Regiochemical control in intramolecular cyclization of methylene-interrupted epoxydiols.

[reaction: see text] Methylene-interrupted epoxydiols have multiple regiochemical routes for cyclization. The 5-exo process is the most prevalent under acidic conditions. However, the regioselectivity can be controlled by the appropriate choice of acid promoter and pendant groups adjacent to the epoxide. The 5-exo product is obtained exclusively without the presence of a carbocation-stabilizing pendant group. Alkenyl and thiophenyl groups adjacent to the epoxide alter the regioselectivity and enable access to the 5-endo tetrahydrofuran and 6-endo tetrahydropyran products.

Construction of tetrahydrofuran-3-ones from readily available organochalcogen precursors via radical carbonylation/reductive cyclization.

[reaction: see text] beta-Hydroxyalkyl aryl chalcogenides, readily available by regioselective ring-opening of epoxides with nucleophilic benzeneselenolate or tellurolate, were O-alkylated by treatment with ethyl propiolate or (E)-1,2-bis(phenylsulfonyl)ethylene. Subsequent carbonylation/reductive cyclization in the presence of AIBN/TTMSS and carbon monoxide (80 atm) afforded tetrahydrofuran-3-ones in moderate to good yields.

Gold(III) chloride catalyzed cyclization of alpha-hydroxyallenes to 2,5-dihydrofurans.

[reaction: see text] Functionalized alpha-hydroxyallenes 1 were smoothly converted into the corresponding 2,5-dihydrofurans 2 by using 5-10 mol % of gold(III) chloride as catalyst. This mild and efficient cyclization method can be applied to alkyl- and alkenyl-substituted allenes at room temperature, furnishing tri- and tetrasubstituted dihydrofurans in good to excellent chemical yields and with complete axis to center chirality transfer.

Diverse cyclization catalyzed by In(OTf)3 for the convergent assembly of substituted tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans.

[reaction: see text]. A novel In(OTf)3-catalyzed (3,5) oxonium-ene type cyclization for the facile construction of various multisubstituted tetrahydrofurans and tetrahydropyrans was successfully developed. Further mechanistic investigations unveiled an In(OTf)3-catalyzed skeletal reorganization of the tetrahydrofuran to its thermodynamic isomer under thermal conditions.

Construction of substituted cyclohexanones by reductive cyclization of 7-oxo-2,8-alkadienyl esters.

[reaction: see text] Cyclization of 7-oxo-2,8-alkadienyl esters upon reaction with triphenylphosphinecopper hydride hexamer stereoselectively yields substituted cyclohexanones having a cis relationship of carbon side chains at C2 and C3. This cyclohexanone construction is particularly useful for preparing 4-alkoxy- or 4-siloxy-2,3-disubstituted cyclohexanones, in which instance stereoselection is > or = 20:1.

Highly selective entry to the azadirachtin skeleton via a Claisen rearrangement/radical cyclization sequence.

[formula: see text] A highly diastereoselective, microwave-induced Claisen rearrangement of an appropriately substituted propargylic enol ether allows the formation of the sterically congested C8-C14 bond of azadirachtin. When combined with a radical-mediated cyclization of the corresponding allene, this sequence offers rapid entry to the framework of azadirachtin.

Novel phosphine-catalyzed zipper cyclization of aliphatic diyne-dione and yne-dione systems.

[reaction: see text] An unexpected tri-n-butylphosphine-catalyzed zipper cyclization of diyne[bond]diones (1a-d) or yne-diones (1e and 1f) is described. Bicyclic ketones (2a, 2b, 2c, 2e, and 2f) with five- or six-membered rings fused to the five-membered ring were obtained from both aliphatic diyne-diones (1a-c) and yne-diones (1e and 1f) having tetra- or pentamethylene spacers. The bicyclic products (2) were produced with high diastereoselectivity.

Indium trichloride mediated intramolecular Prins-type cyclization.

[reaction: see text] Intramolecular Prins-type reactions of compounds having both functionalities of homoallyl alcohol and acetal moiety are described. The intramolecular Prins cyclizations were performed using indium trichloride in chloroform or 25% aqueous THF. Both 9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane and 3,9-dioxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane compounds were successfully obtained in moderate yields.

Oxidative cyclization of amino alcohols catalyzed by a CpIr complex. Synthesis of indoles, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines, and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1-benzazepine.

[reaction: see text] A new iridium-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of amino alcohols has been revealed. Indole derivatives are synthesized in good to excellent yields from 2-aminophenethyl alcohols by means of a [CpIrCl(2)](2)/K(2)CO(3) catalytic system. The present catalytic system is also effective for syntheses of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines from 3-(2-aminophenyl)propanols and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1-benzazepine from 4-(2-aminophenyl)butanol.

W(CO)5-amine catalyzed exo- and endo-selective cyclizations of omega-alkynyl silyl enol ethers: a highly useful method for the construction of polycyclic compounds.

[reaction: see text] A highly useful method for the construction of polycyclic compounds based on the amine-controlled exo- and endo-selective cyclizations of omega-alkynyl silyl enol ethers catalyzed by W(CO)5L is reported. When bis-alkynyl silyl enol ethers were treated with a catalytic amount of W(CO)6, DABCO, and water under photoirradiation, synthetically useful tricyclic ketones were obtained in good yield.
