Aldehydes effects

Entries 13 to 15 are examples of high-yield cyclizations of aldehydes effected by CH3A1C12. 

Methyl-2-pentenal was oxidised to the acid in a process involving addition over a period into a mixture of acetic acid and sodium dichromate at 50°C. Addition of the aldehyde, effected by sucking it into the reactor by application of vacuum, was entrusted to an inexperienced operator, but was apparently too fast and the exotherm led to a runaway and eruption of the reactor contents. 

Nevertheless, the nature and function of this cofactor will have to be clarified by further investigations. It is possible that this problem is involved in the way by which the energy for reduction is provided, whether NADH2 or NADPH2 is oxidized by the action of MHbR (cf. G5, R12, S10, Sll, S17). This may be implicated in the results showing the enhancement of MHb reduction by aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes effected by a NAD-linked aldehyde dehydrogenase (M9, M10). 

If die enolate nucleophile is derived from an aldehyde or ketone different than die carbonyl electrophile, a crossed-aldol condensation results. Normally best success is achieved if the carbonyl electrophile employed for the crossed-aldol condensation is more reactive than the carbonyl electrophile from which the enolate is derived. For example, ketone etiolates react with aldehydes effectively, but aldehyde enolates do not give the crossed aldol with most ketones but self-condense instead.

The observations illustrated in Scheme 3.3.5 were complimented, in the same report, by the demonstration of the utility of 2-phenylsulfide activated glycals as C-glycosidation substrates. As shown in Scheme 3.3.6, 2-phenylsulfide substituted glycals were easily prepared on treatment with DBU and chlorophenylsulfide. Subsequent metallations were then accomplished utilizing tert-butyllithium and LDA. Treatment of the anionic species with a variety of aldehydes effected the formation of various C-glycosides.

The ability of chiral binaphthol (BINOL) derivatives as a Br0nsted acid catalyst to facilitate asymmetric transformations was demonstrated by Schaus by the development of the highly enantioselective Morita-Baylis-Hilhnan reaction of cyclohex-enone with aldehydes effectively catalyzed by (R)-octahydro-l,l -bi-2-naphthol derivatives, bearing either 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl (24a) or 3,5-xylyl (24b) groups at the 3,3 -positions, in combined use with triethylphosphine as a nucleophilic promoter (Scheme 7.43) [68].
