Abstract: | Cycloadditions of arylidene imines of α-amino acid esters to a range of dipolarophiles show substantial rate enhancements in the presence of Bronsted and Lewis acids. For Bronsted acids the rate is related to the pKa of the acid and cycloadditions to reactive dipolarophiles occur at room temperature. For the Lewis acids studied the rate acceleration decreases in the order Zn(OAc)2 > AgOAc> LiOAc> MgOAc2 but is also anion dependent with LiBr> LiOAc and AgOAc> AgOTs. The Lewis acid catalysed processes are believed to be examples of cycloadditions of metallo-1,3-dipoles. In both Bronsted and Lewis acid catalysed processes the cycloadditions are regio- and stereo-specific. |
