Novel cleavage reaction of the C16-N17 bond in naltrexone derivatives

A dealkylation reaction of tertiary amines using chloroformate was a useful method for synthesizing morphinan derivatives without 17-substituents; however, the reaction has been applied to only the 14-hydromorphinans. In the course of the investigation of the 17-dealkylation reaction in 14-hydroxymorphinan, the novel cleavage reaction of the C16-N17 bond in the naltrexone derivative was found. A plausible reaction mechanism based on the stereoelectronic effect is presented. The examinations of dealkylation reactions in general tertiary amines ranked the tendency of cleavage as follows: benzyl > cyclopropylmethyl (CPM) ≈ allyl > methyl, ethyl. The preferable cleavage of the CPM group may be explained by the polarization of CPM-N17 bond due to a postulation of extreme stability of the cyclopropylcarbinyl cation.

Expanding the Scope of Arylsulfonylacetylenes as Alkynylating Reagents and Mechanistic Insights in the Formation of Csp2?Csp and Csp3?Csp Bonds from Organolithiums

We describe the unexpected behavior of the arylsulfonylacetylenes, which suffer an “anti‐Michael” addition of organolithiums producing their alkynylation under very mild conditions. The broad scope, excellent yields, and simplicity of the experimental procedure are the main features of this methodology. A rational explanation of all these results can be achieved by theoretical calculations, which suggest that the association of the organolithiums to the electrophile is a previous step of their intramolecular attack and is responsible for the unexpected “anti‐Michael” reactions observed for substituted sulfonylacetylenes.
