Cyclopropane, dihydropyrrole, and azepane ring systems were synthesized conveniently from sulfinate-tethered triazoles. The divergent synthetic strategy started with the unique 1,3-sulfinate migration of an α-imino carbene. The efficient reaction allowed control of the zwitterion bearing multiple reactive sites depending on the increased stability of the resulting carbocation and anion. The sulfinate was converted to a sulfone after the group migration, and a stable anion bearing two electron-withdrawing groups was thus formed. Catalytic amounts of iodide acted as a switch for the synthesis of cyclopropanes and dihydropyrroles. The reaction merits including readily available substrates, mild reaction conditions, and excellent functional group compatibility qualified this protocol a possible synthetic tool for cyclic compounds, especially for N-heterocycles. 相似文献
Catalytic addition of chiral phosphine, that is, (R)‐ or (S)‐SITCP, to an α‐substituted allene ester generated a zwitterionic dipole. Under optimized reaction conditions, this dipole could engage isatine‐derived N‐Boc‐ketimines in a novel mode of [3+2] annulation reaction. Pyrrolinyl spirooxindoles are thus afforded in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities. The unprecedented annulation reaction successfully facilitated the construction of sp3‐rich and highly substituted 3,2′‐pyrrolidinyl spirooxindoles supporting many chiral centers. 相似文献
A detailed study of the thermal decomposition of the zwitterionic, ring-borylated ansa-chromocene hydrido carbonyl complex [Cr(CO)H{Me(4)C(2)(C(5)H(4))[C(5)H(3)B(C(6)F(5))(3)]}] (2) is described. This complex is formed in the reaction between [Cr(CO){Me(4)C(2)(C(5)H(4))(2)}] (1) and B(C(6)F(5))(3) in toluene at -78 degrees C. Above -25 degrees C, 2 decomposes to a 50:50 mixture of the low-spin, 17e Cr(III) complexes [Cr(CO){Me(4)C(2)(C(5)H(4))[C(5)H(3)B(C(6)F(5))(3)]}] (3b) and [Cr(CO){Me(4)C(2)(C(5)H(4))(2)}][HB(C(6)F(5))(3)] (4). Carbon monoxide elimination from 3 b generates high-spin, 15 e [Cr{Me(4)C(2)(C(5)H(4))[C(5)H(3)B(C(6)F(5))(3)]}] (3a), which coordinates two other electron-donating ligands, such as xylyl isocyanide, PMe3, and PPh(2)Me to form the low-spin, 17 e electron complexes 3c, 3d, and 3e, respectively. High-spin, 15 e [Cr{Me(4)C(2)(C(5)H(4))(2)}][HB(C(6)F(5))(3)] (5) is generated by heating 3 b in toluene at 100 degrees C and periodically removing the evolved CO. Efforts to isolate more than a few X-ray quality crystals of 5 were thwarted by its tendency to form an insoluble precipitate (6) with the same molecular formula. Heating the solution of 5 at 120 degrees C results in its partial conversion (ca. 28 %) to 3a, thereby allowing the formation of 3a in yields as high as 74 % from the reaction between 1 and B(C(6)F(5))(3). The X-ray crystal structures of 3 b-e and 5 are described. Cyclic voltammetry measurements on 3 a-e reveal a dramatic reduction in the redox potentials of the complexes relative to their non-borylated analogues. DFT calculations show that this is due primarily to electrostatic stabilization of the oxidized species by the negatively charged borylate group. EPR and 19F NMR spectroscopy allow 3a to be distinguished from its Lewis base adducts 3 b-e and reveal the relative affinities of different Lewis bases for the chromium. 相似文献
A new type of intramolecular electrophilic rearrangements involving the shift of COOAlk groups from carbon to an N-anionic
center is considered. Carbanionic species with COOAlk groups at anionic centers containing no acidic hydrogen react unusually
with alkyl(aryl) iso(thio)cyanates giving carbamates as a result of insertion of RNCX into the C−C bond. The kinetics and
mechanism of insertion of aryl isocyanates into the C−C bond of the phosphonium zwitterion obtained from triisopropylphosphine
and ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate are discussed. The reaction of α-carbanions derived fromN,N-disubstituted amides with methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate results inO-methylation. Some possibilities of back N→C− migrations are considered.

A unique strategy for the synthesis of highly stable unusual charge-separated pyridinium-, isoquinolinium-, quinolinium-, and N-methylimidazolium-tetronic acid zwitterions from the reaction of pyridine, isoquinoline, quinoline, and N-methylimidazole with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates and 3-chlorotetronic acid in EtOH at room temperature is described. 相似文献
N, not NHC : A neutral, basic, strong σ‐donor nitrogen ancillary ligand with properties analogous to those of N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) was developed to aid in the oxidative additions of challenging substrates to late transition metals. Selective, room‐temperature C? F bond activation was observed with hexa‐, penta‐, and all three isomers of tetrafluorobenzene using a nickel(0) source in the presence of this donor.
A sterically shielded 3‐substituted zwitterionic N,N‐dimethylisotryptammonium carboxylate has been synthesized by consecutive chemoselective double alkylation of indole. The carboxylate undergoes a quantitative and unusually facile decarboxylation in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or dimethyl formamide (DMF) at room temperature. The breaking of a nearly equidistant hydrogen bond by solvent molecules initiates heterolytic C? C cleavage. The decarboxylation rate decreases with increasing CO2 partial pressure, proving the competitiveness of protonation and re‐carboxylation of the carbanionic intermediate. Corresponding spiro compounds containing silylene and stannylene moieties show high thermal stability. Addition of an excess of methyllithium to the sodium salt triggers a reaction sequence comprising a deprotonation, carboxylate transfer, and nucleophilic trapping of the rearranged carboxylate by another equivalent of methyllithium. Hydrolytic work‐up of the geminal diolate leads to an acetyl product. The role of the sodium counterion and the mechanism of the rearrangement have been unraveled by deuteration experiments. 相似文献
There are strings attached: after linking the reacting groups to head groups of ionic liquids to drastically lower the vapour pressures of the reactants, ordinary liquid-phase organic reactions can be monitored by in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. This approach is demonstrated for the nucleophilic substitution of an alkyl amine and an alkyl chloride moiety, which are attached to the cation and anion of ionic liquids, respectively. 相似文献
