2-Stannyl-1, 3-dithiane Herstellung,Sn/Li-Transmetallierung und Verwendung für Cyclisierungen

2-Stannyl-1,3-dithianes. Preparation, Sn/Li-Transmetallation, and Use for Cyclizations In order to test the possibility of generating nucleophilic 2-lithio-1, 3-dithiane centers in the presence of electrophilic groups in the same molecule, the stannylated dithianes 1 - 3 were prepared or generated. Solutions of the lithio derivatives 2a and 2b could either be obtained by metallation of 1 with lithiumdiisopropylamide (LDA) or by transmetallation of 3 with alkyllithium reagents. Alkylations of 2 led to the alkyl-stannyl-dithianes 4 - 7 . Additions of the trimethylstannylated lithiodithiane 2a to aldehydes and ketones at low temperature led - after hydrolysis - to the adduct alcohols 8 ; warming up to room temperature before hydrolysis furnished keten thioacetals 9 only with acetone (→ 9b ) and cyclohexanone (→ 9c ) as carbonyl component, while still the simple adducts 8a and 8d were isolated with benzaldehyde and cyclohexenone, respectively. Methyl benzoate and benzoic acid anhydride reacted with 2a to produce the tin-free derivatives 12 and 14 , respectively. It is shown that the Sn/Li-exchange at the 2-position of dithianes 4 - 7 , 15 and 16 takes place within minutes at ?78°, whereas H/Li-metallation does not occur at all at this temperature. In situ preparation of the cyclization products 17 - 19 from halo-epoxides is described. The overall yields of Sn/Li-exchange ( 3 → 2 ), epoxyalkylation ( 2 → 15 and 16 , repectively), Sn/Li-exchange in 15 and 16 , cyclization (→ 17 – 19 ) are twice as high (up to 80%) with the tributylin than with the trimethyltin derivatives. The intramolecular 1, 3 nucleophilic reaction 20a → 17 is complete within 5 min at ?78°. The total yields of cyclization products by the tin route ( 3b → 16 → 20b → 18 + 19 ) and by direct metallation (1, 3-dithiane → 21b → 20b → 18 + 19 ) are 63 and 30%, respectively.     

Thermal C1-C5 diradical cyclization of enediynes

Computational studies at the BLYP/6-31G(d) level (supplemented by BCCD(T)/cc-pVDZ calculations) suggest that in aryl-substituted 1,2-diethynylbenzenes, steric effects disfavor the thermal C1-C6 diradical cyclization reaction (Bergman) and electronic effects favor the regiovariant C1-C5 cyclization to the extent that the C1-C5 process should become an important reaction pathway in the thermolyses of such compounds. Experimentally, thermolyses of 1,2-bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenylethynyl)benzene, a particularly favorable case, yields only products derived from C1-C5 cyclization [specifically, 1-(2,4,6-trichlorobenzylidene)-2-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-1H-indene and its hydrogenation product 3-(2,4,6-trichlorobenzyl)-2-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-1H-indene], and even for the parent hydrocarbon 1,2-bis(phenylethynyl)benzene, the formation of C1-C5 cyclization products is competitive with the major Bergman reaction. Although some C1-C5 cyclization products are probably formed by transfer hydrogenation from 1,4-cyclohexadiene (commonly included in such reactions), thermolyses in the absence of 1,4-CHD as well as deuterium labeling studies confirm the existence of direct C1-C5 diradical cyclizations for diaryl-substituted enediynes.     

Synthesis of meso-substituted chlorins via tetrahydrobilene-a intermediates.

Chlorin building blocks incorporating a geminal dimethyl group in the reduced ring and synthetic handles in specific patterns at the perimeter of the macrocycle are expected to have utility in biomimetic and materials chemistry. A prior route employed condensation of a dihydrodipyrrin (Western half) and a bromodipyrromethane-monocarbinol (Eastern half), followed by oxidative cyclization of the putative dihydrobilene-a to form the meso-substituted zinc chlorin in yields of approximately 10%. The limited stability of the dihydrodipyrrin precluded study of the chlorin-forming process. We now have refined this methodology. A tetrahydrodipyrrin Western half (2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,3,3-trimethyldipyrrin) has been synthesized and found to be quite stable. The condensation of the Western half and an Eastern half (100 mM each) proceeded smoothly in CH(3)CN containing 100 mM TFA at room temperature for 30 min. The resulting linear tetrapyrrole, a 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobilene-a, also is quite stable, enabling study of the conversion to chlorin. Refined conditions for the oxidative cyclization were found to include the following: the tetrahydrobilene-a (10 mM), AgTf (3-5 molar equiv), Zn(OAc)(2) (15 molar equiv), and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (15 molar equiv) in CH(3)CN at reflux exposed to air for 4-6 h, affording the zinc chlorin. The chlorin-forming process could be implemented in either a two-flask process or a one-flask process. The two-flask process was applied to form six zinc chlorins bearing substituents such as pentafluorophenyl, 3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl, TMS-ethyl benzoate, iodophenyl, or ethynylphenyl (deprotection of the TMS-ethynyl group occurred during the oxidative cyclization process). The stepwise yields (isolated) for the condensation and oxidative cyclization processes forming the tetrahydrobilene and zinc chlorin were 32-72% and 27-62%, respectively, giving overall yields of zinc chlorin from the Eastern and Western halves of 12-45%. Taken together, the refinements introduced enable 100-mg quantities of chlorin building blocks to be prepared in a facile and rational manner.     

Synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans by platinum-olefin-catalyzed carboalkoxylation of o-alkynylphenyl acetals

The PtCl2-catalyzed cyclization reaction of o-alkynylphenyl acetals 1 in the presence of 1,5-cyclooctadiene produces 3-(alpha-alkoxyalkyl)benzofurans 2 in good to high yields. For example, the reaction of acetaldehyde ethyl 2-(1-octynyl)phenyl acetal (1a), acetaldehyde ethyl 2-(cyclohexylethynyl)phenyl acetal (1c), and acetaldehyde ethyl 2-(phenylethynyl)phenyl acetal (1f) in the presence of 2 mol % of platinum(II) chloride and 8 mol % of 1,5-cyclooctadiene in toluene at 30 degrees C gave the corresponding 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans 2a, 2c, and 2f in 91, 94, and 88% yields, respectively.     

Enantioselective synthesis of N1999A2

An enantioselective synthetic route to the enediyne antibiotic N1999A2 (1) is described, proceeding in 21 steps (0.4% yield, 77% average yield per step) from (R)-(+)-glycidol. The route involves the convergent assembly of three components: a (1-iodovinyl) stannane (2), a 1,5-hexadiyne-3,4-diol derivative (3), and a substituted naphthoic acid (4). Important transformations in the synthetic sequence include the palladium-catalyzed coupling of 2 and 3, an intramolecular oxidative cyclization of a terminal bisacetylene, and a transannular anionic (bi)cyclization of a cyclic bromoenetriyne. The careful selection and manipulation of protective groups throughout the sequence proved to be critical to the development of the synthetic route, where all late-stage intermediates were unstable and could not be concentrated. In the final step of the sequence, three protective groups were removed in a single operation, providing synthetic N1999A2 (1) in 76% yield. Conditions were found that, for the first time, led to the precipitation of 1 as a solid.

Total synthesis of oxidized phospholipids. 3. The (11E)-9-hydroxy-13-oxotridec-11-enoate ester of 2-lysophosphatidylcholine

A total synthesis of (11E)-9-hydroxy-13-oxotridec-11-enoate ester of 2-lysophosphatidylcholine (HOT-PC) was devised to facilitate identification of this oxidized phospholipid. A lactone, 8-(3-oxo-1H,6H-2-oxinyl)octanoic acid (1), believed to be generated through an intermediate (11E)-9-hydroxy-13-oxotridec-11-enoic acid (HOT), is produced upon autoxidation of linoleic acid. A synthesis of lactone 1 methyl ester was accomplished from HOT involving a novel trans-cis isomerization that is driven to completion by cyclization to a hemiacetal. An alternative route to this carbon skeleton was also achieved that provides the lactone 1 itself.     

1,2-silyl-migrative cyclization of vinylsilanes bearing a hydroxy group: stereoselective synthesis of multisubstituted tetrahydropyrans and tetrahydrofurans(1)

Acid-catalyzed intramolecular addition of a hydroxy group to alpha-alkylated vinylsilanes has been studied. Treatment of (Z)-5-alkyl-5-silyl-4-penten-1-ols 1 (R = alkyl) with 5 mol % TiCl(4) in CHCl(3) gave trans-2-alkyl-3-silyltetrahydropyrans 2 exclusively (trans/cis = >99/1 to 97/3). The cyclization efficiency and rate strongly depended on the geometry of the C-C double bond and the silyl group. The use of (E)-vinylsilanes resulted in lower yields with poor cis-selectivity. In the cyclization of (Z)-1 (R = Bu), the silyl group used, the reaction time, and the yield of 2 were as follows: SiMe(2)Ph, 9.5 h, 75%; SiMe(3), 7.5 h, 66%; SiMePh(2), 24 h, 58%; SiMe(2)-t-Bu, 0.75 h, 85%; SiMe(2)Bn, 1.5 h, 78%. This 1,2-silyl-migrative cyclization could be applied to stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted tetrahydropyrans. The acid-catalyzed reaction of 1-, 2-, or 3-substituted (Z)-5-silyl-4-nonen-1-ols 8 gave r-2,t-3,c-6-, r-2,t-3,t-5-, or r-2,t-3,c-4-trisubstituted tetrahydropyrans with high diastereoselectivity, respectively. (Z)-4-Alkyl-4-silyl-3-buten-1-ols 5 as well as 1 underwent the 1,2-silyl-migrative cyclization to give 2-alkyl-3-silyltetrahydrofurans 6 with high trans-selectivity. This silicon-directed cyclization was also available for the stereoselective synthesis of tri- and tetrasubstituted tetrahydrofurans.
