Cyclic enol ether

Shibata successfully adapted the asymmetric transfer fluorination to cyclic silyl enol ethers, cyclic allyl silanes and oxindoles, illustrated in Schemes 13.1-13.3, as a catalytic method (Scheme 13.6) [16]. Similar reaction conditions were identified for all three substrates, including the use of stoichiometric NFSI as the electrophilic fluorine source and a stoichiometric inorganic base additive. It was observed that bis-Cinchona alkaloid (DHQ)2PHAL was best for cyclic silyl enol ethers (X = 0), (DHQ)2PYR (Scheme 13.2) was best for cyclic allyl silanes (X = CH2), while (DHQD)2AQN was best for oxindoles. A similar method was applied to cyclic enol ethers, providing products in modest ee s [17]. [Pg.469]

The oxidation of the cyclic enol ether 93 in MeOH affords the methyl ester 95 by hydrolysis of the ketene acetal 94 formed initially by regioselective attack of the methoxy group at the anomeric carbon, rather than the a-alkoxy ketone[35]. Similarly, the double bond of the furan part in khellin (96) is converted ino the ester 98 via the ketene acetal 97[l23],... [Pg.34]

Addition of a hydroxy group to alkynes to form enol ethers is possible with Pd(II). Enol ether formation and its hydrolysis mean the hydration of alkynes to ketones. The 5-hydroxyalkyne 249 was converted into the cyclic enol ether 250[124], Stereoselective enol ether formation was applied to the synthesis of prostacyclin[131]. Treatment of the 4-alkynol 251 with a stoichiometric amount of PdCl2, followed by hydrogenolysis with formic acid, gives the cyclic enol ether 253. Alkoxypalladation to give 252 is trans addition, because the Z E ratio of the alkene 253 was 33 1. [Pg.500]

The cyclic enol ether 255 from the functionalized 3-alkynoI 254 was converted into the furans 256 by the reaction of allyl chloride, and 257 by elimination of MeOH[132], The alkynes 258 and 260, which have two hydroxy groups at suitable positions, are converted into the cyclic acetals 259 and 261. Carcogran and frontalin have been prepared by this reaction[124]. [Pg.501]

Alkylation of enamines with epoxides or acetoxybromoalkanes provided intermediates for cyclic enol ethers (668) and branched chain sugars were obtained by enamine alkylation (669). Sodium enolates of vinylogous amides underwent carbon and nitrogen methylation (570), while vicinal endiamines formed bis-quaternary amonium salts (647). Reactions of enamines with a cyclopropenyl cation gave alkylated imonium products (57/), and 2-benzylidene-3-methylbenzothiazoline was shown to undergo enamine alkylation and acylation (572). A cyclic enamine was alkylated with methylbromoacetate and the product reduced with sodium borohydride to the key intermediate in a synthesis of the quebrachamine skeleton (57i). [Pg.357]

The chiral BOX-copper(ll) complexes, (S)-21a and (l )-21b (X=OTf, SbFg), were found by Evans et al. to catalyze the enantioselective cycloaddition reactions of the a,/ -unsaturated acyl phosphonates 49 with ethyl vinyl ether 46a and the cyclic enol ethers 50 giving the cycloaddition products 51 and 52, respectively, in very high yields and ee as outlined in Scheme 4.33 [38b]. It is notable that the acyclic and cyclic enol ethers react highly stereoselectively and that the same enantiomer is formed using (S)-21a and (J )-21b as the catalyst. It is, furthermore, of practical importance that the cycloaddition reaction can proceed in the presence of only 0.2 mol% (J )-21a (X=SbF6) with minimal reduction in the yield of the cycloaddition product and no loss of enantioselectivity (93% ee).

Alkyl aryl ethers and enol ethers are also accessible by the Mitsunobu method. Cyclic ethers can be obtained by an intramolecular variant, which is especially suitable for the synthesis of three- to seven-membered rings ... [Pg.206]

Cyclic and acyclic silyl enol ethers can be nitrated with tetranitromethane to give ct-nitro ketones in 64-96% yield fEqs. 2.42 and 2.43. " The mechanism involves the electron transfer from the silyl enol ether to tetranitromethane. A fast homolydc conphng of the resultant cadon radical of silyl enol ether with NO leads tn ct-nitro ketones. Tetranitromethane is a neutral reagent it is commercially available or readdy prepared.

