarboxylic acid, which was successfully applied as a chiral and functionalized monophosphine ligand in a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation.

Synthesis of beta- and gamma-carbolines by the palladium/copper-catalyzed coupling and cyclization of terminal acetylenes.

A variety of 3-substituted beta- and gamma-carbolines have been synthesized from N-substituted 3-iodoindole-2-carboxaldehydes and 2-bromoindole-3-carboxaldehydes, respectively. The coupling of these aldehydes with various terminal acetylenes with PdCl(2)(PPh(3))(2)/CuI as the catalyst readily affords the corresponding alkynylindole carboxaldehydes, which have subsequently been converted to the corresponding tert-butylimines and cyclized to beta- and gamma-carbolines by either copper-catalyzed or thermal processes.

Connective synthesis of polysubstituted tetrahydropyrans by a novel and stereocontrolled metallo-ene/Intramolecular Sakurai Cyclization sequence.

A novel methodology based upon the allylmetalation step followed by an Intramolecular Sakurai Cyclization (IMSC) provides an efficient access to a variety of tetrahydropyran derivatives. This new strategy nicely complements our initial protocol that embodied a tandem ene reaction/IMSC sequence. Both mono- and dihydroxy-tetrahydropyrans could be easily assembled with complete stereocontrol at the various chiral centers.

Stannous chloride-mediated reductive cyclization-rearrangement of nitroarenyl ketones.

Cyclization products are produced in excellent yields from using standard reaction conditions for nitroarene reduction to aminoarene with SnCl2. Thus, 4-methyl-2-(2-nitrobenzyl)-2H-1,4-benzothiazin-3(4H)-one (2b) upon treatment with SnCl2 in ethanol did not produce the expected aniline derivative. Instead, 6-methyl-11a, 12-dihydro-6H-quino[3,2-b][1,4]benzothiazine (3) was produced in excellent yield, presumably via novel Sn (IV)-mediated amidine formation from the initial aniline reduction product. Under identical reaction conditions, 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-thiochroman-4-one (6) produces ethyl 5,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,e][1,4]thiazepin-11-ylacetate (7). A novel semipinacol rearrangement is proposed to account for this extensive skeletal rearrangement. Aniline derivative (14) (from 6 treated with FeSO4.7H2O) forms 12-ethoxy-11,12-dihydro-6H-6,12-methanodibenzo[b,f][1,5]thiazocine (15) upon treatment with SnCl2 in ethanol. Thiophene analogues of 6 and 14 (18 and 19, respectively) react similarly, forming the analogous thiazepine (20) and cyclic N,O-acetals (21), respectively.

Synthesis of 3-substituted 4-aroylisoquinolines via Pd-catalyzed carbonylative cyclization of 2-(1-alkynyl)benzaldimines.

A number of 3-substituted 4-aroylisoquinolines have been prepared in good yields by treating N-tert-butyl-2-(1-alkynyl)benzaldimines with aryl halides in the presence of CO and a palladium catalyst. Synthetically the methodology provides a simple and convenient route to isoquinolines containing an aryl, alkyl, or vinylic group at C-3 and an aroyl group at C-4 of the isoquinoline ring. The reaction is believed to proceed via cyclization of the alkyne containing a proximate nucleophilic center promoted by an acylpalladium complex.

Carbopalladation of nitriles: synthesis of benzocyclic ketones and cyclopentenones via Pd-catalyzed cyclization of omega-(2-iodoaryl)alkanenitriles and related compounds.

An efficient procedure for the synthesis of 2,2-disubstituted benzocyclic ketones by intramolecular carbopalladation of nitriles has been developed. The cyclization of substituted 3-(2-iodoaryl)propanenitriles affords indanones in high yields. The reaction is compatible with a wide variety of functional groups. This methodology has been extended to the synthesis of tetralones and cyclopentenones.

Facile intramolecular cyclization in oxidative coupling of acetylenes linked to 1,3-positions of benzene: strained [12]metacyclophanedienetetrayne system.

Oxidative coupling of ethynylpropellane linked to 1,3,5-position of a benzene core 3b did not give the cage dimer 2 but the dimer 4 having a strained [12]metacyclophanedienetetrayne system. The spectral and structural features of the novel ring system were revealed for the simple dibenzo derivative 6, which was also prepared efficiently by the intramolecular cyclization of the open-chain precursor.

Convenient synthesis of 2-benzazepines via radical cyclization.

Synthesis of 2-benzazepines was readily achieved via 7-endo radical cyclization of N-o-bromobenzylitaconamides or N-o-bromobenzylmethacrylamides which were prepared in two steps from commercially available benzaldehydes, amines, and alpha,beta-unsaturated acids.
