Abstract: | alpha-Alkylidene-gamma-butyrolactones are readily prepared by the palladium-catalyzed heteroannulation of a variety of 1,3-dienes by alpha-iodo and alpha-bromo acrylic acids. The best results are obtained by employing a catalytic amount of the sterically hindered chelating alkyl phosphine D-t-BPF (di-tert-butylphosphino)ferrocene]. In most cases, this process is highly regioselective. The reaction is believed to proceed via (1) oxidative addition of the vinylic halide to Pd(0), (2) organopalladium addition to the less hindered end of the 1,3-diene to form a pi-allylpalladium intermediate, and (3) nucleophilic displacement of the palladium by the carboxylate ion. |
