Selective Phosphorylation of α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds

Abstract

Elaboration of effective methods of selective phosphorylation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds containing simultaneously C[dbnd]C and C[dbnd]O bonds, which may compete with each other or react consistently one after another, is one of the most complex problems in the modern organophosphorus synthesis. On the basis of our previous systematic investigations of kinetics and mechanism of the Pudovik and Abramov reactions in the series of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds we have suggested three possible ways to solve this problem: a) soft reaction conditions, regulated by solvent, catalyst and temperature; b) interface catalysis; c) metallocomlex catalysis (reaction in the coordination sphere of transition metal).     

The Reaction of N-Phenyliminoketenylidenetriphenyl-phosphorane with α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds. Synthesis of New Pyran Derivatives

Abstract

The reaction of N-phenyliminoketenylidenetriphenylphosphorane [a] (1), with 2-benzylidene-1, 3-indandione (2), 1,2-diphenyl-3,4-pyrazolidenedione (3)and/or 5-benzylidene barbituric acid (4) has been investigated. When ylide 1 was allowed to react with compounds 2, 3 or 4 in THF at ambient temp. the corresponding new pyrano-phosphoranylidenes 5, 6 or 7 were obtained. The elemental microanalyses, IR, ¹H NMR, ³¹P NMR and MS data agree with the structure of the cyclic iminophosphoranes by [4+2]-cycloaddition and exclude 4-membered ring structure by [2+2]-cycloaddition. When the Wittig reaction was carried on the pyrano-phosphoranes 5, 6 or 7 using p-nitrobenzaldehyde, the exocyclic olefins together with triphenylphosphine oxide were isolated.     

α,β-Unsaturated Derivatives of Trivalent Phosphorus in Reactions with Activated Carbonyl Compounds

Abstract

Dialkyl alkynylphosphonites (I) react with esters and nitriles of α-oxocarboxylic acids to give phosphorylated alkanoates, 1,3,2-dioxaphospholanes and l-phosphabicyclohept-4-enes, depending on the nature of the reagent and conditions of the reaction. The reaction of dialkyl alkenylphosphonites (II) with esters and nitriles of α-oxocarboxylic acids predominantly leads to dioxaphospholane derivatives.

An Improved Procedure for the Conversion of Carbonyl Compounds to α,β-Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids

The two carbon homologation of aldehydes and ketones to give α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids is often carried out via the corresponding ester using metallated phosphonate reagents² (1) (Equation I). When alkyl esters (la) are employed problems are sometimes encountered in the hydrolysis step due to acid or base sensitivity but these problems can be overcome using the silyl ester (lb)³.     

Diastereoselective Synthesis of Monofluorocyclohexenes through Photocatalyzed Cascade Cyclization of gem-Difluoroalkenes and α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds

Monofluoroalkenes are nonhydrolyzable mimetics of amides. Previous work focused on the synthesis of non-cyclic monofluoroalkenes. However, diastereoselective synthesis of monofluorocyclohexenes from non-cyclic substrates is challenging. Herein, we report the first photocatalyzed cascade cyclization reactions of readily available α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and gem-difluoroalkenes for the synthesis of highly functionalized monofluorocyclohexenes. The reaction shows broad substrate scope with high diastereoselectivity (>30 examples, up to 86 % yield, >20 : 1 dr). The post-reaction transformations of the products demonstrate the synthetic potential of this methodology.

Elementary Reactions of Metal Alkyl in Anionic Polymerization. III. Reaction Mode of n-Butylmagnesium Bromide with α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds∗

Reaction modes of n-butylmagnesium bromide with α,β-unsaturated esters, ketones, and nitriles were investigated in ether under anionic polymerization conditions. n-Butane and conjugate addition products observed were with all the monomers examined, but carbonyl addition products were not detected except with the unsaturated esters. Product distribution depends mainly upon reaction temperature and the concentration of the Grignard reagent, not upon the concentration of the unsaturated compounds. n-Butyl-magnesium bromide etherate in toluene gave similar results.