The Lewis acid mediated addition of silyl enol ethers or silylketcne acetals to oc-alkoxyaldehydcs is the most versatile and reliable method of providing chelation control in aldol-type additions3. The stereochemical outcome is as predicted by Cram s cyclic model11 ... [Pg.566]

The six-membered cyclic systems shown in Table 2 give the anti-SN2 products in high yields upon treatment with alkylcyanocuprates44,46. Phenylcyanocuprate shows regio- and stereospecificity similar to the alkylcyanocuprates, while vinylcyanocuprate indicates a marked dependence on the substitution pattern of the epoxy enol ether system463. A methyl substituent on C-3 of the ring, cf. 8, causes the formation of the SN2 product 9, while in the absence of such a substituent, cf. 10, the SN2 product 11 is formed. In both cases, phenylcuprate yields the Sn2 products. [Pg.880]

Direct treatment of TIPS enol ethers of a variety of cyclic and acyclic ketones with the strong-base combination of n-BuLi/KO-t-Bu leads to /3-ketosilanes (2) after aqueous work-up. In contrast with the earlier method, this rearrangement appears to proceed through allylic, rather than vinylic, metallation, since enol ethers lacking an allylic a-proton are unreactive. [Pg.133]

The addition of sulphinyl chlorides to trimethylsilyl enol ether 138 affording a-ketosulphoxides 139 (equation 76) represents an extension of the reaction of sulphinyl chlorides with ketones. This reaction has attracted attention only recently. Sergeev and coworkers192 reported that treatment of sulphinyl chlorides with acyclic enol ethers afforded a-ketosulphoxides 139 in good to excellent yields. Meanwell and Johnson193 observed that in the case of cyclic enol ethers the corresponding sulphoxides were formed only in very low yields. They found, however, that the introduction of an equivalent amount of a Lewis acid into the reaction mixture markedly promotes the desired reaction, whereas the use of catalytic amounts of a Lewis acid led to a substantial reduction in the yield. This is most probably due to the formation of a complex, between the a-ketosulphoxide and the Lewis acid. [Pg.267]

Clark s group also reported on ring-closing enyne metathesis for the preparation of six- and seven-membered cyclic enol ethers 428 n= 1,2) as potential building blocks for the synthesis of marine polyether natural compounds such as brevetoxins and ciguatoxins. Metathesis products 428 were obtained from ene-ynes 427 in 72-98% yield when the NHC-bearing catalyst C was used (Scheme 84) [179]. [Pg.350]

Note 1. The term glycal is a non-preferred, trivial name for cyclic enol ether derivatives of sugars having a double bond between carbon atoms 1 and 2 of the ring. It should not be used or modified as a class name for monosaccharide derivatives having a double bond in any other position. [Pg.92]

Cycloalkenones and/or their derivatives can also behave as dienic partners in the Diels-Alder cycloaddition. It is well documented [41] that cyclic acetals, for example, can interconvert with ring-opened enol ether forms, in a reversible manner the latter compounds can then be trapped by various dienophiles. Thus dienes 119 and 120 reacted with [60]-fullerene (Ceo) at high pressure, affording highly thermally stable products [42] (Scheme 5.16). Ketones 123 and 124 could be directly obtained by cycloaddition of enol forms 121 and 122 of 2-cyclopen-ten-and 2-cyclohexen-l-one, respectively. [Pg.224]

This procedure illustrates a new three-step reaction sequence for the one-carbon ring expansion of cyclic ketones to the homologous tt,/3-unsaturated ketones. The key step in the sequence is the iron(III) chloride-induced cleavage of the central bond of trimethyl-silyloxycyclopropanes which me obtained by cyclopropanation of trimethylsilyl enol ethers. The procedure for the preparation of 1-trimethylsilyloxycyclohexene from cyclohexanone described in Part A is that of House, Czuba, Gall, and Olmstead. ... [Pg.60]
