Abstract: | A broad range of functionalized 5-alkylidenecyclopentene derivatives are synthesized by the rhodium(I)-catalyzed 3+2]-cyclization reaction of chromium alkenyl(methoxy)carbene complexes 1 and activated allenes. Thus, amidocyclopentenes 4a-n are readily available from N-allenylamides 2a-c, while phenoxyallene 2e gives access to phenoxycyclopentenes 6. In turn, the cyclization reaction with (alkoxycarbonyl)allenes 3 leads to (alkoxycarbonyl)methylidenecyclopentenes 7-10. In terms of selectivity, most cyclization reactions take place with complete chemo-, regio-, and diastereoselectivity. Representative cycloadducts are efficiently hydrolyzed to the corresponding 2-alkylidenecyclopentanones 11a-e without tautomerization or isomerization. Finally, a tentative reaction pathway is proposed that involves the rhodium(I) carbene complexes as the species responsible for the 3+2]-cyclization. |
